@@slowbro1337 so you telling me that if you getting shot in the US you got to pay the ambulance ride?? and the bills of the hospital?!? yall really getting fxcked
Midtown formerly known as 4th Ward before it was gentrified. I thought the chances of getting shot there would have decreased but I guess not, glad you lived.
Sure it is just ask all the people in the UA-cam comments who never had to struggle, they got all the answers Or the foreigners who never been to this country they know how easy it is too😂😂😂
Its crazy, i live in rice village and seeing this side of Houston up close is crazy. Its like night and day even though I could probably drive here in less than 20 minutes
I grew up by 5th ward family been inside the loop since the 40s. I been in Katy last 20 yrs and I’m amazed how many Houstonians have never seen these areas they are the original Houston. This is what I think of when I think of Houston.
I lived in Houston for 37 years. Between 5th ward and 3rd ward. I don't miss the trains or the traffic. And people are crazy out there. Road rage is the worse.
@@michaelmarro2513 and actually the light rail comes prettt close to 5th ward. I don't know what neighborhood that is on the northside that fulton st runs through but it's close and they have the metro rail.
I love how almost every house has a grill in the yard, they throw down on the pit. I used to buy blunts from 5th Ward when I was in high school, 3 for $10 all day lol. It was sketchy sometimes, but people were generally chill and kept to themselves. I never had any issues with anyone except a couple crackheads, but they were easy to shoo away. It is crazy to see the condition of the houses, they looked bad back 20 years ago, now a gust of wind will knock them over.
RIP 4th Ward aka Freedmen's Town now known as Midtown after it was gentrified. It was the first neighborhood in Houston that Blacks lived in after the slaves were freed. Back in the days the 4 looked like haunted houses from a horror movie, it was dilapidated asf...bandos with dopefiends and d boys everywhere. And I can't forget Allen Parkway Village - APV was raw. 4th Ward used to always beef with 5th Ward.
In the 80's, my mother would take us to what we referred to as "The Sandbox". It was this park off Allen Parkway. One afternoon, my friend Amy and I were running around playing when we had to pee. As we squatted in what we thought was a secure area, this group of black girls spotted us and began to make their way over to where we were. I can only describe it as the stairs in the water and a caged walkway over Allen Parkway. I grabbed Amy and ran. We were too far from my mother so we ducked and hid until we made our way to that caged walkway. I had Amy run with me over into that housing area. We continued to duck, run, hide. At on point we rounded a house and ran into a drunk black man. We made him jump, two little white girls running in his 'hood'. He even said, "Oh my God, you made me jump"! He then took notice that we were running from a group of angry black girls and then aided in our escape. I was about 11 and Amy was 8. Good times. That was a "wholesome" story compared to others that I have.
I moved across the country after I purchased a home in Houston. I had bought a house in 3rd ward and I adored every moment. I was a clear culture shock, bit I was able to quickly understand how it was and never stepped on any toes. My neighbors were wonderful people. Lost my home to Ike and moved to Dallas shortly after. I miss it, sometimes.
I lived in Conroe just outside Houston during Hurricane Ike. I stayed and was not happy I did . Sorry you lost your home , I did clean up after and it was bad.
If you could make it in Htwn Then u could pretty much make it anywhere bcuz coming up back in the 80's and 90's Houston lead the nation in Homicides && til this day so many cases still cold && unresolved And Although Houston has toned down a little since then its still has a higher homicide rate then cities such as Chicago,Nyc,&& L.A♥️❤️❤️
Wrong!! 100 percent wrong. You did not lead the nation in murders in the 80s and 90s. Lol really laughable. Yeah Nyc would average over 1500 to close to 2000 homicides from 84 to 93, Houstons worse three years could not even top one year of Nyc homicides, and don't come with the population rates per Capita. Nyc in the 80s to the early 90s had well over 10,000 murders. Tjose are freaking mexico cartel like murders. Smh .. people love being the worst at something. Well no worries you are. Houston is the shit bowl of America. 😂😂😂😂
I grew up in Greenspoint a.k.a. 'Gunspoint' - 70's thru 90's. City Under Siege was based on my neighbourhood. Crackheads burned down the daycare my brothers and I attended just three blocks from my house. They also burned down the playground at my elementary school a few blocks away. By junior high (80's), there was a cop shop installed across the street from Stovall Jr High due to the amount of gang fights and such. Kids were bringing guns and other forms of weapons to school for their safety. I was involved in one such 'gang' fight. Those cops were worthless. They would simply stand in the door and watch the violence. The convenience store began to lock the doors after every 5 people in the store. My eldest brother and his friends were constantly jumped and their shoes and jackets and everything else ripped off of them. These were not "people", they were pure animals. Not human. So much violence. My girlfriends and I could no longer walk to the stores in safety. We were constantly pursued and chased with rape as the intent. These were people from the 5th ward that essentially spray-painted "Lil Fifth Ward" and "Greenspoint Posse" every where. I have said the exact thing you stated. I concur.
yea true dat see in central city where I'm from v.a. we have a part of town called the mid town m.l.k. boulevard area it's dangerous cause it's on the west side area.
These houses structure wise are good , all they need is maintenance , this is also the case for the street , the " hoods " can be beautiful places to live in its just up to the occupants since the authorities don't seem to care

The work is right there my friend, you are watching hood commerce at it's finest. Don't let the shotgun houses and projects fool you, it's money in the ghetto! ;)
If you ever come here make sure you link up with someone that really knows the city. There is no zoning so if you don't know where you are going you can miss out on all the best spots.
Back in the 80's and 90's, cops wouldn't go there. They would laugh at you if you wound up in those areas. My mother, young brother and I accidentally wound up in the ward area - mother made a wrong turn. These black dudes leapt at my mother's car and threw bottles at us. I was 12 and my little brother was 8. Those fuckers did not care.
@@cristinaherrera5321 this was in the early 00s, I only lived in the humble/Alvin area when I was really young with family in Pearland, I knew I had fucked up... Later on in life I met a friend who lived there in the 90s and he said one day he woke up and there were two dudes sleeped in his front yard. Lots of pain, it's sad to think deeply on. Glad you and your family got through there.
