Hand's down, you are the hardest worker on RU-vid. Brings us views from the Midwest to Canada down to Key West to the West Coast of Cali and far south to Juarez Mexico, thanks for your time and effort @CharlieBo313.
This places looks sad,dreary and depressing. It’s sad how the government helps other countries but don’t help the people dealing with poverty in their own country.
it's amazing how they think they can keep drumming up support for their wars. CharlieBo's channeled opened my eyes, and im assuming many others as well, to American poverty.
It was pretty cool seeing a few of the streets that I drive through a few times a month landing on a channel that I’ve been following since Moses left Chicago! I hope your trip through our slice of paradise was decent enough to make you want to come back and film a few other spots. In the words of man that said a thing one time: “Y’all come back now, ya hear!”
Lugar de pobreza? Vc não sabe o que é pobreza. Se você vir conhecer o Brasil aí sim você vai conhecer a pobreza e é capaz de ter um infarto fulminante.
Charlie, Good to see you in my old stomping grounds. Charleston truly is a dying city. Just recently the city's mall is all but closed, the Chop House, Tidewater and Bridge Road Bistro along with restaurants in Kanawha City have closed. The Municipal Auditorium is closed, the Park Plaza Cinema movies closed, longtime stores Pugh Furniture and Charleston Department Store are closed. The US Postal Service WV Mail processing center is closing soon. But at least the Capitol will remain open. As bad as all that is, for a rural version of Detroit/Gary IN. Head down to McDowell County or perhaps Mingo or Logan the county where I grew up.
My ex gf was doing her medical residency at Marshall School of Medicine in Huntington, WV. When I went to visit her, we'd go to Charleston for dinner or a night out. It was bad then, it's gotten so much worse now. She finally gave up on WV and did finished her residency in CA...
I'm from Sacramento and live right there off of Central. It's run down and a lot of dope fiends but the violence ain't nothing like Cali and other places. People are nice no one is gonna bother you if you don't bother them
Awe. I wanted to see all of Charleston, including East End & Kanawha City. The nice neighborhoods with large and lavish homes, or The Hills themselves with mansions. This side is so sad.
It looks like a quiet small town people are working and trying to make it that’s all.. they are government to try to create a job opportunities for people who try to survive..always a place where is poverty.. I hope the city officials try to build this small town in the south up a little bit more… for better opportunities.. thank you for this video.
I was born in Charleston, West Virginia but raised in Magnolia, Mississippi(Back and forth between Magnolia & McComb) lived in Tylertown, Mississippi for a few years
Have friends in both Charleston and Huntington. Charleston being a capital city feels a bit grittier and Huntington seems to have a bit more energy maybe because it's a college town(Marshall) Tons of new construction going on around Huntington/Barboursville etc. Both have their share of crime but between the 2 cities I much prefer Huntington.
Huntington is way worse poverty is almost double that of Charlestons,it is the overdose capital of America, and the crime capital of West Virginia .It’s definitely one of the worst cites in America horrible place even with Marshall.
@@josephhoover4542 Hear that all the time but definitely not my experience, though certainly there is an opioid problem. Huntington has a much more energetic feel to it than Charleston that's for sure, and they are building a lot there. Companies aren't going to build without doing their homework first.
Because opioids were overprescribed to injured blue collar workers in rural parts of the state back in the early 2000s. Pill mills popped up and got lots of people hooked. Nowadays if you become homeless from addiction you are likely to come to Charleston for resources. Shelters, food and recovery homes. Many wash out of these places and are back I. The streets and on drugs.
Let us not therefore judge one another any more: but judge this rather, that no man put a stumblingblock or an occasion to fall in his brother's way. Romans 14 : 13
Video doesn't serve title any justice. This is the West Side and I promise you the majority of these folks are poor. Homes are cheap to buy and always for rent.
@@062082shane Yes I've noticed in the states, a lot of the homes in supposed run down areas are beautiful.That's happened in Toronto where upper class neighbourhoods have gone down hill. I'm from somewhere else in Canada, nice homes like in this vid, are in wealthy areas. Nice of you to respond, tc
HOODS? HAHAHAHAHA! We ain't got no hoods! We don't have enough people left!!!!! That yOur driving thru is ANYTOWN WV! Looks like that everywhere you go, no matter what town or city, some re a bit better, some way worse, but with 1 million in whole state, it tough even to have a hood!!!
I used to live near the WV border. Charleston is the best looking city in the state- the rest of it is really, really bad, especially when you get deep into Appalachia. The poverty is bad, the drugs are bad, the healthcare is bad, education is bad... and they're quick to run you out of town with rifles because they aren't friendly, either.
I live in Sacramento now. And I'd like to buy a house in Charleston. It's the cheapest deal in America. What do you say? I just want my own corner. I'm tired of being homeless.
Cara , lixo é o Brasil. Esses bairros do vídeo aí aqui no Brasil Brasil são bairros de rico, classe média alta... Cada espaço que uma casa aí nesses bairros tem ,aqui no Brasil seriam umas cinco casas com cinco família morando.
