Portsmouth....nice?! Maybe there's some decent urban form, but it's pretty run down and depressed. I worked on a public health project years ago, and Portsmouth is where I learned about the phenomenon of 'Mountain Dew Mouth'. It's when people have their teeth rotted out due to meth and Mt. Dew consumption. Apparently meth makes people crave Mt. Dew, and it creates a terrible cycle for oral health. The public health officials there said it was a huge problem in the Portsmouth area. That's my lasting memory of Portsmouth. That, and the people there talk like they're deep in the hollers of West Virginia. It's a very strange part of Ohio.
