In 2014, Pueblo was the start of our bicycletour to Portland Oregon. The city is located at the transamerica bicycleroute. We stayed two days, preparing our trip and we enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere, the people and the Arkansasriverarea. There are people saying that there is a lot of crime but we didn’t feel unsafe. We were more afraid of rattlesnakes and tarantula’s. Love from the Netherlands.
I agree. I've been to Pueblo 4 times and had a great time each visit. Every big city has it's good and bad locations. I used to live in Indianapolis, a city where the murder ratings exceeded Chicago. But I never had trouble, because I knew where to go and where not.

I work in the food service industry. Would it be hard to find a decent serving position in Pueblo? I just got back from Colorado and fell in love.
@@THCv3 I agree with you all the way. I wouldn't give you a nickel for the whole damn place. It's the murder capital of Colorado. Just give me the powder it would take to blow it to hell.
People avoid water due to the amount of dead people found in a year... I just use braided line. They might still have some cash on them man! Yay Runyon lake, the temporary cemetery of the often whacked gang people. Surf Fountain Creek!
@mike wazowski I'm trying to find out the same. Corruption, crime, drugs is in every city. I'm from southern California and am ready to relocate to Co. I will see for myself if it's that bad as people say it is.
All cities are corrupt shitholes. The whole damned country is a corrupt shithole. Find a place, love it, put effort into it, and don't be a weak dummy and things will be ok.
@@WestCoastFront we moved from Pueblo due to seeing used hypodermic needles laying around outside and people trying to break into your house while you're there
I have been to every place on this video. Regardless, Pueblo Colorado is a fucking shithole, BEYOND what you can imagine. With 23 countries and 46 states under my belt I can confidently say that Pueblo is only beaten for 1st place by third world countries. I lived in that fuck hole 11.5 years and the only thing good is the food.
I lived on the east side as a kid it was bad then and 10x worse now. Gangs, drugs, trashy property, . Besides the dry environment that doesn't produce grass and plants it's a brown dirt looking hell hole.
well actually, not perfect, but 2 presidential citations with American Red Cross disaster relief services, before I could drive, can make you a pressure device out of a blow up raft and duck tape, Triage you might look it up, not to mention that even though I forced uncle sam to expel my person from army intelligence, not only do I still have my benefits, an army achievement medal, I turned down # 2(the highest peacetime you can get), and the have to make special notation on my dd214 that my preferred status for re enlistment is not a mistake, how about you?
This is not Pueblo...show the real reality of Pueblo. It's a sad, lonely, depressing place. No arts and entertainment, not majestic or exciting. Pueblo is dry dirt and boring!!
I am a Denver native and moved here in 2017 to Pueblo. There is plenty of entertainment! The Chile & Frijoles festival, xmas festival, Sangre De Cristo Arts Center, Steel City Arts Center, places to hear live music, events year round on the Riverwalk, movies in the parks, a drive in theater, Steel museum, Rosemount victorian house mansion museum, El Pueblo museum, Pueblo Zoo & zoo lights with xmas/halloween, Pueblo Heritage History Museum, the xmas train at the beautiful, historic Pueblo Train Depot, the Raptor Center, the Arkansas River Trail Open Space, the Fountain Creek Trail Open Space, City Park, Mineral Palace Park and their pools in summer, the amusement park rides at City Park, Copper Mtn Family Fun Center, there's another family fun center near City Park, Pueblo State Park Reservoir and Open Space, lots of mom/pop stores and restaurants like Taffy's candy...these are all rattled off the top of my head. Sure, if you like to go on the town drinking and clubbing at night...lol...Pueblo is NOT for you! Maybe a big city, at least Denver. But if you like the outdoors and family oriented entertainment...my family has MORE fun here than we did in Denver!! It is not crowded and expensive like Denver either. I absolutely fell in LOVE with Pueblo, and love it more than my hometown Denver. Denver has become such a dump since it was invaded starting about 10-15yrs ago. Pueblo does have rough sides of town with poor folks. But it has lovely, beautiful, affordable nice sides of town too. I love how much less snow there is here compared to Denver too, and how the skies are more blue than in Denver, and the sun more golden. I live in a historic home, and the amount of historic preservation and care there is of history here really is amazing, and something I never saw in Denver where they bulldozed their history away. Pueblo is my quiet little haven, and probably is such because people like you talk about how bad it is. When I lived in Denver it was much more unsafe even in moderately nice areas. In Pueblo I can afford to live in a much nicer, safer neighborhood which I greatly appreciate. Sure I wouldn't go hang on the "east side" or down by Lake Minnequa in the night...but all cities have this. It is a shame the economy slugged once the factories like the steel mill slowed/shut down so there is a lot of Medicaid reimbursement down here...but overall the people down here are good people. They talk to me and are so much more friendly than in Denver. I am happy here, and would enjoy spending the rest of my days cozy tucked away in this sunny, laid back city! The big cities can have themselves, yuck!! Oh, and the dirt and brown you reference? It is not brown in the Arkansas River Valley, or if you use these things called sprinklers. But the natural areas that are not irrigated or by the river are SO beautiful too! Cacti, sage, blooming desert wildflowers, old cottonwoods in watery groves, cute skink lizards, foxes, coyotes, birds of all sorts, the tarantula migration to mate in fall, sparrow hawks, LOTS of natural beauty it is so cool! I love the high desert plateau eco system. My guess is if you were on welfare and lived in a poor area of Pueblo it probably would seem like a "dump"...but if you have a decent income/job and live in a nice area it is a city big enough to have things to do for fun, but still small enough to be super navigable with lots of beautiful outdoors/green spaces to relish.
@@phonziee If I were you I wouldn't move to Colorado. Too many people have come out here in recent decades, and the "trendy" areas of Colorado are expensive and filled in with traffic and high costs. You cannot go to the mountains in the areas near the Denver/Boulder/Co Spgs metro areas as the hoards of people that are there make it crowded and miserable compared to what it used to be like. There are lots of blue policies in Colorado, so taxes keep going up for things like using plastic bags or making online shopping orders, as well as a myriad of other ways. The homeless problem is BAD in Colorado too as the homeless come here for the services and legal weed. The blue govt here does not prosecute crimes. The state passed a law that stealing under $2k from a store is only a ticket offense IF you even get caught which is not likely. I am not a republican, I am independent, just saying that politically the Californian-mindset in the bigger cities dominate the political scene here and they make bad choices. Pueblo is one of the few decent, still affordable places where you can have stuff to do, but it is still a peaceful small town (but you do want to avoid the bad areas of town to live in). Other smaller towns like Canon City are getting more expensive too, and they have a lot less to do fun wise and store wise. Colorado Springs used to be nice, but it is crowded and over built up now too like the Denver area. Even as far north as Ft. Collins is expensive and crowded now. Castle Rock is too. I dunno about the western side of Colorado, but I do know places like Durango had a bunch of people move in too including wealthy folks so now it is super expensive and congested as well. Unless you have a lot of money, I would probably steer clear of Colorado, and would check out a pretty, affordable, misunderstood place like maybe a nice niche in Arkansas or eastern Kansas. If you did come to Pueblo to check it out and liked it...don't tell ANYONE about it! We NEED to keep this bad reputation going so invaders don't take over like Denver.

Great video~ I know those places.
I'm from Pueblo born and raised its not all that bad... As long as you surround yourself with positive people. ..

Whatever fuck tard you probably got beat up everyday and hate pueblo because it reminds you of how weak you are.

Part of it is out by Lake Pueblo, which is also the reservoir.
