Your videos are fine examples of Alltagsgeschichte (german word for "history of the everyday" or "history of everyday life"). Future historians will appreciate your efforts, as do I.
Clark County is growing most likely from the people moving to Sellersburg. Clark County consists of several cities. You should check out Sellersburg, we're small but charming and growing fast!
I think its a known fact that all towns must have a Main street and a Washington street in them. I ❤all the personal commentary touches to your videos.Thank you!👍
Thanks for another great video Chris. Watching all the way from Australia, i just have to get over there some day & check out some of the smaller suburbs & towns on the edge of you're bigger cities. Some of them look just like a place i could live in. Keep up the great content mate.
I'm a local, born & raised & I wasn't offended by the jokes at all. They were all accurate. My only complaint really is that you drove right past Perrin Park. It's a beautiful park & it's unique with how it's actually a family ran park. The city isn't involved at all. So they're able to kick people out if they ride bikes on the trails & whatnot. which is good if you're trying to have a calm meditative walk & don't wanna have to constantly be on the lookout for incoming bikes. ALSO if you ever go back you absolutely need to check out Pearl Street Game and Coffee House. They have incredible coffee there. I've met so many people there that I'm friends with to this day. They host regional Magic the Gathering tournaments there which is pretty awesome. The baristas are really good people. I go there almost every single day because it's such a nice place.
24:49 When you turned left at this stop sign, you went into a different neighborhood called Riverside. Had you turned right you would have stayed in Oak Park. Anyway, love your work! Look me up if you ever come back to the area and I can tell you about a couple of cool spots it looks like you may have missed.
As a native from Jeffersonville I found this video fascinating. I moved in 1993 and haven’t moved back even though the relatives insist. I miss my roots at times but, glad I left and occasionally I’ll stop for a visit. Never heard the term “hill jacks” before when referring to the locals there. So that was humorous.
Take a close look at Clark County. For anything Medical Tech, everything is centered over the I-65 corridor. Other than elemtary K-12 you have to go to Jeff, or Sellersburg or New Albany in Floyd county. Maybe in 50 years they will realize that there is an Eastern part of Clark County.
Here is a bit of trivia. In 1958 the movie, "Some Came Running" was filmed in Madison. The cast included: Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Shirley MacLaine, Martha Hyer, Arthur Kennedy, and novelist, James Jones. It was reported the cast sort of took over the town, their antics shocking the locals. At the time I was a 14 year old living in the southern Indiana town of Vincennes, on the Illinois border.
@ 12:46 the brick building on the left with the white columns is an apartment house with 4 apartments. I used to live in the top right apartment. I liked living there, even though my truck got broken into twice while I lived there.
they probably called the cops on you at 36:50 because you were flying a drone right next to quarry bluff, the most expensive suburb in southern Indiana, all houses there are at least 2 mill+ and theres a gate only residents have the code to.
it may not be exciting, but the downtown was quite pleasant! Hope you visit Northern indiana sometime. Been years since I visited my hometown, Fort Wayne.
I'm curious as to where you're from. You explained Jeffersonville wrong. A medium size town is better than a city because you can live in low crime less traffic and just drive to the city when you want to party or play. There's a lot of manufacturing jobs in jeff where you can make$50,000-$100,000 annuals without being in student loan debt. So start making that money at a young age with no student loan debt and retire at 50. You know what I'd rather you make it look boring and people not move here. Lol.
Someday, could you please do a video on Jeffersonville, Ind? It’s a city with a colorful, historic downtown that includes a candy confectionery/cafe that has been in business for more than a century and gets visitors from many nations. Downtown Jeffersonville also has Jeffboat, the world’s largest inland ship building plant. The city also has the Census Bureau’s nationwide processing and surveying center, the world’s most advanced facility for counting and studying a nation. And the Quadrangle, one of the nation’s most beautiful classical architecture complex, which has restaurants, stores and the city hall. Totally different from this “dull” and “unimpressive” place you describe in this video.
I lived in Louisville for 6 years in the 80’s there was a bar there in Jeffersonville called the garage, a guy bit the head off a chicken on stage there once. It was also cool that Indiana didn’t do daylight savings time but Kentucky did, I don’t miss the area much, but it looks a lot better than it did when I lived in the area, the Kentucky derby is a fun time.
I was born and raised in westland Michigan but when I was about 12 my mom met this guy from Indiana and started dating him I lived in westfeild Indiana till I was about 15 then I moved back to Michigan cuase the relationship didn’t work out now I’ve been back in Michigan for about 12 years now do you think you can do a video drive through westfeild Indiana I want to see what it looks like now
One day I will. Westfield has grown a lot over the last 10 years. Westfield today probably looks a lot like Carmel did 12 years ago when you were there last.
@@ChrisHarden Maybe if I came there under different circumstances I might have liked it but I came there to be close to family but some issues arose and the rest of the time I was there I wound up living in one of the cities worst housing projects I was finally able to find a way to leave back in 2019 and have not been back since
Over at Utica is the new east end bridge that Kentucky build to connect I265 Kentucky to Indiana is also the home of the one of the worst company to security for that company is CEVA where they ship out IPhones. Which is T mobile
Now you've got me curious as to whether or not J-Ville, being across the river from L-Ville, has any cool bar/small-to-medium club-type live music venues like The Ville has?
Big thumbs up! As always very informative. Seems kinda creepy in a way and disrespectful to the soldiers who died to put a baseball field over a cemetery. Oh well it's Indiana. Anything is possible. Sorry you lost all your video. Thanks for going all the way back as it was a very good video!
I don't see how it's creepy. I don't think it's disrespectful either, but I'm not a faith-based person, so I think dead bodies are just dead bodies and cemeteries are a waste of space.
I worked there 2015 to 2018. Love downtown. the Klans birthplace but museum and ex members gave talk of foolishness. My Indiana friends worked on amazon in Jeffersonville. I am Mexicano which everyone thought I was Indian. Made good friends and the lincoln bridge. Downey California
Why would the birthplace of the kkk bbe in a northern state???. If you took a moment to google it you would find out its actually Pulaski, TN. You're about as sharp as a bowling ball
You need to come back cause all us trashy folk be livin high on the hog sir. Jeffersonville is still a very quiet place to live. I can sleep knowing things will be good, I have no idea where you are from but I don’t believe I would want to be your neighbor. I left for 30 yrs but it was time to come home and be close to some family . After Ohio and Florida I was happy to be back.. we were a strong family community when. Our parents aunts and Uncle passed the kids never had time for family reunions and such. But it is still home and if you have nothing good to say, just don’t come back.
Debbie, people are allowed opinions. Jeffersonville works for some folk, while others might think it's too quaint and doesn't have a lot going for it (especially job-wise). It's okay if some people don't like the place in which you live. If everyone liked Jeffersonville and the population grew substantially because of it, you would likely complain about how it's not the same town and everything is going downhill. Also you told the man to both "come back" and then finished with "don't come back." Which is it?
@@zenithpilot well I went away for 30 yrs I come to a downtown that great the it is growing leaps and bounds with Amazon and so many other great places to work there are very little crime here. It is what I said either or frankly I owe no explanation.
