Crazy part about being an Atlanta native home grown is that , when you from these type of environments. You be shamed for doing the best you can to get away from these places .
@@teeshtaddybee3071 I go to several reservations every day and they all have pretty nice looking homes and buildings. But also keep in mind that reservations here in Canada are supposed to be "independent nations" and the chiefs who receive more than enough money to maintain should be using that money towards benefiting the reservations.
Yep that’s true especially on the west side of town because they act as if people getting uppity when they make the decisions for themselves to relocate to a safer side of town. For example I use to live in Zone 6 over Candler-McAfee and then Belvedere Park rougest hoods on the east side to now living in Tucker near Clairmont Road and we finally get to experience what it’s like no longer living in the hood no more
The trees are very good to have for shade during summer..and for bbqs and not to mention kids from the hood climbs trees for fun with their friends im from Florida and Atlanta is just like our lil towns around hear😋😋
Luckyy, i was born in Atlanta and lived there for 7 years until my parents divorced, then we moved to Texas for 1 year, and then we moved again, to California 😒 (I miss Georgia😔)
I remember working for a oxygen company in atl and one night I get to East atl and turn down a road with it blocked off by 50 sum dudes playing dice. I reversed and clocked out for the day lmfaooo
I live in the hood in Atlanta. I take great care of my home and yard. I have neighbors that have young relatives living in the other homes in my neighborhood. Throwing your garbage in the yard or constant stealing isn’t poor .It’s absolutely laziness and not acting human. I speak up every time I catch one littering and they don’t care. Atlanta has always had a great economy and they chose to be sub human. If you doubt me.... I live in SW Atlanta near Oakland city.
Nobody doubt you my friend. After picking up and dropping off people in your area for 3 years doing Uber and even getting gasoline and shopping for snacks and drinks in your area it just floors me how much garbage people throw on the streets The yards and it bus stops and no one lifts a finger to get it remedied. When I work for a factory here in Conyers Georgia 23 years ago, there was a saying from lazy geechees that went like this: I ain't got time for that shit. Still holds true today.
Broken window theory seems to be accurate. Seems as if nobody feels the need to pick up trash, let alone do the lawn Yet luxury cars are high on the priority list...
I was in Atlanta visiting family. And I came across the nicest people, they held doors open for me in the stores, said hi to me as I walked by, I felt more welcome there than in my own state. I would love to go back to visit!
The sad thing about this video is the houses. All the history in them.. what kind of families were raised in them when they were new? What memories were made in them? I always think about those kind of things when I see neighborhoods like these. And now they’re all collapsing and some of them just need the yard cut, edged, bushes trimmed, side walks pressure washed and some paint on the houses.

Fam, love the videos and think it’s dope that you actually drive all over the country. Why don’t you get a 360 camera which would allow the viewers the ability to control what they actually see when you are driving down the street and these ally’s... sometimes when you pass 45 dudes on a porch with their granny we’d like to see their reactions if any. 💪🏾💪🏾
I still remember the day I arrived at U.S., my friend picked me up and drove through those hoods in Atlanta to avoid the traffic jam on I-75. The first impression is that GTA is real.
My comment might be out of place but in my perspective as a Latino i'm watching those big houses separated each one from another with gardens and many fresh green areas and i think to my self: damn.. i wish could live somewhere alike, how Americans don't apreciate what they have anymore i mean look how fucked up the world is out there, US and Canada are some of the few places where you can see these types of Neighbourhoods, in Latin-America there are few exclusive for the high class while the rest of houses are small sticked together with no gardens i'd even dare to say these hoods are a heaven compared to the poor zones in Central America where people live in sheet huts and no mention of the "Salvatruchas", in Europe they ran out of big houses a long time ago, come on Russia is the total opposite of this, there everyone lives in small appartments some very sad and dull with no green areas and so on with many other places around the Globe so i can't believe these type of neighborhoods have become dangerous but well, it seems the world is getting worst all the time...
Ernesto. You need to think beyond your current state. Aspire. Videos like this should show you where you never want to be in life. Get career. Get an education. Stack assets. Don't get married and definitely don't have kids. You will dominate your life. It's not about the "Latin-American" community. It's about you.
I grew up in Atlanta. Graduated from North Springs High School up Roswell Road. Worked for Marietta Cobb County DPS. This looks like the south side of town. Nice to see everyone driving new cars.
@@trapmuzik6708 1983 I was the drum section leader in band. I wanted to play sports but couldn’t because of a birth defect. Still, I had a great time at North Springs. It helped me to go on and earn 2 engineering degrees from U of H in Houston. I work overseas mostly. Usually in the Middle East but also Africa. I can’t say enough good about the school. I don’t know if you remember Mrs. Ellis or not. I was on a flight from Venice Italy and kept staring at her on a shuttle bus from one plane to another. I finally asked her if she was Mrs. Ellis. Keep in mind that this was back in 2010. I barely remembered what she looked like. As soon as she spoke, I remembered her voice and knew it was her. She looked at me and said, my God, you are John Rohrer. After all those years, she still remembered who I was. I told her that I was on my way back home to Las Vegas and that I worked in the offshore petrochemical industry for ExxonMobil. Just goes to show that it’s a small world.
This video is a testament to the need for construction, landscaping and realty knowledge to be spread throughout the hoods of America. Not just for the sake of self-employment but mainly for the purpose of self care. Our neighborhoods are our responsibility. No one is going to leave their nice suburban communities to come and clean and renovate our raggedy neighborhoods for us! It's a shame that so many black people believe that this is a normal way for human beings to live. Then again, the only places we lived before the hoods of America were the plantations of America. Speaking of which, it's interesting that the most churches and religious institutions in the U.S.A are located in the ghettos. Each one claiming to contain the "power" of God. Yet, they lack the power to bring Black people out of the slave mentality that has plagued them for five centuries. Nearly two churches on every block yet our neighborhoods are the most hellish places in the country outside of the prisons!
It isn't true that black people in America have had a slave mentality for centuries. They've had it since the 1960s, when the rise of the welfare state led to dependency, single motherhood, unemployment and misbehavior. Before that, the quality of life for black people was increasing, even with racism.
Guga big Facts black people were thriving after slavery ended we had our own business we had the black Wall Street Lol , the efficiency and number of black business were booming , the average black family had a house car an were very smart with money coming right after a time we’re we had an owned nothing so we took care of our stuff an Raised our family properly .. after finally being given rights an opportunity to establish wealth we didn’t take it for granted , we started becoming more productive then white familes ....but we we’re so concerned about what the white people had and they used that against us , They started to see us ( the black market ) as a Opportunity to make even more money 💴 ...Y treat them bad an make money when we can trick em to thinking we treating them good and MAKE MORE MONEY BY SELLING STUFF TO THEM ,You know since they wanna be apart of this country as a equal So bad ...you see we’re I’m going with this lol basically it’s like why kill the flies when we can allow The Flies In The House Then Sell everyone Flytraps💡
Wrong. Sorry Hannibal but you're wrong. There is no need for teaching construction and landscaping. You will agree. just watch. how is it we can get someone from south of the border and give them a job doing those things and before they can pick up the language they're an expert in those fields? Those are the easiest things to learn. it doesn't need taught. when you have 365 days a year, let's go 180 good days with every neighborhood street having 12 kids playing basketball, on every street section... that's alot of kids. If they're not already taking bricks from the trashed house and fixing up grandma's stoop, they're never going to. if they're not grabbing rakes and cleaning the yards they're not going to. If they're not taking machetes and cutting limbs off overgrown trees, they're not going to. Yet they'll watch as the migrant comes in not speaking any english and keep watching by the time he's got his own commercial truck with a registered business license and has a crew of 30 with 20 lawn tractors. Teaching them isn't going to change it. If they wanted that skill they'd make it happen.

Charlie, Charlie, Charlie. Some tough looking places, there in Atlanta. I know you must be careful, you keep posting videos, so you still make it thru the mean streets of the US. I watch your videos like I've never watched anything else, can't stop watching. Thanx for your time and efforts.
@Jose Chivo mostly maybe, but i was in east oakland recently, just working trying to find an address and someone shot at my car! in broad daylight! i feel lucky but sometimes its best to just avoid these areas all together
I see all kinds of people just hanging around on the street. If you have time to lean; you have time to clean. Get a broom, rake, shovel ...anything. .Help get that neighborhood back together. Take some pride in your surroundings.
Honest question...why is it in every hood you film, the people that live there are always standing in the middle of the street to have full conversations? Then they act inconvenienced when the have to move out of the way for a car passing through. They do know there are sidewalks right?
Always wonder about the people living in the random houses that are perfectly maintained with beautiful yards. Are they trapped knowing they are never going to be able to sell? How do they stand looking at the filth around them?
Honestly most home owners in the city don't really have interest in selling their homes. Its more about the sentimental value, people worked hard to be able to purchase homes especially blacks in the south they do that on the hopes of having something to leave for their family, with the expectations that the family will upkeep and do the same as they did and pass it along to the future generations.
@@jasoncardwell8535 I don't see that happening here in Atlanta of what you put in the last sentence of your post. The big reason why I don't see that happening: too many single parent families. And there's a bunch of 70 years ago you had a 15% of the population were single parent families. Now that figure is 74%. How do you cultivate discipline when the mothers don't know how to close their legs? It's a vicious cycle and it goes on at year after year after year. And the black churches won't address it because they don't want to offend their congregation.
Your program is so good but I guess you could talk something about the places and some interviews as you already in Boston or Chicago I don't remember precisely...but congrets felow
@#KEEPDREAMING# fucking yikes!!!! Why did you go off on that person like that for making a subtle statement??? That was un called for stupid ass!!! 👎🏾😡
They don't know the real meaning of life! Just ignorant with no home training and no morals, or no pride in their neighborhoods! Anybody should know how to keep their yard up and clean up around their houses, what's hard about that?
4:45 INTO this video and shit gets real, real. I always find terrible neighborhoods very interesting. Just because you are poor does not mean you have to live like a slob. I learned this from my grandmother who didn’t have two nickels to rub together yet she still kept her small, old row home in South Philly nice and clean. No money does not equal living in trash piles. No money does not mean not giving a shit about your neighborhood and just letting everything go to hell. Have some pride and dignity. Be part of the solution not part of the problem! Get off your ass and decide today I’m going to do something positive to move my life forward. As opposed to sitting around all day doing nothing but drinking 40’s and smoking blunts. I don’t care what color your skin is. Do it for yourself. Do it for your family. Do it for your sense of self worth.
It amazes me too. Like a lost (or never existing) sense of pride in your neighborhood. Go sweep some sidewalks or remove some brush, dispose of some garbage. Little daily steps can make a difference. It's disheartening, I'm sure it's not been like this from the beginning.
a good message to spread especially to the punk above who loves talking about cats taking a s*** in the toilet when they really can do that type of thing racist motherfukers like that definitely deserve to have themselves dragged in the middle of the street with a rope tied around their neck covered in tar and feathers now that would be a real Hood treat
Self-worth. That's at the heart of all this. When you don't see a future, you don't prepare for one. When you fail to prepare, you prepare to fail. Vicious cycle.
I had the best experience as I made my first steps in a South Florida projects complex. My aunt lives there for around 17 years since she migrated from East Europe. I grew up myself in a good district around entrepreneur and lawyers and doctors in a suburban city in a metropolitan region in Germany. At that time I was 23 years old and worked out a lot so I was 240 lbs and 6' 1'' and of course caucasian with a short military haircut. I just simply looked like a cop. As I made the first step in this hood everyone penetrated my body with their stare. After that they all went back home, because they believe I was an undercover cop or some FBI or CIA agent, because I am fluent in French, German, Polish, English and Russian.
Get u a whip like the other person said why would u depend on someone else to give u a ride plus Atlanta got trains with multiple lines and a decent bus line and taxi cabs
Good video Charlie the hood here in Alanta which is the south. Look worse than some hoods in the north and better than some hoods in the north. WOW man.
Beautiful greenery, trees & shrubs. Not taking care of your property is a depressed mindset. Until that changes, these neighborhoods will continue to decline. Very sad indeed.
I was watching this sometimes thinking "this looks like a nice street, loads of trees and grass. Houses don't look bad" car turns a corner and the houses are falling down
I visited Natchez, Miss and the same thing. You go to the rough areas and you forget you are in the United States. It really is sad how these places look like time stood still.
Thankyou finally ...i was getting tired of reading these comments ..they probably in they childhood home/place and hanging with childhood friends like whats wrong with hanging with friends with loud music...
Americans really hate poor Americans what a dumb country we live in instead of uplift they just talked down while the government steals everybody's tax money and doesn't put it back in the community
To the contrary, Dr. King was fatalistic about the world. Privately, he expected to die sooner rather than later. I don't think ghetto slums in Atlanta would shock him.
The house at 4:13 on the left with the awning is really cute. They are trying. Reminds me of mine a bit of my house. I am dealing with the same problems... the house on my one side is worth about $5k, there is a park on the other side which is fine... most of the time, and the house next to the park is boarded up.
They arent minding their business. If they were their neighborhood and houses wouldn't look like this. Part of minding your business is maintaining your shit

Yeah my mother come from a family of 13 and my father a family of 7. They both from SC. I got relatives there, Charlotte, Paterson NJ, Philadelphia, Buffalo, 1 cousin in ATL. Actually the reason I haven't been to Birmingham yet is because I have so many relatives there lol.
Fam, love the videos and think it’s dope that you actually drive all over the country. Why don’t you get a 360 camera which would allow the viewers the ability to control what they actually see when you are driving down the street and these ally’s... sometimes when you pass 45 dudes on a porch with their granny we’d like to see their reactions if any. 💪🏾💪🏾
I still remember the day I arrived at U.S., my friend picked me up and drove through those hoods in Atlanta to avoid the traffic jam on I-75. The first impression is that GTA is real.
These are the most real videos I've ever seen about America, it's to be congratulated. 🤔👍
Try to know South America And you 'll know the underworld
A REAL ghetto that is. Stop romanticizing poverty and crime. Grow up!
Thanks for taking the time to make this video.
Of course, he's a cop.

My comment might be out of place but in my perspective as a Latino i'm watching those big houses separated each one from another with gardens and many fresh green areas and i think to my self: damn.. i wish could live somewhere alike, how Americans don't apreciate what they have anymore i mean look how fucked up the world is out there, US and Canada are some of the few places where you can see these types of Neighbourhoods, in Latin-America there are few exclusive for the high class while the rest of houses are small sticked together with no gardens i'd even dare to say these hoods are a heaven compared to the poor zones in Central America where people live in sheet huts and no mention of the "Salvatruchas", in Europe they ran out of big houses a long time ago, come on Russia is the total opposite of this, there everyone lives in small appartments some very sad and dull with no green areas and so on with many other places around the Globe so i can't believe these type of neighborhoods have become dangerous but well, it seems the world is getting worst all the time...
Ernesto Alvarez It is...
Ernesto. You need to think beyond your current state. Aspire. Videos like this should show you where you never want to be in life. Get career. Get an education. Stack assets. Don't get married and definitely don't have kids. You will dominate your life. It's not about the "Latin-American" community. It's about you.
Loved your comment man. Very true

I grew up in Atlanta. Graduated from North Springs High School up Roswell Road. Worked for Marietta Cobb County DPS. This looks like the south side of town. Nice to see everyone driving new cars.
I went to North Springs what ye u graduated
@@trapmuzik6708 1983 I was the drum section leader in band. I wanted to play sports but couldn’t because of a birth defect. Still, I had a great time at North Springs. It helped me to go on and earn 2 engineering degrees from U of H in Houston. I work overseas mostly. Usually in the Middle East but also Africa. I can’t say enough good about the school. I don’t know if you remember Mrs. Ellis or not. I was on a flight from Venice Italy and kept staring at her on a shuttle bus from one plane to another. I finally asked her if she was Mrs. Ellis. Keep in mind that this was back in 2010. I barely remembered what she looked like. As soon as she spoke, I remembered her voice and knew it was her. She looked at me and said, my God, you are John Rohrer. After all those years, she still remembered who I was. I told her that I was on my way back home to Las Vegas and that I worked in the offshore petrochemical industry for ExxonMobil. Just goes to show that it’s a small world.
This video is a testament to the need for construction, landscaping and realty knowledge to be spread throughout the hoods of America. Not just for the sake of self-employment but mainly for the purpose of self care. Our neighborhoods are our responsibility. No one is going to leave their nice suburban communities to come and clean and renovate our raggedy neighborhoods for us!
It's a shame that so many black people believe that this is a normal way for human beings to live. Then again, the only places we lived before the hoods of America were the plantations of America.
Speaking of which, it's interesting that the most churches and religious institutions in the U.S.A are located in the ghettos. Each one claiming to contain the "power" of God. Yet, they lack the power to bring Black people out of the slave mentality that has plagued them for five centuries. Nearly two churches on every block yet our neighborhoods are the most hellish places in the country outside of the prisons!
So true....so true.
It isn't true that black people in America have had a slave mentality for centuries. They've had it since the 1960s, when the rise of the welfare state led to dependency, single motherhood, unemployment and misbehavior. Before that, the quality of life for black people was increasing, even with racism.
Guga big Facts black people were thriving after slavery ended we had our own business we had the black Wall Street Lol , the efficiency and number of black business were booming , the average black family had a house car an were very smart with money coming right after a time we’re we had an owned nothing so we took care of our stuff an Raised our family properly .. after finally being given rights an opportunity to establish wealth we didn’t take it for granted , we started becoming more productive then white familes ....but we we’re so concerned about what the white people had and they used that against us , They started to see us ( the black market ) as a Opportunity to make even more money 💴 ...Y treat them bad an make money when we can trick em to thinking we treating them good and MAKE MORE MONEY BY SELLING STUFF TO THEM ,You know since they wanna be apart of this country as a equal So bad ...you see we’re I’m going with this lol basically it’s like why kill the flies when we can allow The Flies In The House Then Sell everyone Flytraps💡
Amen teach it!
Wrong. Sorry Hannibal but you're wrong. There is no need for teaching construction and landscaping. You will agree. just watch. how is it we can get someone from south of the border and give them a job doing those things and before they can pick up the language they're an expert in those fields?
Those are the easiest things to learn. it doesn't need taught. when you have 365 days a year, let's go 180 good days with every neighborhood street having 12 kids playing basketball, on every street section... that's alot of kids.
If they're not already taking bricks from the trashed house and fixing up grandma's stoop, they're never going to. if they're not grabbing rakes and cleaning the yards they're not going to. If they're not taking machetes and cutting limbs off overgrown trees, they're not going to.
Yet they'll watch as the migrant comes in not speaking any english and keep watching by the time he's got his own commercial truck with a registered business license and has a crew of 30 with 20 lawn tractors.
Teaching them isn't going to change it. If they wanted that skill they'd make it happen.
*WHEN YOU START SEEING RED BIKES AND SCOOTERS AROUND THE HOOD, GENTRIFICATION IS AROUND THE CORNER* 2:51

Dam good video Charlie, I gotta say out of ALL your videos this one here from Atlanta has the most action & shows the ghetto or slums more like the 80's & 90's than ANY of your other videos......The "A" gets lit I see.....

Thanks for watching.

I see all kinds of people just hanging around on the street. If you have time to lean; you have time to clean. Get a broom, rake, shovel ...anything. .Help get that neighborhood back together. Take some pride in your surroundings.

@@johnnymichael1804 STFU racist terd
Honest question...why is it in every hood you film, the people that live there are always standing in the middle of the street to have full conversations? Then they act inconvenienced when the have to move out of the way for a car passing through. They do know there are sidewalks right?
“This is our block , you can pass , but only because we let you.”
If you're that curious why don't you go to the hood and ask the folks yourself?
Florida Nword "ah yes, excuse me good sirs and madams but may I ask why you people loiter in the middle of the street?"
you never hung out in the middle of a residential road before? its not like it was a highway
@@Artisan322 Is it really loitering if they're in their own neighborhood tho
Always wonder about the people living in the random houses that are perfectly maintained with beautiful yards. Are they trapped knowing they are never going to be able to sell? How do they stand looking at the filth around them?
Nothing to stop the locals cleaning up their own streets.
Honestly most home owners in the city don't really have interest in selling their homes. Its more about the sentimental value, people worked hard to be able to purchase homes especially blacks in the south they do that on the hopes of having something to leave for their family, with the expectations that the family will upkeep and do the same as they did and pass it along to the future generations.
@@jasoncardwell8535 I don't see that happening here in Atlanta of what you put in the last sentence of your post. The big reason why I don't see that happening: too many single parent families. And there's a bunch of 70 years ago you had a 15% of the population were single parent families. Now that figure is 74%. How do you cultivate discipline when the mothers don't know how to close their legs? It's a vicious cycle and it goes on at year after year after year. And the black churches won't address it because they don't want to offend their congregation.

You think thats a hood.
Think they could spend some of that hard earn drug money on fixing up some homes but having a nicer ride is more important
They don't know the real meaning of life! Just ignorant with no home training and no morals, or no pride in their neighborhoods! Anybody should know how to keep their yard up and clean up around their houses, what's hard about that?
Hellcat > a nice house
You know you're in the hood when stop signs mean "Go" haha!
4:45 INTO this video and shit gets real, real. I always find terrible neighborhoods very interesting. Just because you are poor does not mean you have to live like a slob. I learned this from my grandmother who didn’t have two nickels to rub together yet she still kept her small, old row home in South Philly nice and clean. No money does not equal living in trash piles. No money does not mean not giving a shit about your neighborhood and just letting everything go to hell. Have some pride and dignity. Be part of the solution not part of the problem! Get off your ass and decide today I’m going to do something positive to move my life forward. As opposed to sitting around all day doing nothing but drinking 40’s and smoking blunts. I don’t care what color your skin is. Do it for yourself. Do it for your family. Do it for your sense of self worth.
Aimee Webber >>>Yeah your right. Let’s just say fuck it and give up. YOU are part of the problem.
It amazes me too. Like a lost (or never existing) sense of pride in your neighborhood. Go sweep some sidewalks or remove some brush, dispose of some garbage. Little daily steps can make a difference. It's disheartening, I'm sure it's not been like this from the beginning.
a good message to spread especially to the punk above who loves talking about cats taking a s*** in the toilet when they really can do that type of thing racist motherfukers like that definitely deserve to have themselves dragged in the middle of the street with a rope tied around their neck covered in tar and feathers now that would be a real Hood treat
Self-worth. That's at the heart of all this. When you don't see a future, you don't prepare for one. When you fail to prepare, you prepare to fail. Vicious cycle.

You’re very brave to do this thank you for the video
I had the best experience as I made my first steps in a South Florida projects complex. My aunt lives there for around 17 years since she migrated from East Europe. I grew up myself in a good district around entrepreneur and lawyers and doctors in a suburban city in a metropolitan region in Germany.
At that time I was 23 years old and worked out a lot so I was 240 lbs and 6' 1'' and of course caucasian with a short military haircut. I just simply looked like a cop. As I made the first step in this hood everyone penetrated my body with their stare. After that they all went back home, because they believe I was an undercover cop or some FBI or CIA agent, because I am fluent in French, German, Polish, English and Russian.
I'd hate living in the hood in the south because of limited public transportation.
MARTA n CCT where im from in ATL...its there.
Fuck public transportation. Get a car nigga.

Dr. King's home town. I doubt that he expected THIS 50 years after his death.
Why would he expect any less?
Actually, He did. MLK was a major advocate against capitalism. A lot of what I see in Atlanta reflect what he said so many years ago.
To the contrary, Dr. King was fatalistic about the world. Privately, he expected to die sooner rather than later. I don't think ghetto slums in Atlanta would shock him.
I doubt he had 2 b assassinated for preachin non violence
Dr. King gave his life so blacks would be better off. If he saw hoods like this, he would be extremely disappointed - and for good reason!
The house at 4:13 on the left with the awning is really cute. They are trying. Reminds me of mine a bit of my house. I am dealing with the same problems... the house on my one side is worth about $5k, there is a park on the other side which is fine... most of the time, and the house next to the park is boarded up.
