Looking to move nearby. Thx for the vid. Was this in the winter? Upstate depressed of course but this was not very depressing looking at all imho. peace
What was shown on this video has not changed all that much from the late Fifties and early Sixties. (And that is good!). The colleges are really what makes Oneonta purr along. No big swings in jobs and general population numbers. "Slow and steady" has been the rule over the years. Other larger up-state towns and cities have just about all seen extreme degrees of deterioration. And of course a major aspect of a Town or City's is the overall class of its citizenry. Although not displayed or critiqued in this video, I assume it is still dominated by caring permanent residents based on the apparently cared for part of town shown in the video.
Whos calling Oneonta a small town. Why the Saturday before Christmas i had to wait for the light to change three times before i could get into the Walmart parking lot. We have two MacDonalds in town. While there is no place in town to buy pot legally i expect that since there are two colleges and a hosital it wont be long. Sure there is no air polhtion like in a big city but sometimes, when behind a city bus, it smells just like New York or Syracuse.
Wonderful drive through the city. Thanks for this. Next time, go up to the campuses.

I think it was last July
Definitely not in the winter! i.e. -no snow, leaves on trees. "Americassmalltowns" estimate seems possible.

Thanks for sharing that with us and for watching.

Oooof. Not very nice. Thanks for the video, though.
