Grew up in SE Roanoke 80s/90s and learned long ago that hood is where your mind is, not where you're from. But with said, the majority of Roanoke is hood.
I'm from Roanoke all I see is a fairly clean neighbor hoid with very old homes. I don't know where he's driving thru but looks like a typical neighbor hoid to me
Isn't it interesting that the further away from the "big cities" with their "urban, 'gangsta', diverse, culture"... The nicer the neighborhoods ? And the residents are probably better behaved... BTW, Baltimore City had 6 homicides between 8:45p Monday to 4:30a Tuesday morning...
You should go downtown dude, there's a place called Benny's that does gigantic-ass slices of pizza for like 4 bucks Also you shoulda told me you were nearby so I could have you run me over w your car
Has a traveler..Roanoke is one of America’s best cities..and Roanoke doesn’t have real dangerous goods at all..I highly recommend moving there ..wonderful people great jobs and no serious crime..
most of what you drove through was gb. (gainsboro for people not from here.) gb aint really that hood. it upscale black neighborhood. only hood u kinda rode thru was melroze/18th. than u didnt turn on 11th and go down from the pure. that block one the hottest in the city at night
This area is definitely hood, but he ain't show it but a few square blocks in one area, next time try it in 5thst, LTP, 11st, Melrose, Lansdowne, Hurt Park, The West End, Villa Heights, Wilmont, Washington Heights, BlueStone, Indian Village, Tinker Creek, Jamestown, Panarama, Westside, Eureka, Norwich, the list can go on for days upon days.
This is just the poor side of town. I don't see littering, cops 🚓 couches on the porch, or sneakers on the wire. No guys hanging out. Please do a new day and night tour.
I’m from Roanoke va it’s funny y’all saying those neighborhoods are nice trust me we trying to find a way tf out it ain’t so nice a lot of shit happen it’s been a lot of murders due to hating everybody there really just on a paper chase but you get some haters so most end up dead or in jail over some shit that could of been avoided a lot of senseless deaths
@@randomvid3os313 It is a challenge but u can do it. It's all about who u decide to hang with and what type of goals you set for yourself to have a better life. Most ppl choose to stay or come back bcuz that's all they Know.
I live in Roanoke.. There's no hood xD lmfao the only sketchy place around here is by melrose ave(where you driving by) people die from heroin here. Not gang related shit.
I live in Roanoke southeast area it’s pretty sketchy over here😂 about 2 years ago in the house beside mine there was a fricken murder! It was 3 people, 1 man (the father), and 2 woman( mother and daughter). Basically long story short the mother was high and murdered the other 2 people.
I wouldn’t say that still, I mean the job market and business attraction has gotten really dry the past few years and most of the jobs are low income. So I suggest just staying in the three big parts of Virginia, Hampton roads, Richmond area, and nova.
My mom and stepdad retired from the Navy and my stepdad is from here, I guess they wanted a smaller town life and plus the cost of living here is cheaper. I came out here like a year later when I was 20, not intending to stay permanently but ended up meeting a girl and having a kid, and have been here ever since. My mom loves it here because she likes the slower pace but I've always hated it since day one. Some people like the small town life but it's not for me, plan to make it back to the west coast one day. I miss the food, the weather, surfing, the laid-back easygoing non-judgmental lifestyle, and all the things to do. Great for people in the medical field though, the Carilion hospital network is huge here
If you do move out here don't live in Roanoke City, stay in Roanoke County, Vinton, Salem or Botetourt County. The past few year Roanoke City has gotten horrible with shootings and just crime in general. The police department says most of it is gang related so I guess gangs in the city are getting really bad
@@thereddragon2607 these fools just dont know about how noke get down.. them Melrose boys, Lafayette boyz, landstown boyz, karu, heights, Ltp, Hunts, And various other hoodz.. they take a wrong turn in S.W. and come up missing lol
Great stuff! Love your channel. Any chance of doing Baltimore, since you are on the road? Safe journeys and keep up the good work! Very important stuff.

thats not even the worst part of the city you coulda driven around LTP or LDP or driven around Hurt park in the West or VH1 IDK if Gainsboro is all that bad
Hi...from Roanoke and this is not the hood. at all. this is a area west of historic downtown. ive lived here and never once felt unsafe. as you can see....its not bad AT ALL.
Roanoke has less crime in 10 years than most cities have in a single year. Also less people for the size of it's area. I'm not saying there is no crime, but if you think crime is high there, don't ever leave or you are in for a rude awakening.
You should of went to Radford Va (Radford University) and drove around near all the frat houses in the summer time. Lol LOTS of interesting things go down ...
From my understanding (I lived in VA for many years) even the hoods in Virginia are pretty tame. This could be the fact that everyone except your bleeding heart liberal is packing heat, and most criminals don't like hard targets.
melrose ain even tha worst 👎🏽 SE is another story😭🤣. salem has some pretty rough neighborhoods too , at least where we moved to after living in roanoke😂
My stuffing grounds born and raised here all my life it's 2021 and it's always been crazy in southeast Northeast everywhere but it's been a lot of shootings lately and killings and I mean it's everywhere but Roanoke has increased a lot but I wouldn't trade my hometown for nothing
Love u CharliBo313 Keep ridimg my brother..a lot of these places i've never visited..when u driving, im riding on a journey to..to places i"ve never been..peace to u my brother..#next
Some place in Tennessee will rob you the police will called civil asset forfeiture its called. it's going on in Oklahoma City and Indianapolis Indiana to.
I live here the route he took is a black neighborhood. not much goes on there. as whole the city only has about 10-15 homicides a year might be lower this year
population is 99879 we had 17 homicides in 2017 i'm not bragging on the city just the facts.you got some people who don't like it here but more that do. and they were not all commited by people living in the hood
fuck that's a lot! I might be moving there next year tho. here in Fargo North dakota our pop is 130,000 and we have 0-1 murder a year.i think we've gone 4 years without one at one point .
come up to minneapolis, we have some really bad areas here. theres no go zones here if youre white, in the Somalian projects. some of the worst black hoods i saw in my life are in north minneapolis, and east st paul.

This is not the hood that’s just downtown which is also removed enough from the city, the issue we have with downtown is actually the homeless
bro only went near 8th street he didnt even drive by half of the hoods in roanoke
My friend lives in Roanoke and he lives in one of the most dangerous neighborhoods in Virginia

You must have ALOT of prejudice if you think this is "the hood". This is my hometown and Roanoke is a lovely place to live and raise a family.

its a lovely place to want to die. its boring af there
All of Roanoke is lame. Moved out here from San Diego, been all over the country, this is the lamest most boring town I've been to.
