Flushing, Michigan is a NICE Flint Suburb.

Flushing looks much different in the spring and summer time! More beautiful with the trees in bloom.

I've lived in Flushing 61 years! Love it!

What a tour throught memory lane, and some history i didn't know. I graduated Flushing High school in 1982, having lived there most of my childhood and as i attended U of M Flint. Thanks for putting this out. I've lived in Florida since 1989, so its really a treat to see this and recognize a lot of the scenery and locations.

I love the architecture of older homes. Looks like a nice community. Good job once again Chris on the execution of the videos. I always appreciate the subtle jokes.

Was at my grandparents house in Flushing when the tornado came through that wiped out Beecher in the 50's. They left in the station wagon to assist in the rescue effort.

No major highways or expressways run thru Flushing which in turn helps Flushing keep it's small town feel. Only city I believe in Genesee County that is like that.

You’re on point as usual Chris cause Flushing definitely is a cool nice suburb I have family living there good job 👍🏾

The Flint River is much improved over what it was. A century ago, there was commercial fishing on the river in Flushing. Pollution caused by Flint made the river not much more than an open sewer when I lived in Flushing in the late ‘50’s through the ‘70’s. It literally stunk. The only fish there , which were inedible, were some carp and a few hardy bass. Now, people fish for walleye, go canoeing and kayaking and even swim in it. The Flint water problem wasn’t so much that the water was polluted ( upstream from Flint it was always not that bad) but they failed to adequately treat it.

Man, I grew up here and it’s so nice seeing a recent video there . . . I miss that downtown area so much! You even drove right by my old elementary school and that was so cool. Honestly, I hope I move back to Flushing someday, there’s nothing like it, it has its own special small town charm! Great video!!!

the architecture and the scenery of Flushing, Michigan is pretty cool, also it definitely seems like a small town with room to grow. Keep up the good work and also that flushing sound effect you used when talking about the town was hilarious 🤣🤣

Need to do this in the fall as Flushing as great fall colors with all the trees

The name Flushing is the english translation of the dutch name Vlissingen. Vlissingen is a small city in the Netherlands.

Wasn't sure you'd do a video on our sleepy little town. Drove right past my house in this one 👍

Chris. I love the video. It makes me happy and sad at the same time. I used to go there twice a year all over the way from Argentina to see someone very special to me. I wish I could go someday back. This place has an important place in my heart. Thank you for sharing the video.

I watched your other videos and was waiting for this one on my hometown thank you Chris👍

I live on Boman in Flushing. I adore our little city so much. Great people, great homes, great parks and schools! Also we have a few very good coffee shops AND the bestest grocery store-BUECHES!!

I live in flushing and it’s beautiful in the spring summer and fall I enjoy it here

I love the header at the bottom of your screen with the time, date, direction, state, street name. Is this all your graphic work or is it part of your GPS or Filming? I wish I could record my travels and have this information pop up on my GPS or camera when I play it back. Forgive me for being unfamiliar to newer technology... I am not familliar with anything that's over 20 years old!!! Love your videos! I love driving and going new places. If I was younger, I would apply to be your assistant so I could go with! LOL Keep up the good work and congrats on becoming a full time you tuber!

I really like the stats, history, & info bar. Typical Michigan town, typical Genesee Co. town (lack of sun checks out) 😄 The absence of our once major industry hovers over everything, so it's impressive that the downtown businesses are doing well, especially bc our governor kept everything shut down as long as possible. Nice work.

Born and raised here

That street name is pronounced koo tahnt.

Can't wait for a Grand Blanc video. It's always been my favorite burb.

Great episode 👏 But, can we talk about the giant cow in the trailer on the right at 8:15 minutes or so into the video and again at 12:05? That is the Midwestern way! Very much enjoyed this! Very interesting that an Edward Jones Investments is open and operational in downtown, speaks to the vitality of the town. Thanks for showing the region at its best (and worst). I am certain generations to come will appreciate the efforts. Happy Wednesday!

After you go around the two curves when Main St straightens out I lived in the big Purple house on the left corner of Mill and Main. Lived there for 5 years. I still live in Flushing but outside of the city. I’ve always called Flushing a small Pleasantville. Reminds me of the movie.

Been all over country and Flushing city park has best dog park I've ever been too (besides one by Denver Colorado)

Flushing Sandstone was also used for State capital Dome!

The Cheap shots against Flint and Mt Morris, don't help your video at all and neither do the wide angle shots of the stores on Main Street. Also, really glad you weren't behind me filming...since you didn't blur the license plates.

That median home value has to be much higher now. I just bought a house in flushing. It's not a fancy home by any means. Very modest working/lower middle class type home. It's a 3 bedroom, 1.5 bathroom ranch (although it does have a finished basement), its about 1620 square feet, has a half acre yard. Older home built in the 1960s. I paid 226,000 for it. And I actually got a deal because the estimated value is 237,000. But the house needs some minor repairs that aren't that big of a deal to me, and the guy was in a hurry and didn't want to have to show the house to 100s of people.

Family video was the last hold out near me in Frazer/Roseville.

She was working in a bridal shop in Flushing, Queens.

You did us so dirty with the Flush sound 💀

Lived in flint basically my whole life, i now work in flushing and let me tell you, the people here are so much nicer than the surrounding communities.

I lived there for several years-had to leave due to my home flooding. Cant find affordable housing there mow and need to for med care at UM. Ive neen trying for 2 years to get back… By the time this video ended, I was crying and saying “I wanna go home”….

Just drove past my house! I can see my van so I was home!

I was at Family Video in Farmington when it was closing on January 6th, 2021.

Flushing gives you an idea of what parts of Flint looked like at one time. It was built just far enough out from Flint to keep the riff raff out. They would stick out like a sore thumb and the local police would mess with them on sight. You could take a Flint city bus from Flushing along Flushing rd. east all the way to downtown Flint for about 15-20 cents one way and home again. Other little towns like Davison, Grand Blanc and Swartz Creek were similar in size and attitude. It's where Flint residents fled to escape the open housing act that accelerated Flint's decline.

I’m grew up in Flint in the 70’s moved to Denver at 20. Now I am getting ready to retire, and buy a place in Flushing Township. Your video was helpful, and it seemed to cover all the bases. The flush joke was funny the first time, but beyond that I think it was a little rude. Especially to an area that has been so badly affected by a shrinking manufacturing economy. Otherwise, it was great.

Chris, have you ever done a video on Bay City? It’s a worthwhile trip, especially down Center Ave. Bay City has a thriving downtown and uptown area that is constantly growing.

I shake my head at some of the stuff here, like for instance, the grossly excessive overuse of toilet sound effects (I guess youth is wasted on the young). But overall, if your job brings you to Genesee County, don't turn down that job just yet. In my experience, Flushing is a very, very lovely place, and a great place to raise a family. There are a lot of nice kids in the high school. I don't live there exactly, but I live nearby. But I like to go to Flushing when I can, especially to park behind Bueche's market so I can hike along the "Riverwalk." You can walk along the river and at times you would swear you were in northern Michigan. It's lovely. And there's a bridge that goes across the river and leads to "Flushing Park," a local county park. And it's beautiful. Within the park there's a ridge high above the north side of the river. I've taken many photos there. You could sit down and contemplate, or write, or whatever. Or paint, even (even though I've never seen anyone do THAT. But you COULD). So you can cleanse your soul even within a few miles of the legendary bucolic industrial splendor of Flint.

Hallmark shop at 7:30 is the original Bueches Grocery store, they will be closing up shop unfortunatly.

We have No empty or abandoned houses in Flushing!

Teta's is a nice place to stop Nice town there.

3:31 you said it right the second time

Did you wash the windows ? 😎

Flushing - right down the tubes. ( Flint river ) from Flint and the wate water treatment plant at Flushing and Linden rds - history - hydro electric - Flushing

Growing up around Flint, I’m still disappointed 40 years on that Flushing didn’t name their football team the “Flushing Toilets.” 😆🤦

Lol I'm confused, i didn't know Flushing was a part of Flint... Genesee county yes, but part of Flint? Hm. I go there for guitar lessons and the made in michigan store ❤ nice parks there, trail along the river. Nice town, city...suburb?

Rats! I didn't notice any records shops downtown.

You forgot to add the park

Too bad you didn't show Flushing Park.

you should do a video on grosse ill probably one of the richest places in michigan

Go central cats Yes central elementary school mascot is a cat but it is a big cat not a house cat

Toilet town!

I wonder if anyone felt flushed in this town.

As someone who grew up in Flushing, I wholeheartedly disagree with it being nice....

Leave it to Flint to have a nice area named "Flushing" 🚽👀

Flushing = ten cent millionaire's

Flints like an ecenomic crater. Ecenomic fallout sureounded by nice towns.

Ahh yes, when Flint’s suburbs have a victim complex and think they’re bad because they’re adjacent to where poor people live. Flushing is boring AF…

Flint! democrats wasteland!

Yea but the north end of Flint is what neighbors it…no thanks

Flushing is a very nice town. I have a friend who lives there.

Uh-oh the musical accompaniment has changed.

I was born and raised in flushing Michigan in the '90s and 38 now. Sad to see what happened to my suburb when Flint spilled over into it if you know what I mean.
