@@Forworldtraveler That was exactly my point but I see each borough as separate from NYC. Can’t believe I have to explain this when I’m from here. FYI when you get mail in Queens it says NY, Not NYC. Mail in NYC says NYC, Clearly different areas. In my opinion NYC is Manhattan and all the boroughs are separate areas. We can agree to disagree. I have traveled the world but I’m from here and understand how’s it’s set up. Long Island is LI, Queens is Queens & the real NYC is Manhattan. You don’t have to agree but that’s the way I see it. People that visit also see it that way. All are NY but separate boroughs.
@@Learn2tradenow"NYC" is made up of 5 boroughs: Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, The Bronx, Staten Island. You can "see it" however you want, but you can't change reality. You live in those places you can vote for Mayor of NEW YORK CITY, go to NYC Public Schools, and are a resident of NYC. People from what's called Long Island (Nassau & Suffolk Counties) cannot, but the geographical Long Island is made up of Queens, Brooklyn and Nassau/Suffolk. New York City is the biggest city within New York State. BTW, what are you talking about "NYC" on the mail? That's not how mail works in the US at all! You have to label whatever you're mailing by City/Town/Neighborhood and State (which is ALWAYS a two-letter abbreviation), so it would be Flushing, NY or Harlem, NY. There's no State called NYC!
You obviously talking crap were you around 100 years ago? In 1924 Or just like looking at NYC videos and pretend like everyone else who hasn't lived or been there. That it's all like this? Plus you sound prejudice. Bet you didnt even know this was Queens, ny ?
TRUTH--I live in this community, this is the NYC for about huge number of immigrants, but it's only about 2% of NYC. So this is very limited, and biased. You don't show the rich areas, the middle-class areas..
Exactly and look at the comments. I notice a lot of YT vloggers like showing the crappy parts of NYC to get views. But don't go to other states. Which looks 100 x worse.
Thank you for your correct statement, whoever is doing these vids are just trying to get clicks , and the comments are from people that do not live in NY
@@sosmra You are wrong. I do live in NYC. Brought Up here. I have been to many places and continents. I am not saying the USA is yet that bad. But it's deteriorating day by day. For Example, I was in Australia last year. Sydney is the biggest city in Australia. The difference is day and night. I was in Dubai as well. You can literally leave your car or house door open. Nothing will happen. Can you do it in NYC? My car got broken 3 times last 4 years. You need to travel to more places outside of the USA to see the differences. Don't bring up some part of Manhattan, those are official places. It will always be nice and secure. We the people are suffering.
I agree with you. The scene at the beginning of the video must be somewhere else and not in Queens N.Y. plus this is not taken “0ne day ago? Why are people wearing winter coats at the end of the video?
It's a SHAME the way NYC sidewalks are misused these days. People should NEVER be allowed to lay down a piece of cloth or plastic and take up pedestrian space to sell ANYTHING. I blame the Mayor for letting his city get this way!!!
They say nothing in life stays the same…Born and raised in Manhattan, I left the city in 1999. Still has some remnants of old NYC in certain areas. Miss them hot dogs!
I didn't see anything in the video that was so terrible. I live in Munich in Germany and therefore can't judge it well. In my city things are logically different. But compared to videos from other cities in the US, the streets look clean and the people seem normal. Which of course says nothing about the actual living situation of the people who live and work there.
Tell me what's the best place in the City? Besides lower Manhattan, that's the business district or Part of Asotria or Dumbo. They are nice being closer to the city.
People always complaining about the immigrants but all entire country everybody's is immigrants before talking about the immigrants look yourself first where yours comes from.
You obviously believe everything you hear from people that only go to 42 street? than what the heck is Houston, Memphis, L.A. Detroit, Cleveland, Kensington, PA, Portland, ore. SF Vegas. Arizona , Jacksonville, FL. those places I just named and more are way worse with much higher crime rates. Its ridiculous the rep that NYC gets just because its famous.
So, don't say other countries as 3'rd world countries . It is a mocke ry. Clearly you live in 3rd w.c. + zombies equals to 4th w.c. No zombies in 3rd w.c.
First of all Trump and Giuliani were never in office at the same time. Giuliani cleaned up Times Square and helped the city get back on it's feet after 911, so I agree with you about that. I don't know what happened to him, but he became a real idiot and deranged. Now disbarred thank goodness. Trump did nothing to help NYC crime while in office except in front of Trump Tower. He does more to help Florida and the rich cronies that kiss his ass. I'm a native New Yorker for 69 years. Trump grew up in my neighborhood and my father-in-law owned an Appliance store where Mary and Fred used to buy some of their appliances. No PC Richard or other big name stores in those days. Also, this video highlights the lower income areas of various parts of the city which is nothing new. Every major city has areas like this.
" I get the feeling every time I watch one of these NYC, Queens, Bronx wherever videos that these people are going to wake up one morning with no tap water, shit bubbling back - up - out of the toilets and electrical blackouts several times a week! You can't randomly add millions of new people to a grid that wasn't that good to begin with I mean something has got to give!!!! " ----- that's not living it's surviving sitting on a lit stick of dynamite -----
honestly, other parts of queens are getting trashy, garbage sits around the streets, even next to businesses and more homeless and crackheads keep popping up
What would you expect of a city without cops, I see 4-6 cops a day when I'm there and there always parked and on there phones. NYPD does nothing and that makes a dream city for criminal life.
The fact that people fall for the b.s and think one side of Queens is the whole nyc is ridiculous. You have comments here from people that pretend to know what NYC looked like and was like 100 years ago? So are you 126 yrs old looking at RU-vid videos ?🥴🤦🏻♀️
Ich finde das Viertel der Stadt aber auch nicht schlimm! Macht doch erst den Charakter einer Stadt aus! Da viele Asiaten dort leben, gibt es auch viel Streetfood und kleine Geschäfte auf dem Bürgersteig! Es kann nicht ÜBERALL gut und sauber aussehen! Selbst bei uns in Deutschland sieht es in Großstädten teilweise schlimm aus... Berlin, Leipzig, Frankfurt.... Aber mich stört es nicht! Solang die Menschen freundlich sind! Es gibt genug Gegenden, wo alles sauber und ordentlich ist! In Amerika gibt es von allem - alles 😅😅 Aber das mögen die Menschen doch an den USA
Also ich finde das nicht schlimm! 🤷🏼♀️ Ist halt der "Charme" des Teils der Stadt! Paar Meter weiter sieht es ja auch schon wieder anders aus, von daher - alles gut! Ich mag so Städte... Wo man schon vor den Geschäften alles bekommt und überall alles verkauft wird! Ist halt der Charakter einer Stadt! Besser als das Areal um die Kensington street in Philadelphia! DAS ist Dreck! Und die Leute da
If you think that is so bad you should have seen it in the 70s..BTW you're on Roosevelt Ave in Queens not in Manhattan. One of the worst neighborhoods in the city these days.
your title, surprisingly, is misleading. Looks like definitely Queens, esp Jackson Heights along Roosevelt Ave. NYC is a pretty big place. Rethink your title to the neighborhood you are recording.
I’m guessing what is this midmorning weekday ? Doesn’t seem much different . although I’m noticing lack of NYPD other than that it looks like the same sh..t as hole before.
@@castinajig Man forget about NYPD. You are on your own in this city. My tire got stolen, it took 7 hours and 4 911 calls and 5 calls to the prescient to get them to the scene.
Oh shut it. Im from the bx . We love our city, you want to see real sketch?? Go to camden nj or detroit or flint mi or Chicago or gary In, nyc is still o e of sefest cities per sq cap.
Ich finde, dass es gar nicht schlimm aussieht! Also mir gefällt es 😅 Hat Charakter und Charme eure Stadt oder euer Bezirk! 👌🏼 Und ich komme aus Deutschland, wo weitestgehend alles sauber und ordentlich ist. Aber mir gefällt eure Stadt! Wer es nicht schön findet, kann ja woanders wohnen! Gibt bei euch ja genug Areale und Communities
