Illinois is an expensive place to live and some of these towns and cities are one of the many reasons why it lands on the worst place to live list. Thanks to Moneyinc.com they put together a list based on crime rates, income, cost of living, lack of activities and things to do, schools, and job opportunities. With all of those key elements taken into place, here are the 20 worst towns in Illinois (Quincy is not on the list).

When thinking about school districts, job opportunities, and safety, you might want to take a peek at this list. Pretty much all of the towns on this list are not in any of those important categories.

If you're thinking about moving anytime soon in the state of Illinois, I would highly suggest not moving to any of these towns. Some may have lots to do but a high crime rate, and some may have family-0frienldy activities but not many job opportunities. Several of these towns fall on the most dangerous place to live list for Illinois. Just make sure you do your research and choose wisely.
