ALHOLK Posted January 25, 2014 Report Share Posted January 25, 2014 Chernobyl? Chernobyl isn't a city it's a nuclear power plant, the city is Pripjat and to my knowledge nobody lives there nowadyas. I suppose it could still be the worst place to live in, at least hypothetically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
