COLUMBUS GEORGIA WORST HOODS

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 17 ส.ค. 2020
  • Driving around some of the worst hoods in this Georgia town. Located right on the border with Alabama some sections of this historic town have seen better days. With a fast growing Hispanic population there are more workers than jobs. Many restaurants are barely holding on in vacant districts. While i met great people I did not personally like the town. It felt more depressing than fort Myers Florida or Fort Pierce.. We walked into and OUT right away of 3 Latin restaurants that were empty, smelly and only served buffet style meals that looked old and reheated. We did eat downtown where large buildings sat empty. No offence to the great people who call this place home but I did not like the town it felt depressing. And again, just my personal opinion.

    WERE BACK!!! settled down at our new home. using a hotspot internet since there are no service providers where we live now. It has been a scary, wild and adventurous few weeks. but were starting to come back to normal slowly. No regrets, but many fears. Moving is MUCH more complicated than you could imagine! But potential for rewards are there. It took me years to stop feeling nostalgic over leaving Louisville KY and it could be the same way with Florida. Noting is easy in life all is effort and desperate situations give birth to success. just because you miss the old place or are having trouble adjusting DOES NOT mean you took a wrong turn.. it just means you took a difficult turn.

Soldiers and others invested in South Columbus. Over the years, they been transferred to other places and moved away. Lots of available homes and as time went on, what used to be nice new neighborhoods became worn down and, in many cases, poverty took over. If they had looked a little deeper, they would have found that there were nice, respectable homes and neighborhoods in the very areas near run-down sections. Now, many years later, revitalization efforts are springing up all over the place, and investors are having fun with some of these areas. They will bring hope to the communities that dot the city!

It seems like this city was abandoned by time, since the banks of the Chattahoochee aren't as important for industry as the once were. Downtown outside of the CSU campus was filled with abandoned buildings, rail yards, and homeless people. Maybe I just didn't see all the city had to offer, but idk, those are my thoughts, I know nobody asked.

Washington housing across from the Columbus Civic Center, And Ashley Station Housing they look really nice now and are new housing apartments, and the City of Columbus is continueing to pour $Millions of Dollars into South Columbus to revamp it. they also installed a round-about and put in a walking trail and new sidewalks/infrastructure and new street lights and it looks really nice. like any other city they all have there Rough spots but Columbus is improving the southside at a fastrate, don't know about other cities and what there doing. them trailers won't be in Columbus long the city is getting strict about mobile homes being in the city limits and are closing the trailer parks down and hauling them away. georgia is very strict on mobile homes being in the urban city area's this ain't no Baton Rouge lol. i live in alabama and georgia is richer and got more money than alabama so georgia can move on the projects and construction quicker to remodel these old area's. alabama/mississippi/Louisiana/West virginia are poor states. Georgia is wealthier and in about 6 years south columbus will be all new and revamped, they also have plans to put a Diamond interchange in South Columbus on Buena Vista Rd/I-185. many people say Columbus feels like a small town but it has a population of 197,235 people which is descent sized and Columbus City Limits is very large in square miles because all of Muscogee County is consolidated meaning all of Muscogee County is all Columbus City. Columbus is 221 Square miles of Land, Atlanta is 136 Square miles of Land, Columbus is larger in land size than Atlanta.

    If you grew up in Columbus you may have a positive opinion of the city. But if you moved here, the first thing you notice is how much of a dump Columbus is. There is no safe neighborhood here, except maybe for Green Island Hills where real estate is priced way out of the Middle Class. We live in the North East part of town near the Pratt and Whitney plant, which is where us working-class folks are going, and even here, crime is out of control. We have break-ins, shootings, all manor of thuggery. This is a horrible city. Schools suck. Don't move here - if you're coming for work, look for property in Harris County.

If the tenants start making complaints and they are forced to make renovations, they will either raise the rent or close the building. It will depend on how much someone is willing to pay for rent. If nobody is willing to pay the rent required to pay for the renovations and still make a profit, they will just close the building.

    These are some really rough areas you are so right about that. Columbus use to be a nice town even in those areas. Yes you have the good and the bad. They use to keep it clean and ALOT less vacant and abandoned buildings homes like the ones in these “neighborhoods “ and businesses. Use to have a very LOW murder rate. My how that has changed. Now it’s a lucky evening local news if they don’t report a new murder case every 12 hrs. There isn’t a whole lot to do in Columbus but go out to eat (way too many buffets) go to the movies and evening time go to a bar or nightclub. The most adventurous thing is white water rafting. Columbus also have a hockey team. They do offer ice skating sometimes and have a roller rink. It use to be a very thriving town that was before the crips m13 gangs. Shopping is ok there. Not a lot of different choices. If you are wanting a fast paced town....this is it! Rarely have concerts. Not a nightlife kinda town by no means!! Especially compared with Florida.

I moved away from there in 2000, I haven't been back since, but read their paper online sometimes and seen where they had 6 homicides in week recently. Seems like White are moving out. When I wa there it was at least 50% white, now recent demographics say it's 40%. I remember there were so many projects there like Wilson. I would be scared to even visit there now.

    I get that u was doing Columbus hoods but what about the side that doesn’t look like that. It’s only a small proportion that look like that. So everybody in these comments saying it’s such a horrible town when it’s not that bad and haven’t lived their need to shut up!

    • @FLORIDAHOODVLOGS

      Sorry but Columbus hoods are a massive portion of the citys landmass. most towns the hood is like 10% of it all.. Columbus at least 60% of the area within city limits is hoods. its one of the most depressing looking towns we have been to.. and we tour hard. its a depressing town. sorry but thats the truth. I gave the town a chance too.. tried food.. it was bad.. i tried to like it.. i did. you want me to lie?

      Marquis Ladner that’s not true at all! Idc y’all have y’all opinions but at the end of the day he only toured the bad. U have ur opinion and that’s on u plus Columbus has been getting fixed up. People have been fixing roads and rebuilding buildings! So he’s not telling the truth!!!

      I agree with you ari. I'm from columbus, lived there most of my life and have lived in different areas of columbus and it's not as bad as this video makes it out to be.
      Columbus is far from perfect but there are a lot of nice areas as well as a lot to like about the town itself.
      At the same time, you can't really fault the uploader because the purpose of his channel is to show off all the bad stuff. Just wanted to throw my 2 cents in

  • @rebel9838
    @rebel9838 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    This ain’t even the worst side of the south side this is where decent hard working people who don’t have help live these are the people who keep the city going the ones who don’t have a chip on their shoulder and will not ask for a handout but instead will work 100hrs a week to keep food on the table. The bad side of Columbus isn’t a street or neighborhood but instead it’s a group. It’s a group of people who don’t want to work so they steal rob kill or sell drugs in decent neighborhoods which in return make people think it’s a bad neighborhood.

    • @FLORIDAHOODVLOGS
      @FLORIDAHOODVLOGS  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      ok, well in my street there is a GROUP of people with guns and if anyone comes here to steal we hog tie them for a few weeks till they beg to go to jail. So you can keep living there. I think i work 10 hours a week in alabama i got time for all my hobbies here.. so keep working. hey go get some rest you got a long work day.

  • @rhiannonjanus1379

    This video makes me angry! You are judging a book by its cover and its obvious you know nothing about Columbus. I live on the “south side” as people call it and the area i live in is not bad just because people say it is. Unless you live there you dont know. Some people cant afford to keep their home looking brand new or whatever. Doesnt make it a bad area. And do your research cuz the north side has some stuff happen to it too. The north side isnt safe just because its nicer. Dont judge before you really get to know the area and the people!

    Now some of that is just some po folks houses just po an not the hood. But I do see even the few real places you didn't go into after dark lol. It's dead cuz you prolly out during tge heat or cold, or too early. In fact this makes the hood seem peaceful af! In fact in Col GA our hood folk pretty peaceful, always gonna have an Asshole start something somewhere, but that happens everywhere. You missed the trailer parks on the north side tho, if you're just Look in for poor people. Cuz I swear I wish I owned some of those brick homes with fenced in yards you think is the hood 😆

    • @nsanejain
      @nsanejain 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      In fact I guarantee you most those homes are cleaner inside than yours! Poor doesn't equal the "hood". Neither does being mostly black. Sincerely, a country white girl raised in a middle class home.

    • @nsanejain
      @nsanejain 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I really hope you got to see all of town, cuz not only is there lotssss of niceeeee homes there, there is poor people all over too. Some of them homes are occupied by elderly and disabled that can't cut grass or afford to pay for others to. Shame that more folks don't get outta there truck and ask if someone needs their grass cut. Not you cuz I kno u said u were visiting working but. Think about if one richer family offered to help a poorer family out. Not just money,but teaching skills, cutting grass for elderly, disabled etc. Each one teach one, and teach one to reach one. That is how one can help to TRULY change the world for the better. It starts with us!

    Born and raised there..This is sad , Columbus was a great place to grow up in my day.and all those areas were pretty kept up and nice. Then all the real locals moved and in came people from other places. I lived in lindsey creek. But seems u only show bad black areas next you gotta do white areas like trailer parks etc. When my grandparents passed away , people got out of school and most of the young left to college, military, Atl, or florida or some big city. To see it look like this im so hurt. Columbus high, Carver high...forever!

    I couldn't move back to my home town Columbus Georgia since it is too dangerous and looks like hell so disappointed how it looks now. It is not the Columbus I used to live in I left Columbus Ga after I graduated from Baker High School in June 4 1976. My parents and my 2 brothers we move to Seale Alabama. I still go see friends that still live in Oakland Park. But I could never ever move back to Oakland Park too dangerous now too many shooting going on in that city
