It's some cities out here that never get the spotlight in pop culture or urban culture..It would be nice if someone did a deep hood dive into places like Cinncinatti, Columbus, Cleveland, Nashville, Louisville, Pittsburgh, Boston, Jackson, Milwaukee, Kansas City, Minneapolis, Tulsa. Seattle, Charlotte and so on..
I've lived in Cincinnati, Cleveland area, Louisville, Columbus, and Pittsburgh. Like anywhere, there are good places and bad places. Pittsburgh was cool but be careful in certain parts of McKeesport.
A lot of people outside of Cincinnati don't know how much we love our coffee shops, dinners, sport teams and riverboats. We have so much history and several fortune 500 companies.
I miss living in Cincinnati. I started my career with Greyhound there, first as a baggage guy and later as a driver. Cincinnati is a very interesting city, because it's the Northern most tip of the South. Western most edge of Appalachia. The beginning of the Mid West and last hold out for the East Coast. So it's a very vibrant and colorful city, if that makes sense. I lived there off and on from 2006- 2016 and miss it very much. I made many great memories there and of all the places I've lived, that is a city I could see myself eventually moving back to.
It is a mixture of everything you said. I lived and worked there from 2006-2016 and loved every minute of it. Cincinnati has its own vibe. One of my favorite cities in America.
I mean, Cincinnati was formed in 1788 so by Anerican standards it's an older city. By 1920 the city had 600,000 residents. Plus once you leave this neighborhood nesr Downtown, Cincinnati is one of the greenest cities in the country. Big, old trees. Big houses on big lots. Super hilly and the streets twist and turn every few blocks.
After finding myself living in Cincinnati for a little over a year, it went from a place I absolutely hated and couldn’t wait to leave, to a place that showed me so much love that I now miss it the way I did home (Nashville) the whole I was there and now I can’t wait to get back.
Watch hoods in Boston and you’ll change your mind. Even Charlotte too. Both cities are very clean but at the same time, can’t let the good looks fool you.
The architecture is beautiful in Cincinnati and the streets are not very dirty and the lawns are usually kept even in the hood. So yes definitely a better looking city than most
2:35 Even though most of the buildings looks rough and in bad conditions. That streets looks amazing. Imagine back when it had just been built. beautiful sight
Seriously. So many intact period features. Cant speak on how it is living there but the maintance of the historical architecture, in an area Charlie is purporting to a hood, is nonetheless a great sight.
@@Pass____over I'm from Ohio it's not bad Columbus can be I think 120 shooting this year that's every year there but just stay on high street near campus not hilltop
Has such a "classic" America look. Small streets and buildings that have personality. It looks like they're fixing the area up but it still looks dope, you could film a dope movie there.
Not gonna lie Cincinnati hoods dont look that bad especially since its in the midwest. A little fixer upper could really change things and these neighborhoods look easily gentrify-able.
@@dreadhead5719 “Looks” are deceiving. I can’t speak on east coast or Midwest cities but in Cali, the hoods out here look nice or decent especially in LA but u might be in a war zone.
That last sort of area was beautiful and depressing looking at the same time. Beautiful for the history and vintage look but depressing because of the run down and low poverty level now.
Embarrassed to say, but At 2:24 I bought weed there about 15 years ago, that area used to be an open air drug market with a ton more people hanging out. The city has been cleaned up a lot
Do a whole Ohio hoods , u jus did Cincinnati, pop out in Columbus , I put some spots on da west side of town that would be good content , Then ofc Cleveland after Columbus would complete the trio Lol
@@showmestatefinest5412 he never did Columbus twice , and he missed some key spots . Columbus got hoods and projects it’s the 2nd biggest Midwest city behind Chicago
I'm a 3rd generation American and it was Cincinnati where my grandparents settled. Much of Cincinnati is way nicer than this video shows and actually takes pride in their neighborhoods and for our sporting teams. I'm proud to call Cincinnati home. I actually haven't been to these areas shown in this video and this area has homeless shelters to help. Cincinnati is about 50% white and 50% black/other races. We have a black police chief, diverse city council, diverse local tv personalities and currently have an asian pacific city mayor. Having diverse leadership was very helpful during the 2020 BLM riots keeping damage lower than it seems Louisville, KY and Columbus, OH had. If you drive downtown Cincinnati and north into the OTR neighborhood you will notice several new murals since summer of 2020.
I was only about 1 min in and *thought, wow - now this *looks creepy style hoody. I have yet to roam around the area, as to attest rightfully, one way or another. Some places appear run down but the people are nice. Others smell almost hospital clean and are full of lurking, evil fiend. I'm surprised at the amount of people that said not at all creepy or hoody by comparison. After spending nights outside in Detroit and perfectly safe, I took a full bus back to Birmingham. I'm not sure a single person disembarked in Ohio, to wander.
@Brookie Rose be mad, when I read your comment, it tells me what is on the mind of someone who will never know what it feels like to be in first place in the game of life. Get your mind out the gutter.
@Brookie Rose luckily I’m not one the yt enablers you usually encounter. Your 5 per center/ melanin theory has no power here, you will always be a jogger with a false sense of balck ego. I will be happy knowing the ppl are waking up to your tribalist group think. Signed dearly, fruit DNA. Hahahahahahah
Pull up Columbus Charlie, your only video there is pretty dated I got some spots for you that wasn’t in your first video that would be good content South Park apartments Wedgwood apartments West broad street , Whitethorn, Belvedere , basically the whole hilltop Central ave (the bottoms) , rickenbacher ave Hilton Avenue
Man this is just normal cincy. Kinda gross calling it a hood for the shock factor. Just regular people living their lives being peeped on like the secret video tapings of some slum voyeur. Still a cool video tho
These folks drive around the same spots in a circle not realizing. Cincinnati thicker than that. All it is, Liberty st, John street ect. Everyone of these hood videos.
That story of In Too Deep never happened in Cincinnati, it happened in Boston. But Boston wouldn't allow them to make a movie about it in their city so they substituted Cincinnati for Boston because during that time period when the actual events happened Cincinnati was the safest major city then. Now we break in the top 10 most dangerous cities list every now & then, and in 2009 the hood he was just driving through was ranked as the most dangerous hood in the country. Don't let a fictional movie cloud your judgement, no spots in my city has ever been taken over by out of town nixxas. Even the Detroit and LA nixxas couldn't take over shlt in the city, we're grimey af and there's too many haters to ever allow strangers to take over anything in this mf. I got a surprise for you: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-NmNf9FPg6zs.html
@@CKACKAJACKA wrong. Over the rhine neighborhood where they shot a lot of scenes in Cincinnati was one of the most dangerous neighborhoods in the us around that time period
Im sorry but I honestly do not get why so many men just stand around outside just kickin it with their homies? Couldn't the be doin somethin much more productive? I really would like to know.
Creeping down republic street behind our daily bread behind the boys and girls club basketball gym you edit it without turning on liberty , I stop watching, I saw my house too
@@bonniem3754 yes we know the east coast and Midwest got y’all beat in da looks department and crime as well honestly , I lived in San Diego for 2 years yes there’s a gang presence , but In terms of crime and safety Southern California minus LA is safer than any Midwest/ east coast city period
