“City is out of control” is hilarious, you obviously haven’t been to the west coast. People move to Charlotte because it’s a generally nice and safe area. Have lived here for over 5 years
Having been to a lot of cities charlotte is easily has some of the worse trenches in America. However it’s not very wide spread compared to some other cities.
The fact that more like you are moving to NC to get away and get to a safer place , but yet still vote the same way that you did in the area you were, makes our cites become what you left. It's only getting worse.
I grew up in Southwest Atlanta. You guys are correct about the "Hood". The hoods were made to keep blacks and everyone that's not white. I'm from back in the day they kept us where they wanted to go get us when they needed us
I live in Charlotte and love it here. The first area you drove through was sugar creek/ hidden valley area. There's more suburbs than hoods in the Queen city.
As someone who was raised in Charlotte, and has also lived in Philly, New Orleans, oakland, and nyc, and been to every continental US state i can say that Charlotte is one of the least dangerous major cities in the country. Ive walked all over all the bad neighborhoods in Charlotte and never felt threatened in the least so yall are dramatic af with the title of this video.
Same here. I'm born and raised in DC, but now live in Charlotte NC for the last 14 years and this is really like one big suburb. It's literally the cleanest city I have ever been to. And this is a good thing. We should campaign for more cities like this.
I'm born and raised in Charlotte and yall got it twisted. Charlotte has become a horribly dangerous all over. And I was born in Lakeview raised in Dalton Village and shit is much worse now than it was back then.
How many times did you circle that one area in order for you to be harassed by that guy? People aren’t stupid and will likely point out suspicious things like cars circling blocks. I live in Charlotte, and the area being filmed is currently being gentrified. I’ve driven through there for work almost daily without issue.
Since 1976, I have lived in this neighborhood (off of Eastway/ Shamrock Dr. / Central Ave. ) I have seen this city go from good to bad. I have seen alot and have been involved with city public service. YES, you are right. The city is out of control. This area is NOT being gentrified--- No, this area is NOT being gentrified. And, I have talked to the City until I was blue in the face! I want to make my point clear. Plus, it is very upsetting to watch the city throw money into the rich neighborhoods (Ballentyne, the South End, the North End, West Charlotte, when we here in (EAST Charlotte, where you videoed, have been trying for 20+ years for them to do something with the 80-acres at the old Eastland Mall area. I use to go to Eastland Mall for shopping; but when it became infested with drugs, gangs, shooting (now like Northlake Mall), it was DEMOLISHED. The crime in East Charlotte is ridiculously high. Now the city is finally doing something with the Eastland Mall area- exactly what, we don't know. They go back and forth, back and forth- (all talk and no action!) for 20+ years now. Just today, I was at the ALDI on Albemarle Road and there were gun shots in the apartments behind-- this is an everyday occurrence around E.CLT. To prove, I have bullet holes where a bullet came into my bedroom wall and went across into my bathroom wall and into the next wall across. Last night the CMPD chopper was over my backyard and police cars were flying down my street. Later I saw on 'Next Door' the person was arrested. I am a pastor, and this is were the Lord has me planted amongst the most multi-cultural part of the city where the immigrants/ refugees mostly settled- many of them have done very well financially & socially.. and have moved to other parts of the city.
@FLINTmitten810 Oh believe me I grew up in WI. Had to move to SC because the winter is so miserable and lasts for 6 months. It got to -40 a couple years ago
@avengedfingsevenfold meh. It depends on the locale. Grey skies are depressing in Charlotte because there's not much natural beauty around. Just hoods and burbs all around. In places like Seattle, you're surrounded by Evergreen trees, cherry blossoms in the spring, and mountains and water all around you so it contrasts well with the gray skies. Blue skies are great too, but you appreciate nature more in some cities regardless of the weather.
My biggest real complaint about Charlotte is that it’s difficult to get a place to live. It’s not *that* affordable (I can’t afford a place in Charlotte by myself without assistance). The housing authority just recommends you shelters and one shelter makes you call some number (closed after 5 and on weekends) to be accepted just to get in. I think trashy people are attracted to Charlotte from other places and if you have a bad encounter with someone there chances are they’re responsible. They’re probably also occupying the shelters and housing assistance workers, which a city this size doesn’t have enough of. But instead Charlotte keeps building luxury apartments and condos, which we really don’t need more of.
Yes. And the city council is forever talking about "affordable housing, affordable housing..." but, please tell us, city council, where is the "affordable housing"? And, to whom is the housing affordable??"
@@rarefruit2320 I was waiting for someone you to say something like this. And nobody needs this type of attitude. It doesn’t benefit you to think this way and it certainly doesn’t make my life easier. You could actually incorporate sympathy into your words to others, but why have you instead chosen flippancy?
I agree, you can find bad areas in (Any) State or City in America, if you look long enough. Looking at this video you are just circling the block over and over in one area. You have to show the Good and the Bad of any State or City to be fair. Stop making videos that this, just is not right be truthful. This is not downtown Charlotte, I know this for a fact Just Joe
I was gonna explain why it’s stupid to be doing that, and then realized the fact we charlotte folks be thinking like that is bc we always looking over shoulders and saving our ass…. So it would only prove Charlotte ain’t it 💀😩🤣
Yes I've stayed in Atlanta for 2 years, it's more dangerous walking to the store there than Charlotte. Have u see the residential neighborhoods, 3 or 4 blocks of borded up house and apartments line the streets there. Charlotte has rough areas, people here know not to go to those areas, sugar creek is one of the roughest parts of the city, but Atlanta has much more rough areas and Baltimore, Houston, Detroit, even Memphis.
You have to understand Charlotte is one of the largest cities in the US. I live in a suburb west of Charlotte and am extremely familiar with the city. For a city its size (890,000), the crime rate isn’t that bad. One of the lowest rates of homelessness, one of the cleanest. You went through very select neighborhoods like Hidden Valley, trying to portray it as the norm. Most areas are actually very nice, again, for a city its size. I would never want to live in a big, central city of a metro area. Its liberal policies just create too many problems like you see in SF, LA, NYC, Portland, and DC. But Charlottes suburbs are great and the city itself is safe if you use wisdom and just stay out of the few ghetto areas. We have been here for years and have never had a problem.
well, this is our second trip here and both have been a nightmare. maybe the out of state tags make us a target, not sure. thats not a paid actor homie really was wild
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS You can find nightmares in any large Metropolitan city like Charlotte. I live in Miami and an acquaintance of mine who lives near Liberty City tells me that he often hears gunshots late at night and his neighborhood has experienced a string of break ins ever since he moved there to be close to his family.The crime rate in Charlotte is quite low compared to other large cities including Miami.
Jose likes to trash a lot of places especially major cities. Yes they all have their bad parts just like most other big cities . This guy is always seeing the bad stuff.
🤔🤔🤔 This video basically showed one small area. This is the sugar creek area, and this person went into the Hidden Valley Neighborhood near sugar along with a little bit of the eastside of Charlotte. A lot of those areas are currently being gentrified and a lot of it is being torn down and new buildings are being built just like the rest of the city 💯💯
I was eating lunch at an out door Cafe downtown and a guy parked at the curb got out and deficated in the gutter. That was bad. The waiter said, they usually do that at night.
63 yrs old. Lived in Charlotte all my life. My job i saw the good side and the bad everyday. Seen good neighborhoods go bad, and seen bad neighborhoods turned good. You make loops through some areas like that and your gonna be spotted and approached, sometimes shot at. But Like most cities, you have city/ county officials saying they are gonna make it better is just all talk. Charlotte officials have always wanted it to become another Atlanta.
If I lived at that nice 3 story apartment complex I would be uncomfortable going to that Shell station, a lot of shady characters loitering around there. Then that weird guy yelling at you in the street of the apt. complex leading out, crazy. Be careful running over curbs, you don't have your truck anymore! I know you two had to get away for safety reasons, but I just worry, I'm old enough to be you or Katies's mom, lol, I just worry.
What is wrong with this driver, overreacting. Everybody else is walking the street with these people with no problem. Keep this crazy mindset up and you will be on the street to with a mental problem.
I'm the type of idiot with great emotional control and common sense. Don't let the foolishness in your head harm somebody else. That driver was about to kill other people over their own foolish thoughts. They were more dangerous than what they were running from.
I lived in Charlotte in the Noda area for over 55 years, I finally moved and have never been happier, every damn time I would go to Food Lion on the Plaza at Matheson a creature would appear from behind the building and say "you got money man? I need to buy diapers for my babies" or some other B.S. lie, I had to even plan my gas fill-up because there would be another creature that would suddenly appear before me and want money, I'm so glad to be away from Charlotte, it used to be pretty nice but now it's too crowded with creatures.
That Food Lion has been robbed so many times it is unreal. My son went to visit his friend in NoDa they went to get something to eat and when they got back to his friends home and parked 2 Black guys robbed them, knowing my son to well he only had ten dollars in his pocket. Is this worth having a gun put to their heads? Only bad thing is his friend bought the house before this happened. So it hasn’t changed that much in years still robbing ppl and killings on 36th street. Glad I moved out of Charlotte even thou I was born there many years ago and my Mother also may she RIP. Yes both born at Presbyterian Hospital now Novant and yes even my Sons were born there.
Bullshit Charlotte is one of the cleanest and most attractive cities I ever lived in don’t be fooled this is tamed compared to other cities that I have been in
Yea. Go to any neighborhood where people are actively keeping a watchful eye for suspicious, unknown, and out of town cars. Keep making those kinds of loops. Then call them crazy for wanting to see whats up with you or at least get a good look at your face. With all the shootings in CLT, people will approach you first rather than wait to see what you're gonna do the next time you make a loop. I DoorDash in CLT. Be prepared to be approached if you're unknown and doing anything suspicious like this. I've never been bothered. But I also know how to make it obvious who I am and what I'm doing without saying a word. If you do this same thing in a Pineville or Ballantyne neighborhood, the reaction will be the same. But confrontation will be different. You'd be talking to the police.
Looking at this video and observing some of the landmarks like the Octapharma Plasma donation center you was near a very hood area called Hidden Valley. I'm not even from Charlotte and never lived there but I heard Hidden Valley was real bad several years ago. They had a documentary about this gang called the Hidden Valley Kings. Most of the places I visited in Charlotte was the southside area and all the local malls and Carowinds amusement park and Uptown Charlotte. I also visited Rock Hill ,S.C.
I rather flee than have to pull. I am not saying i did this, but its something that will bother you for a long time even if it’s legally excused that doesn’t mean its what your gonna wanna carry with you. There was no reason to use it here. Some people are best not even having stuff like that around.
You think charlotte is outta control , you ain’t seen nothing yet , come to Brooklyn, NYC 🌇 I’ll show you outta control , it’s straight gun smoke 💨 up here !!!
I was in Brooklyn as recently as 2 months ago. You cant even blow a red light or drive 5mph too fast because everyone block has cameras. I had a great time in BK, very nice and diverse community. Stop trying to sound cool or portray your town as bad.. i been there.. can’t fool me seen it myself.
Im from philly ,i just visited Charlotte a few days ago and it was beautiful, so i youtube'd are there dangerous hoods in Charlotte and came to this ,and if this hood look like paradise compared to philly 😂
That does not look that bad. I hear the "Excuse me" from bums everyday driving home from work where I live, but I don't freak out. I carry, but never had to pull it. I just tell them I don't have any cash on me abd they normally go about their way. Not a big deal usually.
Sugar Creek ain't NEARLY what it used to be some years back...this is timid, there's air bnb's and stuff over there now 😂😂.....but dude was on yo ass about filming lmaoooo
Bra you weird is hell ridin round people filmin and shit instead of tryna expose how bad someway is help mfs out dey in need that why buddy was tryna hop in ya car wit you 😂😂😂
I remember when you lived in Naples and did Florida videos.I'm leaving ft Myers after 12 years and moving to rural North Carolina.Housing sucks here and to much crime.
At sugar creek rd there is an alternative school TPA I went to, there are teens there that have illegal firearms, vapes, knives, weed, and steal cars, and hang in gangs, luckily I never joined a gang bc some of em rlly shoot I heard. So to everyone saying Charlotte is safe, there are even adults who do the gang shit 😅
Native Charlotte residents hate their city. They are the minority population after New Yorkers and a huge collective of migrants from Ohio, California and Florida. The native residents go out of their way to "put their city on the worst ghetto map". The local government passed some ordinances that literally rid the city of all of its ghettos. Before I moved here I didn't even know that was possible. There are ghetto streets here and there but most of the city is gorgeous. Whatever ordinance that was passed forced residents of various incomes and races to all live in the same neighborhoods. So, instead of streets filled with mansions or shacks, you can literally, see a mansion right next door to a shack. It's weird and attractive at the same time. There are exceptions. Some streets are still one or the other. Last year, Charlotte was ranked number fifty nine on the dangerous cities ratings for the United States. I was raised in both Kansas City and Cleveland, both of which are in the top ten. This year, 2023, Charlotte isn't even in the top sixty. The locals are heated. They can't even hide it. They hate how beautiful and peaceful most of Charlotte is. I know what I'm saying sounds ridiculous but you'd have to come here to believe it. They try to hide it by talking about gentrification but (as I said earlier) I'm from the hood. My people (outside of Black suburbanites and Black activists) don't even use the word "gentrification". The locals are just some of the most uninspired and unproductive people I've ever met. Nearly all of the growth that this city is experiencing is because of the people moving here from cities that are actually high in the crime and murder ratings list. People who are sick and tired of ghetto life and ghetto mentalities because they actually lived in real ghettos all of their lives. I also have to point out that it's not just the native Charlotte residents that are trying to make it on to the crime rankings map. There are a lot of ghetto minded people here from South Carolina too and there are a lot of ghetto minded people here from some of the Latino countries (Central America, South America, the Caribbean Islands). Much of our Latino family are also filthy people. Most of them are decent people but a lot of them are here for trifling reasons. They have a clueless mentality that makes them unable to recognize the beauty and opportunity that Charlotte presents. Overall, (with over 1 million residents inside the city) Charlotte is probably the safest and most peaceful large city in the country.
I’m from Little Rock, AR and have also lived in New Orleans. Charlotte is where it’s at!!! We purchased a condo here last summer and I love the trees and nature. I’m right on the greenway and steps from a shopping center. Healthcare is top notch. Why do you think it’s #1 in the housing market in the country? Y’all better appreciate what you have.
That ain’t true… Charlotte is the south for one… for two I’d rather take my chances in Charlotte than in Miami, broward county, belle glade, Tampa, New Orleans, Jackson Mississippi, any city in South Carolina, Houston, etc… y’all just love to talk
No matter where you go it's mostly all the same unless it's a super wealthy area. Every state has 4 or 5 cities(or more) that are crumbling and decrepit no matter what direction...
Just a normal day in Charlotte. Dad was transferred to Charlotte in JAN 1970. It was a sleepy southern town.....still had Blue Laws. In 2001 I escaped Charlotte. But in 2019 we returned for a funeral. We stayed in a 'good' area eastside. When leaving we were attacked by a LARGE homeless man. We escaped again but almost had to run down a person in self defense. Eastway Dr is still in the good side of town....try 'Beattie For Roo' next time.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 wow that was a stupid comment to say, not even close. The murder rate alone. It takes a serious lack of knowledge to say something like that. Go read some analysis on crime and come back please!

I know you two had to get away for safety reasons, but I just worry, I'm old enough to be you or Katies's mom, lol, I just worry.
Working a regular job can have its dangers too
The damn thugs are everywhere
@@thugwarsusa5250Yea thugs in every race of people!
This is a bizarre and informative video 💯
You were scared to death
The hole world is falling apart. It is sad but true!
You lack the knowledge & discretion to blend in and present an accurate portrayal of the area.
You are the only one out of control
Yo mama
It looks crazy out there… and why the guy kept saying excuse me?😩
Lived in charlotte for 11 years. Greatest time of my life
Seems to me like you were looking for trouble. The only thing out of control is you!!!
i had no idea putting a gopro on your car was illegal
for just driving through you tweaking like hell
Stayed at the Radisson W.Woodlawn Rd location May 2023. It was sad seeing so many drug addicts outside of that place.
Never have been out in the city, but it's the worst airport I've ever been to for layovers.
I love Charlotte but people CANNOT drive here. I’ve put a student driver magnet on my car so people won’t ride my bumper…I think it’s working.
Brand new apartments anyone?
So that guy meth speed ran the block up to the light and hit the back of the car or what?
That hello guy scared me
😢What’s out of control about it??????????? I saw 👀 nothing that was out of control.
Thanks for the drive through footage ✅
What is wrong with this driver, overreacting. Everybody else is walking the street with these people with no problem. Keep this crazy mindset up and you will be on the street to with a mental problem.
Your the type of idiot that will let someone kill you because you can’t blow a stop sign 🤣
I'm the type of idiot with great emotional control and common sense. Don't let the foolishness in your head harm somebody else. That driver was about to kill other people over their own foolish thoughts. They were more dangerous than what they were running from.
What do you expect you pulled up on them like 3x at the gas station
Y’all saying charlotte sweet till you come live here city been wicked it just got worse and ain’t nobody gone fw you if you stay out the way 🤷🏿♂️
Aint that bad. Barely 60 murders with like 900,000 ppl
when i lived in charlotte for 7 years I was a kid but it was peaceful even though I lived more on the hood side fun days, miss charlotte

I lived in Charlotte in the Noda area for over 55 years, I finally moved and have never been happier, every damn time I would go to Food Lion on the Plaza at Matheson a creature would appear from behind the building and say "you got money man? I need to buy diapers for my babies" or some other B.S. lie, I had to even plan my gas fill-up because there would be another creature that would suddenly appear before me and want money, I'm so glad to be away from Charlotte, it used to be pretty nice but now it's too crowded with creatures.
I am So sorry for you having to move. I know its not a good feeling. I don’t understand how so many people just accepted that bad situation as normal
@Dr. Sleep The NODA has almost been completely gentrified and has gone through many changes. A lot of the stuff their now is brand new.
That Food Lion has been robbed so many times it is unreal. My son went to visit his friend in NoDa they went to get something to eat and when they got back to his friends home and parked 2 Black guys robbed them, knowing my son to well he only had ten dollars in his pocket. Is this worth having a gun put to their heads? Only bad thing is his friend bought the house before this happened. So it hasn’t changed that much in years still robbing ppl and killings on 36th street. Glad I moved out of Charlotte even thou I was born there many years ago and my Mother also may she RIP. Yes both born at Presbyterian Hospital now Novant and yes even my Sons were born there.
the homeless people in our city are not creatures! Have some respect
Calling homeless creatures is a new low lol
I bet Charlotte was one of your more adventurous cities,never boring!,I bet you can't wait to move there!!
I can’t wait to leave 🤣🤣🤣
Dang that same guy caught up with you again? Don’t kill yourself running from him though😂
6:10 what was that about?
“Meow, Why you keep on?”
Been living in one of them hotels for too long. Grateful i got a roof over my head though. Thats the creek for you thoughl it just needs a little TLC.
Bullshit Charlotte is one of the cleanest and most attractive cities I ever lived in don’t be fooled this is tamed compared to other cities that I have been in
Thank you bro
Wow the dude just walked up to your car , and he dont even know u , cause you on his turf , Niggaz boy lol
West Charlotte and Beatties Ford areas still stands the worst. Hidden Valley is a close third place.
A part of my family lives near sugar creek, it’s really not as bad as this video makes it out to be
Yea. Go to any neighborhood where people are actively keeping a watchful eye for suspicious, unknown, and out of town cars. Keep making those kinds of loops. Then call them crazy for wanting to see whats up with you or at least get a good look at your face. With all the shootings in CLT, people will approach you first rather than wait to see what you're gonna do the next time you make a loop. I DoorDash in CLT. Be prepared to be approached if you're unknown and doing anything suspicious like this. I've never been bothered. But I also know how to make it obvious who I am and what I'm doing without saying a word.
If you do this same thing in a Pineville or Ballantyne neighborhood, the reaction will be the same. But confrontation will be different. You'd be talking to the police.
they would be making funeral arrangements iam from florida
@FloridaHoodVlogs but you left your front end of your car at the curb you ran over to get away. You aren’t as hard as you think.
I know I saw cars crossing through the train tracks when the red lights were on.
Looking at this video and observing some of the landmarks like the Octapharma Plasma donation center you was near a very hood area called Hidden Valley. I'm not even from Charlotte and never lived there but I heard Hidden Valley was real bad several years ago. They had a documentary about this gang called the Hidden Valley Kings. Most of the places I visited in Charlotte was the southside area and all the local malls and Carowinds amusement park and Uptown Charlotte. I also visited Rock Hill ,S.C.
We saw some had spots
Charlotte native!!!! You're right ab Hidden Valley!!!! This tour is like finding the shittiest
I was just going to say , have you been to San Francisco, L.A or San Diego lately ?
If you have , you’ll be so grateful to call Charlotte home
Hell even aurora co is worse . Lived there for a bit and damn near got robbed by dope fiends every damn night sftee work
yea I say next time you go to charlotte jose you should buy a strap just keep on you just to be safe. that's if that state allows it.
You only use that in last option there was no reason to pull it here. Besides someone all zombied out wont be afraid
I rather flee than have to pull. I am not saying i did this, but its something that will bother you for a long time even if it’s legally excused that doesn’t mean its what your gonna wanna carry with you. There was no reason to use it here. Some people are best not even having stuff like that around.
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS true
🙃
Is this bc out of state plates?
You think charlotte is outta control , you ain’t seen nothing yet , come to Brooklyn, NYC 🌇 I’ll show you outta control , it’s straight gun smoke 💨 up here !!!
I was in Brooklyn as recently as 2 months ago. You cant even blow a red light or drive 5mph too fast because everyone block has cameras. I had a great time in BK, very nice and diverse community. Stop trying to sound cool or portray your town as bad.. i been there.. can’t fool me seen it myself.
Being close to Seattle here in Washington state..nothing can shock me anymore
reallly? seatle murder rate 1/10th of cities here on the east coast. more property crimes? i gotta get out here too
The roads are horrible n hard to see the lines 🤦🏾♀️ plus’s so many rocks/pebbles on the roads
Try south Carolina roads
Im from philly ,i just visited Charlotte a few days ago and it was beautiful, so i youtube'd are there dangerous hoods in Charlotte and came to this ,and if this hood look like paradise compared to philly 😂
i NEVER had people attack me in philly..
Everyone claims Charlotte is a nice place to live untill their families are making the funeral arrangements
Why did you use a photo of people waiting at a bus stop as the thumbnail? Whats bad about a bus stop?
Why he dip out like that lmao 🤣 😂 they just wanted to tell you your warranty expired 🤣🤣🤣
His warranty almost expired he lucky i was able to save him by leaving
That does not look that bad. I hear the "Excuse me" from bums everyday driving home from work where I live, but I don't freak out. I carry, but never had to pull it. I just tell them I don't have any cash on me abd they normally go about their way. Not a big deal usually.
No! He said ma’am why you keep. Oh boy took off! lol!!
Sugar Creek ain't NEARLY what it used to be some years back...this is timid, there's air bnb's and stuff over there now 😂😂.....but dude was on yo ass about filming lmaoooo
Bra you weird is hell ridin round people filmin and shit instead of tryna expose how bad someway is help mfs out dey in need that why buddy was tryna hop in ya car wit you 😂😂😂
Do one for the freedom drive area next! Toddville road. Scarlet pointe apartments is just as bad.
Jose, can you tour Jacksonville NC
I remember when you lived in Naples and did Florida videos.I'm leaving ft Myers after 12 years and moving to rural North Carolina.Housing sucks here and to much crime.
At sugar creek rd there is an alternative school TPA I went to, there are teens there that have illegal firearms, vapes, knives, weed, and steal cars, and hang in gangs, luckily I never joined a gang bc some of em rlly shoot I heard. So to everyone saying Charlotte is safe, there are even adults who do the gang shit 😅
I LIVE IN CHARLOTTE AND THIS MAN SPEAKS THE TRUTH!!! MY NEIGHBORHOOD IS THE F$@CKING WILD WILD WEST!!!
Should've known not to record on sugar Creek 😂💀 but good content
well, keep in mind tho.. NOWHERE did the internet say this was a bad area... i was just free style driving thru
Could've at least said thank you or something. .
Native Charlotte residents hate their city. They are the minority population after New Yorkers and a huge collective of migrants from Ohio, California and Florida.
The native residents go out of their way to "put their city on the worst ghetto map".
The local government passed some ordinances that literally rid the city of all of its ghettos. Before I moved here I didn't even know that was possible.
There are ghetto streets here and there but most of the city is gorgeous.
Whatever ordinance that was passed forced residents of various incomes and races to all live in the same neighborhoods. So, instead of streets filled with mansions or shacks, you can literally, see a mansion right next door to a shack. It's weird and attractive at the same time. There are exceptions. Some streets are still one or the other.
Last year, Charlotte was ranked number fifty nine on the dangerous cities ratings for the United States.
I was raised in both Kansas City and Cleveland, both of which are in the top ten.
This year, 2023, Charlotte isn't even in the top sixty.
The locals are heated. They can't even hide it. They hate how beautiful and peaceful most of Charlotte is.
I know what I'm saying sounds ridiculous but you'd have to come here to believe it.
They try to hide it by talking about gentrification but (as I said earlier) I'm from the hood. My people (outside of Black suburbanites and Black activists) don't even use the word "gentrification".
The locals are just some of the most uninspired and unproductive people I've ever met.
Nearly all of the growth that this city is experiencing is because of the people moving here from cities that are actually high in the crime and murder ratings list. People who are sick and tired of ghetto life and ghetto mentalities because they actually lived in real ghettos all of their lives.
I also have to point out that it's not just the native Charlotte residents that are trying to make it on to the crime rankings map. There are a lot of ghetto minded people here from South Carolina too and there are a lot of ghetto minded people here from some of the Latino countries (Central America, South America, the Caribbean Islands). Much of our Latino family are also filthy people.
Most of them are decent people but a lot of them are here for trifling reasons. They have a clueless mentality that makes them unable to recognize the beauty and opportunity that Charlotte presents.
Overall, (with over 1 million residents inside the city) Charlotte is probably the safest and most peaceful large city in the country.
Darn best comment on here. PREACH !!
I’m from Little Rock, AR and have also lived in New Orleans. Charlotte is where it’s at!!! We purchased a condo here last summer and I love the trees and nature. I’m right on the greenway and steps from a shopping center. Healthcare is top notch. Why do you think it’s #1 in the housing market in the country? Y’all better appreciate what you have.
Facts Charlotte is beutiful , I lived in Hartford Ct which is a ghetto ass dump fr , planning on moving to Charlotte very soon .
@@LovelyLady. The trees are my favorite thing about Charlotte and all of North Carolina.
Charlotte has high crime do your research
im from tampa,fl.,lived in charlotte a few years...Shannon Park off of Plaza Rd...Charlotte was a very nice place
Yo do a St Louis / east st Louis tour !
Those elements should not be allowed to move from place to place

Go for a tour in Atlanta, Baltimore, DC, Louisville, Memphis, New Orleans, Miami. Then compare. Many might be glad to be in Charlotte..🤷🏾♂️
HOW DARE YOU throw MIAMI in there.. you are SLOW. I rather visit Miami, Louisville, NO, before charlotte. Lived in Louisville, worked in Miami.
Bro dipped tf out 😂😂😂😂
You wanted me to stay??? 🧐

You haven’t seen out of control lmao. Also who the hell stops in the middle of a turning lane like that?
Yo mama when she sees a 🍆
The further north one travels the worse it gets 😂.
That ain’t true… Charlotte is the south for one… for two I’d rather take my chances in Charlotte than in Miami, broward county, belle glade, Tampa, New Orleans, Jackson Mississippi, any city in South Carolina, Houston, etc… y’all just love to talk
@@FLINTmitten810 bruh judging from watching these videos I don’t think Tampa and Miami is worse than Charlotte 💀
No matter where you go it's mostly all the same unless it's a super wealthy area. Every state has 4 or 5 cities(or more) that are crumbling and decrepit no matter what direction...
@@pspearsvideos3808 yup exactly
@@FLINTmitten810belle glade and pahokee dem two different type of worlds but for the rest charlotte getting active w all dem city’s
What are the worst Streets/Hoods in Gastonia/Kannappolis im new to charlotte
Gastonia and Kannappolis is not Charlotte bro..
I’m from Charlotte born and raised here. What you showing now ain’t nothing to how it use to be!!
charlotte soft asf
Just a normal day in Charlotte. Dad was transferred to Charlotte in JAN 1970. It was a sleepy southern town.....still had Blue Laws. In 2001 I escaped Charlotte. But in 2019 we returned for a funeral. We stayed in a 'good' area eastside. When leaving we were attacked by a LARGE homeless man. We escaped again but almost had to run down a person in self defense. Eastway Dr is still in the good side of town....try 'Beattie For Roo' next time.
Out of control? Hoods??? Charlotte NC is probably the safest large city in the USA.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 wow that was a stupid comment to say, not even close. The murder rate alone. It takes a serious lack of knowledge to say something like that. Go read some analysis on crime and come back please!
You definitely drunk for this comment….there was 11 murders in march alone here in Charlotte
5:28 did he chase you down? some people are full crazy.
