This video is what I was looking for. Excellent work. Knowing the worst areas helps me tremendously in my search for a house in Windsor. I am definitely subscribed. Thanks a lot!
Awesome B Roll editing work. True about Sandwichtown. Hoping that the improvement fund steps up the Sandwich st. appeal in the next year.
Thanks for all the information
My family moved from Windsor back in the early 70's. It was a beautiful little city back then. I can remember Fast Eddie's Pinball, The N&D Supermarket, The Ponderosa, Pop Shoppe and Burger King....Red Barn, H.Salt Fish & Chips and TBQ's and The Other Place restaurants...Devonshire Mall, The Palace movie theatre downtown...It was quite idyllic back then.
Lol, it was a great town back then. I didn't think anyone would remember the N & D besides me, though.
Love your honesty
Thank you, Ryan, for this video, which I consider one of the best; very honest and helpful.
Your welcome!
After dark I have walked back downtown along Sandwich street and I was always totally safe.
Glad you felt safe. I can tell you from living most of my life in WIndsor that for the most part and compared to other places I have lived, this city compares well.
Good job. Very accurate and fair. I lived in the villages as a teenager. It was rough. My mother sold because if the electricity bill in the winters.
Didn’t they install Mitsubishi heaters to fix that problem?
Being someone who lives in south Cameron area, everything you are saying about Windsor is spot on
Thanks Pro Mountain Biker - P.S. where do you mountain bike around here? Lol
@@ryancrits8180 mainly at black oak and malden
Thank you for sharing this video. I hope you are still honest until now 😊.
I came there and hung out a few times from Detroit and I’m from Philly, to me it was so much more tranquility. I mean I went out and a fire truck was out and that was like a big thing. I went to I believe 2 hoods and went to a deli walking by myself. However I saw some unsavories in the parking lot by Capris Pizza unfortunately this stuff was just normal to me living in the US so I just ignored it.
World class fireworks every year - late June. Great video. Thank you for posting. Might be moving back to Windsor in the next three years. Previously lived in South Windsor. Don’t have a real estate agent yet and are waiting closer to the time.
Grew up in Windsor, left in 2003 for BC. Same neighborhoods all got the same rep 20 years later. The villages of riverside were called Fort Apache back in the 80,s Westside, has always had a reputation. East of downtown west of downtown rough reputation too. Lived on elm and Wyandotte in 1986, had glue sniffers hanging around the front store daily. All in all have good memories of Windsor lots of good blue collar people that will give you the shirt of their back 💙 😉
I liked it when the guy was twiddling the bat
i was thinking about getting a aparntment in sandwhich for the first time ever but after seeing this ill keep looking :O
Assumption and Tuscarora are hell too
Great video
I was born and raised in Windsor. I left in my early 20's to the States, and I am so glad. It's heartbreaking to see the decline, the poverty, addiction and death due to overdose. I can't even bring myself to spend more than a day there anymore. 😢
Excited for pride in Windsor ❤
Ryan, your talks on this website are invaluable to many people. Thank you for that.
You say you wonder why the west end became such a poor area to live in. Well, as a lifetime resident in her 70's in Windsor and Essex County, i have a couple of ideas why.
One is kind of silly. In the past, people who got rich or very well off kept moving east and more east of Oullette because they could go to work in the morning without the sun blinding them on the way and they could drive home with the sun at their backs.
And even more recent, in the 80's that sewage treatment plant that promised no smells or wafts of crap would envelope the area because it would be state of the art, blah, blah, blah. Well, they let the plant become over used by letting too many residents and businesses plug into it. It's horrible on certain days, when the wind is just right.
You are doing a good service and hope you can be truly successful, thank you again.
Grew up in the Villages back in the early 80s. It use to be a decent place to live. We got out in '87 when things were starting to get rough and moved to Forest Glade.
I feel like it’s coming around a bit
Stay away from Glengarry
I've lived in Glengarry for 5 years and I've very rarely if ever had issues, even late at night.
The comment about feeling like your bike isn’t safe in your driveway is very accurate. My roommate left their bike in our FENCED IN backyard in Pelissier for less than an hour and it was gone. 😂
Great video- love the visuals of the city!
Thank you very much!
You should interview people like me that have lived in windsor there whole life. I can really give you the dirt . I grew up in Ford city and now live in glengarry. I have lots of footage of shit that happens here
Freakenstein so you're basically saying you're a rat and willing to give up the bird videos you've made for what? To be a whistle blower? You're a straight ATM
@Rob Jones I'm talking about the people that run housing and how they treat us like we are all Scum.and do nothing for us
My bad bro I didn't mean it like that forgive me.. I dont deal well with them ppl either I don't even live there, they just don't want me in their buildings
Might have to give you a call soon. Relocating back after maybe 9 years
I appreciate your honesty, you are a great person. Thank you 😊.
I appreciate that!
You should watch Dumpsta Love on you tube , Living all over Windsor from Victoria to Tecumseh we have a home on Lawrence know, I miss living down town.
i have lived on albert road near Tecumseh for 20 years and have never seen homeless people drug addicts or prostitutes and people keep there probertites nice
Thats good. I find it's rough closer to wyandotte street. North of Seminole
I lived on McKay avenue for like 7 year's about 5-6 year's ago, definitely not a good spot when I lived there
When the Devonshire Mall opened, Ouellette Avenue died, no more lovely stores like Smiths or Bartlett, McDonald and Gow or Birks, 'Canada's Gifthouse'. I don't visit anymore because the place depresses me. There are cities within cities and a lack of Canadian culture (YES, we have one!). I was raised on California Avenue and attended Forster. The streets were beautiful and the people nice and law abiding. What happened????? Best not to answer
Do you have rent to own homes?
There is a biker club house in Ford city 😂 up and coming lol
Gone for along time now.
Which areas do you recommend for international students to live?
East of the bridge. Lots of rentals near the uni on both sides of the bridge but west of the bridge is rougher
Mann even tho sandwich town is so runup by crime I still love it that's the hood🙏
is it really that bad?
@@allanwatts8361 Anywhere that there are some people who want to pretend that violence and homelessness frostbite causes the victims to float off to a better place, its bad.
@@allanwatts8361 No,it is as safe as you make it...Dont make unwise decisions.i wouldnt go walking alone or somehow impaired(using a cane or a crutch) anywhere-criminals are opportunistic and always on the hunt.I lived in Devonshire heights and saw youth gangs,grow houses and midnight bodyshops working on stunt driving damaged cars .
Im planning to move to Windsor next year. Any advice?
My advice is watch every one of Ryan's videos! It helped me. I moved here 6 months ago.
so you probably here already but just mind your buisness and have common sense(dont leave your shit unlocked if you got something valuable dont leave it out) and if you ever unemployed move or the city gonna fuck you over(AND AVOID INDIAN LANDLORDS I KNOW THAS RACIST OR WHATEVER EVERY INDIAN LANDLORD I HAD FUCKED US OVER bro if you seen the house we living in like inside, and the shit our landlord doing to us its crazy)
Great video and well researched Ryan. I lived in the WIndsor/Essex County area since 1965 (just a youngster) and moved out in 2013 to Cambridge Ontario (family reasons), the city I was born in. What a change as they too have their homeless, druggies and so forth as many cities have their issues. My thoughts are to move back to Windsor as that place is more like "home" to me and I know or have known people in every area you mentioned. My previous home was on Westminster Blvd, loved it there. I was always cautioned by friends to stay east of Walker Road, which I agree. When the time comes to have a Realtor, I would contact you as you seem someone I can trust.
I look forward to your call one day!
I purchased a property for a family residence, around Janette and Clinton St. I'd love to know your thoughts.
middle of the road area. good, affordable area
Hi..I recently moved to Windsor with my family..March 23..
I can relate to...
Thanks for being honest and simple..

This is a good sign for windsor.
Fireworks late June not July
There is not any place in Windsor I would not walk down and feel safe .
Much of the housing in the bridge area is occupied by University students .
Trudeau would rather give money to immigrants than to Canadians, one family has been in Windsor for 15 years get 4 checks a month for mother, father, son, daughter with free medical while Canadian's live on the street .
Immigrants been living there for 15 years?! When do immigrants get to be called Canadians? 25 years? 50 years?
@@harmonyvalley6588 Some choose to reside here but do not seek citizenship.
How is Mill Street
Hi Geoffrey. Mill street isn’t the greatest area. I would stay south of prince street if your looking to live in sandwich. As long as budget allows anyway.
Mill has Good restaurants though!
Thanks, Ryan I was looking more as an investment. I do remember you talking about the new restrictions on rooming houses in the city of Windsor. Is Day Care a good option in this area?
Downtown is way worse than Sandwich Town
I live in the villages lmao
Same here, love it. Mostly becauses we r out of condo in Toronto now lol most neighbors are nice, so sad it got a bad wrap.
So, tell me: is it true that Ford City is up and coming?
Lol
I have a buddy who lives on Albert near riverside. Not a great neighborhood. Helped him renovate his bathroom a couple years ago and one guy kept driving back and forth waiting for us to go inside so he could steal material we were cutting outside.
Agree about the Villages, my brother bought there when it was started in the 70s but yea it's pretty run down
Are there any English speakers in Canada, every time I search for Canadian videos, it only shows immigrants
Well I’m English
windsor flooded with immigrants right now but most of them speak english
Hello Ryan. My name is Serge. I'm a first home buyer. I found your perfect UA-cam video related to Windsor. Im going to buy a home on capitol street, is it a good area for rising children on Your opinion, please?
Stay away from Roseville gardens I live there that’s my block
Pls tell me about it. Thanks!
Hamilton is crack.... Windsor london meth... weird how it works
Muchos latinos lo escuchamos
Pero habla muy rapido
I lived in all these areas😂
Which was your favourite
@@ryancrits8180 The villages due to the Ganatchio trails😊
If sandwich Town has this historical story, then the memories of violence is still in the ether
You could make a video with places in Windsor based on walkability.
Great idea!
This clown cannot walk in my hood again...
Sandwich looks like cabbage town to me feels a little like it too. Old run down etc. But no where near as rough.i mean they are one ways to prevent hooker trolling in cabbage. Now a house is 2 million plus. Trendy right?? Not sure why he is so concerned about homeless people, kinda a fact of life. Poor people it sucks out there.
I do reckon this citys in the rebound, gonna come quick.
Anyway my two cents, windsor is nice as far as im concerned perhaps I've seen too much.
I am looking to move to Windsor with my wife and we plan to invest there. the goal is to start with one cash flowing property and gradually move on to the next one.
We heard student rentals is the best deal out there and sandwich town kind of comes near university.
if we were your clients, what would you tell us?
Shoot me a text and we can schedule a call - 519 551 4058
Is there any upper coming for 200k ready to move in let me know.
Marrying into Windsor Walkerville Mp Mark R MacGuigan`s family seeing politics as a 60`s scoop native he was such a world leader he wanted me to name my son after him already having a son named after him I chose Tecumseh working with Tecumseh`s Mayor in 94 helping save the towns name by his grandfathers last name .
Cobourg ontario is pretty loitered with crystal meth as it's cheaper than cocaine same with the fentanyl it's killing a lot of people these days...I blame the pharmaceutical industry in the area
What is a good church? Its not like homelessness frostbite or violence really actually produces afterlives, even if disingenuous type people want to smilingly lie to you.
Every single city has riff raffs, drug addicts etc. This presentation really rubs me the wrong way, and I really don't like Windsor, but for other reasons. Smh
There are plenty of videos on this channel going over the positive things as well. The purpose of this channel is the educate people on the city. They deserve to know what neighbourhoods to live in and which to avoid
Ryan, if you go to Toronto, Brampton, Durham Region the crime level is terrifying, homelessness is rampant...I moved from one of those cities to Windsor...with my 3 boys. Our major beefs with Windsor after getting here are:
* We feel as though we have moved 4 and half hours from civilization.
* There are no ski hills in windsor..my boys love to ski.( These are the things we didn't think about before buying here)
* The city seems "dead" to us as it lacks entertainment and is miles away from all major attractions. Very boring.
* The people are not friendly which does not make for good neighbours.
* The so called highway is a 2 lane road with some of the worst drivers I have ever seen......
I could go on and on , but all I'm saying is the way in which you presented the information was a bit off.
@@trishjackson6679 Torontonian here. The crime truly is not that bad. Been in and around Toronto the majority of my 28 years, and have ZERO issues with crime here in Toronto.
SURE, it happens, but not nearly as bad as people like to point out. When you have 6-7 million in the GTA, you're going to have crime, but the reality is that the crime is very targeted; having lived actually in the city on and off for different reasons for 4-5 years, I can tell you the crime is non-existent in many places.
@@trishjackson6679 - Were you able to do any research on the area before you moved down here? I ask because Windsor and Essex-County is one of the flatest areas geographically speaking in all of Ontario. If you Googled "ski resorts in southern Ontario" you'd see that the area has none because of its geography and also because of its climate. Windsor is the hottest city in all of Canada because of its extreme southern vantage and although winters can be quite cold, they can also be quite mild and we certainly get nowhere near the snowfall that the rest of the province gets.
As for being "4 and a half hours from civilization" I think that's a big exaggeration. The closest large city from Windsor in Ontario is London which is just under 2hrs away and Toronto is 3hrs and 40min away. That's hardly "4 and a half hours from civilization" especially when you factor in Windsor's close proximity to Detroit, which is the second largest city in the American midwest. Being a border city with Detroit is one of Windsor's greatest assets. You can find all the civilization you could ever ask for in Detroit and it's all just a short drive across the river from Windsor. Major league sports, rock concerts, professional Broadway theatre productions etc., all of it extremely easy to access when you live in Windsor.
As for "people not being friendly", that is entirely subjective on your part. I have lived in different parts of Windsor over the last 20 years and have always been on great terms with my neighbours. That being said I do understand that if you moved down here and didn't already have family and friends in the area then meeting new people can be hard. However that would be the case for anyone who moves to a new city or town where they don't know anybody else. If you're a religious person you can always meet new people through your church, synagogue, temple or mosque. You can also volunteer for a charity and meet new people there. Even something as simple as joining a local bowling, card or games league can introduce you to new people. There are friendly people around you everywhere and a stranger is just a person you haven't met yet.
I do 100% agree with you on Windsor drivers. Windsor does indeed have some of the *worst drivers* I've ever seen in either Canada or the US. It's ridiculous and also extremely stressful, especially during rush hour.
All in all I'm sorry that Windsor hasn't quite met with your expectations and I do hope the city grows on you and gets better for you the longer you live here. 🙂
@@trishjackson6679 Detroit is right across the river, no entertainment? So you thinking about moving back to terrifying crime and rampant homelessness in the GTA?
