Back in 2019 I was driving from New York to Texas and decided to spend the night in Baltimore since it was already 2am. So I GPS a motel 6 and it brings me right through the rough part of Baltimore. I have seen many poor neighborhoods in the country but this struck me seeing many homes that were half boarded up in one unit while the other one was still occupied. Just an overall vibe of a tough life there and neglect due to poverty and low income and you can imagine the high crime that occurs. I arrived to my motel and of course you had to speak to the clerk through a tiny window and they wanted a $75 deposit. I was about to get the room but then started having second thoughts about the room probably being dirty with bugs in it and perhaps my car being vandalized or gone in the morning. So I changed my mind and went to another Motel 6 in a cleaner part of town that didn't require a deposit and was actually $10 cheaper for the room. And not to talk bad about the people of Baltimore,I'm sure there are a lot of good folks there but it was really something to feel the energy and vibe of those streets.
Thank you for being able to separate the people from the systemic problem. The majority of people are good people, just like anywhere else. All it takes is a small percentage of people to stir shit up and make the whole thing look really bad. That small percentage of people exists everywhere. Baltimore just has physical factors that make it harder to control than other places.
@@steventhehistorianIs there a looney bin in West Baltimore? Why are there so many psychopaths situated in this part of town? Is half of the population deaf there? Why are there so many women always shouting and screaming at 120 decibels? And gawddam butt ugly!
@@steventhehistorianI agree about it being a small percentage of people but I don't agree about it being everywhere at least not to the same percentage level. There are areas of the country that have 97% lower crime rate than the national average and other areas that are 100% higher than the national average. That's per capita so it's not the same
In My small city old deserted , run down, destroyed houses and buildings are being torn down, it leaves empty spaces covered with green lawn and trees are left to continue to grow. It really makes a difference, neighborhoods stay nice and safer. There are new apartment buildings going up and new homes are being built in the empty spaces ( 100 houses being built ).
Yeah that would be terrifying as fuck, I will say he does have the advantage of being a black male in this neighborhood. White dudes like me would get tore the fuck up here 😂 and Chicago, my cousin told me he couldn't go down some blocks because he was white
W dudes have lived in baltimore for over 300 years. The modern ones look w only at particular angles. They claim there full w but they don’t even know who there dad or grandad is.
Yeah man, I'm from D.C but we used to hang out with some our people out in West Bodymore, Eutaw Street MLK Blvd, don't fuck around too much out there... but, I'd tell you the same about the DMV (D.C., MD, VA).
@@kdyy3Hard to say, people from both cities respect each other and national crime ranking shit will bounce both cities up and below each other depending on what crimes they're looking at most. I've met people in both cities with slugs in their bodies or self-surgery pullin that shit out, no health insurance and no desire to get cops involved. Fuckin wild af... seen friends in Southeast D.C. blast at each other's feet over a stupid argument. Found a body in the highway median shot the fuck up in Alexandria, VA, and MS-13 chopping people's heada and hands off... Whatever you do, if you don't know people out in a certain area, don't try any dumb shit for real, and be more afraid of them young bucks ages 14-19, they are always down to hit a lick or blast somebody to make a point. I learned to mind my business and only hang where my people hang. You can even be in nice areas and some shit can happen, Inner Harbor Baltimore or Georgetown in D.C. are nice areas, but people get blasted out in these places too... I'm glad I got out with my life and lots of wild experiences, but with some forethought I wouldn't repeat it... it's like rollin' the dice out in both places.
@@kdyy3 To me, since I ain't from there, Baltimore. You won't find my ass walking around without having a purpose. Point A -> Point B. But, people from both cities have a very big respect for each other, nobody tries any dumb shit while visiting. And, if you are talking rankings, D.C. and Baltimore are always trading places. Last year (2023), D.C. was worse than Baltimore and Detroit, it was fucked the fuck up. You get bumrushed in both cities everywhere you go, and the reality is these cities are real similar. Unless you are in VA or MD, you don't get big organized gangs like Bloods, Crips, MS-13, 18th Street etc., in D.C. just like Baltimore it is all local street crews, and these young cats are way more dangerous and unpredictable. Even living in Europe, I meet people from the U.S. who went to D.C. for a day and got jacked, were left with friends of friends and got mugged anyway... Baltimore and D.C. are both just wild-out cray af... just don't go there without people around you and don't visit hoods like a zoo, people hate that shit. Otherwuse, just don't fuck around at night, you should be fine in either city.
@@kdyy3 Yo, man, I replied twice but these YT fools keep taking it down. Baltimore and D.C. are real real similar, tbh. One goes up the crime rankings one year, then the other... both cities seem helpeless to fix their crime, and both cities are run by local street crews, not big national and international gangs like out in VA and MD where you get Bloods, Crips, MS-13, 18th Street etc. If you visit either, just go from Point A -> Point B and don't visit hoods like a zoo, people hate that and you can get jammed up for real. My advice, don't go to either with intnetion to live some kinda "gangsta fantasy", you gonna have a bad day... 😄 But, both cities are cool, for me they are both home, love people and the way of life there, but it ain't for everyone and laying low and being cool is your best option always.

I'm from West Baltimore. Walbrook Junction to be exact. My moms sent me to Long Beach, CA when i was 17 cause i was wildin tf out. Thanks ma! The females in Cali made sure i wasn't homesick too long. Anyways, I ain't been back home in several years and I ain't been in touch with anybody I used to run them streets with that's still alive. I be wondering if the police still ride around black neighborhoods on f'n horses in the summertime in Baltimore. Can anybody tell me in this comment section if they do?! That's one thing that i always hated and another reason I ain't ever going back. Even when i was little i was getting slavery vibes whenever I'd see a white cop riding around my neighborhood on a horse. What they used to do on plantations?! Ride around on horses lookin to make sure niccas were doing what they were supposed to. If a slave wasn't bein productive enough, he was getting either whipped or shot. Same shyt I grew up seeing. I miss the times i had back home growing up but I always hated Baltimore because of the racism and non diversity which in my opinion the violence coinsides with.
