Hazelton?

I'm sorry, but who the fuck would want to move there anyway? It's five stops past Bumfuck in the Kentucky part of Pennsyltucky. And I'm sorry again, but the quality of life in Hazelton has fallen because it has a rust-belt mindset in an Internet world, as evidenced by its xenophobic scapegoating of people who probably work harder in a day than any of them peckerwoods there do in a month.

Apologies, but I'm not feeling kindly disposed today toward the red-staters in our midst.

Town strengthens illegal immigration law | US News | Reuters.com

HAZLETON, Pennsylvania (Reuters) - Officials in the Pennsylvania town of Hazleton on Friday strengthened a local law designed to drive illegal immigrants away in a bid to defend the measure against legal challenges.

Hazleton City Council passed a new version of the Illegal Immigration Relief Act, an ordinance first passed in July that was already one of the toughest anti-illegal immigrant laws in the country. It has since been copied by other cities where illegal immigration is blamed for rising crime and overburdened social services.

The new law, approved by a vote of 4-1, increases pressure on local employers to avoid hiring illegal immigrants and raises fines for landlords who rent rooms to them.
