What county do you live in? And how is the Black Experience?
I live in Hampton Roads and everything here is antiquated and have a sort of antebellum energy to it. It has that colonial spirit like Richmond
I live in Harford County
It’s terrible they keep killing each other and they keep raising pits to fight. I don't get it.
@@taildogg2 I love your area!
Where is Charles County ???
I never get tired of seeing my people win.
Good Good!
@@fawnlliebowitz1772 Enemies think that. Christ returns soon after.
Me neither Sis..
I know that's right!
Facts 💯 💯 💯
We went from picking tobacco to owning homes on the same land.
Doing our ancestors proud.
You love to see it!!
Who is “we”?
You werent around in the 1800s
@@allaboutthemurzic my comment made you that upset ? lol
Maryland is a beautiful state and I love the Bowie, Brandywine, and the Upper Marlboro areas, but I never thought of Charles County.
I love the Amish. They know how to have fridges without electricity.
Our parents are in Prince George’s
I like Annapolis and Columbia 😍
Charles County resident and business owner here! 🙌🏾
What are the best cities in the county to raise children?
Each one teach one I love it
And what's your business, so we can patronize? I'm in Brandywine. Nevermind...located you. Are you in the Tricare network?
I am a 30 year resident, and I've seen the change happen before my eyes. I am proud that we continue to progress.
As someone that grew up in Charles County and witnessed the growth I'm proud the see for county being recognized as a place of black excellence.
Great presentation. Now that the state of Maryland has an African American governor, it can potentially be a model of success for African American communities throughout America. Thanks to Black Excellist for highlighting this county.
Governor Wilder is Virginia
@@757CitiesReppa Wes Moore is Maryland.
@ kweli05 someone said “what about Gov. Wilder of NY, remember him?” …that comment seems to have been deleted now though.
@@757CitiesReppa Oh ok. Thanks for clarifying.
Unfortunately Wes Moore isn’t for our people 🤷🏾♂️
I just purchased my home in Charles county back in February and I’m so glad I did. I absolutely love the community and of course my amazing new neighbors! It’s so much more quiet than DC, my hometown.
Thank you for comment. Glad that the relocation is working in your favor.
My fiancee' and I moved here from NC about a year and a half ago. We love it here in the DMV.
You have neighbors? Lol
What's the breakdown of FBA/ADOS residents, Immigrant residents as well as their American born children ?
@@sherrisolomon8673 PG & Charles is largely FBA/ADOS.
Charles county, Maryland, is an example of black gentrification. No liberal paternalism, no giving welfare to make one dependent, no American Dream, just the reality of a tangible black dream. This is for us, let the outsiders play with their narratives of black life while we live the tangible. We earned the way we live! Let's make it contagious! I'm pro-black positivity!
I've been in Charles Co for about 8 years now. I'm glad I made the move as my kids are completing their education. Now if we could just get some real shopping down here it would be great. No Trader Joe's ....no Wegmans etc. Overall I love the county and my local community. Charles Co. does offer a great quality of life.
And they won’t be going down there.
Agreed. Considering Charles county is one of the richest counties in Maryland and highest in taxes it would be a great to bring more healthy and desirable alternatives to Charles county☺️.
We bought our home summer last year. We love it! More money for the buck. 6-7 bedrooms, finished basement, 3 acres long driveway, in-ground pool, no water bill in a prestigious quiet neighborhood in small town called Hughesville (near Waldorf and La Plata) The houses are spaced far apart and there are so many acres of land that we hardly ever see our neighbors ( I loove the privacy)....We have a lot of black excellence in the neighborhood and would love more.
sounds good, the only thing with black neighborhoods is that it lacks economic development
Could y'all cover rural "black counties" across America there's lots of majority black counties across America especially in the deep south, I'm from a 90% black county in central Georgia called. Hancock county Georgia, Sparta is the town. There's also lots of "Land for sale" signs all over the county to buy land for farming or homesites for a getaway from the hustle & bustle of the big city.
Thank you for the suggestion. If we can find enough material this would be a great series.
I ended up there. I ask myself why anyone is still seeking 40acres and a mule. HARD work to own.
What is the area like?
Charles County is rural.
@@laurenxo6503 rural = cheap
The most impressive part the county imo is how so many businesses are getting bought out by us. Gym, Restaurants, Trampoline parks…all black owned. It’s amazing. I think we just need to do some work on our schools but that’s it
I'm From PG county Born and raised!! - Then We moved to Charles County , But Both NOW are Ghetto AF, All the People moved from LG to Charles ! to get away from PG.... I moved to Howard County now, to get away from all that!! Even though this video sounds nice!! I would not move back in PG or Charles!! its not as good as this video says it is... But I like the concept! Largo HS Class of "88"
My family was @ that Juneteenth event on this video. We had a good time. I've live in Waldorf 10 years now & I love it here!
Awesome! We will be doing a video on Waldorf shortly. Thx for watching.
Aayyyyyyee, I was raised in Ft Washington. MD ( PG). & I raised my children in Waldorf (Charles County). That’s why we are sooo fly. Y’all know what it is! Lol that’s dope though. Go MD
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I laughed when she said "leave traffic behind" 😂. My parents live 15min away in Upper Marlboro. On Saturday's, I gotta take back roads through Clinton or wait an extra 45 min in traffic just to get through Brandywine 😂
We purchased a home in Charles County in June!! We enjoy our home & property.
Congrats.
Lots of black dollars out there, still a gap in commercial ownership
As someone who use to live in PG...I gotta admit, i REALLY miss it. Kudos to Charles County for getting on the map. I will say that living now in Anne Arundel...I'm sure it wont be long before we'll be on the map. Alot of black professionals are moving to AA.
I agree. Left Waldorf for AA two years ago and don’t regret it. The traffic was too much for me in Charles County.
DC made all this possible as the FIRST most affluent black city in the country. Before Harlem, LA, Chicago
I live in SW Illinois but my best friend lives in Waldorf. Amidst the dismal conditions we're suffering from across this country, this is very refreshing. Keep excelling, my people!
Thank you for this video! I was in the DMV this past weekend in PG county and I truly felt like it was where I belonged!
The goal should be to escape from PG
Right. You want to move OUT OF PG
@@jamey6236 why escape bowie and national harbor? Charles county had those things?
it gets tiring very quick, the people of PG county have rough attitudes
Just moved to Charles County 5 months ago. Wonderful place. I live in a very peaceful, silent neighborhood with friendly neighbors. I had no idea what to expect initially, but my entire family likes our new home!
Great coverage on rich black counties across America, salute and thanks 💪💯
I live next door to Charles County in Calvert county, one the richest counties in the country, I wish some of those Black folks there would consider moving here...we need more of us🙌🏽
It’s beautiful but toooooo farrrrrrrrr. I’m sorry.
I mean, Dunkirk and Prince Frederick ain't too bad....ha. I'm a little disappointed with the politics there. I get that it's a conservative county but some of the signs I see throughout the county is highly disrespectful. But I do love traveling throughout the county to get away. My daughter goes to private school in St. Mary's County, so, again, not opposed to it. One day, maybe.
Don't worry, they're coming. We are the Borg lol
Calvert County may be in the top 20 but it’s not one of the top wealthiest in the US, it’s not even in the top 5 for the DC area. It’s a nice area but it’s far from being top of the list
Everything that said about black professional and excellence is FACTS! Please don’t move here traffic is trash and only getting worst.
Me and wifey got a house in Orlando this year but we thought about Maryland because of these areas. Kudos ✊🏽
Orlando is a hot destination for African Americans. Pun intended 🙂 But we are working on a video to explain why. Blessings upon you and your new crib.
I hope those successful couples are having a lot of babies.
😂😂 Yes we need to offset the other end of the spectrum
Lived in Charles County for 8 years and see lots of commercialization happening particularly in Waldorf & La Plata pronounced (Play-da). I lived off Bensville Road, which I still believe has the best neighborhoods in the County, including Friendship, Brentwood, etc. I just wish the county can have more neighborhoods akin to some of the more affluent black communities in PG such as Beechtree, Woodmore, Fairwoods, etc. They desperately need that. And perhaps a flagship grocery store (Harris Teeter, Trader Joes, etc.), and shopping, and a better facelift in North Waldorf, especially. But, overall, lots of good black folk in the area. I felt a strong community there and I do miss that
I live in Charles County. Happy I made the move. I enjoy living here.
There are definitely opportunities to improve the county.
1) Public transportation needs to be built out. I see that grants are proposals are being moved, but they need to speed it up.
2) Shopping options need to be improved. More money has moved here and that should let the developers and companies know that people here will spend money for quality.
3) More money needs to be put in the schools and kid activities overall.
4) Crime. No city or county is exempt from crime. But we can improve upon it.
5) Highways. There needs to be more than just Crain highway as a major way in and out of the cities and towns. That traffic situation needs a major fix.
I 100% agree!!!!!
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Yep...Crain and Indian Head Hwys. That's why I moved to Brandywine instead of Waldorf. Crain Hwy used to be much worse! It needs to be widened to 3 lanes all the way to La Plata. The county officials didn't keep match the hwy infrastructure with the housing boom. Metro Transit Green Line extension is long overdue!
American Indians moving back to their rightful land- shout out to Dane Calloway and UB NEWS TV
WAKANDA LIVE and in living color on in Charles County, MD. I am here (in Accokeek, MD) for it! Unity and Love y'all
I live in Gorgeous Prince George’s! And my business warehouse is located in Charles County! 🎉
Good to know. Been putting some serious thought into moving to the DMV.
@ Kay Kay Same Here 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
I love the DMV! I live in Montgomery County.
Do it!!
You wouldn't be disappointed. I'm in Brandywine, MD, which borders Waldorf to the north. I'd be happy to answer any questions.
❤ my sisters live in PG country, I love, love, love this.
Longtime Chalres resident and seen it change over the past 20 years with a lot more coffee in the cream. However, once you get past LaPlata there is not much left of Charles. Most of the population in concentrated in just a few area and the rest is pretty rural and not that populated. think many of the Whites left are leaving for Calvert and St Mary's. Just wish parents did a better job with raising their children.
I really hope the positive, educated and business minded blacks populate
Thanks for the informative content/update!
This is interesting. As I grew up in DC and lived in Montgomery county, I would’ve never thought of Prince Georges, or now, Saint Charles County, where my parents moved to as a rich area. But haven’t traveled across the country everywhere else,… 😵💫 I now understand.
Keep moving em further and further away from the city. smdh We need to buy the city back up.
I feel your sentiments. Part of the problem black homeowners sold their properties in the city and moved to PG & Charles Country🤷🏽♀️ They will never be able either to afford to move back in the city. That house they sold for $200-300k+ 15 years ago is worth over a million now thanks to gentrification. I could go on. But,I feel you.
Amen.....Mayor Williams started the BS, then ppl ran to the sticks. City life ain't for everyone, and suburban living ain't bad. To each it's own. Ppl going down CC paying $500k+ for housing and ur kids school is subpar. I know ppl who live down there and their kids go to school in DC, Northern PG or Private school? I can't sit on 5, 228 or 210 for three hours a day. And if I visit anyone down there I wait til sunset cause that traffic is outrageous. My gmom moved to Clinton from Largo in 78 from BK Miller down to the Cheltenham circle it's growing.......
Sounds about right, it has to do more with the schools than PG County. As affluent as PG County is in regards to high income and home ownership among African Americans, crime is terrible and so are the schools.
Very inspiring and motivating 👏🏿
I approve this Message! B1✊🏿
My mom relocated our family to Charles County in 2001, while I was in college. She bought a relatively small town home here for less than 100K. With all the growth in the area over the last 20+ years… that same home is worth 400K now. It’s amazing to have witnessed the growth here.
great video I learned a lot today
I just moved from there. There’s heavy crime in CC and same with PG County. CC has changed a lot. It was once predominantly white, but now it’s majority Black with a close percentage of whites. Which I love seeing us. I don’t know of any art galleries, the mall isn’t that great, and it’s okay. You can find an affordable home. I can answer any questions anyone has.
Average home price?
Are the women 'boss chicks?'
@@vgfixjjhfhlllkjhhhhgghhggg any county on the western shore of MD is a dump
@@paperboipwaters7005 name the counties
@@Ricocase The average home price is around $400k+ for new construction. There are some slightly lower for pre existing. I don’t know what you mean by are WE “boss chicks”. I don’t know what you mean by that, but you attract who you target and attract.
Ain't no crimes in CC stop. Suburban knights kill me. PG n DC ok yea
Glad I moved away from that area to a lower crime, lower taxed, and conservative area… you people can have it… Florida is beautiful…
We have to go back to being kings and queens
Christ is king
Chuck County is very nice but just for situational awareness as stated it is much smaller than Prince George’s county and Chuck County only has just under 170k total residents compared to over 980k total residents that Prince George’s county has. But again both super dope Black areas in my opinion. Hopefully 🤞🏾the black citizens of these areas and others like this in similar successful majority black areas throughout the country can start “jointly” moving forward business wise, economically wise and politically to sustain and grow our success and to assist our less fortunate brothers and sisters in getting them to the next class level. Am I my brothers/sisters keeper? Yes I am 🤜🏾👊🏾✊🏾🤛🏾
I live in Ohio, but I want out. I do not want to move to the south. I would love to move to MD.
Maryland is a Black Mecca. Do your homework and I’m sure you will find some great candidate cities.
Is Maryland the south?
@@wendellbatts2477 yes below the Mason Dixon line
No it’s definitely not the south it’s colder here
Come to MD. You're welcome!
Love this is so good . Love seeing us do good, we need more of this.
I love the state of Georgia and I'm moving down to the state of Georgia. They have a large black population large concentration of black businesses. and good for black families.
👍🏾✊🏾
Come on down
Go for it bro just 👀 been in SC for 5 years it's cool but it's still the south.
I want to move here when im rich! Tired of Chicago! To much crime and violence!
Great video. The DMV has always been a great place to live.
This is not new. It's always been like this. My uncle who is African American and the Vice President of a marketing firm lives there.
Dis the crib ya'll!! Much love from San Antonio Texas!!😍
I’m currently applying to a job in Charles County
Good luck!! 🔥
That’s inner city money D.C money
Apply for a job in DC and commute from Charles County. The pay is higher.
This is the real culture
I enjoyed your content. Thanks for sharing! 👍🏾
The money is still in PG County as a lot of Black people moved and are still moving to Charles County and other parts of Southern Maryland because they can no longer afford to live in PG County. Real estate in Bowie, Upper Marlboro, Fort Washington and Laurel is still predominantly Black owned.
This is so inspiring
Good Morning all, what are the best communities? I currently own in Alexandria but I want a larger home and I'm considering moving to Waldorf. How is Pine Groove estates?
Great Job BE
$104,000 that's it...wow...I'm coming to check it out
Honestly living in the DMV Charles County really isn’t considered a black county… I mean we there but barely. PG still has it
Still a big win for the richest state of Maryland by having the two top richest black counties in America...🤔
that's nice , wish I would've known this when I was younger...
What are marriage rates compared to national average. That will determine how sustainable the community will be. If you don't have the answer don't respond to my comment.
Can you explain what marriage has to do with creating a sustainable community? 🤔
This is where I’d love to raise a family❤❤
Thanks! for posting this video. I love seeing our black Americans intelligent people live in communities that safe and family oriented and love seeing growing black Americans communities prosper hear in the United States. Praise God!!! 🙏🙏
yeahhh Charles County!! let's goo, Maryland! *waves from Moco*
My new goal! Thank you for inspiring us
Wow, this is so inspiring 👏🏽 i need to see how i can make that happen in ohio
If we don’t own the land it ain’t ours no matter how much income these families got.
You have land?
@@CA-pp5nx no
Purchasing land would be a viable step for those wealthy enough to do so. This would create a residual economic boom that could last for generations to come. Imagine a sports franchise or large retailer wanting to build on your land.
And the shopping centers, grocery stores, banks, etc!
I love this! They can never hold us down! Beautiful
Yes!!! I love it here🥰🥰
Great video!!
Very import document black wealth and achievement. Awesome video.
No public transport to the city like pg and Montgomery
My folks live in that area
I grew up in Charles county , my family still resides in Waldorf. The area has grown so much . S/o to Thomas stone high school ❤
I love seeing this.
The commute down route 7, and 210 to 228 not worth it!! Charles County and all the projects that are closing in DC are sending their folks down there to live... no thank you!!
nice to know
Baldwin Long Island in New York would be a great place to cover
❤❤❤🎉🎉love this channel
Good!! Hopefully, PG County will stop taxes us so much!!! After 16 years, it is my dream to move out of PG County one day.
What's keeping you from leaving
As far as the schools system, Im so elated that children are taught Critical Thinking, which is very important in this day and age. Awesome.
Seems like a nice place to move with my family
I have online businesses i advertise. How can i advertise in Charles Country and let people know about my Home Based Businesses? Paul
Beautiful!
I have family there… and going to keep it real.. there are not enough healthy restaurants and grocery stores.. traffic is terrible as there only 2 ways out 301 and 210.. then there is crime check the SMd paper.. most residents there migrated from PG and DC county area and so came the problems from those areas.. I use to live there 11 years ago as well.. Now health care is also terrible especially Laplata hospital..do your research…Also the mall there is dead.. so most residents leave to go to elsewhere.. Also it’s pronounced La Play Tah…
So, where are they moving to?
@@pharoah1200 Large numbers of Charles County retirees going to Myrtle Beach SC, coastal NC, to Florida, or to southern Delaware. Others to other neighboring counties in Southern Maryland or Fredericksburg VA.
Don’t forget London Kae Salon: A Paul Mitchell Focus salon owned by an amazing black woman.
I like the video! We appreciate it.
I just sold my house in Charles County🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️
Why did you sell it?
Yes indeed, PG and Charles County, Maryland❣️
I want to visit now.
I moved to Charles County this past July and I love living down here. I grew up in PG County, but Charles County is great!
