He drove around the small gritty part of downtown, Sherbourne and Queen to Dundas and around there. Then he was up around Jane and Finch and back to Sherbourne and Dundas. There's only so much "hood" to work with in Toronto. The pre-amalgamation 19th century, early 20th century parts of the city are mostly gentrified, wealthy and safe, albeit with some junkies and beggars wandering around. There are some parts of Scarborough and Etobicoke that are "hood" by Canadian standards, but mostly Americans would just find them cute compared to their hoods. And yes, I know Chairman Chow and people like Gord Perks and Chris Moise are woke idiots at the helm at city hall.
If you want to see real hoods in Canada you gotta go up north to those small towns located near Indigenous reserves, now those are bleak conditions! Urban crime in large Canadian cities like Toronto or Montréal are generally quite minimal especially compared to small/mid sized towns here which statistically have much higher crime rates
100%, there was probably more to film in Toronto 20 years ago when it wasn’t so expensive. But people who know Canada know it’s the towns under 100k between Northern Ontario and Alberta (some in NS as well) that have obnoxiously high levels of crime, drug addiction, government dependency, teen pregnancy, violence, rape, murder, etc.
@@danman7903facts. The crime rates are crazy in some parts of rural Canada. Last year North Battleford (14k population) in northern Saskatchewan was rated as the most dangerous city Canada with a crime rate that was 575% higher than the national average 😮 it’s also true that many of the other issues you listed such as school dropout rates, high welfare rates, teen pregnancy, domestic violence ,and drug abuse are also far more prevalent in smaller towns than big cities across Canada. The urban vs rural divide is definitely quite stark in Canada when you think about it
Bro I love what you do. I think there is importance in documenting the struggle so that we see we are in the same struggle no matter where we are on this planet. However, I do feel that in some cases this documents a confirming stereotype giving people who don't really know us and have to contact with us ammo to say "see, I told you they live like this..." The 313 in your name lets me know you're from the same place as me. In showing the worst, help to break that stereotype by balancing it out and showing the Rosedale Parks, Palmer Woods, University Districts, etc. just to let them know that there are beautiful areas that are majority us...just my idea, other than that keep doing what you're doing and be safe doing it...peace brotha.
I’m thinking about taking a short vacation into Canada this year now I get to see what Toronto & Ontario is about.. you finally did it crossed the from the US border into Canada Toronto ,Ontario Canada..🇨🇦 their hood look way nicer than any other in the United States. No matter what state or country you to ..You always find a Mini mall, The dollar store is big like a supermarket ..👍🏾 I want to ride on the trolley car Thank you for this amazing video.
You can't judge what Toronto-pronounced Torono by the locals from his videos. He hasn't even scraped the tip of the iceberg. Toronto is an extremely huge, sprawling city of over 7.3 million people. The trolly car is called the Street Car and they are often very crowded, smelly, dirty and dangerous. Believe me when I say this as an ex-Torontonian, yes there are lots of really nice places to visit but there are areas I would not want to be caught in even after death. So, yes come and eat our great foods, enjoy our diverse cultures and waterfront, but please watch your surroundings.
This video is very misleading. While I like Charlie's videos... every time he comes to Toronto, he always goes to places that aren't hoods but will title the video as "hood". And while Toronto is GENERELLY safe (like 80-85 percent of the video is safe), Toronto’s hoods are more comparable to New York’s. In the sense that they both share the same type of low income projects and that both cities gun and gang violence is concentrated in these projects. Toronto & NYC both share that same public housing impoverishment. On the outside Toronto's project buildings might not look like much but once you go inside them you'll see shit completely different. In a lot of units you'll see ceilings & walls peeling apart, cockroaches and bed bugs crawling EVERYWHERE, lights go out sometimes, tap water sometimes not working properly, just like every other government housing anywhere else🤷🏾♂
@@PunchBuggyDreams The streetcars are all brand new with huge windows and air conditioning. They are not smelly at all. People, even less wealthy people, take daily showers, especially the young ones.
One recommendation. Skip the downtown Sherbourne area since your last video was here. Go to Eglinton West, Rexdale, Jane and Finch and Jane and Lawrence. Way more ghetto.
I've been to all those areas, I have videos with some of those areas. Most of those areas don't make good videos, This channel is all about visuals. This the most run down area I see in Toronto. Toronto and some US cities aren't good for filming because of the layout. They are all houses that sit back from the road or are apt buildings on big busy streets which makes it difficult to get close up footage. No matter what the reputation they won't get a lot of views if it don't have a certain look that get people attention.This area has bldgs, etc close to the road and lots of people out. That's why US east coast cities are the best for filming.
@@CharlieBo313 hey Charlie it would be really awesome if you could go to Winnipeg's North End, riding along the Main Street and go to Lord Selkirk Park, William Whyte and North Point Douglas neighborhoods. In my opinion these are one of the only inner cities that can be defined as "ghetto" in Canada. Lack of businesses and community ressources, with rundown buildings, quite a bunch of boarded and burned up houses, and the high crime/mrdr rate. Its rough out there
Kingston/Lawrence area, Eglinton West Little Jamaica, Jamestown/Mount Olive/North Kipling, St. Jamestown, and Teesdale/Crescent Town are the most old school NYC hood looking Toronto spots to me
If Canadians call some areas in their country the hood, they'll quickly find that's heaven compared to the Bronx, Watts, Chicago, Detroit and many other cities in the US.
All those houses are million dollars to which is crazy to have someone defecate on your doorstep and the house is still worth $1 million. Not too many places like Toronto.
@@00Anew00 that’s out of 330 million people (usa) not 39 million in Canada with one major city and thats Toronto. Not including all the other cities that are nice in different countries. So yeah, not too many. for the price tag.
This area is a shithole. Everyone there is either up to no good or somewhere they shouldn't be. I've had some of the best shawarma in the city at a place called Marhaba that used to be beside the Sam's at Sherbourne and Dundas. I would feel quite uncomfortable waiting for the Dundas street car at that intersection after picking up some good take out.
@VychesFrar they have no idea how bad it is in Russia. A lot of media disinformation causing people to think they have it very good in Russia unfortunately. I see people online asking for a Putin like dictator....
There's hoods everywhere brother. If poverty along with murders, shootings, stabbings, gang raids, & drug dealing are present in certain neighbourhoods of a city, then by the modern definition, that is a hood. The big difference is that the hoods in Canada aren’t as big & as widespread like what you'd see in the States. Canada does a lil bit of a better job of not letting their cities fall apart & turn into total WARZONES like Baltimore, Detroit, St. Louis, Jackson MS, Memphis, or New Orleans etc. But Canadian cities are no different from American cities, in the sense that we still got areas where you gotta watch your surroundings & know where you at. Canada is FAR from perfect.
spent my whole life in ontario & i'll say that there is nowhere in toronto that looks like the hoods of the usa. weston/lawrence or jane/finch might be high crime gang activity, but they just aren't as run down structurally. maybe go drive out to a native reserve if you want to see people living in filth & squalor, but even then most houses on the reserves arent filthy they're just small and spread out.
I was raised in Scarborough, but currently live in the west end... it's more hood out here in the west end bro, although Scarborough does have one-two hoods that can compare.
It was bad before they installed the bike lanes too...as much as it is sucks to lose a lane, I love that fact that it freed up more parking spots for me to do Uber Eats.
Used to live in a rooming house at 235 Jarvis Street, not too far from where some of this was shot, around 20 years ago. Could be a tad sketchy sometimes, but okay overall. I think it's condos now.
In the 60's each morning at work, the betting pot was how many fires last night in Buffalo. == Today it is how many shootings in Toronto-- AKA Hogtown!!
Should try some areas in Scarborough or Etobicoke!! I see you ventured up to Jane Street in North York which is a start, go talk to those guy's over at Driftwood which is off of Jane Street. Scarborough go down the Lawrence strip from Markham Road to Morningside Ave, Etobicoke go up around Albion Road and Finch. There's many other "hoods" as well I haven't mentioned.
Toronto "hoods" are just small pocket neighborhoods, only couple blocks or townhouse/apartment complexes. Some apartments can have gang activity then literally 5 minute walk away there's a rich suburb.
Compared to the USA hood videos, this looks okay. Some corners with questionable people and that's it. But the streets look mostly fine, I don't see the irreversible urban decay of USA ghettos
The neighbourhood he drove through at 2:47 was Moss Park. It's a kinda considered a hood and a drug spot at the same time. It's known for being dangerous too. Last year in 2023, 7 murders happened in the Moss Park neighbourhood and it's not even a BIG neighbourhood like that. It's kinda like the Toronto version of Kensington, Philadelphia or Skid Row, Los Angeles. And No Moss Park isn't as bad as those two places but it's still a very active spot and has been for decades.
@@tdotsblessing I've lived in Kensington but not those other areas you listed in the states. I wouldnt go as far to compare any major city in the united states to a city like Toronto in terms of drugs, crime etc. Way safer and culturally different
@@Alexandre_L Certain neighbourhoods in Toronto aren't considered "safe" like the Moss Park neighbourhood but at least 80 percent of Toronto is safe. Which is good
@@guiltyuntilproveninnocent. She's the mayor who got into office exactly one year ago. He's probably saying she caused the hoods to exist in Toronto. She didn't. One year didn't do 💩. Hoods barely exist in Toronto.
lol..."hoods"? Toronto doesn't really have hoods, even the video is literally one block of the downtown core, where you find mostly friendly homeless people hanging outside a shelter. Intersection of Jane/Finch area, maybe, that two a few large towers with some gang activity, that's it. Fifth largest city in North America with an average 70+ murder rate, most of which are not gang related. Compare that to a place like Chicago, 800 average murders a year. Nothing to see here guys, sorry.
Most of you people really don't know what "hoods" are and just very ignorant to what goes on outside of the US... This isn't something to brag about but the modern description of a hood that most people are familiar with is a low income area with high levels of crime. If poverty along with murders, shootings, stabbings, & drug dealings are present in certain area of a city then that is a hood. And unfortunately some neighbourhoods in Canada fits this description. Now are there more dangerous hoods than Toronto's? Of course, but that mean it’s not a hood/ghetto now just because areas in Detroit, St. Louis, New Orleans etc. exist, two things can be true at once. It doesn't have to be on the level of Detroit, St. Louis or New Orleans for it to be recognized as hood. It don't matter if it's US or Canada or anywhere else, people's struggles are still present in low income areas. This isn’t something to brag about but this is just how it is.
If you're were walking through an area like 7:31 (which is downtown Toronto with all the skyscrapers and shit), I would agree with you. But other parts of this video like for example 2:27 (which Dundas and Sherbourne intersection in the Moss Park neighbourhood, feel free to look up how BAD this area is), there's a VERY HIGH chance that you won't have that money, or your headphones or the phone that you typed this comment with. This ain't something to brag about but, in some of these areas of Toronto, the robbery rates are really high, especially now with the cost of living skyrocketing here.
The thing about toronto is there isn't any continuous areas that can be considered, "hood" in America the cities are designed to be segregated so entire blocks are the ghetto. Toronto is built on the idea of mixed communities so when Charlie is driving sure he will hit a ghetto area but two blocks later is a nicer area and a few blocks after that it's rich areas. All of Toronto is like this. So many people naming areas in the comments they are all only a few blocks long. And the reason why theres so many is precisely that, if ghetto areas are small then you need a lot more of them to fit that low income population. We have nothing like the Westside of Chicago. And me personally i am thankful for that. If you want to know how I know this, other than being born and raised here and being a planning student in uni, I currently work a job that requires me to go all over the city, I would guess by now I've been on every street although every now and then I see a new street. I never feel uncomfortable, there are some stretches of roads in TCHC areas that can feel sketchy but these areas are more newcomers nowadays so you're still fine.

Just like in the southside suburbs of Chicago. (Harvey, Dolton, Robbins, Calumet, etc...)
You mean the former suburbs (North York, Scarborough, Etobicoke, etc.)
Former suburbs* but yeah downtown has been gentrified for the most part

if you want to go to a real toronto hood you should visit rexdale in toronto’s north side in etobicoke that’s a real hood right there

Is this really
cool❤
Born in TO .. Got sick of the place under Trudeau and wisely left for BC ... in 1981
Bc has some shithole places to though. Don't you guys have the highest concentration of drug addicts in Canada?
lol..."hoods"? Toronto doesn't really have hoods, even the video is literally one block of the downtown core, where you find mostly friendly homeless people hanging outside a shelter. Intersection of Jane/Finch area, maybe, that two a few large towers with some gang activity, that's it. Fifth largest city in North America with an average 70+ murder rate, most of which are not gang related. Compare that to a place like Chicago, 800 average murders a year. Nothing to see here guys, sorry.
Keep it this way hoods are nothing to be proud of
Most of you people really don't know what "hoods" are and just very ignorant to what goes on outside of the US... This isn't something to brag about but the modern description of a hood that most people are familiar with is a low income area with high levels of crime. If poverty along with murders, shootings, stabbings, & drug dealings are present in certain area of a city then that is a hood. And unfortunately some neighbourhoods in Canada fits this description.
Now are there more dangerous hoods than Toronto's? Of course, but that mean it’s not a hood/ghetto now just because areas in Detroit, St. Louis, New Orleans etc. exist, two things can be true at once. It doesn't have to be on the level of Detroit, St. Louis or New Orleans for it to be recognized as hood. It don't matter if it's US or Canada or anywhere else, people's struggles are still present in low income areas. This isn’t something to brag about but this is just how it is.
This part of Toronto I would walk down the street with headphones on counting money in the open.
And you would get swarmed by 6 buckets
7:57 and this guy would rob you running away laughing like a demented leprechaun
If you're were walking through an area like 7:31 (which is downtown Toronto with all the skyscrapers and shit), I would agree with you. But other parts of this video like for example 2:27 (which Dundas and Sherbourne intersection in the Moss Park neighbourhood, feel free to look up how BAD this area is), there's a VERY HIGH chance that you won't have that money, or your headphones or the phone that you typed this comment with.
This ain't something to brag about but, in some of these areas of Toronto, the robbery rates are really high, especially now with the cost of living skyrocketing here.
Tough guy
Then go and record a video of you doing just that...oh you won't? OK we thought so 😂😂
Very interesting video Thanks for the interesting information💯
Yerrr 🤟🏾
No way! My city! 🫶 that’s not a “hood” Charlie come to Rexdale we will give you the kings tour
Check out Brampton
The thing about toronto is there isn't any continuous areas that can be considered, "hood" in America the cities are designed to be segregated so entire blocks are the ghetto. Toronto is built on the idea of mixed communities so when Charlie is driving sure he will hit a ghetto area but two blocks later is a nicer area and a few blocks after that it's rich areas. All of Toronto is like this. So many people naming areas in the comments they are all only a few blocks long. And the reason why theres so many is precisely that, if ghetto areas are small then you need a lot more of them to fit that low income population. We have nothing like the Westside of Chicago. And me personally i am thankful for that.
If you want to know how I know this, other than being born and raised here and being a planning student in uni, I currently work a job that requires me to go all over the city, I would guess by now I've been on every street although every now and then I see a new street. I never feel uncomfortable, there are some stretches of roads in TCHC areas that can feel sketchy but these areas are more newcomers nowadays so you're still fine.
agreed
