Do y’all have to pay rent for them beat houses? I never understood how tha down south system work. I’m assuming tha houses aren’t apart of project housing
Those are the kind of people who rather spend $5k on rims then to put money on their house I use to live in Alabama and believe me I seen that all the time. You can drive right pass somebody house looking all beat up but you will see nice cars with nice rims sitting in the driveway.
@@RR-bb2lkeven though the house might not be apart of an association or complex you can still get vouchers and govt assistance, that’s how half the houses on my street are
Most of the housing was build in the 50s and 60s where I live but it's a relatively wealthy place compared to these neigborhoods I think these were build probably before then but can't say for sure. There are for sure some old ass Victorian places build in that century in parts of the town, but not a lot and they go for a lot of money because they're so close to the center of the city.
I was wondering where this was in Mobile so and I looked up the intersection at the beginning of the video. 0.75 miles from me. Its crazy what a huge difference a half-mile can make.
U are seeing neiborhoods that were decimated by 'flight'. They thrived in their day. See West Mobile, Daphne, and, u will see wealthy, vibrant communities where businesses prosper at expense of these neighborhoods. This is a tradition in some parts of the South and other cities, take out industry, move it to another part of the county. U will see this.
Thanks for the video. This is the former Davis Avenue area. It is now called, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Avenue. It started off in 1799. When Blacks started moving from the rural areas of Alabama they located in this area. There was no West Mobile. There are many churches located in this community. This was a thriving business district, especially during the 1940's. Business was booming. Big stars such as Ella Fitzgerald, Fats Domino, etc. Booker T. Washington had dinner at one of the homes in this area. There was 4 movie theatres, and every kind of business you can imagine. The black teachers, doctors and lawyers lived in this area. By 1909, there was not enough housing available in the area to accommodate the people. Some people lived on the city dump which was also in this area. The first housing projects were built here in the 1930's to get people off the dump. When people finished high school, many moved to the North for advancement. Upon the death of Martin Luther King this area took a downward turn. A history book was written called, AVENE, THE DAVIS AVENUE STORY.
We drove through here for a funeral. & there are worse places outside city limits. We drove down a dirt road & came upon a woman & child the woman was behind the child & had the girl’s dress lifted with one hand & a switch in the other which every few steps she hit that poor girl with on her bare bottom. Both of them shoeless with matted hair. The child was screaming & I have never forgotten the look of relish as she hit that child. My husband told me no we are not stopping & not too worry as that little girl would pay that woman back plenty as she got older. It really was an awful thing to see. He would not stop as who knows who else was inside that shack they lived in with a shotgun handy.
Shit even though it do look and is rough it look funnier and better than Ohio. Something bout the south climate and weather just make it better. It just be cold and windy and grey up here
If I lived there I’ll probably wake up every morning and cry myself back to sleep.. God bless the people who have to live there.
Very deep comment and I feel you! I would too

@@terrancecooley3165 you’ll see that in most ghettos. People car will cost more than the house.

I’ve always imagined the south as having old Victorian style houses from the 1800s
Imagined? What world do youlive in? Black democrats destroy the place they live in. Shoot each other ect.

I lived in Mobile from 1979-1995, and graduated from Baker High School in 1991. I lived in the Dawes Road area, it was really nice.

Looks like 20 years after an apocalypse 😢
Looked it up on Zillow and these houses go for around $50k. As low as $20k for a super trashy one.
Overall, mighty grim-looking.
Olá bom domingo!!!

Interesting house on the right of the old Chrysler New Yorker. 0:49

Cool story bro. At least they discipline their children. Unlike the single black moms in chicago raising drug addicts and murderers.
It’s definitely the dirty south. I’m from Pensacola.
Hard to believe that Gulf Shores is right around the corner. Thanks Chuck!

No money is being put into the city. They deserve better.
Yes sir that's the deep south I know. Much poverty
A country spending 10s of billions $ funding overseas wars lets its own citizens live like this 😏
You went to the heart of the matter, the problem that is noticeable is not the Republican or Democratic party
Isnt that the truth‼
The U.S. spent 4.4 trillion in social welfare in 2019. These neighborhoods are being funded by welfare. Welfare created this.

Is this Mobile or Prichard? A lot of people will go through Prichard and say it’s Mobile
One of the street signs said Rylands St, which according to Google Maps is in the Owens neighbourhood right next to central Mobile

Alabamy never surprises me anything goes in Alabamy
And i suppose philly is a wonderful clean thriving city?
This mane basically goes to each city and try to find the worst conditions possible but it’s also a better area that he stays away from
Well all those shot gun houses have new cars parked in front of them…smh
