Wow first comment! YAY! LOL. Anyway, as to what this song officially means I am not sure but personally it says to me how most societies are very corrupt and it's hard to find a person who isn't(''And what matters ain't the Who's baddest but the Ones who stop you fallin' from your ladder''). Also I think there is a little bit of irony when it says ''This ain't no place for no hero This ain't no place for no better man This ain't no place for no hero To call home.'' Because ironically if all there is are evil or corrupt people, than this makes it the perfect place for a ''Hero to call home'' because a hero is needed.

rather than being ironic, I think the "This ain't no place for a hero" is saying this place is so bad a hero wouldn't even help, or would be taken in by the corruption himself

It could be ironic or he might be saying to beat these 'evil' people he can't be a hero or a 'better' man, he might have to be just as 'evil' to defeat them. A lesser evil can be defeated by a greater one.
