Thanks for showcasing the fun you enjoyed. Yes, Pueblo has it's area of improvements. To be honest just about every city is facing similar issues with people not wanting to work, homelessness becoming a lifestyle choice etc. If you're not involved with negative people the majority time it's safe and has plenty to offer from museums, performances to outdoor recreation. ALL at a more affordable cost of living and with less traffic.
@@juliejensen7370 now days people are choosing to be homeless bc they don't want to conform to societal norms, some people are choosing because it presents a freedom that being tied to a mortgage prevents. In terms of living wage people get paid for a skill. If an individual wants to make money then they need to increase their skill set. Also, currently a minimal wage job is paying $16-22 an hour. Pueblo's current homeless shelter usually on average has 1/3 of the bed open bc people don't want to confirm to their rules. Therefore, choosing not to conform by choice. Again there are always anomalies to every situation, yes I painted with a broad brush.
Maybe you're not finished with the neighborhoods, but I would also suggest the following: El Camino, Aberdeen, Historic Southside, Regency, Ventana under developement Villa Bella to finish out the higher end neighborhoods. For middle class (what's left of it) I would show: Sunset Park, Briarwood Park(South High to Emilia Street up to Pueblo Blvd.), Lake Minnequa Area, University Park, Highland Park.
@@jogger1987 I'm still working it. I think it will take me a better part of this next year to get to all of them. University Park is actually my next one to film :)
Very good list actually. I dont know if you can mention private owned places but there is the Mesa Drive In Theater- not too many drive ins still around. And the Sangre de Cristo Arts & Conference Center, its another museum, Buell Children Museum is associated but they have a planetarium. Lots of old shops on the river walk- nature trails, but thats were it ends- lots of tent camps and druggies. Its not cheap to live here anymore and people just stopped caring.
You left out the one thing that EVERYBODY should remember Pueblo for: "Consumer Information Catalog, Pueblo, Colorado, 81009" (which sadly ceased publication in September 2016 - gone but not forgotten)
Hello! Loved the video! Right after you show the map at the beginning of the video, there's a town shown (with flags and a hill in the distance). I am curious where that is? Thanks so much.
Pueblo County, CO Unemployment Rate is at 4.40%, compared to 3.90% last month and 4.20% last year. This is lower than the long term average of 6.69%. With a crime rate of 70 per one thousand residents, Pueblo has one of the highest crime rates in America compared to all communities of all sizes - from the smallest towns to the very largest cities. One's chance of becoming a victim of either violent or property crime here is one in 14. In 2019, Pueblo had the third-largest share of people experiencing homelessness in Colorado's non-metro counties with 15%. Only Larimer and Mesa counties had higher shares at 22% and 16%, respectively.
@Blazed The incredibly high crime and homeless rate, the entire town being in complete disrepair, lack of any good schools, and anyone in the leadership positions are incompetant.
I'm moving here next year from Washington, I have tons of anxiety about it. But I can't change the inevitable. If anyone has good information about living there, I'd be glad.
Don't do it!!!!!! Please !!! You will regret it !!! I was born and raised in Pueblo and it is very very dangerous. You will hear gun shots on a daily, I promise you that!! there is drugs on EVERY CORNER!!! Cho Mos on EVERY CORNER!!!! Those who you think you can trust WILL BETRAY YOU !! If you are thinking of moving to a nice place Please Please check out the state of Missouri, St. Peters and O'Fallen is very nice and all stores are at the tip of your fingers, the people are very nice and will not betray you, the fast foods are nice too not like Pueblo, Co fast foods where they treat you like crap. oh and there are Panhandlers on EVERY CORNER
I live near pueblo and go there daily the crime rate is horrible, the people are rude, the homeless population is increasing with pan handlers on every corner and prostitutes and drugs galore I recommend moving elsewhere visit the Riverwalk but live on the outskirts not in the town you will get robbed, and solicited to.. and please pronounce PUEBLO RIGHT!! You sound foolish doing a video and not pronouncing the town correctly 🙄
I have to agree, as a former resident, I would never move back and not to be critical, most locals either pronounce Pueblo as Poo-eblo or Pee-eb-lo! I found it to be a pretty rough city w/ a higher than average crime rate and w/ a gang activity. It's more of who you know over what you know when it comes to getting a job and if you're not the right ethnicity, you'll find it even more difficult. I'm glad that I only come back to visit family from time to time.
@@jaymeroach792 solid point on employment here almost all employers are overly picky as you said almost like a Disney casting call either that or they're untransparent or want you to be a drone and pretty much work and work with no time for anything else
I grew up in Pueblo. We called "Lake Pueblo" the Pueblo reservoir. I never heard it called "Lake Pueblo" until a few years ago. It's an ugly, depressing place to live. There's only a few good jobs there, or at least there was when I was growing up. The people who worked at the steal mill made decent money, other than that people had to work fast food or some other menial job. I left Pueblo when I was in my 20's. The whole world opened up, and I will NEVER live in that depressing town again.
I love how the Realtor in this comment section was just yearning to get people here. This place is a god damn nightmare. The crime is out of control. It is literally the Detroit of Colorado.
@@EXccord I hear ya and I hope you are able to move one day. I moved to Florida back in 2000, and it was bad back then in Pueblo. I love FL. Stay safe. I feel for ya.

Colorado is a great place but it has a ugly shadow of having a police department which discriminates ...a homeless young man was beat by a part time swat officer and his punk son a mma fighter . #Elpueblo has to do better with police . This incident happened in 2022 but has just went viral on internet . #Dougcollison #Natecollison #firingsquad
I'm flatered you have such optimism about our town, but it's not a place you want to be. The only reason we have such a low property value is because nobody here would be able to live in a house without it, the schools are mostly filled with either hate filled student or hate filled staff, and every student I've ever met is extremely depressed. Unless your not planning on staying, living here is not recommended, and for your own safety, don't move here
You missed the chili festival
I grew up in Pueblo and used to always go camping at Lake Pueblo State Park, made some good memories there.

Well said!
Homelessness is usually not a lifestyle choice, and to work people need a living wage.
