I don’t know what part you were in but it sucks here I literally struggle everyday and starve people are miserable you can’t keep crackheads from stealing from you there’s little work for someone with no diploma it’s just horrible here
If AEP Power had made the next film in Columbus 2020, look at how much Columbus and surrounding communities throughout Central Ohio has changed from 1980 thru 2020: the NHL's Columbus Blue Jackets play their games at the Nationwide Arena in Columbus' Arena District; they've been in existance since fall 2000 and the MLS' Columbus Crew SC play their home matches at Mapfre Stadium just off I-71; they've been in existance since 1996.
Columbus is a very different place in 2020 than in 1980. Even compared to 2000 or 2010 Columbus has come a long way. I still think it's a hard sell to get people to relocate from NYC to anywhere in the midwest.
That was back when you could run free as a kid . Everyone one was friendly mostly because they were from Kentucky and West Virginia. It sure has Changed.
@@kcapkcans Lol she was really serious about tomatoes! However, I would have never thought that Reynoldsburg was the birth place of the tomato. Im sure she told everyone in NY that as well
@@nathanielunderwood6277 I remember working at Dick Blick out there and there was a woman who told me all about how Reynoldsburg was the "birthplace" of the tomato. I wonder if it was the same lady, and if not, how many of these tomato obsessives are there?
in 1980 Columbus sucked. we moved to Atlanta in 1980 because there were no jobs in Columbus. I moved back in 1992 and Morse rd and 161 was a goddam ghetto

Hilarious that they kept framing shots to make sure that the Columbia Gas building wasn't in shot. :-) Columbus is a great city to live in. If you don't like it, feel free to leave... but you won't find better. Seems like most of the people who hate Columbus are just expressing their self hatred and they won't be happy anywhere they go until they get right with themselves... (And yes, we have a lot of people from a lot of different places, from a lot of different cultures. It is really nice, and it makes our community better. It is something you'll like, if you're not a racist asshole. If you are a racist asshole, go someplace else- you won't like it here, and we won't like you here.)
You could have said something like "Columbus needs a more robust public transit system" or "the local governments of Columbus, particularly the police departments, have systematic issues with violence and racism which should be addressed". Perhaps even "Columbus needs to work on developing more high end jobs to keep more of the graduates from it's many institutions of higher learning". Or "Columbus needs more art venues". You know what these are? Constructive comments that lead to more discussion; and ideas about how to make Columbus better. Instead, you attacked me. That just leads to me calling you names and hating you. Why should I be tolerant of people who are like the racists and haters who I called out, and people who attack me? Why should I care at all about what you say? Hint: you haven't give me a reason to; and I don't.
@@projectjake1017 Weird. You clicked on a four month old comment on a years old video to tell me how much you don't care. Which, of course, means you are a goddamned fucking liar. If you really didn't care, you wouldn't have said anything. Leads me to believe you hate Columbus, probably because you hate yourself. I would highly recommend that you consider going and finding someplace you like, and spending your time and energy worrying about that. People who are good about themselves and are in a good place with themselves emotionally cultivate the good in their life.
@@allent9433 IT WOULD BE NICE to be able to go into ALL Columbus neighborhoods without being robbed in daylight or stepping on needles and condoms. Also would be nice if there were less crime/drugs/gangs/murder --it is ONLY nice if you can afford the suburbs and not Columbus proper.
I grew up and lived in Columbus from 1979 to 2008. Its a great city. Great place to grow up.
I agree 2003-2019
It was not anymore
Columbus sucks

@@BatesAutomotive it was a different place in the 80s and 90s.
I feel old now I was born in 1982 in Columbus Ohio I remember a lot of this stuff
Even pete whites hairline? 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I was born in 1980 in CBus. I also remember a lot of this stuff and also feel old, lol.
I was born in August 1982 in Ohio . Thinking about moving to columbus .

I grew up in Columbus during this era. I’d love to use this footage for a documentary
This was the year i was born as well as city
Been here for almost 66 years...
Bring back those housing prices!
That lady really loves tomatoes
LOL!
@@nathanielunderwood6277 she's like a tomato coyote, smuggling tomatoes to Midnight Cowboy era NYC

@@kcapkcans I hope there are more she just got me pretty excited about tomatoes. I didnt know there was a Blick on the east side?
Ironic that I stumbled on this today, when our 2024 tax bills are distributed. Taxes back then averaged $600 a year!
This is great!
Hey New Yorkers, at least CBus has Bloomingdales and discos!!!!
It looked like a great place but it don’t look like that no mo no peace
Music feels 60sish
Not anymore...sad
in 1980 Columbus sucked.

You don't lie! I moved to C'bus Ohio in '94. Was there until '99. I've been bck for visits & 161/Morse road is a cesspool of the great unwashed
Morse Road and 161 are filled with tons of Africans. Almost all of the restaurants are Somalian, Nigerian/Ghana or Ethiopian.
Left in 2000 & went back in 2012 & the whole place changed
@@catherinemcclelland7664
Too bad it’s changed and too many out of staters and people moved into Columbus. Cowtown needs to come back-

Right, the older nice polite people are dying off. Now rude people moving in from Cleveland, Detroit, Chicago, New York
So many racist/xenophobic comments on this video. Sad.
Exactly
