The green house at the end on 10:18 in the video is the house where my father grew up in back in the 1950's and that school across the street is Dunbar where he went to school. Great people came from that hood. My father and all his siblings finished college and had or has great careers. So its not where you come from its what's instilled inside of you.
By watching this video I can can completely understand why this place is unknown .....What reason would a normal want to go there because it looks like nothing ....
Louis A. McCall III. Well you are right about not everyone knowing about Bessemer. Well I have heard about it, but never been there. Now will you please tell me which City ( Major City ) this small City is close to? Thank you and God Bless.
It definitely was humid 😂 when you live there it’s not bad though. We use to catch crawdads in the creek here and there were a few random wild chickens we would chase. We always would get freeze cups from the candy lady if it was too hot in the summer.
@Oliver Dreyer it does have beautiful places. But this guy goes to the bad parts. And thank you so much for the compliment. My grandma would tell me of the places Blacks weren't allowed some even right up the street from me. History not forgotten.
I've noticed that from traveling and moving that dollar general is everywhere fooling people with there name, prices higher than Walmart and a lot of more stores... That's a good question.. I want to know the answer now.
Some of the best people in the world are from Alabama. Born and raised in in Mobile Alabama Down the bay community. Currently been living in Colorado for 33 years.
The houses are run down, but the streets are clean and quiet. Lots of trees and greenery. That town could use a roofing contractor, but otherwise, it’s not too bad. I’d spend my stimulus check on fixing up my house, then live happily ever after in peace and quiet, not like all the 💩 up North.
Right. I'm from there. Many ppl have moved elsewhere. Mostly elders remain. Once they pass homes go down. I'm from SmithHighland. It's nice but same situation. Ppl are moving away
Wow - this is my mother's hometown. Spent most of my summers here as a child - on Berkeley Ave right across from health dept. Havent been here since 2006 - looks the exact same as it did then.
Where do you live now? Yes, when I go back I say "Wow" this is still here! "Awe man" that's no longer there! That clinic 😩😂😂 It had 2 levels to it. Bessemer Alabama "The cut off!"
Haha you can mov video is not showing the we to bessemer if you want to I garrantee its not the place you want to live the person who's making this video is not showing the worst
The last few seconds is a Catholic Church. I used to attend the catholic school called St. Francis of a Assisi. Man this brought back many memories. Bless this place.
Shanna Dowd Lol! What year? The nuns would get on you but I don't recall to many being mean. I will never forget Friar Dan. He would get livid when we'd act up!!! Communion was something I didn't like. It was on every Friday! I didn't attend Holy Family I ventured to public school. Fun memories tho ❤️❤️
@@dtaylor4001Sister Frabronia was mean!! She looked like a witch she had long black hair and piercing blue eyes!!! 😂😂😂 I know the sweetest one was sister Dorthy
I was raised in bessemer went to jess lainer high school I live in Iowa now but bessemer will always be home to me thanks for the memories was raised in jonesboro projects we was poor I visit bessemer every couple of years my mom still lives in bessemer
0:15 wow the apt to the left by the suv is the one I grew up in. So many memories here, I went to that boys and girls club and the elementary school up the block. Good times and simple times it’s good that it is still there and hasn’t been demolished or anything. I live off and on from LA and Atlanta now but I need to revisit this place. See if some of those wild berries are still growing along the train tracks.
What a beautiful thing to read. Especially in an area people completely condemn. They forget people are still living their lives in these places. Thank you for sharing.
He passed by my aunt's old projects. Those are the projects on the south side of Bessemer. It was fun being over there years ago. I've moved away from Bessemer in my early 20's. I visit but would never want to go back. It needs major development. The city can be beautiful with the right ppl in office.
Charlie, you're in my hometown. Visit my family there every other week. Never realized it was one of the "Worst Hoods" until I saw your video title lol.
The obvious signs of a rigged economy are the fact that one can go to the same areas year after year and no matter what is said about the economy, it's the same areas that remain poor. Theoretically, with capitalism, investors are supposed to see the profit potential in underdeveloped areas. But other factors, real and imagined, are overriding the potential for growth and profits. But many investors are ok with investing in underdeveloped foreign countries but not in neighborhoods in the US.
They will only show you certain parts of Bessemer hood parts of course they never ride by those houses by Bessemer middle school or those houses by the duck pond off of 4th ave. Or those houses on eastern valley road towards mccalla
Brockton definitely - grew up next to it in West Bridgewater. I remember people always getting their car stolen at Westgate Mall and shootings at the Brockton Fair.
I'm new to your channel and I'm already hooked! I 👀🚘🚦for hrs! I subscribed and will donate to help keep the tank filled⛽👍🏾Do you have plans to visit Pittsburgh? 🏈
Bessemer is rough don’t get me wrong but as a white dude who lived in the worst part while I was working as an engineer in Birmingham, I can tell you I never had a problem with anyone. Everyone was pretty nice. My neighbors did go down in a bust with about 15 swat members. That was the only thing.
I have lived in a whole lot worse places and never thought of them as a hood. I hope people are proud to have a place to call home in a world where so many have so much less GOD BLESS AMERICA
Trust me you have to has lived here to realize how truly dangerous this neighborhood is! This is clearly a day when everyone is not fully operating because kids have been shot inside their homes in this neighborhood!! Lots of them, I lived here from 2015-2017
Yes this is not that bad. Bad is having to live under a bridge. American people are just snoody, and spoiled, and only look at the bad in situations that are not bad. Blessings.
@@BruceOpDangerous is dangerous 🤡 You can get your head cut off down here too It don’t matter where you at just respect the next man and everything should be okay 🤷🏿♂️
The North side actually has much worse ghetto’s than where your at. Don’t get me wrong that’s not Little Mountainbrook where you are but there’s worse. Edit: Never mind your getting there lol
Да, но только ни в моем городе! Не смотря население не более 18000, но везде асфальт, уличное освищение (испорченные лампы меняются сразу), газ, интернет, детские сады; множество магазин! А мусорные баки убирают в день 2 раза, при любом погодных случаях, при выходных и праздниках!
@@norikmalxas3781Я имела в виду не Россию, а другие страны...в которых я была!В России могут с губернатора и шкуру снять за такое!!!А в др.странах - шик, блеск и нищета, грязь - рядом.... А вы в каком городе живёте?
@@user-zr5hb9jz2z Если страна бедная , это еще простительно за устаревшую инфраструктур у и нищету! Но для богатых и развитых стран , это просто позор!!! Я живу в Грузии, в городе Ахалцихе, в 12 км от турецкой границы. То, что я отметил, конечно это не значит, что у нас все идеально. В Грузии много проблем (безработица, бедность, в некоторых городах есть и разруха), но низкий уровень преступности и главное, при небольших доходах хоть что то делается, стараются все изменить к лучшему. Если вам интересно про Ахалцихе, по моему в Ю тубе есть несколько роликов. Можете смотреть и оценить. Особенно красиво крепость Раб ат , которую после масштабной реставрации открыли в 2012 году. Во время открытии выступал великий шансон Шарль Азнавур, к стати его предки мои горожане! Будьте здоровым!
Man bruh you rode down my block on here I'm just seeing this the NORTH SIDE (7th Ave) where all the shotgun houses and you got my grandma house on here too damn but I'm born and raised in Bessemer it small but it's RAW down here trust me 💚💚💯
