Made a wrong turn while trying to get out of Trenton and ended up on a street with zombies chasing my car. This was 25 years ago, so I'm not surprised.
15-20 yrs ago trenton had a reknown restaurant district in chambersburg south trenton some believed it was the home of the best tomatoe pie in the country. south trenton was the last nice part of trenton, i grew up there and lived there 30yrs. it'll always be home in my memory it was an awesome childhood, safe from the rest of trenton. but those places are long gone.
Wow! I used to live in Trenton. I now live in Florida. Thanks for driving by some of the areas of Trenton that when I was a teenager, I would walk through. On your next video, please drive by the 200 block of Olden Avenue. It would be good to see the old neighborhood again.👍🏿
Not at all. I would say Philly mixed with Newark. Culturally it feels kinda north jersey…mostly black and Rican in that way. . And it looks like a Paterson or a Newark wit some row homes. It’s definitely not Philly or Baltimore; those areas have nice parts.
Trenton landlord til 1995 about. Lasted 20 years. . Worst streets walnut ave. By chambers .. passaic st hoffman av . Camden st.. mid rose. stuyvesant . Mlk blvd by the monument.. north Trenton is no joke. Sections of South Trenton is nicest part. Aint worth shit ... centre st 4 shit.. use to drive my welfare tenants up to north Trenton to buy coke first of the month.. charged $5 per ride made $50 bucks. Was like 1.5 mile wait 15 minutes .. drugs every block. Use to be 100 dealers n hookers on the boulevard (mlk blvd) 24/7 .. now its a little more under cover. . God bless Trenton peeps
It never fails. The tree streets are always the worst in these run down cities. My uncle was a cop in Yonkers years ago & said Elm St. was a nightmare. Interesting you mentioned Old Rose St. my son loves looking at abandoned railroad lines down there. 🚂
The Mayor of Atlantic City Marty Small and his wife Laquetta who is the Superintendent of Schools were both recently indicted for beating their daughter with a broom until she was unconscious. But somehow they both still have their jobs

I currently live in Tampa but am from Camden . My girl in Tampa was tryna move to Trenton to work at their environment agency or whatever , and when she was about to accept the job , a few people on LinkedIn responded and said don’t work here for a couple reasons but one of them was that they had to sign a waiver saying they would 1. Shuttle to job from parking lot and 2. Not walk around at lunch or during work hours , and if they did , anything that happened to them was not on the company.

Spent the 80s 90s and early 2000s here. The cheese steaks Was bussin.

Ewing Township , NJ . 08638 . does QuickTrip still do deli sandwiches ????? Olden Avenue .
You drove down the one street I use to stay at as a kid with my stepsister.. my uncle use to own a Gus"s restaurant across from the court house back in the day. I would walk those streets at age 10+ no problem lol idk about now this was 30+ years ago
