Very familiar. I don’t think people online really believe me when I tell them major portions of my hometown look like someplace out of the third world-some sort of Haitian slum-but there you have it. And a lot of it’s racism. Most. It goes back more than 60 years, back in the 1950’s when local white and Jewish slum lords had the city laws changed so they (the slum lords) wouldn’t have to do the same maintenance on their properties that everyone in the county did on theirs. The result is you had an entire generation of Baltimore City black youth poisoned with lead and other toxic materials, who then sired still another generation. “Harry Weinberg”. Guy was a huge Jewish slumlord in 1950’s-became a billionaire on slum properties in Maryland, Pennsylvania and Texas. Now, you go anywhere in b-more and you see these signs “Donated by the Harry and Janet Weinberg Trust”-well, yeah, once you financially eviscerate a city, make it dependent on charity, then have your estate make a bunch of charitable contributions-then you look like the hero you’re simply not. You go down to where the old Memorial Stadium used to be-the city couldn’t afford to keep it around-and you see “The Harry and Janet Weinberg Family YMCA”-funny, how the only person who can afford to set-up a Young Men’s Christian Association gymnasium in b-more is one of the Jewish slumlords who who relieved an entire local generation of its future. This segues right into the heroin boom of the late 1960’s-a clandestine money source for the CIA performing their covert ops that aren’t covered by congressional approval. Basically, the reason for the heroin arriving here is due to the land-routes of interstate transportation: by way of I-70 and I-81, not to mention rail routes, anything arriving at Baltimore’s port can be shipped farther through America than any other east coast port. That’s both legal goods as well as illegal merchandise (such as opium). So, by the early 1980s you have about 2 generations of brain-damaged Baltimore black males who know how to do nothing but peddle dope, with no landlords doing repairs and nobody wanting to move into those areas. And that’s not the whole city, but it’s still a lot-and you see that in this vid. See the results. Block after block after block-like staring out at 1990’s Sarajevo-or 1980’s Beirut. As far as what can be done now, what needs to be done is people have to unify locally for a constructive goal, a constructive ideal. Start working on local trade-keeping things in the community. Community policing, community healthcare-alternative healthcare. Urban gardening. Urban water treatment-house to house, if need be. And everybody educates everybody else. Be careful who you trust outside the community, what you chose in the way of “diversions”-which cultural expressions are wholesome, and which aren’t. Trust independent cultural expressions over anything corporate. Be aware of the simple truth, “the less welfare you can take from the government, the better”-you want people helping you live a dignified modern life, not throwing you crumbs. And-if it matters-I’m white. I’m just saying these things because I’m sick of the lies and outright half-truths older members of my own race keep telling the younger generation. You have racists who post pictures of American urban blight all over the internet and say, “Look at what the Negroes do when they move into an area!”-yet these same “pundits” act like heroin just comes into our country by accident, or that slumlords wish the people well-or that a disenfranchised segment of the population, stigmatized by their skin, had any real control over their collective destiny in the 1950’s. So…you got a brain. Use it. Make your community smarter, then make the world smarter. That’s how life gets made better for all concerned.
Your frankness is refreshing, however, that level of urban blight and decay is hard to overcome without proper resources. Resources not available to these communities. The "Harry Weinbergs" of this country are too powerful, influential and amoral. Saw the same thing happen in my old nabe in Brooklyn in the 70s, 80s and 90s making it ripe for "gentrification." These communities are strategically flooded with brain-dulling drugs to inhibit people from thriving. Much of the population at large prefer to believe and perpetuate the propaganda and rhetoric about "those people." The systemic lies are far too ingrained. Thanks for your comment.
MrJesusweeps And I take it you get some sort of award for getting online, making accusations against what other people report on their hometown; you get this award without backing your statements up, without providing any contrary evidence--just flat-out empty statements. And where'd you get the 110% figure? You some sort of actuary? Or just another a-hole with a computer keypad?
Thank you for this. My father in law gave me a tour like this when I first visited. I wanted to see where the real people lived. He wasn't afraid to show me.
I grew up in Baltimore and lived there the first 35 years of my life. We were what I would call very low middle class, not quite poor, but surely not well off. My dad worked at the steel mill and ran a garage. Mom took care of the home until I was in high school. So sad to see what is happening to a once great city.
Karan Thakur Sorry I couldn't find a link either. There was definitely an instrumental video and a video with the regular song when I put this together a couple yrs ago
Baltimore is so damn beautiful in a tragic sort of way. All those boarded up row-houses and abandoned buildings mixed in with people living their lives and green grass growing. The relatively uniform building heights and odd lack of almost any graffiti also make it look unlike almost anywhere else. A million stories on those streets...
Man, what's wrong with this city? So many beautiful abandoned buildings, nice cars in the streets, people walking around like fools, it's sad that great communities have to experience that.
MistaCappuccino Man, am I worng when I say there are many nice cars there? lots of unemployed guys walking around like zombies, no prospect of life, even so, there are many wonders in this city, seeing it, I think that people like this place.
***** I guess, but it isn't anything special, because pretty much everyone can get a car in America, due to getting payed high welfare and food stamps. Doesn't seem like you live in America, since you don't know the standards.
Most of these neighborhoods have potential. This looks like paradise compared to some parts of Philly. I grew up just over the county line from NW Balto. It was a practical utopia 60s to well into 80s.
Great video! I'm blonde white female, and I live in Finland and often night-time walk around town with my dogs.I love it, and if I lived in a place like this, would not be going to out even during the day .. Fantastic that I can see the video through a lot of dangerous places ...
nickademo frost okay. How tv would you feel if someone said that about your city!?? Bitch listen. Im 14. Not once in my 14 years of living have I heard about a girl getting raped or even a boy. Yeah a murder or getting robbed is common but exactly why we are nicknamed Balconies Murderland. Get on my damn level and stay in Fucking finland
Greenmount/York Rd Fleet st North ave potee st I was a zoo keeper (police) in Baltimore till one of the animals attacked with a baseball bat. he took out my left shoulder & several ribs from behind. I staggered forward and spun around clearing my weapon and shooting him once in the stomack and once in the shoulder (i bet he didnt like his own medicine) as I think 5 units pulled up It was over a domestic violence call. Now I'm in Tampa Florida and when I get my health back I'm thinking about becoming a Hillsboro or Pasco county zookeeper. (sheriff deputy)

police blue light cameras. they're surveillance in "bad" or "high crime" areas of the city. they phased most of em out tho, now they're small white cameras.
Scaeffer would never have allowed this to happen. He was born and raised and lived until his death on the west side. Stay strong Baltimore, we got this. We can do it. In house.
Really like the Lana song. Good touch. This is so sad. You can tell Baltimore used to be an absolutely beautiful city. Hopefully resolution comes soon. 🙏🏽
Not only Baltimore but also Camden NJ, Chester PA, Bridgeport CT, Niagara Falls NY, Youngstown OH, Saginaw MI, Gary IN and many other older northern US cities suffering from severe urban distress.
I fucking love Baltimore... I think it's a beautiful city. Yes it can be rough in places, but every where has places like that ... I've lived in Baltimore and I just moved to Frederick... I want to go back. I love it there.
And the new homes that would replace them would be expensive to rent... The average townhome is $200,000+ in the Baltimore suburbs and new construction in Baltimore City isn't any cheaper...
@@dragonknightofamiraka3636 Getting government welfare goodies isn't oppression fool. Oppression is paying for people too goddamned lazy to work for their own upkeep and make their neighborhoods something to be proud of. Time to cut the welfare checks off for all the non disabled deadbeats.
Baltimore can go from really nice to really bad really fast. It's like a bipolar girlfriend. One minute she is all luv-e-dove and the next the crazy b*tch tried to kill me.
To think that the U.S. Govt. spends Trillions of Fake Dollars invading places all over the world on the basis of telling other peoples how they should live. I find the likes of this video very interesting geographically, as it shows that many parts of the west, including here in Britain are in fact - Shitholes.
Planners think up and try so many things....generally with marginal success. A city is sophisticated. There is no way to apply the scientific method to urban planning. The best we can do is to look for models then try those that seem applicable. In neighbourhood and community plans, it 's hard when the social fabric is not there. It's hard to establish without good schools, parks, and libraries to give people a solid foundation.
There is a solution. Sterylization. It was the law in 1932. After ww2 it was done with. These black families have kids so they could get on welfare. Free rent, money, housing. Meanwhile their kids run the streets. Either the mothers are sterylized or laws have to be changed.
i see lots of potential . Lots of 2 story buildings, plenty of spaces. But trash thrown on the streets cause the residents don't give a damn. those who make effort to work together can always make something nice of those buildings and those areas
__Most of these areas were at one time white working/middle class neighborhoods, clean, neat and generally safe. I was born and grew up in Baltimore in the 1950's. It's difficult to imagine but the beginning of white-flight began then when I was little. I can remember my folks talking about their friends and local business owners moving out and relocating to all points of the compass away from the inner city because of increasing crime and the ever lowering of property values. Later on out of the city altogether into the surrounding counties up to today where there are few places left near Baltimore that haven't been ruined. __I came back in 1991 after serving 22 active duty years in the military to find the state that I loved as a boy nowhere to be found. Crime, high taxes, over populated and a progressive taint that had removed any reason for my staying. I packed up my family and moved to Maine and have never regretted it. My kids got to see what America was like when it actually functioned. Good schools, fresh air, clean water, wildlife and the real selling point...safe. __Here are two federal government statistics that you may take anyway you like. However, together I believe that speak loudly about what is wrong with far too much of America today. 1. Maine has the lowest non-white population of any state in the nation, under 2%. 2. Maine has the lowest overall violent crime rate of any state in the nation. Take it for what it's worth but for me...enough said.
Ed Derbubba I'm sorry that you have to see what this generation as turned Baltimore into but atleast you have the good memories when it was good. I was born in 1992 so this is all i ever knew I was born in the city, Stricter Street I believe and my grandparents moved me out of there when I was 4 to a small town in Ocean City Maryland for a little while.
My wife's family was originally from Baltimore and they started moving out in the late 1970s and 1980s and they've seen what a trash pit that it truly has become over the years. It used to be a working class city and built by labor and working people and now its just a bunch of deadbeats sitting around waiting for their dope fix or the next government handout.
Michal Tocimák Food is good, but I never trusted anyone. People will stab you in the back, literally. I moved becuased I have a daughter and son that I didn't want to grow up like I did.
It doesn't sound very well.I came from eastern europe and I'm considering moving to the USA this or next year.I've got family living on the east coast so I think east coast would be the best for me.After researching I still can't decide what state/city I should move to.What would you recommend ?
Michal Tocimák East Coast? I would suggest Charottle NC, anywhere in Flordia, New York is nice but expensive. Anywhere but Baltimore MD, and Philadelphia Pennsylvania.
Jon Sonnenleiter Yep I've heard much about how is Philly bad I wouldn't move there.People living out of US think that USA is what we see in TV serials and movies but it seems that it isn't :-)
Is the majority of this video filmed in west Baltimore? My grandparents lived near Patterson Park in the east and I am very familiar with the Fells Point, Canton areas of Baltimore. Not so much the west side.
That is one fucked up city. I have lived in Md. for over 40 years and worked in baltimore shitty for 25 years. On the way to work i stopped at stores in the county to eat or get what i need, as soon as i got off i didnt stop until i was in the county again. I never spent one single dime in that hell hole.
That shit is so ghetto lol. I've lived in some rough area's, but I can tell by looking at these neighborhoods that this place is exactly were not to be. There are no cars and all the buildings are abandoned, and then out of nowhere 30 guys are just hanging out. Lol you will get killed in bmore.
Nice schowing but the music hehehe the music is a lil bit strange bro next time a litl bit high quality producers and more motional tracks are important for harmony ;)
I believe the homes @10:05, like a lot of East Baltimore, have been fully renovated. I could be wrong though if this is the same street I'm thinking of.
Yeah John's Hopkins and gentrification in general has really changed the entire city. Some neighborhoods are left untouched but aloot especially on the East Side of Baltimore has been cleaned up.
I am so glad I live in Europe. No hoods or whatever, no black people. Everywhere si relative save. Even girls can walk at night alone. There are some immigrants in western Europe but middle and eastern Europe is clean and safe. Thanks for that :). Hope all of you americans will be well :)
Trex Charles true I completely agree with you. Often projects like that fall to the waist side during budgeting. Its wrong to think this way but it has some truth to it. It cost twice as much fixing up a poverty stricken neighborhood due to the higher cost of maintaining it. Graffiti, trash and overall destruction.
The video is called Baltimore Ghetto's, not a tour of Baltimore City. The purpose was just to high light just that. I am sure you all realize that the city is NOT one huge slum.
I'm in Newark but born and raised in Bmore... The first Street is Tivoly off Harford Road. The first house by the corner store was my aunts house.. I'm right outside New York and still seeing my hoods from the Eastside Bmore..... Eastside Stand up..
I just wonder .. what happened with all those rappers that come from The hook and forget them ? ... they have the money and the pull to make their neighbors life better .... smh
seriously this isn't even showing the worst parts of Baltimore oh my word there are lots of Aries that look like bombed-out post World War II Europe the person who film this must have been afraid to drive through the worst parts of the city
they've tried all kinds of programs to revitalize areas of the city.. they were selling the housrs for a dollar to try to get people to buy them and fix them but the crime so bad even if people fixed them and moved in they wound up moving out. I worked with a woman who rehabbed a house in the city she only lasted 2 years.. she finally moved out after multiple break-ins and issues.One morning she found a dead body in her backyard that was it.. she didn't want to live someplace where people are getting shot in the head and dumped in her backyard and the police were ignorant acting to her about it having happened.
Exactly, most of these old rowhouses are too badly deteriorated and many are fire gutted. They are too far gone to repair so demolition and clearance is the only viable solution.

Maine has the lowest non-white population of any state in the nation, under 2%. 2. Maine has the lowest overall violent crime rate of any state in the nation. Take it for what it's worth but for me...enough said.
Ed Derbubba I'm sorry that you have to see what this generation as turned Baltimore into but atleast you have the good memories when it was good. I was born in 1992 so this is all i ever knew I was born in the city, Stricter Street I believe and my grandparents moved me out of there when I was 4 to a small town in Ocean City Maryland for a little while.
Maine sucks
My wife's family was originally from Baltimore and they started moving out in the late 1970s and 1980s and they've seen what a trash pit that it truly has become over the years. It used to be a working class city and built by labor and working people and now its just a bunch of deadbeats sitting around waiting for their dope fix or the next government handout.
With those row homes, this could easily be mistaken for North Philly Crazy how similar it looks.
I was born and raised in Lakeland. Baltimore isn't too bad, it is just not a place I want to raise my kids.
what is it like to live in Baltimore ?
Michal Tocimák Food is good, but I never trusted anyone. People will stab you in the back, literally. I moved becuased I have a daughter and son that I didn't want to grow up like I did.
It doesn't sound very well.I came from eastern europe and I'm considering moving to the USA this or next year.I've got family living on the east coast so I think east coast would be the best for me.After researching I still can't decide what state/city I should move to.What would you recommend ?
Michal Tocimák East Coast? I would suggest Charottle NC, anywhere in Flordia, New York is nice but expensive. Anywhere but Baltimore MD, and Philadelphia Pennsylvania.
Jon Sonnenleiter Yep I've heard much about how is Philly bad I wouldn't move there.People living out of US think that USA is what we see in TV serials and movies but it seems that it isn't :-)
Hey Aaron G u got some guts to go thru there wow
All the footage actually belongs to Lordbaltimore410, but I used to live over east before I moved and yeah it's crazy.
The dilapidation, the decrepitude, the disintegration and the squalor are just appalling! How can anyone LIVE like this???
PfctvsPontivsPilatvs its Baltimore what do you expect?
I love the rowhouses! We need these in NC.
Nice video. I guess this is what parts of Baltimore that I've deliberately avoided look like. Whats the first audio track in this video?
Thanks !
Waka Flocka - Fuck This Industry
Looks like Detroit, minus the row homes. Wow!!
***** Go look up gary IN..Its worse
3:30 that transformer is about to explode, the city should look into that
that was a baltimore Citiwatch camera
Is the majority of this video filmed in west Baltimore? My grandparents lived near Patterson Park in the east and I am very familiar with the Fells Point, Canton areas of Baltimore. Not so much the west side.
Baltimore actually doesn't look all that bad. I have seen a lot worse from other cities.
yo omar is coming
Lol..
The most beautiful cities always have the worst ghettos
I'm not proud of this but this is still my city
Beatz is hard!
Mike Derham lol I coming here every time for trap xD
at 1:10 is that a drug deal going down?
If that were nyc, there would be a coffee shop on every corner, bodegas, boutiques, and rent for at least 2 gs a month.
ALY HAWANA There used to be 1 million people in Baltimore
Whats the first Instrumental called??
That is one fucked up city. I have lived in Md. for over 40 years and worked in baltimore shitty for 25 years. On the way to work i stopped at stores in the county to eat or get what i need, as soon as i got off i didnt stop until i was in the county again. I never spent one single dime in that hell hole.
Is this Baltimore or Africa?
yo dancing at 9:48 😂.
That shit is so ghetto lol. I've lived in some rough area's, but I can tell by looking at these neighborhoods that this place is exactly were not to be. There are no cars and all the buildings are abandoned, and then out of nowhere 30 guys are just hanging out. Lol you will get killed in bmore.
Some parts remind of Detroit with buildings and houses burned out or bordered up SAD to see
10:05 entire row of vacants
Nice schowing but the music hehehe the music is a lil bit strange bro next time a litl bit high quality producers and more motional tracks are important for harmony ;)
kind of looks like north philly with less people.
I believe the homes @10:05, like a lot of East Baltimore, have been fully renovated. I could be wrong though if this is the same street I'm thinking of.
You're right a lot of that has been knocked down since this video thankfully
Yeah John's Hopkins and gentrification in general has really changed the entire city. Some neighborhoods are left untouched but aloot especially on the East Side of Baltimore has been cleaned up.
Is this a Democratic-run city like Detroit?
Lol is this really a question?? Hope it's sarcasm
I am so glad I live in Europe. No hoods or whatever, no black people. Everywhere si relative save. Even girls can walk at night alone. There are some immigrants in western Europe but middle and eastern Europe is clean and safe. Thanks for that :). Hope all of you americans will be well :)
HordeMajster. England, France, Sweden etc. are on the way towards Islam. That is what is told here. If so it will be sad for Europe.
Why tf you gotta say no black people, you probably not even white and trying to join they side by being just plain fucking racist
A little neighborhood pride would go a far way. Wouldn't take much to make it a nice city
John Johnson your absolutely right
Trex Charles your right but a little conscious effort goes a long way and doesn't cost a thing.
Trex Charles true I completely agree with you. Often projects like that fall to the waist side during budgeting. Its wrong to think this way but it has some truth to it. It cost twice as much fixing up a poverty stricken neighborhood due to the higher cost of maintaining it. Graffiti, trash and overall destruction.
geoff just go watch the Wire season 3 and 4
It's like those strange dreams I used to have. Everything looks the same. No yards, barely any trees, grass just bricks, concrete and asphalt.
@4:52 he rode down lorraine ave 400blk dats down greenmount east baltimore where i used 2 live
What is the name of the instrumental at the beginning of the video?
Chance the rapper "Fuck you Tahm Bout"
3:06 try driving through that part of bmore without maryland tags, no way u would make it out. West baltimore is a war zone
How about using a garbage can. SMH.
what's really sad is I didn't see one McDonald's damn
Elliott Adams these neighborhoods in Baltimore are too poor to support a McDonald's and even a Dollar General.
Elliott Adams most of Baltimore is too broke to patronize a McDonald's.
Urban renewal?
The video is called Baltimore Ghetto's, not a tour of Baltimore City. The purpose was just to high light just that. I am sure you all realize that the city is NOT one huge slum.
I'm in Newark but born and raised in Bmore... The first Street is Tivoly off Harford Road. The first house by the corner store was my aunts house.. I'm right outside New York and still seeing my hoods from the Eastside Bmore..... Eastside Stand up..
I grew up in the 2800 block of Harford Road. Productive citizens have and continue to be raised in that neighborhood.
i can smell the weed
TreborArrabi I can smell the weave
Trevor and weed
TreborArrabi We are more of a Heroine kinda place.
whats the second beat?
Gucci Mane - White Horse
Too many abandoned buildings, how come?
Check those corner kids 👀👀that's my city
people from outta town dont know what we been through, they never will im from bmore and survived,if u were here u would;nt
I know nothing of the area. Can you explain?
tysonuk
Next time ask Omar or Tyron.
I just wonder .. what happened with all those rappers that come from
The hook and forget them ? ... they have the money and the pull to make their neighbors life better .... smh
What rappers, Baltimore doesn't have any rap stars????
What's wrong with these streets, except for a couple of exceptions? Am I missing something? Educate me on this please, as I am not American.
looks like hell
Just got done watching the wire. Wondered what the Ghetto looked like in Baltimore. thanks for posting.
Chad D76 Glad you enjoyed. Now bring the fam. over.
Those foreigners who thought America was paved with gold take a look. This should never happen in the richest country on earth.
dennis menace 💯
That's what they say when they print that fake paper that's not backed by gold anylonger.
Who told u america is the richest country
name of the first street at the beginning ?
tivioly avenue
+Alex Berkman thank u !
this doesn't look rough to me. it looks a little run down but not scary
That first beat cold....
Baltimore Stand UP!
-OneManBand
this looks like 611 South Philly!
The corner doc brought me here
Did you enjoy your online tour of Baltimore's decaying slums?
And this video just shows east Baltimore
They should have shown Reservoir Hill and west Baltimore. That would have been a real treat.
@@robertpreskop4425 maybe leakin park.....
seriously this isn't even showing the worst parts of Baltimore oh my word there are lots of Aries that look like bombed-out post World War II Europe the person who film this must have been afraid to drive through the worst parts of the city
hard to read the street signs - what areas - Bermuda Bar - North street right?
This made me wanna watch Dirty Harry from 1971. WTH it's not even similar??
Baltimore's resemblance to Philly is crazy.
for sure
All these boarded up brown stones need to demolished.
they've tried all kinds of programs to revitalize areas of the city.. they were selling the housrs for a dollar to try to get people to buy them and fix them but the crime so bad even if people fixed them and moved in they wound up moving out. I worked with a woman who rehabbed a house in the city she only lasted 2 years.. she finally moved out after multiple break-ins and issues.One morning she found a dead body in her backyard that was it.. she didn't want to live someplace where people are getting shot in the head and dumped in her backyard and the police were ignorant acting to her about it having happened.
Exactly, most of these old rowhouses are too badly deteriorated and many are fire gutted. They are too far gone to repair so demolition and clearance is the only viable solution.
The Bright side is plywood sales are great!
Trex Charles Well Damn! - I was going to export SC plywood and go in business.
