My uncle lived and worked in Vegas for many years, ( 1956-2001 RIP now ) as a casino manager for several casinos, he loved Vegas and when I went to visit he would tell me to look out his office window and tell him what I saw, I always said "the Strip ? ", he always corrected me by saying what you see is "Suckers Paradise".....and never forget it !.

Played poker for a living during college and then about a decade aftwr. When online poker got shut down (called online pokers black Friday) it was amazing. Once it meant being in casinos (or house games) I quickly realized the environment killed my soul. I luckily was able to pivot and start other revenue streams. These days hardly ever play more than a dozen times a year between cash games and tournaments.

I'm a third-generation Las Vegas native. My Great Grandma relocated here when Las Vegas was very new. She was the first female cab driver here and eventually became the owner/operator of the Del Rey motel on Las Vegas Blvd. It's now just a memory but the sign is sitting at the Neon Boneyard behind the Sahara sign. I'm 40 years old. When Jacob said that he has lived here for a decade I was very surprised because he has the knowledge of a third-generation native. I was impressed with the tour he gave you.

I was walking on foot once in Vegas - bad idea. American cities are just way more spread out than in other places, and I couldn't find my way back to the strip. It was like 43°C. I was really not well and was coming down with sun stroke, and I walked into a hotel randomly there in what looked to be an industrial area called "Wynn Hotels," and I knew it was a matter of minutes before someone would approach me and tell me to leave since I wasn't staying there. I was just desperate for a few minutes in the shade. True enough, a staff person approached me and I said I was sorry but I can't find my way back and just needed a few minutes out of the sun. Not only did they not kick me out, he took me in, sat me down in a very nice area, and even brought me complimentary water bottle and said I could stay for as long as I need to, and when I'm ready to go he will make sure I have a cab waiting for me. My experience with Americans has been like this repeatedly. They are by and large incredibly decent people. And religious. On my way to the cab, this man again caught up with me and gave me a book of Mormon telling me to consider inviting Jesus into my life. Really, a fascinating country.

Most people in the US are decent, upstanding people especially to tourists in need. It’s a nation of 330 million + and the 3rd largest geographically in the world; the broad brush stereotypes of the people and the country don’t do it justice. America has its problems, but it’s not just NYC and LA, and it’s not just violence and indifference (from my perspective as a Chicagoan who travels my friend ☺️)
@dt6822
@dt6822 9 месяцев назад
@@sammarino439 I remember seeing a group of American tourists in Switzerland. As we were waiting to visit the Swiss parliament, the people ahead of us were having some challenges with security. They must have been from a country (you had to surrender your passport on the way in) where they raised some suspicion. A few people in the queue then began gossiping about the people from that country (it was one of the East European countries) and some of the things they were saying were borderline racist. The elderly American couple overheard this, and the old man, in typical heroic American fashion of defending those being bullied yelled out "I gather they do pretty much what we do, in a different way, and that's all, nothing wrong with that." Nobody said anything after. It was beautiful.

@dt6822 9 месяцев назад
@@noahboat580 I really did not mean it in a bad way at all as you suggest. I thought it was great. As far as racism goes, I can tell you friend, as an European now living in Canada, you don't know what you're talking about. Your country is among the least racist places in the whole world. In Europe, you can be exact same colour, race, creed, religion and ethnicity as a guy in one town over, and because of class barriers or who your father is or isn't, have every door closed on you. We watched in horror what was happening to black Americans in Selma and other southern states that denied black people basic rights. But at this stage, I would say that the vast majority of the world has lost its sympathies with a movement that seems to believe that lying is the way to proceed. Your nation isn't perfect, your police are pretty brutal, your Congress is largely in the pockets of the wealthy, and your corporations have too much power and your trade unions have too little, but the idea that 50%+ murders in your country is committed by only 6% of the black male population - and that is somehow the product of "systemic" racism, whatever that means, strikes most of us as a kind of social mental disorder of chronic dishonesty, very much like your suggestion that my comment was some form of passive-aggressive slow burn. Not everything is a conspiracy against black people, who are the most privileged and wealthiest black people who have ever existed.

Beautiful Country and beautiful people, I feel embarrassed that I was so wrong. Having been lucky to have travelled a lot in my life ( 61 ) I will definitely be heading to America.

I lived in Vegas from 62-76. My dad was upper middle class and bought a new home for $19,000 in 62. When my folks left I rented a place West of the strip 3 acres and a neat bungalow with a pool for $150 per month, eating out was cheap, the population was about 1/10th of what it is now. I helped open up the MGM Grand in 73 it was the biggest hotel in the world at the time. It was a cheap nice place to live at the time, I'd never go back.

My brother lived in Boulder City for a few years and then relapsed which exasperated his mental health. He left his apt in B.C. and lived on the streets in Las Vegas for about 10 months before we got a call about a John Doe in the hospital which was him. He had been beaten severely and malnourished. We quickly got involved best we could from out of state and just transferred him to CO to be supported by family. The mental health system in general is poorly lacking, however we met some of the most caring, under-paid professionals who help the "less glamorous" side.
@cadillacjack3240

The mental health world in the US would just do more of the same on a bigger scale. Dope people up, put heroin addicts on methadone. Provide cheap access to social workers and "therapists" who have no insights on how to help people get out of poverty of the mind and heart. Just like any program in NYC. Sure, someone might get sober and have a little apartment and a minimum wage job but theyre just existing. There's so many wholistic approaches to mental health that won't be utilized by government and non profits because it's not as profitable. There's products out there today that help people with mental health issues but you'll never hear anybody in the media talk about it. I was on the streets for 5 months. Society treats homeless people like they are trash when in reality they might need a few good meals, a few good nights rest and some sober and caring people to invite them to a cookout so they can learn how to socialize in a normal setting. Literally every homeless person that wants to get sober and up and out of poverty could use a hotel or place to stay for a few weeks just to get their bearings. The American Dream combined with consumerism was sold to corporations decades ago. As to where our society used to be more involved with the land, raising crops, animals. The happiest people are farmers and ranchers. The complete disconnect from nature these days is another reason why we're in a zombie land.

For many years I lived in east LV near Boulder Hwy, Henderson, as well as a weekly for a few months. I pretty much walked or took the bus when I needed or wanted to go somewhere. This gave me a more unique and realistic perspective about the Las Vegas Valley that many other locals in the comfort and security of their cars didn't have. I saw and experienced more sides of the community and observed more situations than others. This is the most realistic video that I have come across that paints a more complete picture of the community and its varying cultures. Good video.

Those tunnels where people live are actually flood channels that fill up and surge when it rains. People have drowned by not getting out in time. Their purpose is to direct the rain coming down from the mountains and into the valley.

I lived in vegas 12 yrs. From a weekly hotel behind palace station, to half million dollar home in summerlin. I even lived next to Penn Gilette for a year (his house is crazy). I LOVED living there. I was a trainer and i did club security for a place on the strip. I met the most amazing people and had some amazing friends from all over the world. When you live and are in the biz, you know everyone, vegas becomes very small. I could tell you stories for weeks…..

I lived in Vegas for 4 months as a Travel Nurse. I found it exciting at first, then depressing as so many people are hooked on gambling. People line up in the casinos to cash their paychecks. Homeless abound ( not so much in public view at the time though), the heat is oppressive. Homes were affordable then, but now probably expensive. .

Thank you for your insight, it’s sad that people get addicted to gambling and I feel any business that makes money from gambling should have to pay a percentage of earnings into programs to help the victims. Myself I only went to Vegas once for 3 days and loved it, I never gamble as I hate to lose but I decided to spend 100 dollars in the roulette tables and I thoroughly enjoyed myself and it’s an experience I would not have wanted to miss.. I guess it’s hard to know what’s for the best.

@@andrewstones2921 you phrased it correctly "spend 100 dollars" on roulette. Someone occasionally playing a game against the house they can't beat long term knowing it's an entertainment expense with money they can afford to lose isn't the problem. The addicts who play every day for years just dumping their money to casinos are. Although it's gotten more expensive, Vegas can have a really low cost of living but if you have vices it can have a very high cost of living.

Could be addiction, the drugs, their trash education system here, idk. The divide between rich/poor is more evident in attitudes too as the nicer areas (Summerlin, Centennial Hills, Southern Highlands, etc) tend to have friendlier folk with better grip on reality, however there is still that lack of culture/community connection.

I am only 70 and have been going to Las Vegas since I was 16 yrs old with a girlfriend who used to have to split her time with divorced parents, one in Calif and one in Las Vegas. Her Father was a cab driver who played trumpet in Wayne Newtons band at night. He was an amazing guy. The Las Vegas of back in the day was an incredible place where you could hang out for three days on $60 and be living and eating in style. It was incredible. My friend and I hung out in all of the casinos and were never questioned. Granted we were pretty mature but still. My friend’s Father always told us to avoid playing slots on The Strip and that the place to hang out was Fremont Street. We used to walk from one end to the other of Las Vegas and never had a care about our safety. Now, the Strip is just filled with what I call SMUT PAPER ( ads to see strip shows etc ), criminals dressed as street performers and homeless. I think it is sad. I am glad I had Old Vegas experiences.

Peter, I enjoyed this video just as I enjoy watching all of your work. The next time you're on the east coast, you should do a series on Atlantic City NJ and the surrounding shore towns on the island. There are so many comparisons to what Jacob was showing you in this video. Just like Las Vegas, Atlantic City has the billion dollar casinos and depending on which direction you walk, you could encounter multi million dollar homes, vacant/closed casinos, run down properties and homeless encampments. It's crazy how much money could be on one side of a street and how poor or rundown it could be on the other side. I think you'd be really intrigued by visiting Atlantic City.

I didn't have much money at the time, but we had fun! I did win $180 with a coupon playing Keno. Thought I was rich! Ha ha! Got a T-bone steak with all of the sides for $5.

Vegas Resident from 1988-2004. Las Vegas has changed a lot since I left 18 years ago. It was already going through it's transition around the late 80s. The mob influence is long gone and the corporations have moved in. The population has grown a lot. Most of the locals if they can afford it live either in Henderson or Northwest Las Vegas or the surrounding suburbs in Las Vegas like Summerlin. They usually have all the amenities like shopping, restaurants, entertainment that there is no need to go to the strip or downtown for anything.

2 of my favorite youtubers together! I live in vegas. I hate it here. I do NOT understand why everyone keeps moving here. I'm trying to LEAVE ASAP. It's horrible here. The water is hard. Eventually you'll get rashes. It causes brand new pipes to rust and mildew even if you take pristine care of them. Don't drink it. I know of at least 3 situations where someone died from drinking the tap or using it for nasal rinse or eye wash. Crime is rising. As I type this, I'm on hold with amazon to report a stolen package. The houses are built so stupid. I've been searching for a house for months. One house will have a garage, no driveway. Or your backyard is a brickwall and slab of concrete....or you look out one of your windows an see right into your neighbors home. ALL this open space in an empty desolate desert, and you want to build houses 2 inches from each other? Desert landscaping sucks. Theres no grass. I just replaced a tire because of a ROCK that punctured it. The people suck. It's too hot so no one wants to leave their homes unless they have to. Planning for events is nearly impossible. people flake/ghost. (I don't blame them...I do the same thing because it's TOO HOT) The drivers are terrible. They drive slow and pull out in front of you and stop. Always construction on every major street. every bridge. every hwy. When it rains, it's Armageddon. Ambulances everywhere because they don't know how to drive. this place cannot support human life and is downright inconvenient. even if you manage to somehow own an acre of land, you can't do any type of farming or grow food. your entire life depends on if you have working AC or not. It can go years without raining. Which is insane that every year we get covered in pollen. I filthy yellow film covers everything between March and May. Pollen from what? There's literally NO FUCKING vegetation here to cause THAT much pollen. I've developed year-long allergies here. Never had allergies till I moved here. The doctors suck. We are in the bottom 10 of all 50 states for healthcare. They experimented and then euthanized my grandmother because they didn't want to treat her. Every time I go to the doctor for ANYTHING they over-prescribe antibiotics. My knee hurts. Antibiotics. I have a cough. Antibiotics. My throat hurts. Antibiotics. They never fix anything. I often have to drive to 3 or 4 different doctors anywhere around the valley to get the correct treatment. It's a nightmare here. STOP MOVING HERE. WE'RE TRYING TO GET OUT.

12:13 Jacob is definitely right on here. As a Vegas native (born and raised for specifics), you will not see locals on the Strip, and I can declare that DTLV is wayyyyyyyyy better than the Strip if you wanna have a Vegas experience with some Vegas vibe to it!

I want to and hopefully will live in Vegas at some point, for many reasons including having family there. If I was a local I'd go to the strip a lot. I love the atmosphere and walking the casinos and just seeing all the shops and resteraunts and stuff. Not sure why people hate it so much. Lots of cool and beautiful stuff to see. I've been many, many times and it never gets old or loses it's allure.

I’ve lived in Las Vegas for 19 years. Jacob is very knowledgeable. The LVCC is “old money.” I have a friend who’s parents owned a casino in the 1970’s. The continue to live in that neighborhood. Jacob is right in saying that “locals only go to the strip when friends and family are in town or if you work there”. I’ve had clients ask me “do you live in Las Vegas.” No, I travel out of state. 🙄🙄🙄

Lived in Vegas for 8 years. Originally from a very small town in Colorado. Vegas was the first big city I had ever lived in. Was great for the first 5 or so years. But wore out quickly. Don’t regret it one bit though. Met many good people there. And met my wife in Vegas! I now have relocated to ND to get back to the smaller town slow paced laid back vibes i grew up with and don’t regret the decision one bit!! But I am thankful for Vegas and all it gave me for those 8 years! Unfortunately it just changed way too much in the small amount of time I was there.

I've lived in the Vegas area for about 8 years. I was an Uber driver here for a little over 4 years. I drove the entire valley at all times of the day and night. I have also worked at a few properties on the strip. I've seen and learned so much about the area from doing those jobs. One thing I noticed, especially with tourists, is that they seem to not know or forget that millions of people live and work in the Las Vegas valley. Many people are shocked to find out that not everyone who lives here works in a casino or hotel. If you leave the strip and Fremont St areas, there are grocery stores, hospitals, schools, gas stations, office buildings, community centers, and every other type of profession you'd find in any other city. Those places need employees. There are hundreds (maybe even thousands) of small neighborhoods all around the valley where people are raising families and just being "regular" people. Many of whom don't set foot on or near the strip unless they have to. Also, the violent crime statistics here are not as high or as "bad" as some people might want you to believe. Sure, there are bad parts of town, just like any other city or metro area, but it's rare that I ever have a feeling of being in a dangerous area when finding myself in those parts of town. If I had to venture a guess, I'd say theft is probably the most common form of crime here. Also, Jacob, please stop driving a like a Vegas driver. There's enough horrible drivers here (most of them). Be the change that everyone needs. Some interesting insight on some of the things mentioned in this video: Historically, the summer and winter rains that would come through the valley would flood many parts of the strip, especially that area behind the LINQ. So those "homeless" tunnels were built to move water away from the strip. Those tunnels can be found not only all around (under) the strip but also all over the valley. They're also under many parts of Boulder Hwy. Homes built after 2003 cannot include real grass in their landscapes, and can only have "desert friendly" vegetation. Homes built before 2003 that have real grass are allowed to keep it but must follow the watering schedule in their district. The SNWA will pay $3/square foot to help offset the cost of converting landscapes to desert friendly landscapes. Steve Wynn has known how big gambling is in Macau for a long time. He had been catering to Chinese customers since the Vegas properties were first built. In the Vegas properties the elevators do not have any floors that start with the number 4 because that number is considered unlucky in Chinese culture. If you visit a Wynn Vegas property, go into an elevator and you'll see the floors jump from 39 to 50. Sorry Casa de Sabor, your tacos are OK but they are definitely not the best in the valley. On that note, if the Las Vegas Review-Journal says it's "the best", it probably isn't. People don't come to Vegas to vacation. They come to stay up all night and go home dehydrated and sleep deprived. Calling gambling "gaming" (a marketing rebrand attempt) is an insult to gaming.

I made the mistake of scheduling my return flight to arrive at 10am and didn't get home until 11 am. I requested a window seat as I planned to fold up my jacket as a pillow and nap. Nope. A father and little girl got there before me and she took the window, so I ended up with an aisle seat. You're right. I was sleep deprived; the kid wasn't. I got maybe an hour sleep before I had to leave for work at 2pm. Never did that again.

When we lived there, we never went to the strip, except to eat at the buffets. 😂. We would go to Sams town or the Showboat for gambling. Heck, we even went to slots of fun for cheap beer and gambling. That was 30 years ago too. I loved it out there. Went back in 2020 and i dont miss it at all. Different time and im older now.

I remember going to the Showboat in the very early 90's as a kid for bowling. I think the games were like $.50 or something like that, we could stay there most the day and bowl. I was born and raised in Vegas and finally moved out a year and half ago. The place is so different now, I just cannot relate anymore. 2/3 of the city is just a total cesspool now.

I watch Jacob’s channel from time to time. Jacob has an advanced understanding of people. Everyday people, working people, poor and rich people. If you guys put your minds together, (looking at all the properties’, knowing how many homeless people there are. Working with the right people, governmental departments and agencies...get the homeless without incomes into shelters, get them their 30 day residency, social services, Supplemental Security Income...now all you need is investors’, PRIVATE COMPANIES’. ) Private Property Management, Private Corporate ownership, SUBSIDIZED RENTAL UNITS. Guaranteed income and rents low enough for those who WERE HOMELESS, being helped. It can happen, BECAUSE IT NEEDS TO! Great video, excellent explanations of how Clark County actually is.

Moved to the Vegas area in 2005 and have watched it change. I had an interesting gig job as a secret shopper for years. It was a great way to learn about the area. Glamorous jobs evaluating the high end casinos and frightening jobs going to gas stations in shady neighborhoods. I usually found homeless folks who were happy to take fast food that I could not eat. I did learn to ask if they were hungry first, many just wanted money for their addiction. Recently I started buying stuff at estate sales and now I get to visit the elite gated communities to pick up stuff. There is definitely the whole spectrum in this unique part of our country. Good to see the collaboration with Jacob. I learn a lot from both his and your channels.
