The missing piece to these overseas hood walks is not being able to connect with a trustworthy local that can share stories of the area. Once you have that sussed I think it'll blow up internationally
That’s exactly more or less what I just messaged him about lol
faacts
I feel the same. This is like looking at the cover of a book but never reading its contents.
100
The value that the locals have provided in the aussie hoods have been undeniable
Sometimes watching Spanios catching public transport in foreign countries is more entertaining than the actual hood walk
I died when they asked him for a ticket lmao
I don't get it, what was the situation with his ticket? Did he even get it, or did he lose it, or what?
Why not pay for a ticket? Freeloaders, blä.
Is he Greek
As a Romanian i must say that these flats are in a very good condition! In Romania in bigger cities there are flats full of mold, on some parts piece of the flat are falling of,inside the flat is full of rubbish,elevators not working all the time etc!
they have almost no excuse for the crimes they do. they live better than most eastern europeans and still think life forced them to shoot people xaxaxa
Yes, the cold weather and the laws and regulations in Sweden doesn't allow for buildings to become like what you describe. The living conditions has to be met and the municipal housing company has to repare if they want to rent out the flats in their building, and since there is a housing crisis and its hard to get a place for low income people and young people, there are no appartments empty to become moldy. The central heating is always on in the nordic countries.
It's obviously not about the flats but who lives in them
Whats crazy is that those apartment buildings still looks insanely better than most in eastern europe.
Built by native Swedes..... occuped by peopel from shithole countries
I don't think so. Plus, Eastern Europe is much safer than whatever this horribleness that Swedes have allowed themselves is.
Depending where you look. Nowadays you will find delapidated buildings only in the likes of Romania or Bulgaria.
this guy is complaining about architecture and block s design, which for a social housing looks more than better in comparision to eastern block.
They are not even made that well
As a Norwegian who's moved to Australia, the sun going down really early in winter is awfully depressing, but then you have the sun up until like 1-2am in summer, which is absolutely euphoric, especially when you're young.
Same here from Scotland we get sun to 11-11.30pm in summer currently in Gold coast 7pm dark and its summer 😫
@@johnantonine4505 in Australia sun stays up till 7

There's nothing wrong with these blocks, they're looking better than most other afordable housing blocks anywhere else.
Boy wants to make it look interesting and different, but yeah those are regular blocks.
I live in london and this guy just got lucky most of the time theres gangs every where and it looks a mess but the next day its all calm it really depends you can't just go to one of these areas one time and call it quits
@@Shadow_ball The fuck? I can tell you one-hundred percent that gangs in Sweden will leave you alone so long as you don't fuck with them. Just like anywhere, steer clear of suspicious people, don't interact if you feel unsafe. You will NOT get shot or robbed in Sweden - that is exceptionally uncommon. they don't give a shit about "normal" people, only their gang opponents.
The problem isn't the blocks.
@@nighteyes360 It's the gd camel riders.
Props for not speaking to locals and only speculating about the place🔥🔥
I was waiting the entire video until he met up with someone he had organised to show him around, introduce him to people, and give context. This was the biggest nothing burger I've ever seen. Is this a tax write off video for visiting the country or something?
We coulda google maps this and got more info!
:P Completly agreed. Just dramatic "oh my god, this railling on this balconay is made out of such a cheap material.." wtf.... :P No context, no respect for what actually does and does not happened there...poor quality docu..@@bruddaozzo
@@obehave8178 Yeah, bikes are locked, so dangerous
I’m from Malmoe and literally everything he said was wrong 😊
I actually live in Malmö and to give you a background about these houses, they were mostly built in the 1960s due to socialism taking over and the lack of housing during that century. They were actually considered nice areas to live in at first. Then after the economy got better people could move to better places and they got “replaced” by immigrants mostly from places like Balkan and Chile. So these areas slowly started to become poorer and poorer. Now especially after 2014, thousands and thousands of immigrants from the Middle East came here with no plan, education and lack of government policies. These areas all around Sweden are quite dangerous due to drug trafficking and gang wars. They very rarely target ethnic swedes. Malmö is still a top city to live in and the suburbs of Stockholm is now far worse…
Same in every city in Europe...
Same happening in Finland. People come from middle east etc and bring problems with them instead of trying to fix those problems in their own country.
@@Steppeni braindead comment right here
@@Steppeni makes you wander who create these problems in said countries?? Noooo it can’t be the endless destabilisation and endless economic imperialism!! It’s that they don’t work hard enough to fix it!!!! Scumbag…

The only thing this video established was that the guy walking around found the quality of the buildings to be subpar. We learned absolutely nothing about the "ghetto" and "gun capital of Europe"
Yeah and they were prison grade and too secure but they were also badly built smh. Makes a lot of sense if you ask me xD
Nice one saved me watching more than the ten minutes I've already seen
I mean , its by no means beautiful houses when you get off the train, but "in that bad condition"? Perfectly working houses, intact, with all the amenetis.
Am i the only one who thinks those housing blocks werent even that bad?
Im from there. The vid doesnt show how bad it is.
I know Australia must be so nice damn i wanna go. This place looks considerably better than where i am in the uk and its not government housing im in 😅
In Australia you will work 6 days a week .just to be able to live there..and Groceries are Very Expensive.....You will need to earn mega bucks to live well..England looks after people who have very little...
I live nearby but come the USA, it’s much worse in the states. I lived in the hood as a teen in Texas.
@@smitz7847private housing in Sweden can be worse than public housing. Public housing housing usually have a quite high lowest standard, whereas in private housing could find some really unserious owners.
The place looks a lot nicer than any of the other hoods you've been to honestly, there's no garbage, things are taken care of, people are out with their kids and stuff, no people being weirdos, no random moto rats.
Swedish "ghottos" are not abandoned by the municipal or are state, at least not yet. Garbage disposal are being taken care of. Green areas are well kept, etc... I am afraid if there comes a time ahead of us where the state/municipal doesn't have the money to uphold certain standars. Things can really take a nasty turn for the worse.
@@runeskyttsing9089 that time will be with you sooner than you think. Is Sweden still having a rape epidemic?
There are no people living there.
Yeah feels like its a matter of time before it all becomes a no go zone, even more than it currently is@@runeskyttsing9089

Man I found you from a TV interview in Greece and now I am obsessed with you channel, amazing content !
You are really grasping at straws with this one. Just walking around and pointing at buildings and saying how they aren't in great conditions. Like yeah they are 50 year old commie buildings, of course they won't be stellar quality. But everything considered these are in pretty good condition. The area is clean and quiet.
You keep saying that you feel unsafe and getting bad vibes but you have no reasoning behind it other than your feelings. I get that you want to get views for your channel and you probably wanted something to happen as an example of how terrible Sweden is, but a normal day is incredibly boring in Sweden, even in these poor neighborhoods.
Exectly. I think its wierd that a dude who supposedly did 13 years in prison would create that type of content that caters to "them other folks". Instead of finding some locals and give a truthful depiction of the neighborhood. Not hating on the channel but he needs to step his game up as a journalist.
I started facepalming as soon as he entered that neighbourhood especially when he said something about the quality of those houses and that they are definitely 110% social houses. Makes me feel like he hasn’t seen too much in this world or was living in Nárnia.
He is a complete idiot obviously. Compare it to Norrebro, hipster area in Copenhagen. These exact areas exists basically everywhere in western Europe. In Denmark they have "ghetto laws", trying to tear down buildings because they consider things that bad.
Houses looks fine to me. They need to be cleaned. That’s about it. But yeah, they built to close to eachother.
This is how most appartment houses looks like in Sweden. But not all areas has the same social issues. So, well that’s that. It is what it is.
Literally the same. He's just a clown that fell for that "worst neighborhood in Europe" PR stuff, came there for the content, saw an average European 1960-80 block and started making up shit to make "content"
The whole appeal of his channel is that he was locked up in jail so didn't get to the see the world. It's fun watching it through his opinion
"look at the state of these apartments" *touches a perfectly intact fence with a tiny speck of rust* I chuckled at that.
I'm Swedish, And Rosengård was built in the 60s, Built above all for Swedes who wanted to get closer to bigger cities to work, including people from our neighboring countries. Rosengård, Rinkeby and similar areas were once fine and well-functioning areas, without crime and violence.
The areas became dysfunctional at the rate of the large immigration from the Middle East and Africa. Sad but true.
rinkeby och resten av blåa linjen har haft problem sedan 70 talet när fattiga svenskar flyttade dit varför ljuger du💀
yep, totally, if there is something wrong it is caused by inhabitants or political approach - houses itself are just typical mid 20th century apartment blocks, I really wasn't able to sport anything that bad about them.
Heard that explanation so many times before. Blame the immigrants or politicians..... its alot more complicated than that im afraid. But sure, political parties like SD likes to blame its opponent parties to gain points from the people for themselves. And ALL parties in one way or the other likes to blame the immigrants because its an easy get away an easy message too feed the people with. I'm so sick of this blame game that goes on in sweden.
@@yossigamaliel6976 Because immigrants from middle east and africa ARE the problem.
@@yossigamaliel6976 Yeah you obviously know nothing about the politics in Sweden. Why do SD blame the opponent parties? Hmm...Could it be because they ruined the country for monetary gain? Multiculturalism has and will never work, when are people gonna get that through their fucking heads?
I lived in Kroksbäck part of Malmö back in 2017. Never had any problems with Swedes or immigrants. My building was one of the concrete Soviet style, but it was nice, warm, quiet and clean. We even had wild rabbits coming into our building garden area and you could walk pas them and not scare them away. I loved all town and all of it, but my favorite place to go and chill was Limhamns beach area.
im swedish and this is all because of immigration
Yeah
Immigration of bad people, that"s the point
I know there are a lot of people who try to frame it differently, as if it's the convergence of many different elements to form this problem, but keepiing it real, it almost certainly comes down to uncontrolled immigration of people from incompatible cultures - in particular with that of Sweden.
It’s just a natural cycle. Sweden went so good uninterrupted for decades which were totally unnatural and probably a bit unfair to the world, so of course some problems will emerge. But let’s be honest, Sweden’s problem right now isn’t really even that major compared to other countries, even top tiered developed countries. And it isn’t that bad, it’s just that Sweden has been to good, so some mediocrity will be seen as terrible.
@@leojin5838it’s down to mass Migration simple as that
If this is ''the hood'' in Sweden, I can see why Sweden is so happy, like this is just a typical housing estate? It actually looks quite well kept and clean. It looks like Disneyland compared to the European hoods of France, Germany, UK, Italy, etc .😂
Doesn't matter. It's as dangerous or more dangerous than most hoods in Europe.
The looks don’t play a predominant role if you hear shots at night and get robbed on your way home
Sheep in wolf's clothing.
This is probably the worst looking area you can find in Sweden. They have similar, perhaps more dangerous, areas in Stockholm. But since Stockholm is a richer city, they invested more in making them look good.
@baileybuckley Looks can be deceiving, try going there at night and in summer.
Rosengård is my neighborhood, so it's very weird to have it talked about in this way. My experience with Rosengård and eastern Malmö as a whole has been safe, I can trust people and talk to strangers, never been in trouble. I'm friendly with immigrants who don't even speak swedish, and they're friendly right back. I think if you show fear and aversion towards a person, you will get the worst from them in return.
Try being homosexual in Rosengard.. I moved awqy because muslim migrants bullied me, even spit on
Exactly. Cause you have the right attitude towards people. Salute
It’s funny. I’m visiting Malmö, I would’ve thought this was one of the safest cities in Sweden, everybody’s been so friendly and coincidentally, I got off at Rosengård yesterday and didn’t think twice about it.
Yes it’s always about perceptions. Sweden has become like hell in the media’s message, but in reality, it is still really good and probably safer than a lot of places in the world, it’s just that the media can’t bare to see Sweden not being perfect anymore😂. As Chinese, I can deeply understand the feelings of misconceptions, because that’s what’s always been happening to my country. Similarly with Sweden, it’s far from perfect of course, but not nearly as bad as the media’s portrait.
@@holdencooper5558same thing in china, there’s a city called Handan and just recently they’ve had two cases of teenager’s murdering other people😢. Because of the severity of the case, the whole country now thinks Handan is this catastrophic nightmare, but in reality it’s just a normal city that is mostly safe, but of course psychopaths and devils exist
what i will say is the public housing i experienced in sweden was VERY very nice inside compared to the kind of stuff we get here in the uk, well thought out, felt nice and space efficient, well built. heating included with rent.
The wealth of public /social housing
British council houses are the best in the world
@@ArG00055 do you mean worst or what, they all suffer from mold/damp problems and the council will not fix a damn thing, none of the walls are straight it's like they paid the builder in advance with a bottle of buckfast
@@Newchannel50043 it does vary quite a lot to be fair, there are some fairly nice ones but I've definitely seen more borderline unlivable council houses than I have nice ones. Either way the main surprise for me with Sweden vs the UK are in the details like layout, one bedroom flat felt very very roomy. Huge windows, enough floor space to have the usual furniture and still be able to exercise or do whatever you gotta do. where as most of the places here in the UK, once you put a double bed in the room there's barely room to stand let alone much else.
I also feel like the damp problem definitely comes from shoddy building practice, I know you've got to stay on top of it but honestly after experiencing a house/flat where you don't have to wipe black mold away at least once a week you start to wonder what the fuck is going on
Sweden is Absurdistan.. We have a decent standard when it comes to housing but the people living in these places are far from Swedish. We have massive intergration problem, like a lot of countries in EU.
It definitely isn't the nicest area in town, but it does look far less depressing in the summer. The first time I was there I was quite surprised that it looked much nicer than I thought it would. A bit of green can do a lot. A lot of the apartments aren't that bad on the inside either, but the commie block architecture isn't much to look at inside or out. Also kinda funny that you managed to pinpoint the worst part of the area just by looking at it :D
All residential areas in the Nordics built by 70's and 80's are just as depressing. It is not just Rosengård.
@@Aquelll Yup. I grew up in a small village in the middle of nowhere and we had the same kind of multi-story apartment houses... They were just not as tall or plentiful. :D
Yea he has an eye for this stuff, he knew directly that Ramelsväg is the worst
Finnish politicians have been absolutely silent about this "progression" in our neighbor country. Leftists are "refugees welcome" no matter what. It's global in western countries.
Damn! Twenty kicks! Well you got my sub. Nicely done. 👍
I recently worked as a security guard in Malmö and was stationed at Rosengård and their shopping mall. Crime occured on a daily basis with so much rasism against the Swedes. I'm not saying everyone there is bad, far from it. I've had several nice connections as well but it's overbearingly bad there due to the separate culture and lack of adapting to our country.
And funny enough. At the apartment you pointed at when arriving to the block a man lives there who assulted his wife last summer when I was patrolling there. Heard them screaming. He had several diagnosis and should have been locked away. Really sad. In the 70's my dad used to live there and there where almost only Italians in his experience.
It actually gives me ptsd just to see that shitty area.
You are over exaggerating there is no racism against the Swedes they live there. It’s just people mind their own business and so should you. Perhaps shop lifting but stealing is extremely looked down upon in those communities and in RG centrum they would be steaiing mostly from their own communities 😂 It does happen but not often. Other crime yes, but it’s nothing to do with you, they wont touch you. If anything there is much worse neighbourhoods than RG stop trying to exaggerate it and make it seem like Straight Outta Compton to these people 😂
You are lucky you do not live in the Uk. Those flats look like holiday lets in comparison.
I agree with collinsmith. I used to live in London and most council estates I came across were in a worse state than the buildings in Rosengård. However, the crime levels might still be higher in Rosengård.
@@colinsmith1288 Rosengård is beutyful Simon dont knowe what he is talking about
cultural enrichment for the Swedes
Swede here. Rosengård back in the 90's and the begining of the 2000's was pretty bad nowadays it aint that bad tbh. Love that you came to sweden awesome content keep it up bro💪🇸🇪🤝🇦🇺
Exactly. IDK what people are talking about. Rosengård was way grimier and dangerous under the gypzies, Latinos and east Europeans.
i dont know if this is just forced "journalism" or stupidity but the buildings in Rosengard are not that bad. Sure, they arent fantastic and some of them are pretty worn down, but compared to the rest of the affordable housing in the world, even western, they're good.
Also Stockholm and surrounding areas are WAY, WAY worse than Malmö in gun crime. Malmö has successfully reduced its gun violence over the recent years and stockholm, well. it's been the opposite there.
Honestly what is wrong with the appartements? Why are locked doors like 'prisons'?
Isn't that normal for appartments? You press the doorbell an then they open the door?
Living the dream brother! it's amazing how someone who has really come from hard times to traveling the world keep it up!
20 years ago Sweden was a great example and really safe. We have allways had working imigrants from the balkans due to all the shiping yards during 1960s-90s. The million programme suburbs was mainly built to house the working imigrants that came. But then came the Kosovo/Serbia war refugees then the refugees from various Arab conflicts/wars. Now they run the place. Some of the places the ambulance and fire rescue need police escort to get in. But all the blame is on the politicians. I dont think Sweden will be go back to being what it used to be in my lifetime.
They'll have to figure out a way to deport them (back to their own countries) if they're not willing to integrate into the culture of a country.
Not really, I was living there 25 years ago and it was still shit. To see that kind of sweden you need to go pre-70s, before the immigration waves. 25 years ago it was already full of refugees and entire arab speaking neighborhoods. And I'm not talking about Malmö or Stockholm.
@@UL439 I guess your right. Im older then i tought =) I still remember a day in my class 92 and suddenly there was alot of new ppl that didnt know Swedish. But for me pre 90s i dont remember anny crime and shit like its now. Im myself a 3nd gen imigrant. my grandparents imigrated to Sweden during the 60s from Finland to Work the Shipyard and Tailoring factorys.
yes, the problem is with non-european migrants. these are NOT refugees, they are ECONOMIC MIGRANTS. deport all non-european migrants and the crime WILL END.
it's the birthrates...
The music in these vlogs is absolutely fucking banging. I love it all. Well done dude, you're a legend.
Did not expect to see Spanian in my home city of Copenhagen👌
Even went to Nørrebro.
You should go to Marseille in france, I’m from the US and ive been to a lot of places in Europe and Marseille was the one place I genuinely felt unsafe, especially les quartiers nord
All of france is like Africa
I'm French.
Marseille is no longer a French city, it's all Arab-Muslim, it's dirty and dangerous.
African and Arab-Muslim migrants have made French cities dirty and dangerous, and they are racist and hateful towards the West.
I'm sad to see my country destroyed.
@@GrahamPaul-mj6lg As a Brussels resident, it really depends on where you are. The city has some amazing districts and neighborhoods that are quite safe and lovely to be in. There are others that aren't so much. If you look at a demographic map of the city, the segregation is pretty stark - between rich and poor, European and non-European. There are certainly areas that aren't great to be around at nighttime, but it's not the whole city. It's not perfect here by any means, but I really enjoy living here nonetheless.
marseille had a seedy reputation even before all the immigration with the mafia etc but now I can only imagine to bad because the setting of the city by the sea is quite nice....good food to.
Ironically, for the exact same reason this part of "Sweden" is dangerous.
Sweden (along with several other Scandinavian & Northern European countries) is a perfect example of what happens when you not only allow unrestricted immigration from third world countries in North Africa & the Middle East but actually actively encourage it, just like The Greens & Labor's left wingers currently demand that we adopt here in Australia. Thank God we copped onto this here in Australia a while ago and now focus on bringing in almost exclusively educated and skilled migrants who will result in a net gain to our culture & economy; we learnt our lesson the hard way from the formation of impoverished ethnic ghettos in Cabramatta and the South Western Sydney suburbs of Punchbowl, Lakemba, Greenacre etc back in the 70's & '80s, and all the debilitating inter-generational poverty, violence and organised crime that these have spawned over the past 40-odd years.
You speak sense.............Blessings..............

Great to see you do this video. My wife is native from Malmo and we go back every year to see her parents and our friends back there. I’ve been going there since 2007 and it’s been increasing worse. However. The police have put a lot of resources into Malmo of late. Probably helps that you look like a local in rosengard. good work mate
Alright Spanian, I have to subscribe! Your vlogs are awesome! I've been to Malmo and Copenhagen several times.😊
It's just normal apartment buildings like in any swedish suburb! It's not "prison" or "ghetto", it's what the architecture was like everywhere here at the time. Also, renting is kinda the norm and you're not deprived if you don't own your home here. It's not like in the UK or US where renting is seen as the last straw. You're just walking around being judgemental from what media wants you to believe, or making things up. The reason you see the public housing going on and on, is that it's just normal architecture and how regular people live.
Should've talked to us locals. Rosengård ain't so bad anymore😂
Stockholm is the worst now
you got a new subscriber love the content bro
Scanning the ticket when getting out of the train, that was the funniest thing ive seen on the internet evaaaa…. 😂😂😂😂. Keep up the good vibe bro 👍🏼
I had a feeling you were going to swing by Rosengård! Sadly I did not stumble upon you...
I have been living here in Rosengård for whole my life which is comming up on 25 years now, really happy to see someone documenting my neighbourhood.
At 24:53 when you had your ghetto senses tingeling I can assure you that those senses are 100% correct. That area is divided into different subgroups with specfic names. In example, the area where you stood at 24:53 is called the "zigenar gården" which in other words translates to the gypsy neighboorhood, as you mightve guessed the vast majority there are gypsies. Each block has its own name based on the ethnic majorty of the block and that area has always been regarded as the worst place in Rosengård.
At 19:50 when you cross the bridge you clearly see the difference in how the neighbourhoods look. One side is more dark dull and while the other is more bright and vibrant. This really does translate into how safe the two areas are. Its as if the bridge is a representation of the divided safety of the area. The area with buildings with more bright color is regarded as the "safe" part of Rosengård. Its the place you would rather live in.
As to your question regarding private housing, there are some in Rosengård but you headed away from the area. You were ca 3 minutes away from it when you were playing fotball!
It very interesting to see an outside perspective of your own neighbourhood. For me things are normal and are changing for the better ofc, but then watching it from another persons perspective things really do seem depressing.
Thank you for the documentary!
Diversity is great eh
Hi, it looked clean.......In Oz there are worse places...........If you keep to yourself is it okay?..............Blessings..........
@dennissheckleburg9775 Diversity is our strength
You would’ve been the perfect person to guide Spanian around the Swedish hood. Thank you for your insight mate.
@@f.dmcintyre4666 Ive lived here for whole my life and had 0 problems with people. Ofcourse there are troublesome youth roaming around but which neighboorhood doesnt? If you keep to yourself as a normal human being you are just fine!
Love how when you came to "herrgården", the 'worst' area in Rosengård, you felt the tenseness in the atmosphere. You were right, it is the worst. I felt it a lot growing up in Malmö when I came to Herrgården. It was such a tense area.
I moved to malmö in 2012 and man.. im from NYC and felt tension I hadn't felt in harlem.. I had a gf living in the dorms in rosengård and I lived in hyille area then moved to amiralsgatan and stayed in industrigatan too... honestly it's not as bad as the media depicts it.. just like any other major city. If you don't have a reason to be in the apartment mazes people will prey on you..don't walk around late at night. Keep your head on a swivel. Don't walk around with headphones on etc.
@@MrJol420 That's really interesting and good advice. I realise it was cold and daytime but where are the residents? Do they come out at night here?
@@Isleofskye That's really weird one. And it got me thinking when I've been in Rosengard in August of 2018, nice weather, not too hot, yet the streets and sidewalks were almost empty. I guess it's just how it is. Sure there were cars and busses passing around, a bicycle here and there, but pedestrians were rare to see.
@@darenzy True,My Friend...
I lived one year in Rosengård and frankly I have no idea what you are talking about. One year walking around in the middle of the night without being bothered at the slightest. Maybe because I am from South America and I actually know what violence and "tension" looks like. Rosengård is much more calmer than the suburbs of Göteborg and Stockholm but gets the bad fame for being about 100% foreign. Maybe that is the "tension" you are talking about. Non white people. That is what makes you "tense".
My friend who passed away lived in the Stockholm hood and I remember walking about just thinking it was dead quiet and not threatening but then you’d read about grenade attacks a few streets from his flat
No way grenade like the one used in wars ?
@@creativeleodaily a lot of criminal gangs in Sweden come from foreign countries in 90s Yugoslavia Bosnia Serbia Kosovo today had loads of wars loads of refugees went to Sweden and then many weapons from that conflict got smuggled there so has a high amount of illicit weapons compared to other countries in Europe famous ibrahimovic parents were Bosnian for example or he moved as a child something like that.
Now Sweden has Iraqi Syrian Somalian gangs the old Balkan ones native biker gangs and plenty of weapons. I come from the uk and just visited Sweden what struck me is crime isn’t really visible in the street like it is in London you don’t see gangs of youths around looking sketchy I think it’s a lot more organised crime than petty turf wars that’s the impression I got anyway
I've lived in Sweden all my life, I keep reading about grenade attacks but I've never even come close to experiencing something like that myself
Yes.
@@RockLouit exploded close yp whet3 I lived. Before. Lucky I moved from the hood and livet in a gat3d community. Most of tje city of västerås is hoods anyway. They will probably mpve inside here to
So cool you went past Forum. That building at 1:43, went to Comic Con 2018 there, was great fun. Had several laughs about what you experienced in DK, the stairs and the driverless train haha. You also passed Fields at 4:29 which has sad recent history.
Yo bro can you do one in Stockholm theres some really really rough areas out here, your videos is fye gang🔥
I am an Aussie who lived in Sweden from 1996 to 2000 and this was the suburb where I had to go to learn Swedish (Swedish for Immigrants), a full time 12 month + course run by the Swedish Govt. Just seeing those buildings again gives me mild PTSD. LOL
That sounds terrifying. I'm glad I live just outside of Oslo, where it's safe. The center of Oslo is getting worse by the year, we've have had more shootings in Norway than in Sweden since New years.
how come it gives you PTSD? Did you have some bad experiences there?
Yeah it's hell. And being forced to grow up in a place like that, it's really hard to get out of it. I'm from Sweden btw.
@@Cadenzeitlol. It is because of immigrants it is hell. They are bringing hell with them. Free loaders complaining about infrastructure they could never dream of in their countries
@@Smettliseriously? Didn’t know Norway would become like Sweden
I would love to see you have a conversation with a local about the living conditions bro, be so interesting to know some of the local history from the locals, cheers mate stay safe
Yeah feels empty and soulless without local input
Oh yeah a local Somalis drug dealer really going to go on camera 😂😂 what planet are you on
They brought these living conditions with them, Sweden never used to be like this.
Yeah he can't do it all. Maybe you can. So you don't fill empty
Then the story would be destroyed. Whoever he could find would have a story opposite to the narrative he is trying to produce.
Legend mate 💯
Good content Spanian . I bet you will have 1 million subs in 6 months
As a swede who visited Rosengård before i know how sketchy it is, But to me it does not look that bad visually? These kind of suburbs called "million programme" are all over the country, always lots of foreigners. we have a big problem regarding integration. Usually the victims of shootings are other gang and gangmembers, as a "civillian" i don´t really feel scared entering these kind of areas.
why should we integrat huh? I will not bow to western mind.

Nice episode!
Btw i live in Sweden but further north from Malmö xD
I lived in sweden for 3 years .. there are many public housing areas in sweden .. stockholm has many as well .. on the outside they look really depressing but l have been in many blocks and inside in the apartments they are actually really well decked out and homely .. most were built in the 70s .. its really not that bad .. and in sweden even though its exoensive .. you get the best medical and education UNI included which means no student debts .. it was a great country to live in
Its not the buildings , its the people who live in them...they should all be deported IMO
Its not free. We pay with taxes. Unless you live on benefits like many in these ghettos, then we pay for you too.

Props for doing this one, theres like 20 similar neighborhoods in Malmö at the minimum aswell..
I actually currently live in Rosengård, close to the shopping centre but on the other side then where you walked. I’m a student originally from Germany and one of the biggest buildings in the area (I’d say) is student housing. It’s just this 1970 concrete wall of a building, nine stories high and I don’t know how many units wide. I’m not going to act like it’s a great place to live but it really isn’t as bad as it looks. Many of the places in the vide is where I usually cycle to university or buy my groceries. When I first moved here I was scared to be outside at night, but I’ve cycled home at three AM before and there really wasn’t any reason to worry. There definitely is some theft and drug dealing going on ( my bike got stolen from a locked garage) but in my experience you usually don’t get pulled in to that if you just do your thing. Obviously, I’m probably not as affected because I’m not really a local and the fact that I’m white could also play a role here.
I just think that a lot of people from Sweden and Malmö who have never lived here see the ugly buildings and the large immigrant population and assume that it’s only gangs drugs and misery out here. It can be really nice though, for example summer is way livelier than winter. I do think that people with migrant backgrounds or more generally people with less income are pushed out into these areas and ghettoised.
I walk through Rosengård to and from my white collar job five times a week, and have been doing so for almost 10 years. No one has ever bothered me. That is not to say that there aren't a lot of criminality but it's not dangerous at all to walk through the neighbourhood. At least not during day time.
eller hur jag älskar RG
Same bro, im from Lithuania, i was driving bicycle through rosengard , been stopped by local guys for a cigarete , i said i only vape we both laughed ,wished each other good luck and pedal away, its only dangerous for criminals , they fighting over drugs ,thats bad ofc, but just act normal and u will be good. Lithuania was way more dangerous when i was kid, we was fighting for fun in weekends ,so no one could scare us in Sweden , any hood any street im comfortable and had no problems.
And for a woman?
@@muhc8550 highly recommend for a woman to have a gun, period.
Rosengård is also by far much more safe than many suburbs in Stockholm, Gothenburg and Uppsala. There are problems, yes. But its reputation is living off ”old merits” so to say because it was Sweden’s ”first” so called No-Go zone and much of the mentality around it is stuck in the 90s and 00s. It has compared to other places actually moved in a positive direction with decreasing crime and murders. In 2023 there were no murders in Rosengård and only 5 in Malmö, making Malmö per capita equal or safer than Stockholm and Gothenburg for example.
Amazing how Span fits in to all hoods around the world
Aye ❤😂
Yeah. The way he's moving, walking and talking you see he used to be a thug.
he hasnt been to Chicago, Los Angeles or New Orleans yet
How does he fit in when he literally doesn't see or speak to anyone. Maybe should choose a warmer time of year so he actually see people.

Hey Spanain! Would appreciate an episode of Budapest´s hood. One of it's most feard street is called "Hös utca" (heroes street). Appreciate your videos!
I dont live in rosengård, but i work in rosengård almost every day. Yes the buildings is shitty. Buy the ppl are super friendly. Always removes bikes from the streets when im driving there, and they give me tea and cookies when im done with my job. One of my favorite places to work in. Imma plumber.
Doesn't look too bad to me, honestly. I watched the video on the Bijlmer (Amsterdam) yesterday and didn't think that was that bad either. I live in a similar place in the Netherlands and I guess its whatever you're used to, eh? Most of these apartment blocks are more than 50 years old! Built after WW2 when Europe needed a lot of housing very quickly due to the baby boom.
I've been to bad neighborhoods in Brisbane, Melbourne and Perth, Australia and the biggest difference is just the space people have. Apartments vs freestanding houses with gardens, depending on the area. Sure, the mixture of cultures and backgrounds is different, but like anywhere else, its the "bad" people that make it seem a bad neighborhood. In most cases it comes down to lack of (mental)healthcare and or the access to it, the drug-abuse and culture clashes.
Spanian should definitely go back when the people are outside and get some interactions. This isn't all that interesting to me.
Another great video brother, love seeing what it's like around the world. Thanks for the content and safe travels lad.
20:17 the murals on some of the buildings are actually painted by a group of artists that travelled through all of sweden and did projects like those in every town.
we have two of their projects here in my town as well. but we got a mural of a fox and a rabbit on the side of one of our buildings.
Came back in the Summer when the whole hood is outside!
Another top episode brother!
You need to go and do a Hood Tour of Cova da Moura, in Amadora, which is 30 mins outside of Lisbon in Portugal.
This is the last remaining favela in Europe! All buildings are built illegally, little laneways everywhere, it’s also a huge area for local rappers etc
Not the safest of places but go and check it out, it’s a spin out!
All the best
If you're stil in Sweden we can maybe manage to give you a guided tour of some hood so you can speak to some locals. And also the last street you walked in this episode is called Rammelsväg in Rosengård, exactly that street is notorious and maybe one of the most dangerous streets in Sweden.
Whether you accept or not but Sweden is gone
@@albintorso6107 I'm writing this from Malmö, Sweden and I can tell you that Sweden is indeed still here.
@@albintorso6107 As someone who lives in Sweden, Sweden is definitely still on the map.
Its very important to know that this is a extremly small part of sweden, its a very big country. I live in northern sweden and its realy beutifull, you should come for a ski trip some time 😃. In winter you never see the sun and in the summer the sun is up the entire day. Where you were in this video its very little snow but where i live (in the middle of sweden) its still a meter of snow and its april in a few days, i love the snow extremly much, its extremly fun to ride snowmobiles or go skiing. Great video!
Liked and subscribed only because of that absolute baller moment at the end :D
Awesome vid mate,keep up the great work🙌🏼💫
Little bit of info,about 88.5% of people who stay in Rosengard are first and second generation immigrants from Syria,Turkey,Somalia and the former Yugoslavia
As a former prisoner in Glasgows Barlinnie (Scotland) I can relate to your motives of just getting out their seeing the world, making the most of your freedom, much love bro, your showing me places and countries I'd never get to see otherwise, peace
Shut up ya dick
Sydney also has driverless metros now. The line from Tallawong to Chatswood is driverless and it's being extended under the CBD to reach Sydenham this year. Next year, it'll take over the line from there to Bankstown.
I am born and raised in Malmö and have lived in Rosengård a big portion of my life. Media has inaccurately portrayed Rosengård as a dangerous area for many years. Rosengård is the home of many families and children who have nothing to do with crime or a ghetto lifestyle. The amount of criminals is extremely low and is not even noticable today. The buildings are not bad at all with the exception of the last area you showed, which is unfortunately abandoned by Swedish authority. It is a very beautiful place and especially during the summer. I feel safer in Rosengård than any other area in Malmö.
I'm not denying the fact that crime historically has been a problem in Rosengård. But it is no longer that big of a problem due to many reasons, such as most of the criminals being murdered, sentenced to jail or having fled abroad. The criminals were also an extreme minority compared to the rest of the population who were and still are sincere and decent citizens and contributors to society like anyone else.
Crime in Sweden today is a much bigger problem in Stockholm for example. You should probably do some more research before visiting these areas and interview people who have lived here and understand this society.
This is definitely not the worst looking apartment buildings. It's normal for old apartment buildings to be looking like that. (I'm from EU) I have no idea how he knows it's all public housing (🤦🏻♀️) but that's just how it is in most of the parts in Europe 🤷🏻♀️. We just have more apartments then houses lol doesn't mean it's straight up public housing.
I’m from Malmö born and raised and I can definitely tell you I’ve been to worse neighborhoods than rosengård here in Malmö

I came across this video by luck.... Wasn't sure what to really expect but an interesting piece of filming and I can honestly say I didn't expect to see this part of Sweden, I'm from the UK and met many Swedish people and seen pictures of their Homes nice big houses clean streets ect. I was raised in the south London council neighbourhood through the late 70s into the mid 90s, mostly gangs and run down building like it had been through wars. Watching this video thinking yeah not a pleasant location but looked much better then what I grew up around! Looks clean, open and at least got parks for kids.
The looks isn’t the bad about this area. There are much worse looking neighborhoods in Sweden. This neighborhood isn’t notorious for its looks though but for its absurdly high murder rate
Growing up in Dublin West, Ireland, when I moved to Sweden and walked through these "rough" areas, there's no comparison, well looked after, nice areas, and there's nothing wrong with those apartments, I'd say they're dry, well heated and well insulated. No burnt out cars, boarded up houses, no broken glass everywhere. There might be gun crime in Rosengård, but it's all gang on gang. Dublin it's more likely to be knife or hammer crime. There are parts I'd Dublin he'd likely not get out in one piece. I've never felt unsafe walking around anywhere in Malmö.
He's a sensationalist grifter.
@FattasMotorhuv Yeah, but his reaction to the area is ludicrous. Literally everything is wrong, and reminds him of slums and prisons. Sure, it's depressing, but come on. Numbers on the buildings? Locked entrances with weather sheltering? He's really scraping the barrel for sensationalism.
Sure the area isn't new and it shows, but bad quality? No.
It's clean, virtually no graffiti or boarded up windows, no burning trash or cars, no makeshift hobo camps, no [any indication of slum]. But he acts like it's a post apocalyptic nightmare.
The only thing that would remind you of criminality there would be him...
@@BroNumsi I agree, everything looked pretty normal for a Swedish suburb.
bro i wanna do what ur doing right now for living... ur so much like me. i wanna feel free like you brotha! i love your content keep it up g never stop grinding.
Nice video! Love from Denmark 💪
Rosengård has had a bad reputation since the 90's, and it's undeserved AF at this point. People just regurgitate that it's "most dangerous". There are argumentatively worse suburbs in Malmö (none are very bad though), and Stockholm certainly has worse suburbs.
I'm a 30 something native white guy who lived in Rosengård for four years close to the second last area you visited (my house was student apartments in way better shape, but neighboring to some really run down buildings), and I rarely had any issues (I think a guy was waiting to rob me once, and that's it). I very often walked around at nighttime. Honestly, the guys that do cause trouble mostly fuck with each other, rob teens, sell drugs, set cars on fire, and
The second last part you visited is the famous part because the landlords are assholes so the buildings have been allowed to degrade, and it's been talked a lot about how there's cockroaches (which is rare in Sweden).
The "shopping mall" had more traditional shops back in the days but all Swedes moved away and so the shops turned to types that cater to the people who live in Rosengård (no Swedes would go there to shop so there's no point in having typical shops there). If you think that represents shopping malls in Sweden then you are quite mistaken, we have a lot of normal shopping malls (for example, the biggest one in Hyllie in Malmö right where you switched trains).
For the buildings - that's just the standard designs of the housing projects in the 70's. All of Sweden look like that to a degree. The entrances are just basic entrances that of course are locked (it's not like there's double doors for security). The buildings look hella depressing though.
And the helicopters fly around constantly these days, tracking cars/criminals and, when there's a football game, hooligans.
We don't get used to the short days in Scandinavia either, we just call it "winter depression". It's a pretty common thing most people experience it
You have to visit Stockholm brother! In rinkeby and norsborg you will feel another type of sketchy places. There is where everything happens🙌🏼
Get it right: entry doors to apartment complexes are always locked in Sweden (like in Sydney when I lived there). What is the big deal?
Those apartments and gardens looks well maintained to me, even compared to other western city suburbs (not to mention Eastern European blocks).
I grew up in 90s in a commie block in Kyiv, Ukraine, in one of the hoods where people didn't want to stroll. The fact that they don't have metal bars on windows and bicycles are just standing outside means it's really not so bad
And they were your own people and nation, not immigrants. But did they have any financial aid from the state, except a job, an workplace, didn't they have to pay for the rent and everything else?
well i think i hav goten my bike stolen 1milj time in Malmö but the town is still the best in sweden
@@eedragonr they probably owned the property but because those were the 90s most of them lacked jobs

3:50 The Hills district in Sydney now has a metro line with a trainless driver from Chatswood to Tallawong.
Goto Stockholms northern suburbs like, Rinkeby, Husby and Tensta.
Take the Metro from Stockholm city to the last station on the blue line basically.
these buildings are from the "million program". which was an effort in the 1960s-70s to build a million apartments over the course of a decade. Most are pretty rundown by now, with some renovations done by individual owners. The majority of them are around Malmö and Stockholm
if you're still in sweden head to stockholm and walk through fittja or tensta both places are in very rough shape and are both classed as "very vulnerable areas" just like rosengård
I’m sorry rough shape? Just go over the sea to Baltic’s and check out an average building there.
@@Steven-zm4ze ive been to croatia and yes they look worse but its because they are old buildings. all of these apartment buildings are built in 1970-1980

Respect to you for visiting so many cities around the globe! You should REALLY go to Stockholm, specially the red & blue line. You have hoods like;
Rinkeby • Tensta • Husby • Akalla • Alby • Bredäng • Vårby Gård • Norsborg • Skärholmen

I literally just missed ya. I live in Malmö and come from Dallas, Texas and just came back from visiting family stateside. I’ll give you that the buildings are quite ugly. However, it’s nothing as bad as where I come from in Texas. Compared to some hoods in Texas, these parts are paradise. Cool seeing your video and perspective.

Know what I’m waitin for? Spanian’s Indian Adventure. goin thru the slums or just generally exploring the good and bad; the way you express yourself is just so entertaining
Yeah if you want to see poverty, India has it in spades. I’m surprised he hasn’t been yet, that would be a killer episode.
im from india. the slums are terrible. nothing more to say. theyre just terrible. ive seen youtubers try and go into detail about it but it doesn't sit right because the fact is theyre slums. If you want to talk about the real history of india, we could talk about the aryan invasions, european invasions, mughal imvasions, different states, languages, festivals and foods of india, etc
I think spanian’s thought about it. And although he’s a big man and can handle himself, I think an Indian slum would be a recipe for disaster. And probably smell like absolute shit too!
No need, just go to Luton or Leicester in England.
You'd think you're in Mumbai.
Cool to see you at Rosengård! if you want a bigger hood with more different housings go to Rinkeby/Tensta outside Stockholm and at Rinkeby Torg there is always some action especially if you come with a camera 🥳
Thank you for covering the "Swedish situation"
Love your show, and hope you got to see something better then the worst in Sweden!
My dad grew up here in the 70s. He learned Swedish in the courtyards since the language at home was Croatian. Fun fact. My dad grew up in the same block as Zlatan but he lived there before him.
You should visit some hoods in the UK, perhaps in Glasgow or London. That would be crazy.

Used to live where your back is facing when you enter the car park to Rosengård Centrum. It wasn’t until recently that they decided to fence it off due to the amount of “trespassers” that came by and didn’t belong to that neighborhood, causing trouble so certain tenants such as HSB had them raised and added a gate with an intercom. It used to be a really nice neighborhood, and that one is by far one of the better areas to live in today.
