Shame because Kenzo used to be a decent area with a lot of Irish people.
Used to live in Fairhill at Wendel and Allegheny before moving to Bella Vista in South.
What's the background music please
@@Sean-ix2tbno it wasn't. Kenzo was always bad. It just gotten worse
Very good video, I was born and raised in Philly and ended up moving for over a decade but circumstances brought me back here and to see what it was in 2007 to what is became when I came back in 2019 is just insane.
You know what's crazy being from Philadelphia that most outside of Philly don't know: the worst neighborhood, Kensington is a white neighborhood and still is... Thanks for coming to my ted talk
They also don't know about the open air drug market.
😂when was the last time you’ve been to K&A..
@@myfirstcrappyvideobilly They know about that. The problem is Kensington is the on thing they know about Philly lol
@@homeoftek5844 would you not say that it's a glaring problem
@@myfirstcrappyvideobilly not in the grand scheme of things. Most of Philly is crime infested and the worst neighborhoods are more dangerous than Kensington
Another GREAT video SuperMoto Toon! Happy New Year brother! I had a feeling it was going to be Kensington at #1...The shootings lately have definitely gotten worse...Keep up the GREAT WORK!!
Thanks for the support Zack! Appreciate it big time 👍🏼💜 hope you have a awesome day 🤘🏽
Hey Toon, Omii, and cute Jerzey and Philly!😊🙌🙏💕🐶🐶. Good video for detailing the neighborhoods. I feel like every state has its good parts and bad parts
Thank you for sharing. Happy new year!!!
Thank you for leaving a comment 🎊🙏🏼💜 Happy New Years!
Great work. Stats, visuals, voice. I love Philly, but this is sobering. Stay safe. I Enjoy the rides!
Thank you very much for the positive feedback and support. Much love Happy New Years
There is nothing here to love.
Real talk I'm just glad it's someone that really knows Philly and the neighborhood's. 💯✊🏾 I saw some video's other people made and you knew they were not from here. Wrong neighborhood's and wrong picture SMH. You did a good job my man 🔥💯
Great video Bro.
Very accurate descriptions, great job.
Great video man
Very well documented, with a very clear, succinct narrative! Really well done!
Good shit bro……as always!!!!
Thanks man I really appreciate the positive feedback ✊🏽💯
great video thanks
Another great video, Toon. You just keep improving. I'm currently living in Strawberry Mansion closer to Fairmount Park by the high school. It's pretty abandoned here. I hope it gets better soon, and the city officials need to focus on the crime and take accountability. They doing nothing. Ik the philly police aren't great but man they're overwhelmed with crime. Sucks to only see it getting worse. Stay safe and blessed 🙏
Thank you for the positive feedback ❤️🙏🏼
Take your ass back to where you came from.
Swp
Stay safe man. I'm living right near James G. Blaine. Its crazy out here.
The people wanted to defund the police, so crime is what your left with.
A great video. Very informative! At 7:42 I thought that person was working on the car....until you got closer.
Very detailed video. Gets you right inside the real Streets. You should also mention what police districts serve these neighborhoods and what police stations have the highest murder rates. In my Opinion the 24th/25th district is probably the most Dangerous in the World. Love your work.
Great video, im curious to see what the east , west , south side difference in between stats. It seems that most were in north Philly
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Appreciate it ✊🏽
Another great video iam from South Philly (Grays Ferry) and I think u hit the nail on the head
Thus was really well done
I grew up in Philadelphia. Lived in Olney, Germantown, Mt. Airy, South Philadelphia. 1963 to 1982. I was proud growing up in Philadelphia. Man has it changed over the years. My family has past on years ago. It's only a memory now. I still have great memories though
Great, great videos! I lived in Philly all my life and don't know much of its neighborhoods. These let me know! You usually just know neighborhoods close to you.
My grandparents grew up in North Philadelphia my grandfather went to Frandford High my grandmom went to Little Flower. Both My parents were raised in Kensington Allegheny. My dad moved to Cherry Hill NJ during highschool after his father was shot and killed.
I've lived just outside of Philly all my life. To me, I never know where the neighborhoods start or end, It's all just North Philly, South Philly, West Philly, Kensington and North East Philly. I've been through all these streets, and sadly even was a customer of these streets. I've seen a lot of bad things happen on these streets, but I've seen a lot of good things happen on these streets. No matter their color or ethnic background most of these people are Philadelphians and most of them are loving people. Even some of the dealers and street guys are relatively ok, and some even live by a strict code of street ethics. Yes, there are many violent people out there that make it unbearable for the good, hard working people of Philadelphia.
One of the more notable things is South Philly where a lot of the Philly Mob used to live and work. Back in the day these were some of the safest streets because no one in their right mind would dare to commit crime in a mob controlled neighborhood. There were places in South Philly where you could leave your door unlocked and nothing would happen. But that was many years ago and things have changed. I would like to see you do a whole documentary on the Streets of Philly from the 70s and 80s. There are a few famous places in Mob history, like the corner of 10th and Wolfe.
Here in Philly, we don't f*** around. We robbin an killin niqqaz. Lol all kidding aside, as a Philadelphian born and raised, I wouldn't wanna live anywhere else despite how bad it is bc it's all I know. Outside of NY, other cities aren't as fast and convenient.
@@homeoftek5844 I agree. I have never lived in Philly, but I have spent a lot of time on the Philly streets and I LOVE the people of Philadelphia and when I travel, I'm always proud to say Philadelphia is my home.
@@JubeProductions ✊
Damn Toon great reporting! (Top Notch) I have to give you an A++! you schooled me on some information I didn't known! Thanks for Sharing! Stay safe and take care!
Thank you very much Clarence! I appreciate the support ! Hope you and your family had a great holiday together. May this year bring you great health wealth and happiness. Cheers to a great 2022 🥂
Accurate , articulate and interesting. No unnecessary profanity.
So Germantown was an honorable mention. Does that mean it didn't make the list of the top 10 and is less violent than number 10? This is a great list. Thanks for the videos.
I'm shocked myself, Larry. I don't expect it to be number 1 on the list or anything. But I grew up in East Germantown as a kid and it's definitely bad. It's gotten so bad around Chew and Chelten, I once seen the military in the streets 😬
Grew up moving between about 6 of the places in this list. Spent some time in Cali and one of my bosses was real scared when I told him I was going to LA, but I had a dude from Detroit and one from Cincinnati and we had no issues, the key is to keep it moving and be about your business. Those two things will keep you safe most of the time.
Damn shame, I just got outta strawberry mansion. So many shootings and murders smh. We gotta do better, shit is depressing 😕 😪
Toon you always do such a great job with narraration. You made me interested in Philly because of it. I love places that have rich history, but have fallen through the years due to neglect and drugs. I also love to see places as such reinvent themselves. Great job.
You love place with rich history but haven fallen through the years due to neglect and drugs...🤔
@@jonathansantos4038 she forgot to add “ but unfortunately fallen due to “
Cities become shitholes gradulally,. It ususlly happens when the authorities start to ignore "small crimes." Those small crimes are then the base for the next level that by definition are the new small crimes. Then they start to ignore those new small crimes and it starts to unravel. Its like the proverbial genie in the bottle. Once let out, its almost impossible to be put back in. In Philadelphia, we are cursed with a mayor and a District Attorney that are cowards. They've decided to ignore the "small crimes" and over time, Philly has become a shithole, ranking right up there with Detroit, Baltimore, New Orleans and St Louis. Philly wasn't like those. It was a jewel on the East Coast; not as large as NYC but having many of the advantages and niceties of a big city. But now it is lost.
I grew up on the Foulkrod St of Frankford.
It is tragic the way things turned out!
Thanks for sharing your story. I appreciate It Please consider checking out my other channel @ToonBeChillin... I have a new episode dropping in 3 mins. It covers the behind the scenes of me touring different neighborhoods in america. Have a great day!
@@TOON215 my mom's family from Frankford they were some of the last white families to stay there
Good vid. I’m from Germantown. Kensington (K&A) takes the cake, you can’t be from Philly saying it isn’t number 1 on any list in Philly of worst areas lol.
A worst area isn’t always a dangerous area.. Kensington is the worst area to live in but the people are just not clean and all F-up by drugs.. but they aren’t dangerous. Allegheny West is very dangerous
@@buuzy252 i figured Kensington probably isn't the most dangerous as far as crime. However, the crime may have increased there lately
@@buuzy252 there’s like two parts of Kensington, one part the Frankfort side and the other where all the shootings happen kenso
@@buuzy252 Strawberry Mansion is the most dangerous imo
I lived on Lawrence St when I was in first grade. I had older sisters and I remember my parents telling them NEVER go anywhere near K&A.!!!
Pray for the city! I grew up around northeast and lived in mayfair. I still have cousins who live in Kensington shit is no joke whenevr i drove by addicted slung all over barely standing, dirty needles in the streets it’s such a mess
I don’t really traverse the city anymore, I did in the late 80’s into the 90’s. 30 years ago these same neighborhoods were drug infested and crime ridden. The war on drugs takes no prisoners, and it’s gutted these neighborhoods. Ancillary crime connected to the black market drug trade only hurts the working poor and this video is an incredible example of that hurt.
Great job of documenting Toon. ✌🏼❤️
I think that this list is correct. I live in Philly and driving around I would have the same top 10. I think that perhaps there are a few West Philly hoods that could make the list but who would they replace? Frankford is the real disappointment. But perhaps because they are neighbors with Kensington there is spillover. I noticed some Kensington spillover in Juniata but they are hanging in there I suppose.
Off the top of my head here are a few more Philly celebs and the hoods they came from. Wil Smith-West Philly/Overbrook. Bill Cosby-North Philly. Eve-Germantown. Kevin Hart-Nicetown. Sylvester Stallone-Northeast/Oxford Circle. Pink-Northeast. QuestLove-North Philly.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts Brian. Have a safe day. Take care 🙏🏼
Pink is not from Philly. She's from Doylestown
You forgot Pattie Labelle southwest
Kevin from Germantown
Amber Rose
South Philly
Bill Cosby
The infamous Richard Allen
I’d like to you give your opinion and maybe some facts that only you would know about these particular neighborhoods. But keep up the good work toon215
That footage of Hunting Park is downright apocalyptic with the sun obscured by a thick haze. If memory serves me correct, looks like this was filmed in late July 2020 when the Philly region was engulfed by pollution blown across the country from intense wild fires in the Pacific Northwest. What a year that was...
Man in the early 2000s my family lived in North East Philadelphia.my whole family moved to jersey from 2002-2004 simply because at the time the houses were much cheaper. Now I would never think about moving back to Philly the area has become so much more dangerous from 20 years ago its insane. I remember as a 6 year kid an adult wouldn't think twice about walk to the conner store now I kids can't even play out front.
My parents grew up in Frankford and went to Frankford high. That area is soooo bad now its crazy.
Also great professional video right here
Don't kid yourself, it was just as dangerous back then, you were just too young to realize it. When crack hit Hunting Park in the 80s, it was like the wild west. Car jackings and shooting were a daily occurrence. Back in the 90's the badlands were worse than they are today. Much of the drug trade had to be done on open air-corner markets, and that brought a lot of violence. Much of the drug trade now has moved to phone service, where phones are manned 24/7 and you call a number and meet the dealer somewhere. It cuts down on turf wars and corner hustling. But the open air market still thrives in places like Kensington.
I hope you're enjoying NJ where we have a little more room to breathe. I like visiting the city, but living in the NJ suburbs is much better.
@@JubeProductions That's true. Frankford was bad 20 years ago too. Most of Philly was and still is. However, Frankford has gotten even worse within the last few years. At least Frankford was well kept, had restaurants and a decent supermarket 20 years ago. Bridge and Pratt today looks dam near like Kensington and Somerset. Sad..
@@homeoftek5844 you're right, it's really bad. I know Philly pretty well because I have lived close to there all my life, but I always have a hard time knowing where one section ends and another begins. It's all one big mess to me.
But there are still pockets of nice neighborhoods with good people living there. Some blocks are very well kept and very well maintained. I would say the majority of the people are decent, hard working people living in bad places. A lot of the drug trade is made up of people from outside the city, coming there to buy drugs.
This is how it is...its been like this for yrs😑😔im 57yrs old an I've traveled in some of these hoods, have friends that live in some of these hoods,my thoughts an worries are that my friends that live in these hoods get out!!! One told me he moving out of north philly(strawberry mansion-section) an I will miss him, I've been down there once in my life time an I will be honest I would move too!! I lived in West Oak Lane, I moved from there only to move to east germantown an it was so horrible, I moved when I had to cause it wasn't a good place to be!! Now in the northeast(tabor-levick) area it is OK but still be aware of surroundings an prey for safety for your loved ones👊😑
Hey Toon, I was born in Temple hospital Nov. 1942. Fist home was on Master Street between 15th and 16th. Lived there till I was 5 years old. Left Philadelphia in 1972 I was 30. All those neighborhoods you just drove through were great safe places to live, work, play, meet and great friends, go to school, ETC. ETC. WHAT HAPPENED in your opinion?
16th and Oxford it was like Harlem back in the day very fast but as equally dangerous
The stop and frisk incident whose audio was used in the Coldplay song “Trouble in Town” took place in Fairhill.
Thanks for commenting and sharing your thoughts. ❤️💯🙏🏼
Outstanding reporting. Damn Toon you have a lot of hiding talents. Thank you 👏👏
Thanks for the support Hassan! I appreciate it 🌟⚡️
Looking forward to...
Thanks for commenting 👍🏼♻️✊🏽
What was going on that day during this drive with the cops blocking off such a big area, including Kensington Ave and Allegheny Ave ???
Listen, don’t let this guy fool u. Unless ur talkin about chestnut hill or the greater north east the whole city fucked up. 🤦🏾♂️ I’m sorry 2 say this about my city but it’s true. I had 2 get my family out 2 yrs ago but I still visit my family predominately in the Germantown and north Philly areas. I was living in west Philly b4 I left and it seems like that’s where a lot of the shootings r happening now! The whole city is bad
Awwww you can't handle Philly. Poor baby 😢 . Lol don't feel bad. I'm just effin with you 😂
i saw the thumbnail and was like ooh! that's glenwood ave i know that building. "harrowgate: at least we're not kensington"
Guess the other person deleted their comment, thanks for engaging in the comment section 🙏🏼
I was born and raised in the Fairhill area . I now live in Los Angeles , it’s so sad to see they city go downhill like this . I pray everyday for my family and friends back at home. Side note : I never would have guessed that Fairhill would come in at #2 , but then again I’m not too surprised the crime is out of control 🙏🏽 thanks Toon for this useful video God bless 🧘🏽♀️
* The city
LA is a shithole to you went from one to the other
I spent the first 12 years of my life in Fairhill, and I remember when it was clean, quiet, and safe. It breaks my heart to see what happened to Fairhill and Tioga Nicetown.
Everybody be safe out here but don't forget to live your life as well. Don't let fear rob you from the beauty of life. Peace.
I do deliveries in Philly and even some of the "nicer" areas still have me on my toes. It feels like the only areas that are somewhat "safe" are in deadcenter center city. otherwise it's always keep one eye to the left and one to the right. Shit's bad and feels like it's getting worse and it sucks to see it happen to such a historic and beautiful city
Nawl u coo in uptown stay on ya toes anywhere frl
I lived on Lawrence St and went to St Bonaventure School when I was in first grade back in the 60's. We moved to Olney when I was in second grade. I left the state when I was 15 to go live with my Dad. I never looked back.
We travel from Iowa to go to Shriners hospital for my daughter. I don’t understand why such an awesome hospital is located in the middle of North central.
It probably was a wonderful area when the hospital first located there. I remember it being very nice.
I came up in Elmwood. Its a shame what became of that community.
I work down in theses areas offen.
The old Harbison building most recently.
Nobody where I work likes going down there . I seem to get these jobs.
I look at as if im.doing my.part to really help make a neighborhood better.
I install doors and when all is finished I can say it's a little better.
I see improvement every time I go there. Small but still improvement.
And no. Nobody has ever messed with my tools or truck. I have my Bully (sugar) with me.🙂🙂
Thanks for sharing your story...🙏🏽💯
I also own a big working dog that is always with me and she keeps things chill in multiple ways. I know I'm 100 percent safe when the dog is with me or my wife, and the dog really doesn't do anything but sit there and be seen. Nobody wants to mess with the dog. The only problem I have is my dog is a German shepherd, so there's always somebody who thinks I'm a cop, which cracks me up to no end.
Thanks to Toon for doing such a nice wrapup. This stuff is right in Toon's wheelhouse.
@MrSniT ❤️🙏🏼 that’s awesome man. Bless you your family and your dog😎🎉🙏🏼
Born and raised in north philly “BADLANDS”. Glad I was able to get out snd raise my family in the suburbs. Such a sad thing to see my fellow Latinos dying everyday to senseless acts of crime and drug abuse. 🙏🏽 pray for them
bro no one says North Central Philly.. lol ... just North Philly
Lol right
Look at a map. I’m not gearing this video to the general Philly “hood audience” I’m from the hood in Philly, born and raised in Kensington. North side by fairhill. However I’m listing them as they are referred to by zoning and the map of Philadelphia. Even the police refer to sectors as north central, north Philadelphia east, north Philadelphia west. Etc. not to be confused with west Philly. If you ever rode the subway there is a north central Philadelphia train stop. Click this link of a Philadelphia map and zoom in. Boom. Philadelphia
goo.gl/maps/pMZX5XwqsmBtvcXw8
Obviously the general hood consensus is north philly, west Philly. South Philly. South west Philly. North west Philly. Northeast Philly and center city Philadelphia.
But when you act as a brand and or network where the masses watch a video you have to appeal to a larger audience then just the hood. 💯🙏🏼
Just because no one says north central philly doesn't mean that's not what it's called dickhead
This guy is still calling the EL the "blue line". So.... he's no expert.
@@yvonneplant9434😂😂😂😂😂😂
I live on frankford and travel too Kensington ..Once you know your routes and what time too be in the house. It’s usually all hood. Just know what routes too take and times too be out …
I watch most of the videos about Kensington. Very disturbing and sad for all the lost souls enslaved by addiction. Thank you for the great video to show the dangerous neighborhoods in Philly. What is most noteworthy to me that African Amercans are the majority. In watching these videos, being a very observant person. What stands out the most to me is that it SEEMS that most of the addicts are White? Is that true Toon 215?
I live on Kensignton Ave... its as bad as they say it is. Been here for 5 years and nothing has changed but gentrified apartments and septa & road renovations.
I live in tacony/Port Richmond and It is getting worse and worse every month it seems like.
It was a Culture shock when I moved here 2 years ago ( 5th& Cambria). I just keep to myself.
Haha yea 5th and Cambria around all the Puerto Rican’s 😂🙏🏼 but I’m sure since you been here for 2 years you heard a bunch of crime related drama come out of fairhill. Which is the neighborhood your in. It’s a friendly area once you get to know the people but if someone lived in the country their whole lives then Moved to badlands it’s definitely out of the Norm. 😁
What made you wanna move to philly ? It’s nothing here anymore , but anyway stay safe.
That neighborhood used to be so lovely. Clean, quiet, safe, kids could play in the streets without fear, it’s a shame.
I was about to say where lil Dirty block but you speaking on areas in general not blocks
We can't depend on others to clean up our own neighborhoods.
Lived in Fairhill for my first 12 years, then Tioga Nicetown until I was 17. I remember when I could walk home at 11 o’clock at night and never once look over my shoulder. We never locked our doors, and went to bed with the first floor windows wide, open for air.
K&A has some solid blocks that are drug free. I will say the avenue and Allegheny have become something out of a horror movie…Once upon a time this was a beautiful neighborhood
There was a time when I used to walk through Cecil B Moore at night and not have the slightest of fear, because I knew folks were good people even if they were in the streets. This was in the 2000s. Now it's like hell on earth up there and I feel bad for folks going through the nonsense. The city I was born and raised is dead to me.
I'm born and raised and still reside here to this day. It's very alive to me my friend. Even after traveling the country and hitting 48 states. There was no place like home. Alot of beauty out there but perception is in the eyes of the beholder. Some people look at the glass half empty. While others look at it as half full
🙏❤️💯
I really appreciate you sharing your houghts. Have a blessed day.
@@TOON215 That's how I feel as a Philly native. No matter where I went outside of Philly, I would eventually become depressed being there bc it ain't home. I don't even care to visit a place outside of the country or even city at this point. I'll just feel like I'm permanently lost or in some place I don't really care for. I lived here basically my whole life and I'm your age. It's all I know 🤷
If you went to Temple you had a good education about surviving in the hood!
I grew up in Germantown on the East side ever since I was an infant (all my life) and I HATED it! I got bullied/ harassed by some 16 year old as I was trying to come home from work! The neighborhood children were nosey as f*** but I'm in a BETTER/SAFER neighborhood now no thanks to my family members which are toxic as hell! ESPECIALLY the woman who gave birth to me!!!! 🤬 Thank you Toon for making this video
OMG, scary video tour of the 10 Philly hoods, no-go areas ! Gangs on every corner, drug deals on every corner !
I’m from jersey and I really don’t know Philly like that it’s weird because it looks really bad at times but I really like it seeing a lot of people is beautiful but the shit that can potentially come with it sucks. My girl got a spot like central east and I’m a lil paranoid considering how I don’t have anything really to protect the house.
I live here in Philly, you nailed the roughest hoods here but take it from a Philadelphian like me to add my roughest hood list......
Germantown....(East G-Town, Brickyard, Somerville, The Jungle, & Dog-Town)
South Philly...(Saigon, Point Breeze, Gray's Ferry)
South West Philly...(Kingsessing, Mt. Moriah, & Cobbs Creek South)....
Northeast Philly...(Frankford, Oxford Circle, & Lawncrest)
Kensington West...(7th Street To K&A, Badlands To Germantown Ave, Front Street to 9th, Berks, York & Daulphin to Front & Girard).
Uptown Philly...(Olney, Logan, East/West Murder Lane, East Mt.ScAiry, & Fern Rock)
West Philly...(Parkside, Hill Top, Overbrook, West Park, Brewerytown, University City or "The Bottom", & Cobbs Creek North).
North Philly...(Hunting Park, Strawberry Mansion, Central to East to Westsides Of North, Erie Ave All The Way Down To Fairmount Ave, Front Street to 33rd Streets)......these are some of our city's wildest hoods.....💯♠️🖤❤♦️♣️💯
Saigon in 2022 def is no longer the worse in SP. Its like its not even SP anymore
Can you tell me if the area of Stenton Ave is “safe” ?
Not the worst
Wow the Whole Philadelphia North Sides High Crime Rate Yikes. Power&Prayers to all There Blessings iladelphia. 2022
Yeah sucks I seen all this in person living in Philly doing furniture deliveries all around these bad areas. Honesty was scared to be in them 1 way streets with people with needles and just the people walking around blocking all the ways
5:22...was that a uhaul truck?
This video made to appear smaller?
Dood, stop it....scaring the shit out of me!
🤣
I've been through these places...back when I DJ'ed a lot in Philly. I had a lot of friends in those areas. I got my CCW permit and always carried a .357 magnum with me. Still do when I visit them...well...the ones that are still alive. Never had a problem though. Most residents just want a polite "hello" or to just be left alone. Not saying the video is wrong. Not by a long shot. Just making an observation and sharing personal experiences.
'Course, that was all about 13 years ago. I'm sure it's all gone straight to hell since then. After a friend of mine got his windshield shot out driving through Chester (about 18 months ago and yes, I know Chester isn't technically a Philly hood, it's worse IMO), I've been trying to avoid the entire area of the state. Hate to not visit friends but also really like not getting shot at.
Wow rocky balboa’s house is in Kensington, i been there and a i didnt know it was dangerous.
I’m from Brazil.
Damn I’ve lived in most of these sections. Last time was out Frankford in 2014. Ain’t been back to Philly since.
Which direction is "NORF?"
i deliver in Elmwood a lot, and somewhere in Kensington and Olney area
That’s dope man. Be safe on your travels ❤️💯
Born and raised we have never called no section of North , Central
Crazy part is ppl move here and the ppl who grew up here don't wanna move I been got our and not turning back
Yes
I’m pretty sure Lisa Lopez was from the Logan neighborhood.
Appreciate the feedback. 💜👍🏼
People forget- “Temple college “ sits right in the middle of north Philly.
On Cecil B Moore - if you read the banners on the street pole, it says
( the heart of north Philly ) on them.
Facts
I go here, shit's bad to the point where whne I get crime alerts or here gunshots it's just a "whelp, another day" type of deal. Just keep to myself and don't bother noone is my motto and it's working so far knock on wood
@@jewceyfrewt be safe bro , SMDH be safe to all
Dude from Norf Philly with dat accent👍🏽
Dude thank God I'm nowhere near there but shit I love going through the hoods same with my mom. But my favorite place to go is broad street because I go their every Philadelphia Wings games
Can anybody tell me where port Richmond is ranked
Port Richmond for the most part is relatively safe but it's right next to kensington.... Harrogate. And 3-5 minutes away from fairhill. So traveler discretion is advised. All of the neighborhoods can be safe. Or all can be dangerous. Crime travels. So just be aware of your surroundings , carry good energy and mind your business when traveling through and you should be OK.
Port richmond closer to 95 is a bit cleaner/safer .
All of them of dangerous now- walking/driving in Philadelphia has become russian roulette. Happy New Year, 560 and counting.
I hear you 💯🙏🏼
I have walked in every one of these communities and never had an issue......not saying I am tough just I don't walk like a victim......so I am not seen as a opportunity for victimhood.....
Note: 7:24 The stolen rental bike in the alley.......
@@prideventues The fact that you personally have not experienced violence does not mitigate the serious danger of Philadelphia today. Not presenting as a victim is an important skill in urban survival, but it will not stop a stray bullet. I wish you continued good luck as you walk the streets of brotherly love. Fyi, im a former resident of South Philly now living in much greater safety in montco.
@@tamedshrew235 Never said I was invincible or there are no issues......I just have my own perspective based on living here for 59 years and a colleague who is 5yrs older feels the same ....the city has been on Conde Nast 8 best places in the world to visit recently for a reason.....and National Geographic names Philly a top destination......so along with the issues we have a vibrant and electric city.....and many people who move out continue to work there which says something.....
Nobody checked on the guy at 10:18 😂😂
Glad I’m from port Richmond 😬
I'm born in raised in North Philly right around Allegheny and Abbottsford Projects.
American cities have been in decline for decades and it's not getting any better someday all American cities will be like this.

0:35 born and raised in Norf Philly and know one in my life ever referred to no area in Philly is north central
I'm born and raised In north philly also.... Kensington/fairhill badlands.
Look at a map it says north central philadelphia
If you ride the orange line broad street subway there is a exit that is called north central philadelphia.
Lastly, there is a north central philadelphia police division. Even the police refer to that part of the city as north central philadelphia.
I've documented over 600 philadelphia tours covering 100+ philadelphia neighborhoods in philly. (Did you know there are over 100 neighborhood names in philly). I refer to things like that are on the map.

Thanks for leaving a comment. Have a good day
I never said it wasn’t called Noth Central Philly but you said that “locals” commonly call that area “north central “ when in fact none of the locals ever call it north Central Philly…I’m just saying I never heard nobody say “meet me up north central “ or “bull just got rocked up north central “ or “ my block is in north central “ IT IS CALLED NORTH CENTRAL BUT NO LOCAL EVER CALLS IT NORTH CENTRAL EVEN THE NEWS DONT REFFER TO IT AS NORTH CENTRAL….now if you disagree with that statement that says a lot about you as a man because I never said it wasn’t that I just said nobody from Philly calls it that
Was that a dude lying (sleeping/dead) on the street at 7:46?
Probably doped up and maybe OD'd
We out west with it 🖖🏽
North central I grew up in strawberry mansion also....no gangs but the homicide and Robbery rate been high since we was kids aunt's lived in fairhill it was more money and drug dealing and mixed communitys hartraft is called Beirut basically on the edge but the same as fairhill that's the original bad lands...b4 you get down to zombieland kenzo
Damn this like a North Philly list the whole city has gone down its truly sad things will turn around the violence will subside and things will get better
They keep electing the wrong people.
Great video, I’ll make sure I stay away from North Philly. Usually the south side is bad in almost every state
