I hope one day I visit America and see this beautiful cities.Much love from Kenya.
Hope you come to America as see the beautiful architecture, animals and colors of each state. I would love to go to Kenya if that in Africa to see the animals and other things of course
stay in kenya. sincerly someone who lives in colorado springs
I was surprised to see how big the city seems, my grandson lives nearby in Peyton. I've never been. I loved the planters at all the street corners, very pretty.
Peyton is about 20 miles east and much more remote.
Me watching this because I used to live in Colorado Springs and it brought back some good memories
This says come visit Colorado. Plenty of places to shop and eat with unbelievable scenery and natural caves and walks to explore and.museums galore perfect.
First impressions of the City is filled of plants 🪴 and trees 🌳 apart from street arts at some of the alleys...the full-sized human characters displayed at certain intersections are equally charming and reflective of the city's way of life. Thanks AK for showing us this part of your journey in Colorado...truly blessed 🙌 😂🎉
It's got good and bad just like all others but I live in Colorado Springs near a southern mall called "The Citadel"
@@KeepGunsyeah, that's a BAD area, certain ethnicities give credence to stereo types around there.
I enjoyed seeing the murals, art sculptures, local shops, architectures, and greeneries with the Rocky Mountains in view! 😍 Thank you for sharing this informative and relaxing stroll in Colorado Springs, AK! 🤗
You're welcome, always love the incredible views of the Rocky Mountains!
1:14 Nice park at the start ,beautiful dowmtown in Colorado Springs ,and with those Rocky Mountains at the background makes it even better 😎Thank you for sharing this enjoyable and relaxing walk A K 🙂👍!!!
I loved seeing the Rocky Mountains in the background
AdAMan Alley is a tribute to the group who annually hikes Pikes Peak on New Years Eve and then launches fireworks on the snowy mountain! They!ve been doing it for 100 years!
Each year they add a man to the club, and recently added their first lady to the group!
I live on the south side of the springs by fort Carson. That water fountain actually opens and sorays water every hour when there's no water restrictions.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Much appreciate these walk/talk vid ee ohs of the main streets and back roads of America.
Thank you so much!
Beautiful place. Very interesting video.
Thanks for all your videos
The Adamen Alley display sign cast a nice shadow on the alley (at the beginning of this stream)
Colorado Springs looks like a nice, taken care of city.
Thanks for showing. 😊
Colorado Springs is such an amazing place!
Creeping up on 400k subscribers! I remember when you had less than a hundred. Great video, yet again, Mike! Cheers! :)
Thank you so much! It's coming soon!
I lived there in 2003 and went to a hot air balloon race on the 4th of July that year. Amazing, so many pretty baloons😊
Awesome! I never knew they had an event like that there.
beautiful city
Did you go to the AF Academy at all? So beautiful there. What about Pikes Peak - you drive up it? Commenting at the beginning, lol before watching. Maybe you answer both in vid. Only wrote this in case I have to bug out early.
Beautiful 🤩 ❤
Can’t wait .
It's a really well designed city. Very nice architecture. Very pedestrian friendly. Looks like a great ( & probably expensive) place to live. 🐼
I really think so too! It's an incredible place
I live on the south side of the springs by fort Carson, it's a decent city, it has good and bad places just like any other city 👍
What are the bad areas? Visiting there in 2 weeks
@@Money0120 I'm a 35 year old Colorado Springs native. If you are comparing to any large million+ population city, there are really no "bad" areas. Downtown is actually probably one of the "safest" areas that is not just suburbia.
Most of the poverty and crime is concentrated around the southeast, between the southern end of downtown until you get to the super wealthy Broadmoor area further south, and extending east to about Powers Blvd. And really most crime is not anything that will affect you as a visitor - even the most extreme gang type crime is interpersonal stuff that isn't going to affect you as someone not living in that environment, and not in areas you are likely to visit anyways.
I would say your best time will be spent around Downtown, Old Colorado City, and Manitou Springs. These are beautiful areas full of history and things to do and so many friendly people. I hope you enjoy Colorado Springs.
I'm not sure how you ended up in my feed. I recently watched a video about San Francisco and saw how much was closed down. I'm disappointed, as I thought about visiting there eventually. I'm from the Denver area. I don't make it downtown often and couldn't walk nearly as fast as you do now, due to health issues. There are a lot of homeless here, especially compared to what there used to be. Often when people say Denver, they include the cities nearby. Anyway, interesting video for me. Almost like traveling back in time. I worked on the brickwork on the building on Blake, next to where the 1-up arcade is now. That was about 20 years ago. Anyway, nice video. Thanks.
This city looks really cool and nice to live in. Thanks for sharing 😊
Things are a tad expensive but not bad.
Wait!!! Don't leave until you walk around Colorado College. Just north of where you are in this vlog. Please!! Your fans from
Florida, whose son attends Colorado College and son loves your vlogs.! Our whole family does.
Wonderful walking tour in Colorado
You're welcome, thank you for watching!
Nice to see an American town that's lively and clean. :)
If the people of CO continue to elect Democrat politicians it won't stay that way.
What a peacefull city🙏
Colorado nice city👍
Can i know, what is your equipment for video camera ? Go pro or iphone ...i like your video view, so clearly
visited a few times but often its too far away for regular visits for me unfortunately. i did work there for about 6 months as well. been contemplating whether its a city i want to move to or not and it looks like an amazing city. It has that small town feel despite being the second biggest city in Colorado. It surprisingly gives a safe feeling during the day though, not so sure about night as typically when i was there late at night everything was closing up for the night and i was getting ready to leave as i did not live in the city at the time. maybe one day i might consider it on a more permanent basis, but i would be concerned about the cost of living. while cheaper than denver it's still gotten quite expensive like many other places and most jobs I would qualify out there won't pay as much as they do closer to denver.
It is very windy up in the Colorado Springs. It’s Wingdings flying into Denver too!😊
I found it like that too!
Tejon is where all the action is in downtown Colorado Springs. It's where all of the parades and many street festivals take place. Very walkable. Bars, restaurants, some great burger places, boutique stores, etc. If you went down a couple of blocks further south, there's some great places on Tejon between Cimmaron and Rio Grande.
Love coloring springs colorado
Adaman alley has a unique history. Has to do with recognizing the mountaineers who climb Pikes Peak on New Years Eve and light off fireworks.
That's so cool! Thanks for sharing!
I loved my time there, and the mountains are majestic, but I have salt water in me veins, and have to be near, and/or on the ocean. Cheers, Mike! :)
It sounds like you had a great time there
What has salt water to do with where you live?
@@gogadev I live by the ocean, and I'm a Navy Veteran.
Thanks.Ak
It's pretty rare to find a calm peaceful neighborhood this is definitely what I would like to take a walk in the morning and get a cup of coffee or bagel
You're seeing it on a good day. Usually, there's a lot of homeless people hanging out in the park, trash everywhere and discusting smells.
It's such a nice area to be in
Great coffee here in the springs for sure.
I literally live in Colorado Springs
I Miss Colorado Springs, i used to live there when i was a kid
Soooo crowded now tho. I dunno if I will go back again, surely not in summer.
@@jeannerogers7085 Yeah Sadly the house i lived in is gone
I graduated Air Academy High 1975, great town.
Also, worked at Antlers Hotel, had a morning paper route I could see Garden of the Gods every day, and worked on an Arabian Horse ranch, Black Forest.
back when I had lots of energy lol.
Not so energetic these days,🤨
Enjoy being able to see my old stomping grounds.💫
Was born in Denver, had family sprinkled from Hillrose to Greeley to Denver.
4th grade broke my arm I’m Pueblo.
I’m rambling k sorry.😽
@@summerz8867 Your fine
Also known as Olympic City! Home of the Olympic training center, Olympic committee and the US Olympic and Paralympic museum!
My town, Welcome!
What a nice and calm small city
I really think so too
Small???? Uhm, no, not even.
Okay, now you've got me moving to Colorado Springs!😄 I can dig that city! I did love Denver.
Save your money. Seriously. It's beautiful but...
That's awesome!
@@memesbyme710 in your opinion, why would not recommend moving here?
@@jm-xg7lm Crime. Trash. Cost of living. Too many people. And the list goes on...
Springs!!! ha ha i like it
one of our hotels is in downtown Colorado Springs.
About the only thing I recognize now is Jose Muldoon's still being there. I haven't been downtown Springs for so many years. Now I don't have to, since I can just watch this now...
They have a location off of powers now also.
Been to Colorado Springs and Denver and one thing I don't see is cleanliness Colorado Springs is cleaner and safer.
Can you breath being that Mike high!🫢😮💨😮💨🤤😁😆😮💨😮💨Congratulation you are living your best life!! I am from Denver … garden of the gods….. the Royal Gorge & HIGHEST BRIDGE IN AMERICA!! Red rocks for concerts .. Ft Carson Army base.. Try Golden Colo COORS BEER FREE TOUR of brewery 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Colorado School 🏫 of mines
I Live Here!
Acacia park, the one at the beginning of the video is where a lot of the homeless hang out. Dont lay down on that grass, therese a lot of needles dumped in the grassy areas.
That was in the 80s, it's a lot more cleaned up now, but there is a park like that just about 2 miles south of it.
You totally missed Humpty Dumpty on the wall 14:41 and the car on the side of the bldg 23:47….all in all, beautiful city.
I thought it was funny when you said what a "family Friendly" town and park it was and two-seconds later you said "there's a topless bar" across the street. lol It was kind of ironic. It's a cute artsy town. I enjoyed the tour, AK. 🧚♀
I don’t think it’s s topless bar!
@@werlecar Unless I'm hearing things, I thought he mentioned it at the beginning of the video and at the end of the video when he passed by it again. lol It's @ 2:33 isn't that what he says? I just listened to it again and that's what I hear. If he says something that rhymes with topless bar I'd like to know what it is. lol
LOL - partied many times in downtown Colorado Springs and there is no "topless bar" anywhere near downtown!
@@pyhead9916 Isn't that what he said? I listened to it twice and he mentioned it at the end of his walk too. Am I the only one who heard it? I can't think of anything that rhymes with topless bar can you? lol
When he passes by it near the end of the video, you can see that it's a TAPAS bar.
Nice downtown, but empty as heck. 5pm and nobody's there . Just saw a couple people here and there but other than that, nobody.
I hope the weekend has more pedestrian traffic because i would really like to visit but not if my kid and i are the only ones walking.
Isn't the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs?
Yes
Tejon = "Tay-Hone"
Was wandering around Colorado Springs in 3000s in Horizon Zero Dawn and started to wonder what it looked like in reality
Beautiful place to VISIT but please don’t move here lol us natives are over this rapid growth 😅
No homeless people ? Seems like some guided filming.
for a city with almost half a million people, it sure doesn't look like it
As someone who lives here this a a very small part of the city. 195 square miles just in the city not considering the other smaller towns in its municipality.
The downtown area is pretty small. Colorado Springs is a wide sprawling city and the majority of the population is living in the surrounding suburbs.
N😊
I want to know how you managed to not be hassled by homeless folks. I avoid downtown. You usually can't go more than a block or two without someone begging you for money... I've seen some crazy stuff where you were walking.
It's not that bad, but probably a homeless person once every 10 blocks
Is that the place where fundamentalist Mormons live or am I getting that mixed up with somewhere else?
I believe you’re thinking of Colorado City, Arizona! While there’s a decent Mormon population in the springs it’s not the fundamentalist Mormons you’re thinking of
@@julesnolastnamegiven6830 you're right I was thinking of Colorado city, It's on the border of Arizona and Utah. The latter state is no surprise, given the Mormon population.
Spoken like someone who sidnt research anything. But the video is ok
I wouldn't walk downtown...lotta of homeless people.
Man, it kinda sucks if we aren't able to walk downtown. Boring as.
Mostly right wingers, I'd think
Looks beautiful and clean too, goes hand in hand :) I'll be visiting there in a couple weeks
As a Colorado Springs native... yes and no. There is a large conservative population - big thanks to the multiple military bases in the city. But most of the Springs conservatives are the "libertarian" sort who are more about letting people live the way they want without the government saying anything than the "in your face" authoritarian variety. And the downtown, Old Colorado City, and Manitou areas are full of progressives who are very open about their progressivism without any fight.
What's wrong with "right wingers"? Far superior to left wingers who want to wave the hammer and sickle flag.😂
Colorado Springs sucks garbage.
I live in Colorado Springs. I am also a native of Colorado. Hope you enjoyed your visit. Next you come, go to Old Colorado City or Manitou
That's awesome what would you say are the pros and cons of living in Colorado ?
The con is my area is changing so much makes me sad, cause I live in the house I grew up in. Other kinda con too many transplants or people. Colorado Springs is getting to become a mini Denver. Otherwise I LOVE living here and LOVE Colorado in general wouldn't live anywhere else PLUS I love our mountains
@@Hersheygirl67 sorry to hear that ,how is your area changing is the infrastructure changing ?
Going there tomorrow doing same..got 6 hours to kill in the city.. hope it’s worth it
It was, wasn't it.👍
Excellent video , what would you say are the pros and cons of living in Colorado ?
