Tells you a lot about how Grantspass economy is doing when the real-estate guy is your youtube/news guy, too. Homes not selling for 300k that need everything fixed anymore? Weird.

My schizophrenic son IS homeless in Grants Pass. Thank you Travis for your thoughtfulness of making this video. The problems are deep. Cruel and unusual are the sweeps. My son has had his ID and important papers swept countless times. No ID, no bank. No ID, no bus ticket or getting on a plane to family. No ID, no hotel stay. No ID, can't talk to social security office. No ID, can't get a PO box. Nope. Not cruel at all.

Very informative video Looking to move back to sw oregon I grew up in Gaston, and raised my family in Salem

I lived in Medford from 1994 to 2000 I loved it but Im told its very different now I live near Mt. Rainier, WA State I'm originally from Tacoma, WA. (SAD what Tacoma turned into, bedlam) I drove through Medford in 2019 and it really smelled like Weed!! But you can drive down the road going towards Jacksonville and signs stating a grow field😮😆 Who knew! I think the pear orchards may be gone now I don't know but that was a big thing back then, pears. I literally got lost in the town because it looks so different and there's a freeway that was not there before! I think you could do way worse than living in Medford although I've been told that it's very spendy it was getting that way even back when I lived there. Just pay attention to the areas where you shouldn't go especially at night it was very common to walk down by Bear Creek on that bike path that travels I think all the way to Ashland. I know even back then there were a lot of homeless people living along that path..but we weren't afraid if them. Maybe it's different now? But at the time I don't think there was as big of a drug problem. I am not sure but at the time back in the late nineties, there were a lot of mental health homeless people because Rogue valley medical center the regional hospital, (Asante) had a psych ward on the second floor and they would bring people there even from California. Once they were released if they did not get a one-way bus ticket out of town they would stay in town. So there were a lot of people wandering around that did not have a place to go... I used to work at that hospital, that is in the news by the way😮 Great video! I think you're spot on! Just realistic I do know people that live outside of Medford Jacksonville Applegate etc. are really down on Medford and do not like to even go there. Probably the same way that I feel going towards the city. It's not always desirable when you're used to the quiet and lack of traffic or possible trouble. I guess you just have to count your blessings!

I visit Grants Pass often, we try to enjoy this park often, this park and river are beautiful, it was getting out of control, glad it’s getting cleaned up

You can't ever understand being homeless unless you've truly been. No house, no family, no close friends, and no hope.

Thank you for this documentary. I don't think activists coming in from other areas is helping.

I love that kind of shower

I think the farther you get from the big cities, the more their positions change. Land and homes are much cheaper in rural areas of WA than they are in OR.

Now we are good

The population of Gt Pass increased by 30 % in 20 years. Lots of drugs, homeless, Keystone cops, and crime. Incompetent city management. Limited cash and culture. Pretentious, unprofessional, grossly overpriced restaurants such as the Twisted Cork. My opinion based on a few years as a customer. Never again. My experience, my opinion. You opinion may vary.

More like saggy hot spring with all the naked old farts..😂

there are to many people here already so stop advertising this place 0n your podcast,,don't ruin this city with your advertising

You did a great job Travis. Just think how nice a home each of these could have with Ukraine money.

To be fair as someone who grew up near Portland as long as you don’t go into downtown or any sketchy neighborhoods it’s relatively good

Homeless junkies have trashed grants pass. It used to be a nice town. The laws changed recently forbidding camping in the parks and things have improved a little.

So ,I see one of Medford's favorite sons on the cover of the video, but their is no mention of him in the story. Daniel Doughty ( not sure of the spelling) has been a familiar figure in Medford for years. He is a kind hearted person.

Ashland suck for fires every year ,horrible air quality every year ,stay away to many tourists

Mr.travis there's options,health department, hospital,CRC treatment center,Allcare there are plenty of resources to help the homeless we all got clear minds tell the intelligent people to surrender on how things SHOULD be instead they have 2 roads to walk the worldly walk our the pay it forward surrender the attitude and listen to the healthy support

As a recovering opioid addict (with 8+ years sober) who's experienced homelessness, I appreciate the level of empathy you bring to your work. It's obviously a complex issue with multiple layers going way back in time, as you succinctly point out. We need more folks like you out there to help bridge the gap between people on both sides of these issues. Keep up the good work!

It's basicslly just a budget rain showerhead dont worry

That is so correct can't no one speak for the homeless but the homeless because it is their experience 🤔🤨🙄🤔

No one has to tell anybody why the people in America is homeless first of all the the wages that they make the income that they have coming in for the two and three jobs if they're working on it's not sufficient to pay all the bills that they have. It is not enough money for the people to pay rent and pay for food gas and etcetera and etcetera. You figure it out 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

Thanks for this video. I was born and raised here. I agree with you 💯.....watching in 2024.✌️

The wife and I did this only having to pay $1000 as an "earnest" payment and $300ish for a home inspection for a $169,000 home in Portland. Bonus...we also qualified for a 1st time buyers $10k from gov. on down payment..... fixed 3.75% ....The NEXT year markets went crazy and now after 10 year our home is worth double plus! 1000% life changing!

ohhhh the secret YOU craves to freestyle a song or two.....You may not even realize it....but it true. Good for you bro! I hope you do it. It WILL change your life brotha.

subbed! you rock bro

My question is which state is best for someone with a pension. With no income tax, it sounds like Washington, but lower cost of living in Oregon is also enticing. Kinda just want a clear answer so I know where I can settle in the PNW. 😅 Gimme Bigfoot, flannel, coffee shops, and rain!

I Visited your UA-cam channel and noticed it ranks lower than others. SEO(Search engine optimization) is lacking, though your content is fantastic. Do you know why your videos aren't attracting more views? One key factor is insufficient SEO (your videos' SEO score is 0/100%, that's why your video is not reaching out to the people and you do not have many subscribers, views, likes, watch time, and comments. If you like, I can help you with improving it 80-90%. I think your UA-cam channel will make your dream come true. I am waiting for your response

Travis, thank you for the time, effort and thoughtfulness you put into this short film. I have been following the Supreme Court case closely as I am looking to relocate to GP hopefully in the next year or so. To the casual outside observer, one may draw the conclusion that GP s filled with heartless people. You did a fantastic job of showing the heart in your city, the people giving voice to the voiceless. Again, great job.

In GrantsPass org.its now iegals for anyone homeless too sleep ok.yes just sleep ING ok.this is un-American ok.and this city of GrantsPass or.must be Russia ok.wow.how nasty a American city can be.mean.note all tourists do not stop here at all ,why this city ant for America's at all.by preacher.

The entitlement is baffling. Im so angry at what's happened to my town

hi neighbor

CFS?

Inflation made it worst ! ...

We just moved to Ashland to a neighborhood next to North Mountain Park and across from the Culture Center. It's called Riverwalk. Our backyard opens to parkland. It's wonderful. The development is relatively new (2005) by Ashland standards. There is an HOA, but generally, they are helpful and hands-off.

Can a narcissist become President? There will never be a more significant case for the Supreme Court to decide on than the one that could make homelessness a crime. To give control of the law over to a narcissistic belief system that allows some people to force other people to leave their neighborhoods by denying them sleep and the act of relieving themselves is inhumane to say the least and goes against meaning with the Constitution that everybody has inalienable rights in God to survive. The Supreme Court cannot take that away. If they do I believe sooner than later Americans will start to feel the spirit of damnation surrounding their existence to the flag. Nothing is worse than for a country to be damned out of life's purpose by making laws against nature that no one can live without. Damnation should not be the American spirit that shows up in its norms and mores for children to follow going after the brass ring. Learning to kill without touching someone is not a subject children should be taught in school. What is gaslighting? Gaslighting is a form of psychological abuse where a person causes someone to question their sanity, memories, or perception of reality. People who experience gaslighting may feel confused, anxious, or unable to trust themselves. It is through gaslighting (flip-flopping) that narcissists use to keep control of their environment. Creating homelessness out of narcissistic abuses is not what our forefathers intended when they wrote the Constitution.

Hopefully medford can bring more entertainment to southern Oregon like dave n busters, big als, level up, round one, punch bowl social club... Southern Oregon is lacking in fun places like that

I blame inflation and drugs.. When I first visited Grants Pass I found a motel for 4 dollars a night, and everything cost far less. If you can balance your bank account, you're far more intelligent than the people who got us into this mess.

You gotta love deer. They're everywhere in Ashland. The deer own the town.

Belknap & Lithia use chlorine. Go to Jackson Wellsprings instead for true mineral water hotsprings. Summer Lake Hotsprings is beyond medicinal and goes back longer than any of the others. The oldest human remains in North & South America were discovered in caves in Paisley where the hotsprings is located. The land has powerful energy!

I'm related to "Yar". His problems run deep. Primary among them is the end of his marriage. He was not blameless in that. As far as "providing" the homeless with "a home", have you all actually forgotten "the projects" of the "War on Poverty"? Are we actually going to go back there? The reason why those structures no longer exist is because they had to be demolished. My beautiful home is older than the earliest such projects because I didn't destroy it and I actually maintained it. Communism (including "free housing") simply doesn't work. Period. It doesn't matter what you call it, how you frame it, how you color it, or how you convince the providers that i5 has to happen. You will end up with just another mess. And so we tumble forward, constantly repeating the same mistakes, and repeating the errors that will always be. "...........The poor you will always have with you; but you will not always have me..........." Matthew 26: 11

There are a few that want help, but more dont want help other then to buy their next fix. You cant help the ones that dont want to help themself

bus the homeless to portland where they want them there.

hahaha love that you made "your own hot spring" hehe Bagby hot springs looks like a very unique experience. Wow I sure am getting the feeling that I neeeeed to explore Oregon! The more I learn the more the super natural Umpqua hot springs seems like my cup of tea but now Terwilliger I had not heard of and it looks incredible!!! Wow! Literally working on travel plans after catching this video. Thank you so much.

Follow the money homelessness is big money The liberals want to make society dependent on them

This makes me sad. I left a week before the fire. I was there for five years before. So sad.

And if you consider Central Point since we're practically connected to it, it becomes well over 100k 😱

Travis thanks for the great video!
