21. Forget Ashland!

Despite it's progressive patina and touristy glitz, Ashland is still a snarky, backstabbing, old-boys network, small town. Where else could the brother of the biggest company in the County's CEO become mayor for several terms, and be one of the biggest property owners in the county? Several years ago, Jackson county was the stronghold of the Oregon chapter of the Klan. After having lived there for 5 years, I can testify that, while the sheets and cross burnings have gone underground, the prevailing attitude hasn't.
