Most Dangerous Neighborhood in Albuquerque May Surprise You

- While researching for my videos, I came across some crime information around Albuquerque and was shocked at the neighborhood that was listed as most dangerous.
Albuquerque is only dangerous if you look for trouble or go to the areas that are knowingly unsafe. The gun violence is increasing everywhere, not just Albuquerque. And what part of town do you live in? Show us your neighborhood. You must feel privileged.
I've shown my neighborhood. I hear gunfire all the time. I was born and raised here and love Albuquerque. Unfortunately, we are in the top percentile for violent crimes per capita.
Ps. The point of this video was to show a nice neighborhood that was listed as most dangerous, in other words the stats can be deceiving. Thanks for watching!
That literally describes everywhere...
I don't think people being carjacked at gunpoint, or being randomly beat to death, or being hit by stray bullets are out looking for trouble. NM and Abq have a reputation and bad stats for a good reason. Anyone making constant excuses for the state needs to ask why and stop. Until people actually confront that reality and take action to make it better.. it simply won't get better.
You literally just described every single state/city across America.
Thank you for showing us the different areas of Albuquerque.
It could be that that area is only considered a "high crime area" during the evenings.
You don't have to be looking for trouble...
I got shot by a gangbanger near San Mateo & Menual in the early 90's attempting to steal my bicycle. I didn't know it at the time, but he had just robbed a convenient store. I fought him because that's the kind of person I am, I take no crap from anyone. I surprised this ignorant, overweight gangbanger who wasn't expecting a fight, but he got what was coming to him eventually, and he shot me like the coward he was as I was leaving the scene... I moved away two years later and I've never returned despite still having friends live there.
Thank you for this video. I have never been to that area of Albuquerque.
Love ur videos. Thanks for sharing
Thank you and thank you for watching!
I always lived on the northwest side town when I lived there. Most of the northeast side seemed pretty good just older for the most part. I would have thought off central area would be worse.
It probably is. Of course that was the point that I couldn't figure out why they area was listed as such.
Missed this one Big G. Yeah unfortunately ABQ has a pretty high property & violent crime rate when compared to a lot of other large cities in the USA. However, I'm glad you focus on the good things most all the time. Thanks for sharing.
I was an airforce kid and we moved to town in 1959 when i was 9 I enjoyed albuquerque and at the age of 40 had to leave because as a machinist all of the machine shops were having a hard time and because the state became a right to work state, i moved to Portland Oregon so i could find a job in a good union shop. It was the best decision i ever made in my life. I have watched the economy of Albuquerque continue on the down hill path to this present day. I miss all the natives and their strong cultural influence, I miss all the wonderful restaurants also. I found a wonderful house at a bargain price, and now i have a teamster pension to help me enjoy my golden years.
You did the right thing for your life! From the 505, glad you're doing well.
I agree with you! Doesn’t look dangerous too me! I haven’t even heard of Jackson area . I heard the War Zone is bad. Which is like Gibson & Zuni area. Thanks for sharing! I learn something everyday! But I probably would still go on that area ! Personally I think we always need to be on our toes these days! Again thanks
God Bless you for doing these vlogs. Lost a son to addiction and homelessness in Albuquerque last year. I will started watching you hoping to catch a glimpse of him, perhaps. We cannot change those who refuse change. Thank you for showing the beauty of Albuquerque in just every day things❤
My condolences. Thank you for joining the journey. God Blessed 🙏
It’s all a State of mind. If you go to an area With It’s a Negative area on your mind most likely gonna find some Negative Stuff!! You sir are all kinds of Positive so you bring out The Best of New Mexico I love ya Man 🫡
Thanks much!!
That’s where I grew as a kid on Indian school walking to the Walmart as a kid :)
You should check out duranes New Mexico not far from we're you were at
if i walk outside i can se the octupus car wash .. or watever its called now
I suspect this area is more dangerous AFTER dark...
ur right bye my house that trail goes all the way down to the mall
For such a dangerous neighborhood they sure do a good job of cleaning the graffiti
Yes, which makes it more interesting why this area has such crime numbers - surprising...
goes from above tramway down threw eubank bye menuel and past the mall
So it’s not the south valley like everyone thinks huh ?
True
I'd have to say Jackson Area is one of the safest and friendliest neighborhoods ive ever lived in. All my kids went to school at Jackson Mid School and surrounding elementary schools, McCollum, Acoma. Good neighborhood.
I mean you are filming in the day possibly early morning after dark any city can change!! We went to Venice beach it’s so beautiful but at night the beach is filled with homeless tents as far as the eye can see
I've never once felt threatened or worried about anything when I'm in Albuquerque. Of course I'm always armed no matter where I'm at so that gives me a level of confidence that most don't have who aren't carrying. I've lived in Santa Fe for four years and only once had a problem with a homeless guy who tried to fight me but he wasn't no daisy. I now live in Pecos and have for over ten years and I wouldn't want to be anywhere else. It's funny though when I hear about how dangerous it is here but I'd be willing to bet that the people who say that haven't lived in Dallas Texas like I have or some place like that. Yeah I've seen dangerous people in dangerous places. It's not to say that I couldn't become a victim of a violent crime but I really believe for the most part people make themselves a victim of it in one way or another. If you mind your own business and carry yourself as someone who doesn't appear weak and easy to overtake then you won't have any problems anywhere you go. Most thugs and criminal type go after the easy targets.
Thank you for your insightful comment!!
I'll drink to that...
I grew up in Albuquerque's international district, better known as the war zone.
I'm now 40 married raising my kids here teaching them right.
Santa Fe and ABQ aren’t really comparable. ABQ is more dangerous than Dallas these days but it all depends where you’re visiting I guess
I live in that neighborhood. Its okay. Not the best in ABQ. But theres WAY worse neighborhoods to live in in ABQ. Like really really bad places to live. That area is fine.
Those were the stats at that time.
I lived there for 10 years, there was a fair amount of homeless and drug activity , its been 3 years
Could the crime be robberies? There sure are a lot of businesses and stores.
Most likely
Everybody still sleeping or working go at night
Why? just showing the area related to the stats at that time; not trying to catch crime.
Alcazar St. south of Central. I got out before crack and meth hit, just heroin and coke then. I'm sure it's better now..
..
I personally do not agree but it could be one or two repeat offenders that are let out continually.
Yeah, it's hard to know what the exact circumstances were at that time to come up with these statistics. It is a different neighborhood each month with the highest rate. But stats are stats.
Looks like it always has
Yep, appearance doesn't relate to the statistics at that time.
You think thats bad - come a couple hundred miles South to EL Paso TX!
Is there any crime there?
I drive threw here everyday and I've never seen a homeless person, drug user or anyone asking for money. Even though this was recorded 10 months ago, this area has not changed. You want to see what Albuquerque looks like, go show Texas st, Utah St, Rhode Island and Zuni! That's where the action is!!😂😂
That's the point. The documented statistics i showed at the beginning stated that this area had the highest crime rate. Nothing to do with homeIess or drugs. have over 500 Videos, I've covered all the ' bad' stuff and lived in the war zone for 15 years.
John Kerry rented a car at the airport and drove to the valley driving around shooting cows
😲 that's terrible!
I live here. At nit WHO KNOWS 😅
Thats not a bad place. Visit the War Zone
Ive done several videos on the war zone. I lived there for 15 years. The point of this video is that the statistics showed high crime as I indicated
Go there at night 😂
Right? May be a whole different story.
I seen worse than this no homeless and dirty where you live in the heights is more decent then the war zone
Please check out my video The Downside of Albuquerque that few ever see
Albuquerque a whole hood it’s dangerous everywhere
I don't know what the hell they're talking about I live at Eubank and Menaul I have no problems with crime you know maybe I've just been lucky to run into the right people you know I really don't know what they're talking about I always thought that area what's the International District or what they used to call the war zone
That was the statistics at that time!!!
What a Bozo, The fact is that is a nice area , especially in Albuquerque NM, Pennsylvania and Central and Trumbull hood to Comanche And Carlisle, Montgomery and San Mateo, Westgate, and pretty much all if International district, South valley and West Side and Downtown are most dangerous areas in Albuquerque NM, all day
That's the point. The stats make it look bad. You should check out my other videos of some rough areas, especially " The Dark Side of Albuquerque." I have over 450 videos and have lived here for over 55 years, I'm very familiar with Albuquerque. But the positives are my thing on this channel. Thanks for watching!
No disrespect man, I look back at my comments and what an ass I was fir saying that.... I'm just tired of Albuquerque NM and all the violence it's suffocating
