Driving Around Chicago Hood - "Washington Park" Neighborhood in 4k Video

[@garethrice1266]

Looks like a decent enough hood!

[@nathaliecarrillo2782]

What sucks the most about Washington Park is that there's genuinely a lot of good people who live there. The gang violence needs to stop....poverty will keep you in a hole ...and its always hella hard to get out.

Thanks for the video.

[@JUSAGUYNKY]

Beautiful neighborhood, though! Loved to have seen it back in the day

[@exploreusacities]

Yea I was surprised, was expecting way more abandoned buildings. Everywhere you see an empty lot was probably a broken down house that got bulldozed

[@chaisroom6631]

I really enjoyed that...people are somewhat proud of where they live because it wasn't full of garbage...my husband used to live in that area years ago...

[@qitae]

The buildings are nice I wouldn't have guessed this was dangerous if my gps took me there

[@Gearupp916]

My wife's cousin lives there we walked to the laundry mat ppl were cool with me I'm white but they couldn't understand why I was there lol

[@robertkraljii5048]

Where is everyone?

[@JohnDoe-kx1yt]

This is a murder zone.

[@garethrice1266]

Last year maybe, things aren't so bad at this time as I understand.

Where's the ghetto?

[@tiegeformen]

​@@arguescreamholler Your looking at it. Washington Park has a violent crime rate 700% higher than the National average.

Sure it does,
In the minds of fundamentalist Christian MAGA kkk patriots, and far right mainstream media outlets.
700× ?
One day you'll realize no matter how many lies you tell it will never become facts.

[@exploreusacities]
