Richmond made me crazy. Oakland made me tough. Only place I ever lived where you were in danger no matter who you knew or how innocent you were. Thanks, Oakland. I learned a lot.
This has to be an exaggeration right? I’m moving there soon and it seems like it is perfectly safe as long as you stay out of the sketchier neighborhoods
Nice video. You should take a ride on the Oakland-San Francisco ferry. Fanstastic view of both cities, and the Bay Bridge, from the water for half an hour each way.
I never knew where Oakland was until I watched your video I found an Oakland raiders shirt and decided to look it up I am from Hamilton New Zealand 🇳🇿 now you have educated me and I now know that Oakland is in California
As a native of Berkeley who has lived in Berkeley and Oakland, I really enjoyed this. Made me homesick a little. Just a small nitpick; you said "Cal-State Berkeley". It is UC Berkeley. This matters because California has two different university systems; the CSU (Cal State) and the UC (University of California). Great video still.
@@djspair Why do I have to "do" anything? Many UA-camrs appreciate it when someone who is familiar with an area give them more accurate information and don't take it as a challenge. At least mature people don't anyway.
Nice review. Oakland, "The Town," has been getting a lot of bad press of late with violent crime. Good to see the city presented in a rather positive light in this video. By the way, the Warriors basketball team no longer play in Oakland, but in their new arena in San Francisco.
Thanks a lot for that one! It brought back a lot of memories from my time at Cal. During my graduate stint I lived on Telegraph Avenue, a hive of college activity. Some alums may take you to task for calling it "Cal State, Berkeley". When I went there in fifties and early sixties, the California State Colleges were just being established. The University System had been in existence for nearly a century. I'm surprised you didn't use the Bay Area Rapid Transit System (BART) to get around. I voted for it, when I was going to Cal, and use it now whenever I visit the area. It saves a lot of driving and walking. Keep up the good work. I discovered you in Living in Arizona and only recently subscribed to Island Hopper TV. I enjoy them both.
Always enjoy your videos. You might want to include all the phenomenal hiking among Redwoods in the 4k acre Regional parks, Chabot Space Center (a Smithsonian venture) the Oakland Zoo, the Oakland museum and the Rockridge area for foodies.
Seeing this video brought back fond memories of the 4 years (1987-1991)I lived in Oakland when I was in the Army stationed at the Old Oakland Army Base on Maritime Street which no longer exists. My only not-so-fond memory is having been there (although thankfully, I survived!) when the Oct 17th, 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake struck the Bay Area. I was on the Hayward BART station at the time. Used to go to the NAS Alameda PX and Commissary and the South Shore Shopping Center to eat at the "Sizzler". Last time I was there was in 2003. Would love to go back there again some day but it's very difficult now that I am older and live far away in Kentucky. In the meantime , I am happy to travel vicariously through YT videos like this.
Thanks for the tour. I was searching for hotels to stay at in Oakland for an event I have to attend. I’m not from Oakland and all I found was bad reviews and basically don’t stay or don’t visit Oakland. Someone even said good luck renting a car and park at any hotel they will break in it at almost every hotel. Then someone said stay at the Marriott but they have roaches and dog poop. Geesh 😅 . I want to visit even if I wasn’t going for work just to see the culture. But I was afraid until I saw this tour. Thanks for sharing
Dammm this makes oakland look pretty decent let me know wheere to avoid ..i might be accepting a job that located there however it is a remote job. So some visits may be required
No way Oakland. My mom and I after everybody who migrated after WWII from Jim Crow Louisiana ever born in Oakland. Oakland, need's too get seriously straightened out before visitors come for a visit it's been 10 years since I've seen the city of my Birth and yes if I was a billionaire I'd be spending on ways to make Oakland healthier and enjoyable but massive size social issues is taking place that makes my City of birth a little more dicey.
Jesus Christ is the son of God who died and rose three days later and loves all of you. He died for everyone and wants you with Him, to know Him and live for His glory. Come be saved eternally and spend time with Him to know Him. Be saved, free, forgiven, healed, delivered, baptized, whole and let Him show you how He is everything you need. 🕊️💕Live righteous and Holy because He said to and paid for our way to live like Him. Ask anything in His name and the Father will do it amen hallelujah praise God thank you Jesus . 🙏 I lift up everyone's prayers, wants and needs to You Jesus, please pour out blessings. May Your favor, grace and mercy be upon the world. In Jesus name come help us all. You know our needs and everything else about each of us. In Jesus name amen thank you Jesus praise God 🙏 Jesus, Help people to be rooted and grounded in Your love and to obey Your truth. That they are living in the truth being taught by You. That they know Your voice and word. Knowing truth from errors, discernment. 💕 We are ambassadors of Christ. We represent God, when we are seen Jesus should be seen, His ways not ours. We should be living for and showing God, living for His glory. We are to be an example of Jesus for the world to see Him and want to know Him and know Him more. 🙏 🔥 2 Chronicles 7:14 says, if My people humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways I will hear them from heaven and heal their land. 🙏 💖 People need to turn from their wicked ways, Jesus paid for it. That's God stating it in that verse and there are more verses. People need to repent, to be cleansed by His blood and live Holy because He's Holy and righteous because He's righteous. Our God said to stop sinning in many many scriptures and He paid for everyone to be cleansed of sin (Isaiah 53), and to live how He said. He dwells in the Holy temple (your body) and said not to defile the temple. He said to defile the temple is death. He's always serious about everything He said to do. He's just as serious about what He said not to do. We live in obedience to His law, every word if it! He dwells within us all to be with and lead us in His ways. 💕🙏🔥 🕊️ Deuteronomy 28 there are blessings for obedience and curses for disobedience. The whole chapter, and verse 46 is one example of generational curses. These go into the following generations, the 3 and 4th. Our children pay the price for our sin. Stop sinning you are sending consequences to yourself and to your loved ones, children. By God's law you are. If you don't believe me ask Him, in Jesus name may you see and know the truth in it's fullness. Love your neighbor as you love yourself. Jesus is worthy of everything He said and paid for, so I implore you to do as God said. Jesus said If you love me you will obey my commands. Love Him with all your heart, mind, soul and strength.💖🔥🕊️ 🙏 Praise God 🙏 🙏 Hallelujah Jesus 🕊️ In Jesus mighty name 🙏🔥🕊️ 💖
Let's just shorten it to Oakland, DO NOT VISIT. Don't visit San Francisco either. Stay away From HellLA. If you are visiting Sacramento, its probably for business. Anaheim, as long as you are within the park and convention center. San Diego is your best bet to visit California at the moment. It has California problems, but not as much as San Franshitco and HellLA
This guy is completely lying. Do not come to Oakland unless you want to get robbed your car broken into it does not look like this at all. He only took videos of literally places that didn’t show the truth. Do not come out here. This is terrible content because you’re lying. You need to actually warn people the dangers of Oakland don’t make it seem like it’s a great vacation place.
Well done, you can graduate from a great college, but you will come out brain washed by democratic teachers. My uncle told me this, as he dropped out of college, he is almost 75 and smarter than most college graduates.
University of California Berkeley, as its name tells you, IS a state university. It is the most elite state university in the United States, the top "Public Ivy," i.e., the group of state universities--UCLA, UC Davis, UC Santa Barbara, UC San Diego, UC Riverside, University of Michigan, University of Virginia, University of North Carolina (Chapel Hill) et al.--that provide rigourous educations and settings that are on par with the ancient eight Ivy League. There are three tiers of state universities in California: city colleges; "State University" (San Francisco State University, Northridge State University, etc.) and the top-tier, elite "University of California," of which U.C. Berkeley is the most prestigious. Mike, a word: RESEARCH a subject before posting.
You answered yourself; it’s a UC, not a Cal State. Clearly, you weren’t educated at either, so maybe YOU should do your research before criticizing others.
@@mikevchu : Mike, your ex-post facto argument is as risible as it is embarrassing. You claimed that University of California is not a state school. It is. The very name indicates that it is a state school. I provided you the three-tiered California state school designations, of which the "UC" designation confers said school the status of belonging to the most elite tier of California's state schools. You didn't know that. You didn't articulate the tiered state california university system, and now you whine after the fact that you meant what I pointed out to you? STFU. You've been "schooled," lol. And no witless esprit d'escalier attempt at wit will change that fact.
California transportation is so troublesome without bus but road jam... All private cars should be banned and changed to electric trains like San Francisco...

Thanks for the tour of Oakland!
Never stop making this! It’s amazing
Next tour of East Oakland😉
Jack London, I have been here many years ago. A nice place to enjoy peace of Oakland, it helps me recalling a wonderful trip in the bay area.
Nice video. You should take a ride on the Oakland-San Francisco ferry. Fanstastic view of both cities, and the Bay Bridge, from the water for half an hour each way.
I’m form Memphis Tn I just did that a day ago yayyy Oakland I’m still out here enjoying myself
My hometown. Thanks for showing how beautiful the town can be. Berkeley, too.
Hi

City is very clean & pretty I didn't expect that !
I would be surprised if Oakland was dirty, unlike San Francisco!
notice how he didnt go to east oakland
@@JCM289 😂😂😂😂
Oaklandistan is filthy in many areas. I used to live there. It’s gone downhill big time. Tons of crime and homeless there.
@@cortezmiller1899I’ve been to both and Oakland is worse then San Francisco
I had a good time here in Berkeley University when my nephews were studying at that time.
Been there done that! Oak Town and San Francisco! Awesome place to be awesome place to live.
True! Visit Oakland/Sanfransisco in 2019 ! Loved it!
Just finally seeing this! I live near Oakland and didn't know about some of the places you pointed out. Thanks!
Stayed here..motel got raided.tons of gang activity..best low rider vehicles I ever saw..rough

Yes, exactly my point There is some misinformation when it comes to the names. Could you not tell I was being facetious?
Check out some of the Oakland hills and Montclair. That is the nice area.

If you came to alameda today you’d be blown away and maybe a little bittersweet because south shore and the whole alameda is so different now
Go Oakland!
@LiamBeauvais-xg8ve bruh 2 years ago I posted this why you responded
Other things to do in Oakland, get shot, get kidnapped, be a victim of a violent crime

Dammm this makes oakland look pretty decent let me know wheere to avoid ..i might be accepting a job that located there however it is a remote job. So some visits may be required
LOL oakland travel guide. Do south chicago next.
barring anything else the oakland athletics are moving to las vegas, i have read a few of Jack London's books
I already visited La but wanted to go to Oakland is there any close cities are is it good to stay in Oakland for vacation
What about shipping malls and outlets
I have a question
Why is there more snow in Oakland than San Francisco?
They must put prayer back in the school system in Oakland. Jesus is the Way the Truth and the Life.
God is Love.
Lol I live in Oakland and my new middle school is is down town Oakland
Oakland ❤️
I don’t understand why Oakland is not just as expensive and gentrified as SF? It’s a city smack dab in the country’s most wealthy area.
It's getting there...
#RestoreTheSnyderVerse
I heard it was all trashy there but looks good
Oakland has half of the population that of San Francisco & Oakland is about twice as big. Nice 👍🏼 vibes!
When visiting Oakland, be sure to bring your flack jacket and helmet. Better yet, do not visit Oakland.
Rename it to a “Berkeley “ guide ;)
