Wilkes-Barre 

A dump town named after two memebers of the french parliament, John Wilkes and Isaac Barre. And guess what, they never set foot in America. What was once a sprwaling metropolis of 25,000 people, is now a town being overrun by old people, funeral homes, and ghetto drug dealers. Every-where you look, there's a funeral home in some fancy old house and down the road, you'll see another drug deal or shooting taking place. Another thing Wilkes-Barre prides itself in, having the most amount of potholes and closed bridges, and the most run-down and dumpy downtown ever. Main attractions? The yet to be built movie theater..stanton lanes and never forget..Skateaway!!

Come join the fun!!
Well..how bout a garbage dump?

Wilkes-Barre 

City which wishes it was Scranton. Still bragging (can't imagine why) about a stupid flood that happened 32 years ago. Likely to see people dressed like the year is 1983.
At least I'm not from Wilkes-Barre

wilkes-barre 

a city small area but population of about 50,000. home, puerto ricans, jamaicans, sonic as public schools are known for combining at the moment, but next week something else will happen i’m sure. 50% new yorkers who live here only half the time. if you come to wilkes barre from brooklyn thinking youve “made it out the hood” i have bad news for you. and especially avoid walmart. the walmart - and the little mini-mall around it- have had a lot of shooting incidents and there’s always a drug deal going. now let’s talk .. how we talk. locals will mostly call this place “WB” when texting, but irl you pronounce is “WILKES-BERRY”. Trust. any local will tell you that. common slang words include jawn, oldhead, drawlin, ard, bet, word to (anything), trippin, blessed, pop out.. just your usual philly/new york slang mixed together. “ghetto” city, but as long as you curse a lot, smoke, wilkes-barre doesn’t have the best history - known for being ghetto and two unfortunate natural disaster incidents with a tornado wiping out an entire mall yet leaving a tent standing fine - and a flood wiping out the entire town, ( tents included ) but we’ve recovered. overall you will probably grow to love wilkes barre, but it’s mostly a city you stay in for a short amount of time, not a home city to many people.
wilkes-barre is a city but it’s small

Wilkes-Barre 10 

A woman whose ranking of attractiveness is only a 10 in the city of Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, but is comparable to a 5 or 6 in other civilized areas of the world.
Mike: "Hey, Ray! Did you see Nicole yesterday?
Ray: 'Yeah, she's a Wilkes-Barre 10 for sure'

Being fat white trash and tanning under the sun, out front of a busy public street, in 88 degree weather, while stuck to a metal futon out on the side of the curb.
