What is the nickname of Youngstown, Ohio?
The nickname of Youngstown, Ohio is “Bomb City,” and the phrase “Youngstown tune-up” became a slang term for car-bomb assassination. Today, however, the city has accelerated measures to limit the influence of organized crime upon all sectors of municipal life. For some observers, the climax of this ongoing effort was the arrest, trial, and 2002 conviction of former US United States House of RepresentativesRepresentative James A. Traficant Jr. on bribery and racketeering charges.
