Boring US destination: Cheyenne, Wyoming
Located in one of the dullest and least exciting states in our nation, Cheyenne is considered one of the most uninteresting cities in America. Primarily consisting of a conservative and older population, only 6 people per mile live in this city.
According to locals, the city lacks entertainment and job opportunities. But all that aside, should you visit? We think it looks pretty!
Boring US destination: Indianapolis, Indiana
Indianapolis is one of the top 5 biggest cities in the Midwest and home to the Indy500. So what’s not to love? Apparently, much like a lot of the Midwestern cities, it’s pretty dull.
The capital of Indiana, Indianapolis has one of the most bland downtown areas among big metro cities in the nation, consisting of only a handful of restaurants and bars, and that’s really where the entertainment ends.
In fact, due to the boring atmosphere, the city has gotten a reputation for winning the nickname: “Naptown!”

I’ve lived in Henderson, NV for most of my life and don’t quite know why it’s on this list. My son, his wife and I went for a walk last night in an extremely interesting park/trail in a wash with abundant desert vegetation and amenities such as sports courts, amphitheaters, dog parks etc. Henderson has many urban parks for all sorts of activities including mountain biking and climbing. And, truthfully, you can’t separate it from Las Vegas for entertainment. Of which, Las Vegas calls itself the adult entertainment capital of the World. This fact is arguable, of course, but can be justified.
Dismal Swamp/Chesapeake VA is the ABSOLUTE BEST! You just need to do it by boat. We’ve done it 4 times, and loved every minute! Stop at the Welcome Center and the State Park buildings for cool info. Amazing to find this next to Norfolk VA.
It’s had that name for at least 50 years. I grew up in Kokomo 50 miles due north of Indy and moved to Denver Colorado only to return a few years ago. Culture shock is putting it mildly and not a lot has changed in the 45 or so years I was gone. Being bored isn’t even the worst part, it’s the crappy weather no matter what time of year. It’s humid and hot all summer with 2 weeks of autumn that is nice and then gray and ugly til spring for 6 windy weeks then it rains
We do have a lot of fairs and festivals and car shows though, might be the DIY/craft capital of the nation.lol
