I grew up in Kent...on North Lincoln Street...haven't been back for a few decades but from the video here the downtown area sure has changed...I graduated from both Roosevelt HS and Kent State...Living in Columbus now so a visit back to Kent is not that far to travel...Go Flashes!
Hey! I live in Kent Ohio and you did miss out on a pro of how peaceful it is here and how nice it is to go to Downtown kent and have a good time and you can't forget the walking trail!
@@livinginnortheastohio8643 And yes when all the students leave its like peace to us. And before covid hit the bars would be packed and everything was fun during holidays and recently 2 officers were shot but they are both ok and most likely back on duty I believe
@@jaguar323 I haven't been to the bars in Kent in a while but my cousin went out and he said their was a good amount of people out which is good... and really?! I'll have to look in to that, that's crazy!
Really, really well done! Great transitions, B roll, and graphics. The only thing I would change is the studio sound quality...easy. You’re on your way.
Add another pro to the list- getting around. PARTA & Uber/Lyft. Pre-Covid19 there were tons of Uber/Lyft to get around. I drove Uber 2016-20 til I went self employed. Most of the drivers I know are driving again now that all restrictions are lifted.
I used to live in Kent, and heck I lived there ever since I was born, and which mean I lived there until I was 7, and the then we moved to the worst apartment complex of 2019 in new Albany
@@livinginnortheastohio8643 yeah I didn’t like it. I was just depressed, there was crime it wasn’t great. But atleast we moved to a place for a little and then moved to a even better place. I still miss Kent tho. I lived on north pearl street and I liked living there! I was sad when we moved out but I hope I can live in Kent again.
I do plan on doing more videos in Stow, Hudson, Twinsburg, and Akron. I do like Brimfield, especially the location. Just outside of Kent and access to 76 in minutes.
Two tips. 1. work on good audio levels, I had to crank my volume from where it was watching about 10 other videos. 2. > is greater than, not less than. Good video though.
Nice, where are you stationed at? The best thing about Kent is the vibe. Since the university is here you’re gonna see a bunch of people out and about all the time. They are opening up a few more shops in the coming year so it’s definitely growing.

how many cuts in your video bro? and you have the nerve to add bloopers lol
Haha this was my first video so talking on camera was not easy. Wish I could knock it out in one take.
@@livinginnortheastohio8643 I'm not hating. Thanks for your video man. Just let the tape roll. It's better and more genuine than the cuts
learn genetic racism here!!!!
