The thing about Beverly Hills is a lot of those houses are empty, People simply buy them as an investment and watch the value go up
Those are precisely the houses all the homeless people should be moving to. Great way to help solve a crisis while giving a giant middle finger to those perpetuating it.
Sounds like Miami
@@dmike3507
I'd like one too lol
Mao, where are you? Please, we need you!
@@PhilfreezeCH🤮
NGL, after hearing the way the rich there use their water and block plans for a subway and affordable housing, it kinda makes me hope for an army of homeless and impoverished LA citizens to just storm the hills and squat on their pristine lawns. Maybe leave a few presents for them while they're there.
In a normal city I would hope many of them would eat led. But I would assume that most of the residents of Beverley hills are very soy so they would do nothing.
@@blah204the residents probably would do very little, but the cops would do all the exercising of force in no time flat. Especially if this hypothetical storm of people settled above the dividing street Vaush was showing
Strong use of “squat” for the double entendre
@@LyzLocked maybe in that area specifically sure, seems like it depends tho. Remember when they arrested that couple for pointing guns at a violent BLM mob? Kinda feel like if Beverley hills people did that they wouldn’t get arrested for it
@@blah204if you’re talking about mark and Patricia mccloskey they absolutely did not get arrested. They got fined and later pardoned lmao
I worked with two Persian women years ago and the subject of nationality was very touchy. They made sure you knew they were Persian, not Iranian and took great offence to anything else, especially any association with Arab's. To them at least, Arab's had taken over their country and displaced the native Persian population. One of them invited myself and some of our coworkers to our first Persian restaurant which had incredible food and taught us about their culture around eating and traditional staples. Very interesting stuff.
Which is ironic because Persia is an exonym used by the Ancient Greeks to refer to the region and Iran is a pre-Islamic endonym for the region.
Persians take it very seriously. Islamic revolution may also play into that as well.
Clearly those ladies were critics of the Achaemenid Empire. (closet Selucids)
Most of the Iranians I've met self describe as Iranian, I'm guessing there's a political component there too.
@@maneatingcheeze I think like @ericosagie3046 mentioned, it was tied in with the Islamic revolution to some degree. I don't remember the specifics, but I do remember anger over lost rights, etc.
Interestingly enough, I've worked with a few Iranian men and they identify as such. I asked one guy about the Persian vs Arab thing and he said "no, they're our friends". For the two women, I'm assuming the loss of rights had a lot to do with their resentments.
theres actually two dividing lines in beverlly hills. As Vaush and the video says, Santa Monica Blvd seperates the middle-class from the rich people, but then a little further north Sunset Blvd seperates the rich people from the uber-rich people. Most of the houses shown here for the rich part of beverly hills are actually north of Sunset, because its only north of sunset that you *actually* get into the winding hills roads. The part inbetween Santa Monica and Sunset is still a grid of houses. .... I mean yeah the people there are very rich, but theres a pretty huge difference between people in 10 milllion dollar homes and people in 100 million dollar homes
you can see it in the maps and when showing the view from above - its the winding road that sperates the grid from the more messy looking section.
As an LA native, I was also surprised to hear about crime going up. The city seems more focused on looking good rather than feeling like a community. It's odd how a place with so much can still have problems. There’s so much money there, but it doesn't seem to make people any friendlier.
Your thoughts on how everyone drives fancy cars and how the city doesn't have places for people to walk or ride bikes made me think. Your story about growing up in BH and how you felt was really interesting too. Thanks for sharing. It made me look at BH in a new way.
16:55 Wow, that looks exactly like some of the neighborhoods I grew up around in South Africa --except maybe the walls are a bit higher with an electric wiring on top. In general, you don't want to be compared to South Africa considering who and why those neighborhoods were built.
Considering their history of excluding black people, it's not an unfair comparison
I work there. It’s genuinely a coin-toss if someone’s gonna be weird and subtly racist or super kind.
Maybe the real Beverly Hills was the Vaush pit we made along the way
I like at 12:25 Vaush shows the spot in GTA V where you can do a stunt jump
Never knew it was it's own city, probably has an insanely high gdp
they wouldn't want to depend on LA for anything, like Disneyworld
It's always interesting too see Vaush's YT video suggestions and go "huh, he's watching *exactly* the same things I watch."
InB4 he sees the video about the trans chick who went undercover to a hateful church and one of them preached about her.
@@soccerruben1 oh fuck, I've been getting that reccomended as well °_°
We really are all the same, huh?
Vaush is secretly the Beverly Hills Chihuahua.
Beverly Hills doesn't have enough Horses for Vooosh
So would you say Beverly Hills is economically conservative and socially liberal. That’s what I tend to find in wealthy areas
Pretty much, though again, by neighborhood, it depends. I think IIRC, North BH voted for Trump while the South voted for Biden. Do note that the protests concerning lockdowns happened in BH so yeah.
0:43 Vaush in his landlord era.
Why hasn’t vaush debuted as a vtuber yet! We all know it’s his fate!
A horse vtuber.
@@somefreetime7458 A coconut vtuber.
@trianglemoebius it would just be an anime vaush with a coconut bikini haha
Vaush has always been a vtuber.
No real person is that hairy.
I mean he’s a Vaush tuber so technically a vtuber?
Youre telling me the Hills are NIMBYs??? no way 😱
Decommodify housing!
Build more housing and for God’s sake, finish the Purple Line asap! I know it got green lit, but it needs to be complete.
But Vaush, where was your house?! You can't show a whole video like that and not show us where you lived.
It doesn’t look that interesting, maybe a 2000-2400 sq ft middle class home but it’s got the weird socal ranchero look I can’t stand.
Edit: it also appears to be a split house so his parents likely rent out half of it. really needs new windows too, it’s the old single pane types you can’t get truly clean bc they’re old. daddy vaush really needs to spoil his parents with a home remodel
I get the vibe that his parents still live there, so he probably doesn't want to send an army of weird internet fans + a few salty deranged Nazis to his parent's doorstep.
I dated a girl who lived in the south part of Beverly Hills shortly after I moved to LA. The thing that really stood out to me about that area is the rats. Really. It's effing infested. And stay off the roads at night, that's when the kids come out to play Fast And Furious in their Bugattis.
14:50 you know how you look up cultural practices from ancient or contemporary societies and think some of them are so weird, unnecessary, & sometimes too cruel from our Anglo-point of view, things like ritual human sacrifice in bronze age & mesoamerican cultures, pederasty in greco-roman antiquity, harems in medieval muslim societies, & the foot-binding of women in pre-modern china, i could list a lot of other things Americans find unusual about other cultures,
but Americans slapping a clean-cut grass lawn in literally every single geographic area they inhabit is definitely America’s weirdest and unnecessary cultural trait, like the entire southwest, great plains, rockies, and the sub-tropical parts of the south (especially florida) literally cannot naturally grow or sustain these types of grass lawns, yet Americans force houses and developments to have them as default and they contribute greatly to water scarcity in those regions,
i mean here in florida grass lawns start to dry up and die after a week with no rain, in summer we constantly have to have the sprinklers on at least twice a week, i can’t imagine how much water is wasted in maintaining grass lawns in the literal desserts of Nevada, Arizona, & New Mexico
Now that doesn't seem to be the case too much with Beverly Hills, but in a lot of American suburbs, its also crazy how few trees there are. It's like people don't want them because they cast shade on their lawn -_-
@@alexseguin5245 literally like 90% of all american suburbs have that ugly, default grass lawn, and worse when there’s an HOA that doesn’t let you landscape it any other way
I live in Northern California and I can definitely say it's not just Beverly Hills that feel entitled to all the water, it's the agricultural sector. It's literally illegal to collect rain water in personal basins because it's considered state property. And by state, they mean the government land that mass produces food for the state. All the rest of the state was forced to limit out water consumption while all the rich assholes and farmers got the lion's share. That's why most lawns here have been replaced with desert-scaping or, even worse, astro turf. 🤢
But, thanks to this last rainy season, my city is out of the drought. Our local lake is fuller than it's been in a long time. Let's hope we can keep it up this next winter because it seems like everyone else piggybacks off us.
Tf is wrong with the farmers? Everybody needs food, farmers are a huge boon to the good of society
@@lazygongfarmer2044 I already said what my issue is. The government lets them get away with so much.
Eh, that could be. Depends on whether were talking about the big corporate farms or small farmers. Probably the corp farms could take a water cut. Tbh SoCal just might not be a good region for farming anymore. NorCal is a different situation, though, being the most productive farmland in the whole country, we honestly have to give NorCal farmers at least *some* leeway. I think if we just make big corporations more responsible for their water use, scarcity would be way less of a problem
Wtf how does California get away with not allowing rainwater collection
@@lazygongfarmer2044 I guess Governor Brown made it legal in 2012, but you have to comply with the very strict guidelines. However, it WAS entirely illegal before 2012. Some states also make it illegal to store rain water.
I wonder how Beverly Hills compares to The Hamptons as far as taste goes. I know alot of wealthy people on the East coast consider themselves Old Money and their tastes tend to be less trendy and more "traditional."
up in the actual hills are the old money/ultra wealthy celebrities/saudi oil money/etc. this is where a lot of the mega mansions are, or just older "mansions" on fairly large lots. around the beverly hills hotel is still really in the hills, nothing changes much until you cross sunset. even then the only thing that really changes is they're slightly less wealthy than the hills, but still more money than most of us are ever likely to have in our entire lives. the lots tend to be smaller, and not really mega-mansion friendly except for the few that have bought multiple lots and combined them.
crossing santa monica is where the real shift happens. you've still got to be fairly well off to live there, especially if you actually own something and not just rent one of the apartments that start to pop up at that point. but it does start to get at least slightly more in the realm of reason.
the architectural style is called spanish renessaince revival btw
You grew up around an obvious across the street wealth divide. You must have been at least a little middle class, if I listened correctly, but even that wouldn't of sheltered you from that clear gap of wealth and power being so visible.
Ah. I didn't realise it was time again for our quarterly 'Vaush gets nostalgic about LA/BH' stream. How time flies.
BEVERLY HILLS
THAT'S WHERE I WANT TO BE

Gimme gimme
As someone that wants to live in LA Vaush leaving and being happier confuses the shit out of me... NY?
NY looks way better than LA lol
@@alexseguin5245 I've only seen LA in GTA and skate vlogs so I wouldn't know.
New York’s walkability and public transit alone makes it a million times better to live in than Los Angeles.
The EQ on this video makes the youtube video that Vaush is reacting to sound like City Beautiful is speaking through a pipe.
12:18 I actually think that's more of a Cordoba vibe; i.e. the predominant style in Islamic Spain (Al-Andalus), which drew from a mix of Middle-eastern, Classical Roman, and Byzantine architecture.
Edit: Shit, I should've been more patient. A fellow pedant corrected him a few seconds later.
LA sucks. But I do miss riding a bike down to the beach whenever I felt like it.
So it didn't suck completely
@@Sixflat1 This is true of must things that are slightly more complex than a vacuum cleaner.
@@rainbowkrampus like Dyson's, they use complex new tech for much better suction
rich boy confirmed omega kek
I wish vaush would adopt me.
Least obsessed vaushite.
vaush do you know the chihuahua??
finally someone asking the real questions
I remember reading somewhere (perhaps the LA Times) that students who attended Beverly Hills High School were afflicted with cancer at a disproportionately high rate, which was attributed to its oil well on campus.
Beverly hills? Oh, you mean the vaush pit.
Dont forget to donate to your streamers!
I live in Beverly Hills (south of the line)
Tons of money and zero taste is what BH is famous for. Honestly, it's part of the charm.
I never knew Vaush was from this capitalist hellscape. I could not find a single thing wrong with what he said, only stuff to add. Like how half of the city is on the Spanish grid while the other half is on the English grid, which is part of why traffic is hell while the other part is pretty fucking obvious and Beverly Hills exemplifies it as well. Los Angeles not only has/d oil fields, but we also have oil refineries farther south like in Torrance and other parts of the South Bay. I also exactly where view park is, it’s zip code is no longer Los Angeles in the post office but View Park- Windsor Hills even though it’s still unincorporated Los Angeles. Though some businesses will claim to be Inglewood or what not to skirt the firework laws Los Angeles has.
Anytime I hear someone say 'agua', I almost always think of trans water
Trans water? I didn’t think the molecule could withstand such strain.
@@nobleradical2158 maybe he means transboundary water
19:00 that looks like something out of Metropolis 😭
By the way, Beverly Hills FAILED to prevent the Purple Line from being built, it'll open the first section as soon as 2024. Connecting West LA to the rest of LA would be amazing.
11:00 Parisian?! Hell no.
Haussmannian?! Phuck no.
Haha, Voosh funny.
This whole video could be summed up as “Vaush gets mad he grew up on the south side of Beverly Hills”
As a Persian American, try not to associate with other Persians in CA lol
you know how you went over one piece a few weeks ago well Beverly Hills is pretty much how i picture Mariejois and the people who live there Celestial Dragons
0:08 THE JEWS!!
18:04 - literaly California Uber Alles.
Vaush came from the poorest part of Beverly Hills. He had to use paper bags for shoes.
oh no is vaush a nepo baby
19:37 Looks like chat has found space to house a few thousand people in affordable homes.
So nice of them to keep that plot of land empty, now seize it.
My neighborhood is called embry hills, we are doing a giant cover of Beverly hills but with our name :)
I knew it was a golf course because its in gta V lol. Never put a foot in america yet i know how stupid beverly hills is
I didn’t know Bel Air was the hood.
Beverly hills chivaushua
To anyone that Played Uncharted 4 and got to the Pirate Lord Beverley Hills. Well, I just explained it right there; thats exactly what Beverley Hills is like. A bunch of manor fortresses that each act like their own hedge walled kingdoms.
Your beard looks expensive like Beverly Hills! Jokes aside, you are extremely mature and have so much knowledge. Inspiring to see such a young man like you expressing your ideas.
Love how all the "communists" are rich kids with great upbringings. Some things never change. Must be nice!
And can you explain how that's an inherently bad thing?
Best than being "capitalists"
And? You know Vaush ain’t no commie, just a Libertarian Socialist, and before you replied, nope, that’s not a contradiction. But yeah, leftists who happen to have decent upbringings doesn’t make their advocacy less valid, because socialism isn’t when you’re poor. You can be poor and be a simp for free market capitalism.
@@soccerruben1 What do you mean "and?" Vaush is a clown, and if you want to hear this narcissist toot his own horn, be my guest. The guy is just another pretentious asshat along with his psuedo-intellectual takes on "socialism." Same with Hasan, and the rest of that ilk.
> Ur poor? UR JEALOUZ
> Ur middle? UR BAD AT GAIM
> Ur rich? BUD IT WURKED 4 U
Infallible argument right there
Beverly Hills/ That’s where Vaush wants to BEEEEE (living in Beverly Hills)
Here in my country, even poorest residences have walls and gates, because if you doesnt build a wall and a gate, all your things will be disapear.
To channel my inner MacArthur:
LA and everything associated with it is a endless dystopian hell scape. I recommend the wholesale destruction followed by rebuilding it with much denser housing. An area reduction of 60% should be more than possible.
I think 2-3 nukes should do the job, as would a large conventional bombing campaign.
Based
Buckle up y’all
I like the Persian architecture
I used to Postmates and doordash in Beverly Hills and it’s def something else. It’s due getting tipped $60 for ONE order was fye. Also these mfs don’t even have homes, they have ESTATES.
So happy to protect Ian from the anguish of living in Beverly Hills
Is that a turtle on your desk in the background?
Vaush is an obvious industry plant. He doesn't even write his own songs.

I'm from missouri. in the year 2000 I got a parking ticket on rodeo drive in Beverly hills. in my 1997 Dodge neon because I didn't park within the lines
Did you pay it
Vaush reminiscing about the layout of Beverly Hills and I'm just like yeah I played GTA V too lol
Of course this guy is from Beverly Hills, any other place would not make as much sense as this.
Also: “I’ve been there!” When talking about the “black Beverly Hills”…
Classic.
Vootch’s bourgeoise arc
funny that your detractors keep saying you are pampered by the life in beverly hills without realizing that your parents HAVE to live there because of the industry's demands.
I didn't realize Beverly Hills was a city.
Vtuber Vaush
I have friends in California who have fake grass on their lawn, and it’s just so sad. That’s why I would never live in a desert, no plants? That’s just seems depressing. Temperate biome supremacy 💥
As a Californian I am very offended by your erasure of our rich and diverse selection of wild grass, cacti, succulents, etc. There's plenty of colorful native and non-native plants that are low in water needs and thrive in our inside-of-the-oven of a climate. Just fuck grass lawns and fuck almond trees.
Literally just plant native plants to the area.
for desert living, you do the desert plant (etc) thing. you know, like all your neighbors.
The LA area has historically been Mediterranean, not desert. The problem is that far too many non-native and especially invasive species have came over both intentionally and unintentionally and created such a huge demand on water that we needed water from elsewhere long before climate change and what not was a thing. Climate change along with the shitty white European farming practices such as monocultures and such exacerbated the water demand and drought. The current lack of green d at pace here, doesn’t help either, nor the shitty white European architecture practices either.
Yo can't grow grass on temperate climate xddd
i liked beverly hills in Fallout 1
Beverly Hills thats where I wanna be
Is this where Ray Donovan lives?
I grew up in an old money town but 1990s gave new money.. McMansion mania.. so tacky. I just did a video on TikTok about tasteless taste in this country
“I’m rollin’ down Rodeo with a shotgun
These people ain’t seen a brown-skinned man since their grandparents bought one”
Isn’t it kinda wild there was an oil well at a high school?
Vauj lived in a 3 billion dollar home!?!?!
What makes a human who wants to live in BH and sustain its undead state?
How does City Enclaves work on an administration level? Like does got beverly hills its on PD? Can LAPD chase people they are chasing through there or did they need to phone someone first? And so on?
Beverly Hills and, like, over 30 other cities we generally describe as “Los Angeles” are independent municipalities with their own governments and public services (such as -pigs- police).
Exclaves are cities that were incorporated before the city of Los Angeles expanded to basically fill in the cracks and completely surround them. Folks talk or think about cities like Beverly Hills, West Hollywood or Santa Monica sort of like neighborhoods.
GTA 5 in real life.
Nice hometown.
I hate it.
Vaush almost said white aryan people 😂😂😂
champagne socialism
6:40 so socialism after all is when no money
Hahaha those homes are tiny!! I grew up living near one of Arnold Schwarzenegger's vacations home in a place called "Beverly hills". His house is the size of 6 of those houses and probably a better price...
My childhood home is now worth 1.8 mill 15 from a grocery store and 10 mins to the beach on foot, we paid 650 for it.... now i feel like that was a good deal.
*Weezer intensifies*
Prewatch
What did Vaush's parents do to get so rich?
not sure about his mom but his dad was a VFX artist
They weren’t 6-figures rich, but with Mark’s job as a VFX artist, it helped them get through financially, as well as Vaush’s mom working as well.
so... we will put you down as, "not a fan".
Day 1 of checking for Vaush content that’s even remotely interesting
Vaush, the socialist from Beverly Hills. Sounds like a good movie.
bababooey
