I'm from Saint Paul, and let me tell you when I visited some areas in Atlanta, San Francisco L.A, Saint Louis, and Chicago it made the worst areas of the twin cities seem like middle class suburbs super shocking.
Exactly, Same goes for some parts of cali, they have such nice suburbs and houses there but just a few decades ago you'd get shot for wearing the wrong color there, i think the hood stereotype comes from Chicago Baltimore and some other places
@@lolsohard I'm from NY and there's gangs here where you get shot or jumped almost to death for wearing certain colors in the wrong areas, and I'm hearing Mlps and Saint Paul are way more dangerous than NYC including Bronx so if thats true then Minnesota must be extremely dangerous
In Minnesota it’s really confusing because, on a sunny day it looks super nice and friendly, but on the other hand cloudy days make it look like a shithole, I like it here but damn the weather really changes your view
Damn, I grew up right off Rice street. When I was young I didn't even see it as "hood", it was just how life was and I didn't know or need anything else.
@@mrhobs to explain that, it was kinda hard n shit, i used to live on the east side too, there was some shit going on around us, it was pretty hard but we just live how it is.
Loved livin in the eastside, but I know it was dangerous, heard gunshots everyday, my dads car got jacked couple a times, and swats even came to my neighbors houses cause they was doin some illegal shit. Even then still loved it, where I was born n raised
Rice Streeter, here, man. Ain't nothing like when I grew up there in the 70's and 80s. I left in 90 for the Army. Only visited when my parents were alive. Now I just Zoom call with everyone. Got no reason to go back.
Funny thing is i lived on hazelwood south of 94 with that as my backyard and the fenced in walkway as a jungle gym, if its still even there? Its been so long since I have been that way...childhood nostalgia 😥
i'm from midway, actually my profile photo is the university ave mcdonald's near my house. i don't think midway is a hood, but it is definitely much more diverse and historically black than richer parts of the city. it's getting really badly gentrified right now, disgusting to see.
6:19 I live about a block away from that pizza place lol. Overall it’s a nice place but there’s some stuff that be going on. My neighbors house was shot up last month and the block gets shut down every now and then.
He should have went to East St.Paul. that's where I was living at first. I used to always see needles from ppl shooting up laying on the sidewalk across from the Aldi's in east St. Paul. They had shootouts on the east side too.
@@ChiefLeaf89 oh ok. It wasn't too bad of a place to live when I lived there. I just wish I had found another neighborhood other then east st.paul to live in. But it's also hard being that I'm low income and finding something out on the west side of town which in my opinion is more expensive.
@Sarah Jane I don't think he's downing Charlie, but st.paul only has certain areas that are considered hoods or bad areas. And he just was not in the hood part. It is decieving to ppl like yourself who may have never lived in st.paul. to have ppl think that the area he's riding through is the hood when it's not.
Yah, anyone who says otherwise just wants to look cool for living in a "bad area" lol. Compared to many other big cities, particularly Chicago, you can walk anywhere and not worry about getting shot just for doing so. That sort of thing.
Minneapolis/St. Paul look nice because there's not a lot of trash and the cities clean up abandoned buildings but don't get me wrong shit goes down there are some neighborhoods you gotta watch yourself in.
St. Paul/ Minneapolis had lots of small business that employed factory workers, seamstress, metal makers, welders, tool & die, fabric workers, paper product producers, food processors--in neighborhoods

Anyone notice that maplewood neighboring north st paul is actually getting worse? I grew up there as a kid and it fucked me up man. All the schools in that district were completely brutal. Had been in many fights and got beat up and bullied for no reasons I was aware of.. both in and outside of school, everyone was just mean as fuck. Lots of drug use, vandalizing and burglary. And this was middle school years for me. After that 1 year of north st paul high school and then my family and I finally got the fuck out because shootings started being a regular thing close the school. Fast forward 10 years now whenever I return to the area I see how much of a slum its became. Everything looks run down, dirty and overgrown. All the kids I went to school with are into the worst drugs now.. even the few innocent kids that use to be my friends. Some went to jail and had very long sentences whom were just released recently. My best friend still lives there and he said his house was broken into once, his car was robbed and tires were taken. Sad and frustrating seeing your old home turn even worse. Maplehood now. ✌🏽
I lived in the area of maplewood tht was right next to northeast st paul (right off of Edgerton St. Semi close to payne-phylan) for a while and my grandparents continued to live there after for a while longer and it got worse and than better now its back to getting kind of bad
Driving around the capital is the hood of every city! Grew up in the community it’s historic ..Rhondo !! I will admit it’s not the same but my parents still live close to this area !! It’s not outrageous
I am 37 born and raised east side of Saint Paul Minnesota you used to be proud to say that you're from the East side 80's and 90's now you're ashamed of it!!!!!
I was scrolling through ur channel, saying to myself, I bet n I dont think mn would even be on ur page. Then I saw mn lmao 🤣 But hey! Mn isn't that bad compared to other cities in other states. The littering is not bad, only minor as no where is perfect but glad nowhere as bad
Yeah i lived here my whole life and while there is a higher crime rate this year compared to other years, it really ain't that bad. We just have a huge drug and homeless problem especially in the summer
@@deadeyedblack2350 St. Paul’s violent crime rates have been decreasing since 2000-2006. Minneapolis’ violent crime rates have always been higher. The lowest it’s been in decades was in 2018 at 792.7/100k.
Not really, but for about five months of the year you're looking at below freezing, a couple feet of snow and the sun going down at around 5 or 6pm. If you can handle winter, MN is a very, very nice state to live in. Just bring some cash though because the taxes are pretty high here!
The coldest winters of the contiguous states, but even though it is cold it actually doesn't snow all that much and there are a lot of sunny days during the winter. If you're not used to bone-chilling cold it will be shocking at first. Because the Twin Cities are so far north it does get dark very early in the dead of winter, which for some people means realizing that they have seasonal affective disorder. But if you can handle all of that, spring, summer, and fall are really nice. Especially fall.
The East Side, the best side. Roosevelt Homes, Bradley and Minnehaha, Fourth Street, Mt. Airy, and Shelby-Dale. Grew up there, and I miss it something terrible. It’s a rough part of town, but it’s home. Now I live in Edina...I miss the the feel on St. Paul’s small town nature St. Paul AIN’T that bad. Rice and Front tho? Bad.
@@jenchu5681 There are some parts that are good. Anywhere near 3rd and Maria, Maria and 7th, Bates and 3rd, or along East 7th until Arcade are Sketchy. If you go near Mounds Parkway, Pacific, or near Old Hudson is better. The area is gentrifying so there are some really nice, fixed up homes around there. When I lived on Fourth and Maria in the early 90s it was crack zone, but it’s better now. But you got some really sketchy areas of Dayton’s Bluff and some nice areas. I myself miss living over there And it’s Mayberry compared to the worst hoods in Brooklyn
Minnesota is a very rich state. There are practically no hoods in Minnesota, even if you want to buy a house in the so called “hoods” (or the houses that you see in this video) the minimum is $300k.
That’s cap as fuck. There’s a house on East Side St. Paul rn for 75k 😂😂😂 There was just a home invasion where 7 people were held hostage on the East side and someone was killed. There was 2 swat teams called in 2 days. Tell me the East Side isn’t the hood. You obviously don’t know how cities work. Every big city needs a place for the poor people to live. And Minnesota is a blue state. There won’t be much punishment for very serious crimes
I'm moving to St Paul from NYC Brooklyn, its really bad here in a lot of areas and I heard mlps and even saint paul are even worse if that's true I might not move there if its worse than Brooklyn and Bronx bad neighborhoods it must be really bad
@@lolsohard I guess that's what makes NYC bad, in the basement areas they don't care if you mind your own business the trouble will come to you ppl get shot or stabbed for no reason just BC of a petty argument or them thinking you're in some gang when you're just an innocent civilian
Worked on Rice Street for a few years back in the early 80's. The pride on Rice Street was second to nothing. Interesting that gas was $1.98. Keep voting in folks that will keep you down.
I honestly dont think its as bad as people are making it out, Ive lived in san antonio, tulsa, minneapolis. and all 3 are alot "worse" imo. The worst I deal with is people smoking spice on the trains lol since they cant afford real weed, that fuckin stuff stinks buy some real buds.
I love your videos, but a lot of these places weren't the hood. I lived in St. Paul from 88' - 94 (age 2 thru 8) and go back to visit family several times a year. I moved to Southern Cali from MN and grew up there and stayed for a bit of my adulthood until the Army. I still go back to visit my huge family all throughout the Midwest all the time. Places like Toledo, Chicago, East Saint Louis, Detroit, St. Louis, etc. I actually lived right near some places in this video. They are still very safe middle class neighborhoods, compared to the other cities I listed, and the other cities you make videos on.
@@randygunn9499 That’s true. But my kid was in the SPED system, and I was very unhappy with the way they handled his education...It was more the district than the schools. I almost had to take them to court so my son could get services from another district that offered the programs that they refused to give him.
Anokas a suburb of minneapolis.... Has a downtown... Really nice place that still has a urban feel.... Brooklyn center or park might be an option... And to be fair living in the city up there isnt bad at all... Me and my girl are from detroit and we think its funny what they concider "the hood"
DMN DMN Check out Roseville, White Bear Lake, Woodbury, Oakdale just to name a few... If you moving from Chicago all of these locations you’ll be able to live in real comfortable, and still be close or within 30 minutes to get to done hood life when you want to... I’m from St.Paul but live in White Bear Lake now, good luck to you!
North Minneapolis, FrogTown, East Side St Paul, West Side St Paul to get yourself familiar with the hoods, then maybe in 3 years Maplewood, Oakdale, Woodbury (Tango Sushi is very good), Blaine, Coon Rapid, White bear lake, then maybe another 3 years Lake Elmo, Minnetonka, Chaska,
@@Emi-sb4qd please reread the thread. If your still don't get it, ask an adu to explain it to you. Minneapolis is a mediocre town in the middle of nowhere populated by mostly simple-minded idiots who have never experienced life outside Minnesota.
@GlockBoy Sota bwahaha. its only imaginary cleveland has well more than twice the murder rate of minneapolis and registers over 1300 shootings a year. youre an idiot.
No disrespect to the hoods of Minnesota but this look really nice if I drove up I wouldn't even notice this was the hood this don't even look like the trenches
You def right, we have a very nice state, almost no abandoned buildings, trash, etc. No "trenches" just dangerous in pockets like most places, shits a little crazy now tho because of the riots, but i hope that changes soon
I've lived in Minneapolis Minnesota almost thirty-one years the day I watched looters burn lake street down the back on fire everything took a toll on my life it broke my husband heart to see so up at one point my life I wanted to kill myself PTSD took over me long story short my brother drove from east coast to Minnesota to move our belongings Sense ive left my life is so much better my husband working to jobs and we just moved own apartment God has my back 🙏🙏🙏
@@tanky1646 Charlie didn’t even go all the way down b way over North. Minneapolis is a whole different ball game from St.Paul when it comes to crime. Minneapolis had 80 bodies in 2020 and St.Paul had 30.
@@glitch30rnd definitely not a different ballgame, they're basically the same city. frogtown/near eastside is the exact same as north minneapolis/chicago & franklin, just smaller
You missed Midway. And like 2-3 weeks ago by Wheelock pkwy E and White Bear Ave same night some crazy lady was shoveling snow into the middle of the street and some dude was hiding behind his van door watching or waiting for something. Oh yeah and then by lake Phalen that night 3 ppl in full on outfits and masks walked onto the ice and disappeared, but that was probably some nerds or something doing cosplay 😂

Welcome to St Paul and Minnesota. There is a lot of things to see and do and a lot of them are free.

@@jenchu5681 There are some parts that are good. Anywhere near 3rd and Maria, Maria and 7th, Bates and 3rd, or along East 7th until Arcade are Sketchy. If you go near Mounds Parkway, Pacific, or near Old Hudson is better. The area is gentrifying so there are some really nice, fixed up homes around there. When I lived on Fourth and Maria in the early 90s it was crack zone, but it’s better now. But you got some really sketchy areas of Dayton’s Bluff and some nice areas. I myself miss living over there
And it’s Mayberry compared to the worst hoods in Brooklyn
West side st paul is where we hold it down
westside niggas fake ash big eastside
@Mike Jones the west the opp side
It reminds me of Baltimore in a way...
Charlie I appreciate you my man. 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Looks like a pretty nice city. The cars look okay and there isn't any trash about. A bit of a boring ride this time.
Its dangerous in pockets
MAGA - Many Are Getting Angry ! 😠
This one might be more true than too many people realize.
Lol I don't disagree with you but...Biden - Bring In Dummy Expect Nothing
@@mattmichaels5195 Biden's trash.
That seems more accurate at least right now that said we should all be hopeful and things will get better
@@GeeEm1313 all policitcs are trash wake the fuck up
St Paul hoods aren’t as bad as Minneapolis
For sure. East and West St.Paul are really safe compared to North Minneapolis.
@@glitch30rnd Camden area isn't bad.
@@archiesimpson5172 Most of North Minneapolis is extremely dangerous. A lot of yuppies who don’t live in these communities will lie to Out of towners.
@@glitch30rnd We lived in Camden back in the aughties. It was a safe little pocket.
@@archiesimpson5172 It’s 2021, the 80s were a long time ago and Minneapolis is completely different.
Minnesota is a very rich state. There are practically no hoods in Minnesota, even if you want to buy a house in the so called “hoods” (or the houses that you see in this video) the minimum is $300k.
I could go cop one of these houses for less than 150 ya goof
@@queasyislander0274 there is absolutely no way you can find a house in Minneapolis or st paul for less than $275k no matter what the house looks like
I agree with you about Minnesota having hoods. Minnesota doesn’t have hoods, just bad areas/cities.
500k now
That’s cap as fuck. There’s a house on East Side St. Paul rn for 75k 😂😂😂 There was just a home invasion where 7 people were held hostage on the East side and someone was killed. There was 2 swat teams called in 2 days. Tell me the East Side isn’t the hood. You obviously don’t know how cities work. Every big city needs a place for the poor people to live. And Minnesota is a blue state. There won’t be much punishment for very serious crimes
Damn gas was $1.98
St Paul hoods aren't dangerous only the east side is yoruble
You Trippin didn’t you see all the 👮♀️ on rice street thats Frogtown
St Paul is pretty safe...ppl won’t bother you unless it’s personal or you get caught up in a personal altercation.
That USE to be the case. There have been daily attacks and robberies for the last 3 years. You wouldn't know if your form of transportation is a car.
East Saint Paul is different
I'm moving to St Paul from NYC Brooklyn, its really bad here in a lot of areas and I heard mlps and even saint paul are even worse if that's true I might not move there if its worse than Brooklyn and Bronx bad neighborhoods it must be really bad
Lots of respect here thankfully, you don't mess with people, people usually won't mess with you.
@@lolsohard I guess that's what makes NYC bad, in the basement areas they don't care if you mind your own business the trouble will come to you ppl get shot or stabbed for no reason just BC of a petty argument or them thinking you're in some gang when you're just an innocent civilian
Worked on Rice Street for a few years back in the early 80's. The pride on Rice Street was second to nothing. Interesting that gas was $1.98. Keep voting in folks that will keep you down.
I honestly dont think its as bad as people are making it out, Ive lived in san antonio, tulsa, minneapolis. and all 3 are alot "worse" imo. The worst I deal with is people smoking spice on the trains lol since they cant afford real weed, that fuckin stuff stinks buy some real buds.
This is definitely not the hood
I love your videos, but a lot of these places weren't the hood. I lived in St. Paul from 88' - 94 (age 2 thru 8) and go back to visit family several times a year. I moved to Southern Cali from MN and grew up there and stayed for a bit of my adulthood until the Army. I still go back to visit my huge family all throughout the Midwest all the time. Places like Toledo, Chicago, East Saint Louis, Detroit, St. Louis, etc. I actually lived right near some places in this video. They are still very safe middle class neighborhoods, compared to the other cities I listed, and the other cities you make videos on.
OMG! I joined this channel when it was bout 50k sub. Bout time you hit my citiy! St.Paul!
Aye I’m from the west side soowoop Saint Paul
I've lived in the city my entire life,I've been to almost every state in the country, I'll always come home to St.Paul
Yup! I don’t live in St. Paul. Miss it tho...But the schools are lousy and I wanted better schools for my kids,
@@paisleyprincess7996 some! Some schools are that way,but you can go to any school not just the ones in your district.Any!
@@randygunn9499 That’s true. But my kid was in the SPED system, and I was very unhappy with the way they handled his education...It was more the district than the schools. I almost had to take them to court so my son could get services from another district that offered the programs that they refused to give him.
Man this is like a first class neighborhood in Baltimore 😂
There was apparently a shooting just yesterday here in St. Paul. I’m visiting Minneapolis with my girlfriend
This is poorest area’s still is beautiful and high standards .
Yes yes. You’re in our neighbor of the other half of the Twin Cities (Minneapolis)
Like your videos but sometimes you can tell that you don't even know we're the hoods are !!!! And you don't talk or say anything why?
Before 2005 Minnesota was a good place to live after Katrina all those southern Africans moved up here and turned into another Atlanta
aww man he just drove into my child hood gastation
I wanna see CharlieBo step his game up & tour hoods in London like Brixton i went there years ago it was the most grimy part of London
I remember seen you dissing London. Atleast you know it’s not all tea and crumpets here
@@GangGang2x Yeah but yall different over there here in Chicago it's all about the gun play in London yall about knives 😂
@@chination1796 true that, we do got guns too but a shank is way cheaper and accessible over here. Ngl I’ve always wanted to hit up the chi
Oh yes!!! ma ma's pizza!!! Rice and front streets best pizza in town!!! Well worth the danger!!!
@MitchellSchaff you are right that is the best pizza in town i have been ordering from them for years
Red's Savoy Pizza had great pizza too, sucks that they closed
@@FargoMarc i agree
Danger? That's a nice area.
@@FargoMarc the original one closed. There are several others tho, all around the metro.
Seems reserved.
Thinking about moving to Saint Paul MN what are some good suburban locations. Plan to visit next year moving from Chicago
Anokas a suburb of minneapolis.... Has a downtown... Really nice place that still has a urban feel.... Brooklyn center or park might be an option... And to be fair living in the city up there isnt bad at all... Me and my girl are from detroit and we think its funny what they concider "the hood"
bloomington and richfield are nice too
Stay away from North Minneapolis and you’ll be good. Don’t tweak with Somalis in South Minneapolis either.
DMN DMN
Check out Roseville, White Bear Lake, Woodbury, Oakdale just to name a few...
If you moving from Chicago all of these locations you’ll be able to live in real comfortable, and still be close or within 30 minutes to get to done hood life when you want to...
I’m from St.Paul but live in White Bear Lake now, good luck to you!
North Minneapolis, FrogTown, East Side St Paul, West Side St Paul to get yourself familiar with the hoods, then maybe in 3 years Maplewood, Oakdale, Woodbury (Tango Sushi is very good), Blaine, Coon Rapid, White bear lake, then maybe another 3 years Lake Elmo, Minnetonka, Chaska,
Would like to see more of St. Paul and Minneapolis, those are my favorite cities.
When you see your house in this vid
😭😭 it really aint so bad out here
oh stop it. i grew up in cleveland and now live in minnecrapolis. despite what they say, there are n real hoods here.
North Minneapolis.
@@selfhelp9685 exactly. If you think north Minneapolis is a hood, then you should get out more as you ain't got a clue.
You’re from Cleveland and calling Minneapolis crap? lmao
@@Emi-sb4qd please reread the thread. If your still don't get it, ask an adu to explain it to you. Minneapolis is a mediocre town in the middle of nowhere populated by mostly simple-minded idiots who have never experienced life outside Minnesota.
@GlockBoy Sota bwahaha. its only imaginary cleveland has well more than twice the murder rate of minneapolis and registers over 1300 shootings a year. youre an idiot.
Get out of my hood 🥰🥰🥰
da fuck

LOL!

Lol
I lived on east side for a bit. Wasnt as bad as milwaukee. Arcade was a lil crappy and I think I heard dog fighting once.
No midway? That's where most the shit go down lately, midway an rice st.
No disrespect to the hoods of Minnesota but this look really nice if I drove up I wouldn't even notice this was the hood this don't even look like the trenches
You def right, we have a very nice state, almost no abandoned buildings, trash, etc. No "trenches" just dangerous in pockets like most places, shits a little crazy now tho because of the riots, but i hope that changes soon
I grew up on Dale an Selby in the 50's an early 60's.and it was rough area then

I've lived in Minneapolis Minnesota almost thirty-one years the day I watched looters burn lake street down the back on fire everything took a toll on my life it broke my husband heart to see so up at one point my life I wanted to kill myself PTSD took over me long story short my brother drove from east coast to Minnesota to move our belongings Sense ive left my life is so much better my husband working to jobs and we just moved own apartment God has my back 🙏🙏🙏
why did it effect you so much? are you or one of your family members a pig or something?
Homie was too scared to go to a real hood. Drove down rice street and called it a hood😂😂😂
Nigguh saint paul ain’t scary😂😂😂 tf is you talking bout bro been thru worse spots.. even over north he hit sum serious blocks..
@@tanky1646 Charlie didn’t even go all the way down b way over North. Minneapolis is a whole different ball game from St.Paul when it comes to crime. Minneapolis had 80 bodies in 2020 and St.Paul had 30.
@@glitch30rnd definitely not a different ballgame, they're basically the same city. frogtown/near eastside is the exact same as north minneapolis/chicago & franklin, just smaller
@@noahg2307 North Minneapolis is the most area in the state by far. East STP doesn’t compare I use to live right off Payne.
@@glitch30rnd if frogtown was as big as north minneapolis, there would be just as much crime, it's just smaller is all I'm sayin
CharlieBo313, got haters already? ))) Nice work, bro, very nice! Thank you!
You must not watch enough of his videos, like when he talks to the youth.
I’m in those same streets off rice street every single day. You’ll be jus fine as long as you ain’t involved in no bullshit.
When did downtown become a hood
Next time Case and Payne Maryland and Edgerton
Now that’s a rough area. Wasn’t as bad when I was a kid
I know all about both cities i was born in Minneapolis and raised on both sides south and north
Maybe you didn't take a stroll down 50 ma'am.
Just look at Baltimore from the highway.
This place will always be home
You missed Midway. And like 2-3 weeks ago by Wheelock pkwy E and White Bear Ave same night some crazy lady was shoveling snow into the middle of the street and some dude was hiding behind his van door watching or waiting for something. Oh yeah and then by lake Phalen that night 3 ppl in full on outfits and masks walked onto the ice and disappeared, but that was probably some nerds or something doing cosplay 😂
Used to buy drugs in that holiday parking lot u pulled into by como lmao. It's rough around railroad island too
