Go on my page I get out the car in record fights in vacant houses in talk to people type scam reno I'm from ddh east side of bmore I walk in do this shit go to my page u will see
"Hood" now but look closely - solid brick construction, stained glass (actual Tiffany in some of them), solid marble steps, and real marble details. In their day, those neighborhoods must have been beautiful.
@Apex Gemini you're not wrong, but it's corruption that's sunk Baltimore, not just Democrats. Hogan is fucking this city over as much as any Democrat has. His first move was to sacrifice east to west public transit in favor of a juvenile prison. Bipartisan bickering doesn't help this city, rise above it dude. Find solutions, not someone you can point fingers at.
I spent six weeks in Baltimore helping my daughter in law who had a new baby. They live in historical Mt Vernon the apts are beautiful but once you venture out few blocks away its a war x Zone, so many abandoned buildings a developer needs to come on and rebuild those house
John Hopkins hospital owns 90% of the land in east Baltimore they are not gonna do shit for the benefit of anyone but themselves people always talking shit about this city but do not understand the facts of this city
There is a lot of beauty in #mybmore way to focus on all the negative. My block for instance(East side) just had all the sidewalks resurfaced and trees planted. Crime ,violence and areas of despair are in Every city. I will remain an ever force/voice of change, upbuilding and beautification for #mybmore . I'll leave the negative dipictions for the president and one sided vids like this. Be blessed!
You are in denial. The video is literally just strolling through the neighborhood giving a unbiased, first hand, document of what east Baltimore looks like. And somehow that’s untrue? You make no sense, people like you are why places like Baltimore are a shit hole. Pathetic.
@@alexandersanchez5218 You are the one who doesn't make sense. Are you from Baltimore?? Have you seen all of Baltimore? If not, then your stupid ass opinion doesn't matter anyway.
Lisa Williams maybe vids like this will draw more attention to it and help your cause. I lived in Baltimore city from 92 to 99 and saw more crime than any other city I have ever lived including Philadelphia, Salt Lake City, Chicago, Tampa, etc. I have lived all over this country and Baltimore was by far the biggest mess to put it politely.
@@ABQSkywatcher crazy I'm 24 yrs old I lived in Philly, Chester PA, Newark, NJ Camden NJ, Richmond VA ,Baltimore, Wilmington DE, Pleasantville NJ (small hood) Roanoke VA (Country ass ghetto) , Brooklyn NY (east flat bush) I had a very few close calls in each city, shoot outs, been thru robberies, been locked up 7 or 8 times for a small bags of weed (tough laws on east coast) ... Been jumped, cars stolen, women set me up, child support put on me lol crazy shit bro
I am from Brazil and have always been a great observer of the American ghettos for being a fan of Hip Hop culture! Baltimore is where Tupac Shakur lived as a child. Believe me, near the Brazilian ghettos, Baltimore is a good place!

I do a lot of traveling dont look no different than any other hood in any other state or city in the USA. Every city got its sections of slum. It looks like he purposely rode through the worst of the worst areas and driving around in the same neighborhoods over and over again but just in the next or different block.lol. A lot of it is not the people fault and in some cases not even the government its those slum Lords who dont take of their property when they rent it out because they getting a section 8 check and or abandoning their properties leaving it vacant and run down and this includes Donald Trump's son in law as well Yall should see his properties and he suppose to be so well off
I agree, this is REALLY bad compared to anywhere in LA, I mean this looks Detroit bad. I think the only place in LA that could compare to this is skid row, but that's a whole other issue
Skid Row is a bunch of tents in the middle of downtown. Its like the acceptable place to be homeless. It is nothing like this in Baltimore. This neighborhood Charlie is driving through used to be the American Dream back in the 50s-60s. The world just changed... As it always does. What makes these kinds of neighborhoods so interesting is like Baltimore, Detroit, Chicago, Milwaukee, etc.... These used to be the nice middle class neighborhoods when manufacturing jobs still existed. To see them in such ruins.... I find it fascinating yet heartbreaking
@@Slotten68 look at all the states that look like this. There all Democrat run states. The jobs left and so did the middle class people. No jobs lots of crime people leave. Bad Democrat policy make business leave the state. It maybe sad but hope and change doesn't keep doors open if your running a business.
yep I agree Detroit is more spread out & I dont see the tight row houses like you see in the ghettos of Baltimore, Philadelphia, Brooklyn NY, Queens NY, Bronx NY & Harlem NY.
@@falayonknight7904 they are some similarities in certain boroughs....I remember driving through these same streets like 10 years ago going to a Baltimore Ravens game & afterwards we all including my wife's 3 brothers & there girlfriends & wife who all live in Brooklyn kept saying it look like some part of Queens, I cant remember what part of Queens they were referring to....
It wouldn’t be bad if they pulled their money together, painted, plants shrubs, and made a nice park for the kids. It wasn’t a “project” so those homes could be saved. I’m sure in 2-5 years it’ll be gentrified and home prices will rise again.
you gotta realize that shit does nothing for the niggas who wanna gangbang & shit.....its not a cosmetic cure for Baltimore....like someone else said " The ONLY CURE is GENTRIFICATION "......
"Black people don't build. Blacks destroy." -Jesse Lee Peterson Wish all these guys would spend a few hours a day listening to him. This is all Satan's handiwork.
@@bextar6365 I dont know if you meant that as a joke or not BUT ITS TRUE !!!!!!! we cant continue to have these thots raising black males if so then it's only gonna keep producing more in the next generation....I'm a firm believer that drastic times cause for drastic measures.
Chris Carey that is true!! Sad to see this is all they have. Interracial dating was the best thing I did. Ghetto lifestyle is glorified in the black community and it looks horrifying.
They need to tear down all Row Houses & Give ppl vouchers to rebuild Private single family homes. Also provide training programs & jobs that r accessible to the ppl in community... If they can find a way to give $20000 of our $$ to legal immigrant families for nothing then they can find a way to fix this problem...
That’s just on the surface. Under the city is a maze of old piping for gas lines, water, etc. It is not uncommon for neighborhood roads to just collapse or to smell gas as you’re walking around the city. Baltimore is an old city and it needs A LOT.
That is one of the most depressing videos you've ever posted. Street after street of row houses. No relief. No shade. Even if it was better at some point in the distant past, how could anyone think that designing a neighborhood in this way was a good idea? Feel sorry for the kids who must live there.
Those once beautiful homes were once Irish and Italian working class neighborhoods. There was a Roman Catholic Parish on every corner and people lived in communities. It’s sad to see Baltimore rundown like this...
Public works projects have been underfunded in Baltimore since Hogan... Not that anyone before his was better, Hogan hates Baltimore, he doesn't hide it. The ones before him did too, they just had too much corrupt money coming in to jepordize their career... Healthy Holly and presidential hopeful o'mally can fuck right off too.
Baltimore is definitely the “Detroit” of the east coast. It’s also amazing that Maryland is a top 10 wealthiest state in America and the biggest city (Baltimore) looks like this and is damn near 1/2 abandoned. Also crazy that Washington, DC is a thriving booming city (top 10 most expensive city) and is only 40min away from Bmore.
@@kayyjohnson8325 yeah only a lot of southeast DC and a couple parts of northeast like Lincoln Heights, Clay Terrace, 21st. But Baltimore in general is way more fucked up as far as the environment itself. 1/2 of DC is not boarded up like Baltimore. You can get a townhouse in Baltimore for like $25,000, even in the worst hoods of Southeast you ain’t finding no shit that cheap.
@@paperchaser83_41 I was going to say the same thing. Watch for that big white camper that you see him pass at least 3 times. Also, I think it's cute how he cuts from any block that looks too nice.
No choice but to rebuild. My life history is in that city and it brings tears to my heart to see it deteriorating right before my eyes. I love and rep the entire city❤️❤️❤️😘🤟😘❤️❤️❤️😘🥰😘❤️❤️❤️
It would be awesome if you could go film some of Wilmington, DE. I used to live there, so thankful I got out. That city went downhill, Baltimore reminds me of it. Its just depressing.
Man Baltimore is a good city man stop disrespecting my city in these comments... acting like its not “hoods” and “ghettos” in every city he just driving around the bad parts foh its a shame how u people are 👎🏽🤮
Man, this is brutal. There is something more intensely decrepit about the densely urban infrastructure of cities like Baltimore and Philly than the suburb-like lots and streets of Detroit.
It has something to do with WEALTH. Fantastic wealth built Detroit. Wealth that most major cities never saw. Then the whites hit the trail to get away from the blacks and took their money with them. Plus the de-industrialization of America put the nail in our coffin.
It’s scary at both times of day so if you go there you need to Watch your back and watch place you going to at in bmore I recommend going to Baltimore downtown it’s more safe down there
Great video again Charliebo313, but are you ever gonna do more convenient store /gas station videos ???? those are far more exciting than talking to a group of kids who wannabe the next big rapper...those interviews seem to not represent the real life feel of these hoods....when you are in these corner stores with your hidden camera it's no fake shit, nobody knows they are being recorded.....it would be better if you just start a conversation with somebody in the corner store about the city your in cause they dont know they are going to be on RU-vid.
I still do those from time to time but they are a lot of work. I had to visit stores and gas stations many times in certain areas at certain times of day to get that footage. People think it instantly happens every time I walk into a store. I don't have the time to do them as much. People actually ask for the interviews more than those. I did one that was supposed to be in this video but forgot to include it, nothing all that exciting though. I will still occasionally do them.
i’m from maryland .. so to see this is so normal down in east side dc to. real live sad how y’all so surprised about it but this a everyday sight to me .

He is going in circles. My father used to live on Montfort and biddle, I was waiting for him to pass the house but he circled the same way twice. I know this area very well.
@@Machnamh I know the area as well and he is going in circles from block to block in the same area. The bad thing about those houses are owned by people who abandoned them
@boogy313rd Well , in this particular case , these are the lyrics to a song and I believe the singer either means that the poor folks who live life day to day and will literally do anything to survive are people who's lives are alot of the time cut short by murder.......OR he could mean that these people's lives are so miserable that they feel dead inside.
This is so different being I'm from Kansas city, Mo and I hardly saw any yards with grass on this video just curious if they have that in Baltimore good video by the way
Of course lol. Plenty of homes with yards in northeast Baltimore, north Baltimore. He's riding through the areas that are more in the the heart of Baltimore.
top 10 toughest large us cities 1. Detroit 2. Baltimore 3. St Louis 4. New Orleans 5. Cleveland 6 .Memphis 7. Chicago 8. Philly 9. Newark 10. Kansas City / Houston
BODYMORE WE not no large CITY we 34 TIMES SMALLER THAN all those cities thats why tha MURDER rate and crime is worst than all those towns cuz wht is we were their SIZE
I'm from South Africa, we love our black American brothers and sisters. Ya'll have been through so much and have overcome. We share a similar history to you and we've always looked up to you for inspiration. Thank you black America.
I feel an affinity with Bmore (and the east coast cities in general) as the row houses remind me so much of British cities, especially up north. Nothing wrong with the houses per se, just the abandonment and zero maintenance. I've visited, and if you walk through the good areas (and there's plenty) the houses are just the same except neat and well maintained. A house in this vid worth almost nothing will have a twin in Fells Point worth 500K.
The roads in Maryland are pretty good in all honesty, potholes are filled quick in my area, but no funding goes to Baltimore roads. Public transportation also sucks in Baltimore. All the money goes to the suburbs
@@VeryLegitPerson Because the taxes of the paycheck goes to the local town where the resident is registered. So if you take this hood here, very less pay enough taxes to do road maintenance. Only minimum.
The Outlaw Torn I live in Maryland why would they even bother? They know if they fix the place up the people that live within there are just going to fuck it up again
🏘At 3:28 minute mark, you can see the former firehouse on Montford St. Used to be Truck 15 and we ran with them back in the early sixties when I was stationed at Engine 9 on Madison near Broadway. The fire dept is a shadow of its former self and Engine 9 was the first company to be disbanded.
Note the '63 or '64 Chevy hoopty @11:29. I used to deliver to the Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center on Eastern Avenue.On the way back from my run I would stop at O'Connell's Liquors and get a quart or a 40.Maybe go by Patterson Park.In spite of all the run-down houses,they are building new rowhomes,a block at a time,in certain areas.I'm from Baltimore,and believe it or not the west side is worse IMO.
I'm from Southside Jamaica Queens. Been to Bmore a few times for a Fur run. Contrary to what most may think, there were a few areas that looked like shit. Overall tho, beautiful city.
Man it’s no joke in Baltimore 💯 I wanna make millions & fix all them houses I drive by , I wanna plant trees 🌲 I want markets not corner stores . I came to the county but can’t help but to feel sorry for leaving everyone behind .. I have to make it so we all can get out the slums
Traveled a lot of different places do to my work.My Career in Personal Protection and Concert Security have me in some ruff areas do to after Concert parties.Im born and raised in West Baltimore but later my Mom and Fad moved our small Family to the East Baltimore of the city.I learned how to get money on the west part of Baltimore but my survival skills I learned from the East part of Baltimore.Im a firm believer that ware there’s a need it’s a means to make money.I learned to sell items to folks that didn’t always have money to spend.I agree it’s a area you must always be on point.Its funny how I haven’t my hometown from the people,good friends and family,food yea keep your eyes on a swivel at all times,Word.Remember all Love is the 🔑Peace to all✅😎
In the early part of the video, I thought that Charlie drove the wrong way on a street until I saw the STOP sign at the end of that road... But, that's a Maryland "thing" as well as a Baltimore one... I have been misled by street signs and highway signs that bore no relationship to what they were labelling. 😉😏😂 And Google Maps/GPS won't help with that either... Missing, faded, or vandalized street signs are another "fun" element in travelling the Baltimore 'hoods and Maryland... Moronic Maryland and "Charmless City" better together ! < sarcasm 😏😂 I am always amazed at how far the voices seem to carry in this and some of Charlie's other videos...
First going through the neighborhood and seeing all the brick buildings i thought it wasnt too bad,but then the buildings thin out and start looking worse and was like yep...thats the hood
I lived in Brooklyn for 6 years ans barely went in the city. I met my ex and was in West Baltimore all the time... Dangerous as hell but i, a white guy, was never messed with. Just respect people. Be nice or not cause trouble. But i was told to watch out dor east Baltimore
Believe it or not there are some places in Baltimore that look way more crazier then in this video smh. I live in Maryland about 40min away closer to DC. 2 totally different worlds.
@Aimee Webber yea that sht was mad narrow like u could almost hand someone body something across the street without leaving ya doorstep that was wild lol
@Muh stackz yea I was explaining to people in other comments who think this vid is so "bad" that there are much worse lookin parts, even though yea this vid shows some really bad lookin shit there are actually worse believe it or not.
My church is on that block in the last part of the video. We bought most of the houses in Broadway East. Big redevelopment and revitalization plan in place. In 5 years, most of the community won't look like that.
Me being from Detroit where most of the neighborhoods are single 🏠 or duplex. I just wondered why damn near all of Baltimore is row homes? ( I used to watch “the Wire” a lot too lol
