Great tour Mr. Hopper! I've been there long time ago in 2011, lovely city. I miss California and I hope to visit again in the future. Cheers from Portugal!

There's not many people in DTSJ on a Saturday afternoon because they usually drift to Santana Row/Valley Fair area but it does get lit at night time. No retail in DTSJ really hurts
Plus all the crazy drug addicts and bums in downtown make people not want to go there. Santana row and the whole neighborhood around it is more strict on letting crazy people get out of control

@ it’s actually pretty lit on Friday and Saturday in downtown. Santana Row/Valley Fair is lit often too and is the best mall in California. But overall, San Jose is a suburban town. It was not destined for San Jose to go this popular until the 1980s tbh and it was already built out as a suburban area to SF. But I agree, I wish it it had tall buildings with a lot of tech but the food here is one of the BEST in America
@gillynova Yeah - I mean even without tall buildings - you could have made it a modern urban city like Washington DC or Boston which are not known for tall buildings - but San Jose doesn't even have a proper Metro. San Francisco itself is also a small city - New York used to very small - then they added Queens and Brooklyn and made it a mega city and also created the greatest subway system in the world - San Francisco went with small vision, and now techs are moving to Austin and Dallas for a reason. America has stopped building mega cities after NYC Chicago and LA. It's a shame.
my home I miss I grew up there I was so much much .. beautiful back then . because it was better back then.. more orchards and people were less and it was so mu6 nicer...🙂❤
San Jose had a very vibrant downtown in the 1950's when I was a young boy growing up there but it started going downhill in the 1960's just like so many other cities in the U.S. at that time. Regional shopping malls like Valley Fair killed downtown retail and even the city government and newspaper abandoned the center city. The city physically grew rapidly in all directions in pure suburban style throughout the latter 20th century so that population and area wise it is now larger than San Francisco but with little of that city's urbanity. It is more like the San Fernando Valley in sprawl and scale. But It is nice to notice that San Jose has made great strides of late and as noted is blessed with great weather and so much potential. The Google project could be a game changer with proposed 20,000 new people as is the BART extension due in the next 10 years hopefully. What it really needs now are more people living downtown. It is the one large city of Silicon Valley with all thsr money one would hope it could benefit. I lived in a grand old Queen Anne Victorian on S. 3rd Street (which is still there) during the 1980's. The shock is that the city is actually a very old and historic one founded by the Spanish in 1777 and along with LA was started as a pueblo not a mission or presidio like the other major cities. Sadly out of originally having 144 adobes only 1 remains which you showed in San Pedro Square. I have retired to Palm Springs now but it was fun seeing all the recent changes. Maybe not in my lifetime but i sure hope the city is able to reach its potential some day. Thanks so much for the tour of a site not as exotic as so many other of your vlogs.
"San Jose had a very vibrant downtown in the 1950's when I was a young boy growing up there but it started going downhill in the 1960's just like so many other cities in the U.S. at that time. " Your parents probably said that about the 30s....every generation dislikes the previous and next generations, that's the circle of life, man. Downtown San Jose is pretty cool, I lived there for almost two years. Then I had to move back to the suburb I came from. Hope to move back to downtown someday. :)
@@stuzworldz ".saying what one parents said id childish bullshit dude." It's true. That's the circle of life. Your kids will say you had it easy and didn't do enough also.
Hi Jeff, I really enjoyed your video, My Sister lives is Cupertino ("koo-pr-tee-now"), I live in Mountain View. Head over to Sonoma/Napa, beautiful wine country. You are in CA. and I just got back from Arizona.
"Small Downtown for a big city" & continues to talk down on San Jose for the entire video...doesn't realize that he only toured like 4 streets of a downtown that spans from Guadalupe River Park to the Children's Discovery Museum... But, yes. With everything happening in the world & San Jose being impossibly expensive to live in, the majority of its citizens are working in the middle of the day. Even a Saturday.
Can you please do a video of the New Almaden area of San Jose? Especially, the historic area of New Almaden down Almaden Road... where Casa Grande, the New Almaden Cemetery, La Fore, and Quicksilver Park are located.
@@chasingsunsets87 I think the New Almaden area is safe from Big Tech. At least, it remains one the few sacred areas that the technocracy hasn't ruined.
I was just there last week for a concert at the SAP Center. The way I would describe SJ is a Bay Area much nicer version of Sacramento, and I was traveling from Sacramento. Both cities I like to describe as being Suburban Cities. I stayed at the Hotel DeAnza. It was okay, but not much to look at. The cafe area was closed, I don't know if it was due to remodeling or for Covid. The downtown area was nice, but like Sac, I noticed they both have major homeless issues. This guy got mad because I didn't have change. I was wearing dress shoes and told "you don't have change, but you got money for shoes?". It was kind of sketchy at night walking from the Amtrak to the hotel at night. The following night was the concert so I felt safer walking through that same are because there were a lot more people. I also checked out the Winchester house and the Santana Row area right across which was so nice. Did some shopping there. Loved the H&M store and the Amazon books store. I also went to the mall nearby. It reminded so much of the Arden Mall in Sac from afar just from the layout, but I felt out of place from the stores going inside that mostly catered to people with a lot of $$$$$. SJ is nice for a day trip. Lots of shopping. SAP is nice, kind of getting old and the Santana Row Shopping area is really nice.
Ever since me and my family left San Jose just became more dangerous. I lived in Almaden house apartments in Riconnada drive. San Jose is my hometown and California 's Great America was the best, sad to hear the news on it closing.
@@chasingsunsets87For being the innovation capital of the US and the world, the city looks very very rural. I am sorry America, learn something from Shenzen, China. The city doesn't even have a proper metro system - what a shame.
My youngest sister lives in San Jose. Probably just for a few years. Her husband got a job offer that he couldn't refuse. I flew up there in February 2020 to see her. I recognize where you are filming.
"The old building" is called a church, a cathedral to be exact. San Jose's downtown is dead during the weekdays. Just a lot of construction and the people who do go downtown usually have to for court or something to do with the government. I remember when a lot of the city was orchards. Fruit trees everywhere and a much calmer, suburban and even rural vibe. It's great to see how it's developed over the years. Now it's time to leave it to the young and well off.
i’m from san jose and shocked you only walked by two homeless people haha. you also missed cesar chavez plaza and south first! still, great video of my city!

San Jose is widely dispersed and the majority of people live in outside of downtown and don't really go there. The City has spent significant money to revitalize downtown, but since very few people live in downtown it didn't take. With Google campus being built by the shark tank more high rise apartments are slated to come online soon so if you come back in 5 years it will look completely different. Check out the small towns adjacent like Campbell and Los Gatos.
I like your video Jeffrey , I have been in Sanjose many times, but my family never brings me to visit downtown. I love you do the video at day times , so I can see the views better than night. Thanks Jeff . Love to see more videos from you ..
Visited San Jose Ca on a road trip from Seattle, was mostly on east side San Jose most of trip up to Milpitas area some spots were nice and other spots not so nice but still enjoyed visiting San Jose
Been trying to move out for the past 3 years ..... waiting for a correct job profile to transfer out after spending 3 decades in the Bay Area. Once I move out, I hope i never ever visit again !! Phoenix, Dallas, Tampa ..... here i come
@@mokokoco4720 Awesome ..10 times better infrastructure at 1/3 the cost with really good ppl. Glad to be out from 3rd world $hithole ... Fresno, Oakland, Berkeley, Skid Row LA and otherwise, SF ....
This place comes to life at night. I remember when I was little about 5 years old anytime we would pass that area I always wondered how those business made their money if they are never full. Then as an adult I saw those business at night and whole different story. It's a young people city and it's also a new people city because a lot of natives got priced out.
@@Standoffmuffin Yup 😕. I’ve seen the change and I don’t like it. I feel like it could be much nicer by now. They need to add more shopping/retail and other attractions like other cities have to make people want to go and walk around there. All they have is a bunch of new small restaurants/ bars, comedy club and that’s it. At least in my day we also had the clubs 😂
The big bux businesses (Intel, AMD, Google, Apple, etc.) aren’t in San Jose. They’re up the peninsula in Sunnyvale, Cupertino, Mountain View and Palo Alto. San Jose is the bedroom suburb of Silicon Valley. The tail that pretends it can wag the dog.
Try Mountain View's Castro Street, or Palo Alto's University Ave or Stanford Shopping Center. The "downtowns" here are not concentrated in one city but in each city along Caltrain.
Born and raised in San Jose and I really miss the “old” San Jose when I was growing up. I haven’t been downtown in years because of the traffic and parking nightmare. Compared to other cities, I don’t think our downtown has much to offer 🤷🏻♀️. I think downtown San Diego is much nicer. When I visited San Diego in 2019, it really reminded me of how the old downtown San Jose used to be.
Saturday in the 80s was booming with people & there wasn’t so much gentrification.💯 most the people that live here on the NORTHSIDE are from some other place if not COUNTRY💯
Nice walkthrough I grew up in California I am so glad I moved out from that state way to expensive to many homeless problem down town San Jose don't know how some people can keep a business going I have noticed more have gone out of business plus California is way to much liberal democrat for me glad I moved out.
Shopping near the trillion dollar company Apple would be on Stevens Creek West of Wolfe and, well, Cupertino Village you've really got to see that one!
No one can afford to live in San Jose anymore. Those driving around maybe commuting for work from out of town. They wouldn't have a reason to just walk around. Maybe a lunch break from buildings nearby, but regular families can't afford to live nearby so you won't see locals just hanging around, just enjoying a walk. The Corportations are turning it into a expensive Ghost Town. And those who can't afford a car to come into San Jose can't afford to live Downtown so you won't see tons of people using Lightrail anymore. Unused tracks...
