    The Chipotle Mexican grill on 9th street was called The Ivanhoe restaurant & bar when I lived there in 1967. The big high rise next to it was the IGA grocery store. The Field House & Willie’s was one big bar called Ford’s Theater, I bartended there. I googled Columbia & took a tour online & I hardly recognize it. They made a parking lot out of half of what used to be beautiful peace park (McCallister park) sad.

    Any apartments that are outside the college area/scene? I’m 27 and don’t want to be in the college area really, but I like how affordable Columbia is which is what catches my eye

    Do not live here. Buy my house in Florida so that I can retire where I should have retired - Columbia, MO. You wouldn't like it there. It snows. It is nowhere near the beaches or theme parks. So just move to Florida - no income tax!

    Thanks for the neat window into the place, I love the small town vibe and variety of things to do, particularly the True/False festival. I had a scary dream I was in Kansas City once and met someone from your city, but I haven't been to either place, and certainly don't ever remember hearing or reading about Columbia before that dream, quite odd. I must have picked up the name subconsciously somewhere.

    My son Kullen was almost human trafficked in columbia after dating someone named Denzel Fitzgerald Ransom. Turns out the supreme court judge of ND was paying for his phone. We varely got him out of there. The tiger villiage was in on it. Scariest place ive ever been.

    He kind of lost me when he started talking about driving out to see a big freaking tree in the middle of a field. If it is that boring there than no thank you. I would totally get to the field get out of my car look at the tree look around be like meh shrug my shoulders get back in the car and drive back to where I started from wondering why I drove out there in the first place.

    8:10 The first time I saw that scene, there was a pickup truck parked broadside behind the tree and I couldn't see it. The tree is that big.

    Excellent presentation. I am a Canadian citizen of London, Ontario, Canada. I accessed your channel because I admire the creative artistry of actress, Miss Michelle E. Hendley, who resides in Columbia, Missouri, and is employed with Riversong Spa & Salon. Canadians love Michelle. I wish her every success. And thanks again for posting your presentation. Best wishes to YOU for every success too.

    I was born at Boone hospital,lived near Huntsdale, but we moved when I was 2 unfortunately. Moved back in 1981, got married there. MU hospital was my son's home away from home for about 10 years. Joseph Williamson, my 4th great grandpa, bought the land the Bur Oak stands on in the early 1800's and it's still in the family.

      Best apartment I’ve stayed in was at the Grayson Cottages. Reasonably priced, only about 3 miles away from campus AND they have a shuttle that’s pretty reliable.

    • @tompilkington7379

      I was there for schoolin early nineties and stayed till 98 but then there was lots of rentals. I lived in the roadway apartments. Because it was cheap. 290 a month not each but total. Right across from the stephens lake and golf course which was nice at night to sneak in and skinny dip after a long hot day. I wouldn’t recommend it unless u want cheap. The. Best thing I think to do is rent a house. They were pretty cheap. Stay away from the places behind Frat row on broadway. Also do you want to live with a. U ch if students or not? BroadwAy ends at forum and you can continue goi ng straight down the hill there And it’s a very hilly curvy road. Goes right by rock bridge park. Can’t remember the name of the road but there were awesome houses back along that road. Lots of families so not loud and crazy like behind frat row but it was great. I loved on blackberry lane. Great house with a lake to swim fish skate on. More down that road. It hooks up with I think with nifong road south of town and there were new apartments going up but mostly farms. It’s where Walmart farm is (lauries not Walton’s) forms the best place I lived was an old farmhouse out on 63 towards Jeff city. Farther than te. Miles but quiet and beautiful. You can find these houses all over but a little out of town. That’s s where I would live. Some are within ten.

    So impressed with the style and your voice and choice of music. Great job on the video! I am older and still working along with my wife. Really like biking on trails. Like whole foods, trader joes, etc.. I am from CA and have looked at Raleigh, Greenville SC, Chattanooga, Charlotte, Augusta GA area, I will miss the bay area but have to move because of cost. Curious on your take on things and how this compares to other places you have lived except Japan as that is not a consideration lol.... Was also thinking of Fayetteville area Ark . Curious if Springfield area offers more to do? Job situation and being able to find a house is important. Don't mind a college place as long as there is more to it then that! Also don't want to feel like I can't drive to other cities nearby to get away when needed so don't want to be isolated.

      I totally understand your disappointment. Like I said at the end of the video, there are tons of places I regret not covering. I knew a couple friends who attended CC and it’s a great option for those who don’t want to spend too much on tuition.
