The budget is a mess. The tax system is anti-development.

The police force is understaffed and demoralized. Crime is rampant. The Mayor is a crook. The city council is inept.

It has a hotel that is bleeding the residents dry. The schools are violent, failing and corrupt (by many accounts). A single shopping center in surrounding town dwarfs Trenton's total retail sales. There is no corporate base. A third of Trenton's housing is subsidized. The tax base is shrinking. The city is full of homeless panhandlers. The governor lives elsewhere. People in surrounding towns with a "Trenton" mailing address, use there townships' name as the town they're from. It's dirty, filthy, unsafe and disgusting.

In every way the city is moving backwards.
