@@lenseofanomadit’s not that simple. You have to have skills and education to find better jobs. Education is not affordable nowadays unless you’re making illegal income on the side.

@@willp.8120yet Downtown Macon is much more vibrant than Downtown Jackson, MS. Also keep in mind Macon is in a much more populated state. Parts of North Macon are less than 40 miles to Metro Atlanta (Henry County). Also Warner Robins Metro is adjacent to the South (should be 1 metro)...Macon feels more "urban" more traffic flowing through
@@willp.8120 Regardless of the weird ways they determine a "Metro Area" ....within a 45 mile radius of both cities, there's definitely way more people surrounding Macon than Jackson.....Warner Robins Metro is just to the South and Henry County (Metro ATL) borders Macon's northern suburbs (Monroe County). Downtown Macon and the interstates is way more busy than Downtown Jackson, MS.
It does look a pretty desolate and rundown place. I wonder if it looks any better in spring and summer when the grass is green and there's leaves on the trees.
This video was obviously from last winter given no leaves on any of the trees. I live up here in the northern part of the state, and we still have some fall color left. Macon usually is two weeks later or so. Thus, this was probably last winter and he just got around to uploading it now.

When I hear people say certain Black areas in America are "empty and depressing ", it's usually some rich gentrifiers that understand that these areas are actually valuable; and cheap to buy. Yet they want to convince the Black natives that its a sh*thole, with no possiblities, just so they can hurry up & move out. They do something similar in Chicago. They over exaggerate about crime in certain areas, and act like the streets are as live as they were in the early 80s & 90s, just so the older Black home owners can become fearful and sell their homes. They have to do it the corrupt way, because their real reason for wanting the land doesn't align with imminent domain laws.
HA HA HA....I am from here and it is a shithole and the crime is bad and dope is everywhere...Nobody...Not even the black folks wants these properties...Why don't you brang yo shit talkin a$$ down here and buy this crap and do something with it instead of blaming somebody else for your miseries....always somebody else's fault....But I don't ever see these PO folks trying to pick up the trash or paint a lick, or open a business. But they can kick in other folk's back door at 2:oo in the afternoon and try to rob them with a pellet gun. yeah...Honest talk from the dirty south...handle it.
