Not a Joburger, but I love our country. I really appreciate these honest videos that don't just focus on crime and economic issues. Because, in reality, I think most of us take a lot of things in South Africa for granted. Our people, culture, morals and freedom of expression for example. Proud to be South African. 🇿🇦
I appreciate what White people have done for the country. As White South Africans you have the capacity to be more connected than ever. Ensuring your own collective prosperity first is morally right and will posthaste ensure overflow of abundance for nonWhite others. Love from America.
hello. How danger is it? Im considering a job there that pays 600K rand a year but i dont know if that is enough for a good and confortable life and im worried with security. Im from europe. What is your opinion?
@@THEMRblackboy7thst Not sure what your monthly take home pay (after tax) would be since you're not S.African. But there are many middle class suburbs that are relatively safe, or you could live in a secure complex or estate. Johannesburg is a much bigger city than many people realise and there are many residential options. And a comfortable lifestyle and many things to do. There is crime, but if you stay away from the dodgy areas, you should be fine.
@THEMRblackboy7thst As long as you don't live in Central Joburg, you should be fine. If you plan on buying/ renting a car, go for low risk vehicles. I worked in Joburg CBD & Parktown for over 15 years , never had any incident. Also, R600k is a good salary as to afford a pretty comfortable life here.
@haseenah2923 I lived there from 1999-2008...still have so many memories and I learnt a lot about life while there...I guess I was growing up that time and still learning a lot about life and things. Where are u originally from?

As a European, coming to a left hand drive country with most traffic lights not working, I am finding it limits my option of getting around. Opted out of hiring a car. Would love to be able to use public transport other than Gautrain. It gets you closer to local people too.
South Africa used to have many trams and desirable, safe, public transport and such before. Car centrism was really a proletariat revolt against Baron Railroad Monopolies. The degradation of White infrastructure and White built environments, stems from the otherflow of nonWhite use and their lack of appreciation, maintenance, and order. I wouldn't expect an bird to build a beehive. Or Indians to build what Chinese built. When the ignorant city liberals voted to end Apartheid, 80% believed they were genuinely the majority population of the land... because they never saw black outside their nice houseworkers and field laborers... they refused to acknowledge their nature and visit the bantustans firsthand and instead hide in palatial homes and stay in the safety and order in a gorgeous built environment they constructed for themselves. I can understand how people who have never had this standard of living would be jealous... but many Whites sent to college failed to acknowledge race and its role in nation and to honor what their ancestors had constructed for them and Africa. Our duty is to lift up the world. Not everyone can be the leader... but we must lift ourselves up first...
Ok was a bit skeptical...This was positive I must say am surprised....I have subscribed pls don't disappoint me like the others...we want positivity all the way, really enjoyed😊
I traveled to Johannesburg last year, and stayed in Parkhurst & and Faerie Glen. It was like heaven for me as a Black American. I had zero problems and residents of all races welcomed me. The South Africa crime thing is overblown by American media. I never forget bringing up that issue with a young Afrikaaner on a Gautrain bus in Sandton. He was dressed in a suit going to work. I said Joburg has a reputation of being dangerous. He's like huh? What reputation Sure there's some dodgy areas to avoid, but everywhere is like that. Let people continue to fear South Africa. That just means more opportunity for people like me that want to invest in that country at bargain rates.
Been staying in Gordonsbay for 18 YEARS. Lovely people, and made lots of friends. Now back in Joyburg living in a complex, and have the most considerate and friendly, helping people around me in the 3 years I've been back.. Remember a smile costs us nothing. 💛
My friend, you are so young that to us a pile of shit that is central JHB was 1000% better on its worst days when it resembled New York during the 70's and 80's than you think is its best. That place, I lived in Hillbrow was at the pinnacle of high society living, if you wanted to live anywhere near the JBD, you will have to be very rich, I remember night cleaners washing pavements, mowing lawns, doing road works, AT NIGH so when day comes, 04:30 in the morning when delivery trucks offloaded, fresh fruit an vegetables off loaded, you could smell the freshly baked bread in the crispness of the very cold winter mornings. When flower markets were setting up, Montana in Hillbrow sold Rotisserie Chickens all night, News Paper sellers taking up positions, men dressed in Armani Suits disappearing into skyscrapers, when the JSE was still in the Glass building at 17 Diagonal Street, when JHB was the Financial Capital of Africa and arguably the whole Southern Hemisphere. When you could could smell money everywhere. The place was awash with the rich, there where expensive cars everywhere, I was a 19 year old Policeman in JHB, it was routine to find a 15/16 year old teenager driving around in his fathers Ferrari or Porche. When Andre Stander was the most wanted person in South Africa. When Boobs, San Lorenzo and these Night Clubs charged R50 a head on a Saturday night in the early 80's, can you imagine that today, it will be R5000 (help somebody with exact figures) When there was a Police Unit called "Murder & Robbery" stationed at Brixton that was the elite in capturing the few stupid people who had the balls to point a gun at anybody. When I did a Night Shift in Newlands Police Station 90% of all our complains was Noise disturbance, domestic arguments and we only had 10% of other crimes happening, petty theft, house breaking, car accidents, shop lifting, drunk/drinking in public, and you could still get a good 2 hours Kip behind the America Roadhouse. No my friend, what you are seeing today, or you think is good, is NOTHING what it it once was, all the money has left with the white people it is in Sandton, Midrand, and off to Cape Town, etc. and now they are setting their sites on those places, soon to be turned into another Shithole of embarrassment of uneducated criminals who let their own people starve to death, at NO point in History before the ANC took over, were these people so poor so hungry than they are now!, I weep for them, only if we gave them a share in Politics back then we could have saved everybody this pathetic government. You can see the ache in the eyes of the old people, they still remember when it was still safe even in townships, it was safe and clean, and 90% of people had a job, the trains from Soweto to JHB was jampacked with commuters, everybody nicely dressed with their hand bags on their way to WORK! And it now all GONE!, forever. All you can do now is pack your little bag and move to the Western Cape, which is probably to late in any case, Whitey has bought up every single inch of the WC, and the prices are rising by the millisecond.
Ek stem heeltemal saam! Ek onthou nog die dae, waar met my vrou 8 uur in die aand alleen deur die strate van die Johannesbuegse middestad gestap het van winkel tot winkel … sondet om gemolestert te word. Ek steem saam, Johannesburg van vandag stink en is vuil - dit maar net Afrika en swart en sonder toekoms … Goed, dat ek Suid Afrika alreeds in 1982 verlaat het: my hart sou seker breek, as ek die middestad in sy aktuele toestand moet kon sie…
Thanks for the insight...I grew up in Africa but lived in SA from 1999-2008 and have many memories of it upto today....SA was a dream destination and there were a lot of talks about it before I went there but SA had taught me a lot about life in many ways...
Well said, and so True my friends son Born in Scotland was in the SAP. Killed in Hillbrow shooting. They went back to Scotland after that. Joburg looks like a S@*t hole now. I worked for The Star Newspaper sold my guns and went back to UK. 🇬🇧 1979. Got £1 for R1.70 have you seen the exchange rate now ??? R23.4 to £1 crazy 👎👎 My mates son was Scott Samuels did you know him ???.
I lived in Hillbrow (Kapteijn Street) in 1983-84, during Apartheid, and worked at the Carlton Hotel. The country back then, and also Jo'burg were pretty boring to me. Everything was closed on sunday, even the movie theaters. There wasnt much going on on weekends. Being used to the vibrant life in Berlin, Germany, I left again after a year. I was surprised at how negatively the media in Germany reported about RSA when I came back. Most of what was reported was untrue. It was quite an experience for me at age 19 and something I will never forget.
Howzit Bru? I’m Canadian and have had the privilege of visiting your country twice (for 3 weeks in 2019 and 11 days last year).Both trips were awesome and hoping to return in ‘26. Great to see a positive story about it too. Funny thing, in Capetown they told me to be careful in Joburg as it’s really hectic. In Josie, they laughed when i told them that and said Capetown is way more dangerous. 😂 Regional rivalry?
I’m actually coming out next week to Johannesburg for work and even though I’ve been there 15 times or more, I always read the latest security information. thanks for the great tips. Great UA-cam video.
Thoughts on a female traveling alone? I have a few friends who want me to visit them out there but I’m extremely skeptical flying by myself. I’ve traveled to sketchy places in South America but it was easier to blend for I speak Spanish. I appreciate your feedback on your experience!
Jo,burg is hypnotic My family was there in the 70,s and 80,s living in Hillbrow they said it was the best place on earth that time. grtz from Holland,....baije dankie.
Dont go to Hillbrow at all now... You will most certainly be mugged and will never be heard from again. Sadly, crime is out of control with useless mayor and incompetent police.
I was at Johannesburg CBD and I have to say the place is flooded by illegal immigrants and pollution. One incident I won't ever forget was seeing a Zimbabwean woman throw her pee on the street instead of a toilet 😢. I think those are the main problems in johannesburg and if they can fix that the honestly JOHANNESBURG might just be the best city ever❤.
Well this makes it even more bittersweet... the cultural richness and amazing and inspirational energy that lurks all over the country that doesn't get to fully bloom... what a powerhouse of a country south africa could be if it weren't for the utter and complete political incompetence and corruption and demented violence happening in the country...
Looks like I’m one of the only ones that doesnt live here or been here haha. Was just curious as an American I didn’t know much at all about your country. Looks like an awesome place!
first of all: unequality of income is NO problem - only for anticapitalist/left wing who are RESPONSIBLE FOR MOST poverty due to permanently using such ideological measure. what is better: having 5 poor people (= very equal) or 3 rich and just 2 poor people? which society is better for real humans? yep, the second one. and the second one is also better for the people who have less. believing into such ideological measures is already ONE problem why some countries dont prosper. you are guilty as well by spreading such ideological measuring (which measures just 'envy ness')! people like YOU are part of the (real) problem! one has to make life for everyone better, raise the general standard, NOT to take away from the ones who have more = main reason why 100% of all socialist countries failed (and they are also together with islam most antisemitic/antizionist racist nazis). south africa has indeed a problem, BECAUSE they vote permanently for such parties (which are also the most corrupt ones). and this is a failure of everyone without any exception who did that.
I'm so conflicted, my friend lives in Krugersdorp and she says that she just wants to get out of there. Maybe it's just the area? But every time I travel back to SA I don't see or experience issues. I only experience really caring people and although they're cautious. I just see them living their lives. I dunno, perhaps it's just her situation and perspective. I love SA and I'm from Jozi, Mzanzi and I've always felt at home there. Confused 😕
Jozi was my first experience of a truly Pan Afrikan city. I am looking forward to going to Nairobi next… l thrive for diversity Lovely video and take on this wonderful city and l agree with your sentiments 🫶🏾🇿🇼
Thank you so much for informations and for sharing your video. I watch your video from Canada. I will go visit this beautiful city. Thank you again 😁👍🏽
Not sure how honest this is. I know you’ve caveated and warned about safety but it’s not responsible to portray it as anything but dangerous Tourists from Europe / US will be very naive to the threats 😢 Breaks my heart, I grew up in jnb and will always love SA but would never recommend JNB to anyone.
I think it might be better for me to go back to Poland if I only learned the language . But still, U.S.A is my adopted home, even if I was born there. I feel more comfortable if I lived with the Native Americans.
God gave me the name of this city in the middle of the night I had no idea where it was. What continent what country So I looked it up It says that it looks like a beautiful city However God is showing me that his chosen who he has called by his name He wants them to flee from the city He is not pleased with how the people of this beautiful city have forgotten the poor They have made idols out of their wealth And most of all forgotten him He wants the all of the people of this city to change and repent from their ways and come back to their first love, which is him If not, the alternative is judgment and this great city he will remove himself from. It will be great no more. Jesus🔑
Joburg did not exist before colonialism. Literally created around gold mines Apartheid was the legal system implemented to suppress the non whites and segregate society. Read a history book…

I live in Durban but traveled to every major City in South Africa and without a doubt Joburg represents the true reflection of South Africa.
I wasn't born in Jozi but have been living here for over 20 years and I love it.

Exactly very diverse, every corner have a shopping centre in Joburg, and better public transportation (Gautrain)

Beautiful, I was there last month, Maboneng, Maropeng , Mapetla , Orlando , Hillbrow and a few other places, absolutely Amazing experience!
Why was it amazing?

Just be honest, with a Gini coefficient of 63.00, South Africa is the most unequal country in the world and Johannesburg is the best example of that
first of all: unequality of income is NO problem - only for anticapitalist/left wing who are RESPONSIBLE FOR MOST poverty due to permanently using such ideological measure. what is better: having 5 poor people (= very equal) or 3 rich and just 2 poor people? which society is better for real humans? yep, the second one. and the second one is also better for the people who have less. believing into such ideological measures is already ONE problem why some countries dont prosper. you are guilty as well by spreading such ideological measuring (which measures just 'envy ness')! people like YOU are part of the (real) problem! one has to make life for everyone better, raise the general standard, NOT to take away from the ones who have more = main reason why 100% of all socialist countries failed (and they are also together with islam most antisemitic/antizionist racist nazis). south africa has indeed a problem, BECAUSE they vote permanently for such parties (which are also the most corrupt ones). and this is a failure of everyone without any exception who did that.

Great video, do some African food
I am spiritual man a lot of people you can come for your problems came your problems and see changes
Thanks ✅
Why it looks like oslo wide streets low density of ppl
Well said man
Not from Johannesburg.. born and bred in Gqeberha..I've lived in Johannesburg for uni..Johannesburg is not my cup of tea but a great place to study.
Not sure how honest this is. I know you’ve caveated and warned about safety but it’s not responsible to portray it as anything but dangerous
Tourists from Europe / US will be very naive to the threats 😢
Breaks my heart, I grew up in jnb and will always love SA but would never recommend JNB to anyone.
no way i grew up in kensington and walked the streets of jhb wen i was 8 years old ao 1978 then it was safe
I might be there next year for a few weeks in April I’ve heard it still a lovely place just gotta watch your back abit
Sick content!
Wow this video made me consider just for a second to visit. I won’t but well played to you sir.
Notwithstanding all the social challenges, I prefer Joburg to Cape Town. CT is too touristic for me.
Lekka place to jol in the 80's.
I think it might be better for me to go back to Poland if I only learned the language . But still, U.S.A is my adopted home, even if I was born there. I feel more comfortable if I lived with the Native Americans.
Johannesburg, birthplace of District 9.
God gave me the name of this city in the middle of the night
I had no idea where it was. What continent what country
So I looked it up
It says that it looks like a beautiful city
However
God is showing me that his chosen who he has called by his name
He wants them to flee from the city
He is not pleased with how the people of this beautiful city have forgotten the poor
They have made idols out of their wealth
And most of all forgotten him
He wants the all of the people of this city to change and repent from their ways and come back to their first love, which is him
If not, the alternative is judgment and this great city he will remove himself from. It will be great no more.
Jesus🔑
Please, always watch your back.
Thank you, sir.

a millennial video. Stock footage and narration that sounds like it's made by AI. 6 minutes wasted.
Your descriptions of "diverse culture" and "colorful tapestries" are so vague and meaningless. Joburg does not look prosperous. Id rather be in Japan.
Oh. So he is obliged to mention every group and their percentages by phased timing?
I'm going to guess that you are a Leo.

I would not live in any city where I couldn’t send my 10-year-old daughter down the street to run an errand.

Never had positive experiences with white south africans esp here in Australia.
Joburg is the best city in the world.

I can only imagine how Johannesburg was before colonization, which brought in crime and violence. I think you call it apartheid. Just keeping it 💯
Its a free country fool. Native Africans havent done anything marvelous for centuries.
Joburg did not exist before colonialism. Literally created around gold mines
Apartheid was the legal system implemented to suppress the non whites and segregate society. Read a history book…

No different than a big city in the USA
When I look at videos of South African cities I always think the same thing.
Name a city in the USA with 50% unemployment. Guess what, you can't because it doesn't exist
Whites feel same in southern Africa as we feel in USA that is unsafe
