Colorado native of 40yrs. My family and I are leaving and moving to South Carolina in a few months. Can not wait to get out of here. I’ll always have the memories of what once was an amazing place to live.
@@masonkanterbury3007 hey Mason!!! It’s absolutely beautiful and a slower paced way of living. People genuinely seem more joyful and relaxed and happy. We’re in Summerville. Within an hour of the beach and close enough to amenities we want for shopping etc but it’s also got a rural feel. Best decision. Check it out!
Yeah. I left Colorado for South Carolina twenty five years ago. Biggest mistake of my life. Greenville-Spartanburg is a hole. My neighborhood is now overrun with illegals, homelessness, ghetto bangers, stray, neglected, and abused pets, and crime. Crumbling, congested, trash-strewn roads, soulless, ex-urban, tract home developments in varying stages of decay. Tons of slave wage jobs. But hey, we’ve got a downtown ballpark, and Unity Park. Yay.
I was born in Colorado and spent majority of life in Denver. Moved to Melbourne Florida 4 years ago and here i am watching both your videos! Melbourne is so nice and quiet compared.
How is Melbourne? Is it hard to meet people in a "small town"/small metro area like the Space Coast? I've been wanting to move to Melbourne/Space Coast for a while
@@brentlee8085 I've lived in 3 places, Citrus County, FL, Pompano Beach, FL and now Denver. Best places was Citrus County, friendliest people, but then again I spent the first 10 years there, but I remember making tons of friends was easy there and the minute I moved to South Florida that suddenly became super difficult and SoFlo people are super rude. Denver is kinda inbetween Citrus County and South Florida in terms of people. They aren't great but they aren't horrible.
I still love Conifer Colorado. Evergreen Co is lost to the yuppies and they are rude. The traffic getting down from Stone Mountain is a mile long every morning. People who live in Evergreen are either really stupid or they got an inheritance.
I left Denver for Fargo back in August. I have always loved Denver, but after my car was attempted stolen twice in the last year alone, I took it as a sign to leave. North Dakota gets bitter cold in the winter, but life is easier(imo) and much more reasonably priced here.
Simple life is sounding good these days. Technology was creeped into my life and I hate being dependent on it because it isn't reliable more than my abilities.
I live in Aurora, right next to Denver. All the crime, traffic, high rent, and other problems spill over from Denver. I wish we could build a wall between our city and Denver.
I lived in Denver in the early 2000's. There were tons of homeless folks living there even then. Mainly they lived in the downtown Denver area. My understanding from friends still living there is it's gotten worse and worse. Denver was a beautiful place and it would be a shame if it turned into San Francisco, Portland, LA and other cities who's politicians do nothing to address and correct the issues. The southern border situation is a shit show and it was during the last administration too. Our politicians in Washington are a joke no matter what side of the isle you're on. They are all self serving, corrupt, useless douche bags. I'm all for immigration if it's done legally. But to let floods of people in because we can't lock the border down is insanity. Cities and governments need to get much tougher on these issues that are ruining so many cities and states...The only way to fix this issue is to vote out these useless politicians.
Wrong!!!! The southern border was more controlled under the Trump administration and even though the border under Obama was a crap show it was more under control than it is now. The democrats WANT immigration illegal or otherwise Jerry Nadler said so because even though there are seven million working age citizen men in America who are not working, they are NOT looking so Nadler thinks the ten million illegals who swarmed here are a good thing?? Why not require people who sit at home and don’t look for work get their rears out and do a job? But democrats think it better to bring in the dregs of humanity to keep America going? Nah….democrats know that if they give illegals some of your money and my money so they can survive they will be slaves to the democrats and vote for……wait for it….DEMOCRATS!!
I can tell you the homeless in early 00s was nothing like it is now. There used to be a bum or a tent here and there back then, compared to now it wasnt a lot aside from certain areas, but after legalization it was like a city full of bums, dirty hippies and illegals all came here on a train and got dropped off in what seemed like over night. In regards to the homeless, especailly if you include illegals, Denver is unrecognizable vs the 00's. It's insane how many tent cities with trash everywhere there are now, practically under every bridge down town, that along with panhandlers and people trying to wash your windows or sell you something are on damn near every corner now
@@robroskey65151000% agreed. Federal in 2010 was walkable and you saw a homeless every now and than. Now its thousands of homeless and thousands of scummy import South Americans porque no sirven para nada.
That’s the huddling guy, there are dancers who are migrants who flood that spot stone mid 2023. Either you haven’t been to that intersection in a couple of years or you’re lying about what’s happening on that corner these days.
Having visited Denver in the past, I can attest to the insanity of the city and surrounding areas. It is truly becoming lawless, with open air drug use and migrants flooding the city they are setting themselves up for something terrible this spring and summer, and probably beyond.
I live in Grand Junction now and it's getting bad here too. Drugs and homeless, low paying jobs, higher than hell costs. Corrupt cops, the list goes on.
The cities suck, but rural Colorado is fairly safe and sound. A year ago, my family and I left Denver, specifically Aurora, to find safety. We weren't a minute too soon.
@@pamelawoodall5891I heard it's here in Tennessee too. Not in my rural area (yet) BUT if we allow this crap to invade our towns and cities- it will be
If Denver is not careful, it's going to end up being the next Portland. I went there in May of last year and all you smell is clouds of dope smoke everywhere you go and if you're sensitive to it and you get migraines, it's a real pain in the ass.
Denver used to make me happy, now it makes me angry, so I left, now I’m happy again. If I had to choose between San Francisco, Portland, or Denver? Let’s just say I’m not picking Denver, but hey, one persons paradise is another’s hell.
Don't forget the smell of P and folks having a hot sht in front of busy restaurants and forget the cops showing up I live in University Park ..the substation of the Denver 🐖 pin district 3 isn't even a mile away and never show up to enforce the law...University. students race up and down University ave..and nothing is done to stop it..a few months ago as we walked our pets we found at least 2 handfuls of ammunition on th3 sidewalk ...it's really bad thesedays..
Still tons of traffic lol seriously though it looks worse everyday here. The migrants in parking lots is very real sadly and spreading deep to every Walmart near Denver even in Littleton for example
I've lived in Denver for 20 years and I really want to leave. Everything is too expensive and meeting people is not easy. As a 29 year old, Denver makes me feel like I'm going to die alone.
Alameda & santa fe and many other similar intersections now have 4-5 guys trying to wash your windows for $. Some times when you say "no" they spray your windshield and walk away.
So I work in downtown Denver. About two streets away from where I am working we see buses every day. Sometimes four buses, sometimes six buses every day, dropping off illegals at a business and then there are smaller vehicles there to pick them up of course after they get their information for voting, and they drop them off throughout Colorado. The Democrats have destroyed the state of Colorado. This is happening every day.
That doesn’t change how bad it is, is it? Look I’m not trying to deny it’s beautiful but we can’t deny the ugly I invite every local like myself to protest for a change.. instead of protesting for the death of a criminal or woman rights that always been there.. let’s start doing a change towards the stuff that matters
Yep in order it's crime, cost of living (and dealing with cartel land lords in general), and homeless people aka crime. "Homeless isn't crime" weird how there's always a spike in crime around where homeless people are. I can't park my car literally anywhere in public without like break ins and stuff. Try to take an uber and they're basically threatening you for tips the entire ride. The police do nothing. They didn't even investigate a live bomb threat at my office building or someone firing a shotgun in a bank parking lot I reported with evidence. Landlords basically keep all security features broken and then just auction off your car at every "luxury" apartment. The buildings are secured with plastic electronic locks that default to unlocked when bashed open, and then they just leave them broken for months at a time. Basically anyone can just walk into any apartment or steal a car for free and nobody will ever investigate it. You try and go out for a walk and there's homeless people bothering you and then they see where you live and stuff. Go to the park and there's needles on the ground. I understand people being down on their luck and it doesn't automatically make them bad, but then one person just starts attracting more people and they generate an insane amount of trash for not having anything. And then they're sitting around bored at night which leads to seeing what they can steal from cars and stuff nearby. Really the worst part is you don't know if someone is walking up to you asking for money or they're just going to stab you because they're high. Or they start screaming and get into an angry rage suddenly. Imagine taking a 10% chance of that happening on every single person you see outside and trying to walk with your kids or something. The direct Denver area is otherwise kind of cool with a nice layout and walkable things to do, which would be fun if you could actually go in public. The light rail and buses are pretty cool. But they're just hotspots for violent crime. Once you get further out it's just very quickly endless seas of asphalt roads and parking lots. Infinitely spreading suburbs with boring copy pasted houses with nothing to do for 10 miles. Any location that ISN'T that is flooded with homeless people being a bother. Again even if you're fine with suburbs and will just drive wherever, you can't park anywhere because your car will get stolen. BTW pan handling isn't JUST a nuisance. These guys are running up to you at very busy intersections shuffling in their pockets. Don't know if they have a gun or what. Demanding your attention while someone could be sneaking up on the other side of your car. So you rush getting out of there, directly into 4 kids sharing 1 scooter who are going too fast on the sidewalk with obstructed vision . It's like a circus with not only traffic, but pedestrians, bikers, and scooters. It's like they're trying to get hit. Add in pan handlers and it's a miracle I haven't heard of this happening yet on the news as far as I've seen.
I’ve been reading more about this stuff recently and I’m amazed that my car wasn’t jacked the few times I parked in downtown. Car theft capital of the U.S.
That intersection at Santa Fe and Alameda is always overrun with migrants. I’ve lived in Co for nearly 50 years and I love this place. My brother in law died last year of a fentanyl OD, I hear gunshots nearly every time I go downtown, and I’ve seen people attacked for supporting a political candidate. I don’t understand this place anymore. I’m so done with the abandonment of reason in favor of emotion. Give me back logic in politics.
Now the illegals have taken over there and when the light turns red they are all over the cars trying to wash people's windows for money, it's also affecting the traffic there.
I moved to Colorado to get away from California. Apparently a bunch of people from my state had the same idea. Unfortunately for all of us, unlike me they brought the politics with them.
Had lived in Denver metro since 2007 and city of Denver in newer section on the northeast side since 2015. Denver is an s-hole city and that’s on the city policy makers and leadership. Sold the house and moved back to my sensible Midwest state and city 2 months ago. Much much better. The ominous music during the drive bys later in the video 😂 fitting.
@@ChrisHarden i doubt that many as well but Denver was unique in a way that they had all this vacant land land to develop. Also keep in mind you also have the strip of land to the east towards dia that was annexed when the airport was built that has also been developed.
Denver became overpopulated when we legalized marijuana, everybody and their mama came from across the country for it. Not to mention Denver and its surrounding cities have had illegals coming here for decades and now it's dirty, over populated, pothole riddled, traffic nightmares with homeless people everywhere.
Even in smaller towns 30ish minutes away are seeing a rise in crime. In my town, in my neighborhood; there has been a spike in car theft. My dad was walking around and spooked a guy scouting out cars. I blame the California exodus, this all started when they came over. They Californiaed our mile-high state.
Colorado's appeal is it is libertarian society. That seems to have changed over recent the years. Our freedom has faded away but the reputation has not.
I moved to Denver metro in 1988 for a job. I now live about 35 miles east of Denver on the high plains, moved here in 2006. I avoid going into town unless I absolutely have to. It isn't the same area it was 30+ years ago. Looking to leave the state now that I'm retired.
OK…..taking in the negatives of Denver as reported here, I knew what the answer would be……..Denver has been controlled by Democrats since 1963……61 years……I assume Denver became a sh**thole many years ago. And further research reveals Denver is one of the top places people are moving OUT OF. Let’s hope they change their voting habits when they settle in a more sensible city.
Good let them move out. It means I have a possibility of owning a home. I am fortunate to have a family to stay with but danm I can't even afford rent with out living with roomates.
"Vote BLUE - No Matter Who!" - said the signs downtown. I left Canada in the nick of time. IUt was Feb.3 1984 for Dallas, TX, then left that smelly frying pan for Denver (suburb) on Jan. 1, 2000 (Y2K Day), and downtown was still OK if one didn't wander far from 16th Street Mall. Now, 24 years later, I'm back in Canada-Lite, Colorado. Seriously though, bad as it's gotten here, go to Toronto for a couple weeks every 2 years, and you'll come back here with at least hope that it's not too late. Might even kiss the ground.
Very generalized & misleading. Yes Denver has issues like any other large city. Realestate prices are increasing for a reason & no Denver does not have negative growth. There's are a few neighborhoods that should be avoided but genearally Denver as a big city has lots to offer.
Nobody's selling fentynal laced weed especially without telling the buyer. Fent is way more expensive per dose and isn't even very active if you dust your flower with it.
For the past month of January, I’ve seen Denver become more tame during my Lyft drives. There are far less homeless people and migrants on the streets as far as I can see. I think the cold weather drove them out. I never welcomed cold winter so much.
Alameda "Ala-Mee-Dah" .... and that intersection is often filled with aggressive Venezuelan Attack Window Washers....Denver is a Sanctuary City.... it's problematic. The Denver Leadership is far far left... we are paying for it. One thing you fail to mention is "Denver" the city ...is 713K population. The Denver Metro (including Denver, Aurora, Lakewood, Littleton, Golden, Commerce City ...and a few others ... the Population of the Denver Metro area is almost 3 Million (so 713K is a bit deceptive). Yes, a lot of people are fleeing, but there is still a housing shortage.... one thing you did nail is what legalized pot has done to Colorado. It started all the garbage that has murdered the way of life here.
Denver isnt that bad. Every scene from other places rarely have and real Blue in them. Sun is a big part of here. It also has Interstate rebuilt s, a fairly good transit system now. An Airplane system that rivals. Hills that talk the talk. Its not to shabby.
Denver has seriously declined since the 80’s, our roads are terrible, transit system is a joke, cost of living is outrageous, crime has significantly increased, air quality is terrible. Only good thing about Denver is the exists out of it to much nicer parts of the state
With all due respect, Denver Native here, what you report is true.. though, to keep this video honest, it should be known that most of the footage you're showing is in areas that have always been predominately poor and industrial from waaaay back.. Colorado for Trump! 🇺🇸❤️💯
My Son lived in Denver and then Centennial about 12-15 years ago when it was growing crazy fast, and it was a really good place to live , if you had a good job. Real estate was so crazy he sold his Ranch house for cash after a bidding war , and someone bought it out from under buyers who were getting a mortgage.
Colorado is 26th in overdose deaths nationwide, so, yeah, legal weed isn't making things worse. It's probably making things better. Where weed isn't legal, overdose deaths are higher-West Virginia, Tennessee, Louisiana and Kentucky have four of the top 5 overdose death rates, along with D.C. As for a Detroit-like future of abandoned homes, don't count on it. Denver long ago wisely diversified it's boom-and-bust economy, taking advantage of its location as the largest city in the inland west. It's a money-printing hub of research, airline travel, hospitals, tech, media, finance and federal government. Those houses you drove by in Baker (8:25) are all $1 million-plus. It's also interesting to note that Denver's highest percentage of growth was between 1990 and 2000, long before marijuana was legalized. I enjoy your drives and am looking forward to #18, when you hit my neighborhood (Wash Park).
Agreed. Trying to connect the legalization of cannabis and the current state of SOME parts of Denver is a bit of a stretch. Also, pretty convenient of your argument to completely overlook the 1.6 billion dollars brought into the state from tax revenue and fees from the cannabis industry alone from 2015 up to 2021. A good portion of which went to funds for construction of new buildings, education, etc. Denver isn't suffering from liberal politics brought on by California transplants. It's suffering what every other major city is suffering from and that's the effects of unchecked Capitalism: real estate bubble, opioid epidemic (pharma), people fleeing to cheaper states etc.
It was a great place to live for a long while. I used to always say I would never live anywhere else. I think a lot of these issues are a growing problem that will continue to get worse everywhere in the country. There are a number of reasons. I remember a time when people would leave their garage open all night and their front door unlocked while they slept, in the Denver metro area too. Also, one thing needs to be said. The people in charge of rules, laws, housing, the forceforce, all of that, they know bad things are getting, and it's not that they are oblivious to what is going on, they know exactly what is going on, everything is going exactly how they want it to go. It is not Democrat VS Republican, it is people who have taken over control a few decades ago and they have an agenda to push towards. They've done it slow enough that people just get used to the change and submit to them, and then the new generation comes along and it is all they know, so they have even less of a problem with the changes, they'll slowly ease us into a life that is going to be terribly difficult for all of us in the US.
The legal marijuana is not the problem. Meth and fentanyl is the problem. There are allot of places with no legal marijuana and much worse meth and fentanyl. Even so Meth and fentanyl is so addictive that people hooked on this stuff start stealing and become homeless.
It truly 100% sucks here in Colorado not just Denver but northern Colorado also it's too damn expensive and jobs don't pay enough and the attitude of the people here SUCKS don't move here
No kidding. I never thought I would ever be grateful to live in a fully Republican state, but boy I tell you I am thrilled. I've always been a centrist and voted for the person no matter what the party is, but you can't do that anymore. I don't know what the hell has happened to the democrats, but they have a fat lot of nerve pointing to the Republicans as being evil when they open our border to let everybody in.
@nancyoffenhiser4916 lol what "open borders?" There is an asylum exploit that people are using and time and time again democrats have put bills to speed up the process from 5 years to 6 months and Republicans shoot it down to keep it an issue. Maybe you should understand the causes and why people are rejecting the hypocrite Republican platform.
To be fair… being one of the first places to make weed readily accessible is why the cost of living has increased so drastically. During that green rush in 2010 , it was estimated that 10k per month were moving here.
I use to own 261 so Santa Fe, in 1972 Kellog was making soup back of my house, Universal Plumbing Supply cross the street, I got broken in to my home three times in two years. I sold my home to Kallog for 10K now is parking lot for the factory. Alameda and Santa Fe is not "Denver" try Cherry Creek, Cherry Hills Village try south east Denver, every city has a dump that you can live in.
The gentrification of inner city neighborhoods really took off in Atlanta. That process still continues. Downtown, midtown, the warehouse district on and on. Housing prices skyrocket as with Denver. I would say that also put a cork into Denver's growth as well.
I can totally tell you’re not even from Denver. You can’t even pronounce Alameda correctly and it’s not like you get hit up multiple times from people asking you for money you’re making it seem like it’s like that everywhere in Denver when it’s not
I see the attacking window washers like Times Square all over denver, my car window was smashed in a SE DTC suburban neighborhood, there was nothing in the car, were they hoping for garage door opener?
Just for the record. That street performer has been performing at that corner since covid. I used to see that guy all the time and would give him food and bottles of water. Because I was doing catering deliveries.
I moved to Denver in 2012. When i got here the first place I ended up was the triangle by the Denver rescue mission. Rhey were smoking drugs in the wide open not even hiding it. I came from Chicago i never seen something like that in my life. Long story short ive been in Denver now for 12 years i love Denver its way better than Chicago i don't have to worry about walking down the street and get sho at😂😂😂😂. Civic center park is on Broadway and Colfax back in 2012 you couldn't walk 2 feet over there without people asking you if you want drugs i was like wtf is that....
I lived in Denver for 25 years. South Denver. If you're any main drag expect do you have any change, do you got a smoke? Been that way for as long as I remember
You said 3,000 people left Denver? Well with the 2023 population of 716,577, that's 0.004% lol that's not really a significant or bad thing. Anywhere you park your car you're vulnerable of getting panhandled? If you're trying to get people not to move here, that's fine, but this is one of the best cities in America to live in. Maybe you should just go to better neighborhoods. Get out of Brighton or where ever you are. (your key point, "I'VE NEVER LIVED IN DENVER") Sure I've experienced theft and seen homeless. It's better than humidity, boring people, depressed "low cost of living", and despair. You have to pay to play to live in a cool area, no matter what you like/don't like. There's no easy solution, but comparing Detroit to Denver makes it clear you're just spewing garbage.
Drug overdose deaths is no way to tell how many people are using drugs, since the deaths are caused by A) stronger (more lethal) drugs being cut into the standard street drugs to sell less product for more money B) arrests and incarceration cause withdrawal intolerance which leads to overdose deaths immediately upon release and going back to the same dose they are used to.
In denver, the media tells us that Colorado has always been a blue state through history. Ive been here 50 years, most of what is heard is a lie. Theybeven call us Coloradans, how hick is thst? Im a Coloradoan and not proud of my lame duck state. The most igorant ppl live in sanctuary city.
This is the reason I quit carrying cash. I was so tired of getting asked for change. If I had the money I´d be moving from the state my family has been in since 1861.
I am a Colorado native my entire life, and from my perspective, the entire state of Colorado has fallen victim to a run on the housing market and people moving here in DROVES.... Most of which seem to not even speak English. I am not sure how they are affording housing. I know I can't make it on my own right now, here. I would move, but I have 50/50 custody of my daughter, so I can't rightly just up and leave.
So I have a friend who lives south of the border his job is to allow people to have papers so they can go work in United States work visas He says they hand them out like candy.
Tbh i just bought a house in Aurora co because thats where i grew up, i dont get involved with scenes i know can get me in trouble (clubbing, bars, etc.) I just stay out the way and i love colorado

its been full of meth heads forever same with most of the south.

I still love Conifer Colorado. Evergreen Co is lost to the yuppies and they are rude. The traffic getting down from Stone Mountain is a mile long every morning. People who live in Evergreen are either really stupid or they got an inheritance.
I left Denver for Fargo back in August. I have always loved Denver, but after my car was attempted stolen twice in the last year alone, I took it as a sign to leave. North Dakota gets bitter cold in the winter, but life is easier(imo) and much more reasonably priced here.
Simple life is sounding good these days. Technology was creeped into my life and I hate being dependent on it because it isn't reliable more than my abilities.
yeah nd is cool, i would live there in a second if they had legal weed
I worked in Fargo a few years ago , it's a pretty nice place
Oh I don't have a car
enjoy Fargo! omg.... it cracks me up how people talk about Denver like it's Gotham City
I live in Aurora, right next to Denver. All the crime, traffic, high rent, and other problems spill over from Denver. I wish we could build a wall between our city and Denver.
With respect, Aurora is a certain flavor of dump.
I lived in Denver in the early 2000's. There were tons of homeless folks living there even then. Mainly they lived in the downtown Denver area. My understanding from friends still living there is it's gotten worse and worse. Denver was a beautiful place and it would be a shame if it turned into San Francisco, Portland, LA and other cities who's politicians do nothing to address and correct the issues. The southern border situation is a shit show and it was during the last administration too. Our politicians in Washington are a joke no matter what side of the isle you're on. They are all self serving, corrupt, useless douche bags. I'm all for immigration if it's done legally. But to let floods of people in because we can't lock the border down is insanity. Cities and governments need to get much tougher on these issues that are ruining so many cities and states...The only way to fix this issue is to vote out these useless politicians.
Wrong!!!! The southern border was more controlled under the Trump administration and even though the border under Obama was a crap show it was more under control than it is now. The democrats WANT immigration illegal or otherwise Jerry Nadler said so because even though there are seven million working age citizen men in America who are not working, they are NOT looking so Nadler thinks the ten million illegals who swarmed here are a good thing?? Why not require people who sit at home and don’t look for work get their rears out and do a job? But democrats think it better to bring in the dregs of humanity to keep America going? Nah….democrats know that if they give illegals some of your money and my money so they can survive they will be slaves to the democrats and vote for……wait for it….DEMOCRATS!!
Too late it’s already turned into California
I can tell you the homeless in early 00s was nothing like it is now. There used to be a bum or a tent here and there back then, compared to now it wasnt a lot aside from certain areas, but after legalization it was like a city full of bums, dirty hippies and illegals all came here on a train and got dropped off in what seemed like over night. In regards to the homeless, especailly if you include illegals, Denver is unrecognizable vs the 00's. It's insane how many tent cities with trash everywhere there are now, practically under every bridge down town, that along with panhandlers and people trying to wash your windows or sell you something are on damn near every corner now
@@robroskey65151000% agreed. Federal in 2010 was walkable and you saw a homeless every now and than. Now its thousands of homeless and thousands of scummy import South Americans porque no sirven para nada.
Too late. The Venezuelan gangs are here . Heel they’re even in Montana now!!
I live in denver. Your facts are spot on. Thank you for the video.
Thanks for your candor!
Thanks for watching and for the support!!
The guy juggling off Santa Fe has been there for about 10+ years. I’ve talked to him and he really just does it for fun and tips were appreciated.
Agreed that was my main comment as well
That’s the huddling guy, there are dancers who are migrants who flood that spot stone mid 2023. Either you haven’t been to that intersection in a couple of years or you’re lying about what’s happening on that corner these days.
Having visited Denver in the past, I can attest to the insanity of the city and surrounding areas. It is truly becoming lawless, with open air drug use and migrants flooding the city they are setting themselves up for something terrible this spring and summer, and probably beyond.
It's sad. There's still quite a few areas in the Denver Metro that are really nice I feel like... but of course it's all expensive.
If Biden Kept The Border Closed.... Would NOT HAVE THIS MUCH PROBLEMS That What I SEE In Ever City Too
The new policies of our governor have ruined this state.
FJP
Fls
Not just him he just continued the failed ways of the past 4 governor's.
We have a systemic problem. Your demographic is worse per capita! And you don't understand causality do you?
It's all over Colorado not just Denver, it is the worst.....but it's everywhere!!!!
I live in Grand Junction now and it's getting bad here too. Drugs and homeless, low paying jobs, higher than hell costs. Corrupt cops, the list goes on.
Not in Tennessee !

The cities suck, but rural Colorado is fairly safe and sound. A year ago, my family and I left Denver, specifically Aurora, to find safety. We weren't a minute too soon.

If Denver is not careful, it's going to end up being the next Portland. I went there in May of last year and all you smell is clouds of dope smoke everywhere you go and if you're sensitive to it and you get migraines, it's a real pain in the ass.
From the outside looking in it seems like it's already Portland and heading towards being like San Francisco
Pot smoke is no worse, IMO, than tobacco and we put up with that everywhere for most of our history. Isn't that why CO decriminalized it?
Denver used to make me happy, now it makes me angry, so I left, now I’m happy again. If I had to choose between San Francisco, Portland, or Denver? Let’s just say I’m not picking Denver, but hey, one persons paradise is another’s hell.
Leave it up to liberals, it’s a broken record anywhere they’re at the wheel for any amount of time
Don't forget the smell of P and folks having a hot sht in front of busy restaurants and forget the cops showing up I live in University Park ..the substation of the Denver 🐖 pin district 3 isn't even a mile away and never show up to enforce the law...University. students race up and down University ave..and nothing is done to stop it..a few months ago as we walked our pets we found at least 2 handfuls of ammunition on th3 sidewalk ...it's really bad thesedays..
Good work Polis!

Amen…Polis and the democrats! Always voted Red always will🇺🇸✊🇺🇸✊🇺🇸✊
We left the Denver area in 2015. No regrets.
Still tons of traffic lol seriously though it looks worse everyday here. The migrants in parking lots is very real sadly and spreading deep to every Walmart near Denver even in Littleton for example
Homeowners and natives are leaving.
Migrants, Gangs, and homeless moving in mass for a while.
Thank you for this video. I live in Denver but confined to a wheelchair I get to see Denver thru your video. Thank you.
I've lived in Denver for 20 years and I really want to leave. Everything is too expensive and meeting people is not easy. As a 29 year old, Denver makes me feel like I'm going to die alone.
Alameda & santa fe and many other similar intersections now have 4-5 guys trying to wash your windows for $. Some times when you say "no" they spray your windshield and walk away.
You have an incredibly soothing voice. I look forward to your videos. Thank you for all your hard work:)
So I work in downtown Denver. About two streets away from where I am working we see buses every day. Sometimes four buses, sometimes six buses every day, dropping off illegals at a business and then there are smaller vehicles there to pick them up of course after they get their information for voting, and they drop them off throughout Colorado. The Democrats have destroyed the state of Colorado. This is happening every day.
I still live in Denver it sucks, and is disgusting!
Then move man! Or change it! Dogging the place does nothing!
Chris, you have nothing to apologize for.
Denver in decay!
He’s showing the worst parts of inner city Denver. Denver and metro suburbs are beautiful!!
That doesn’t change how bad it is, is it? Look I’m not trying to deny it’s beautiful but we can’t deny the ugly I invite every local like myself to protest for a change.. instead of protesting for the death of a criminal or woman rights that always been there.. let’s start doing a change towards the stuff that matters
Yep in order it's crime, cost of living (and dealing with cartel land lords in general), and homeless people aka crime.
"Homeless isn't crime" weird how there's always a spike in crime around where homeless people are.
I can't park my car literally anywhere in public without like break ins and stuff. Try to take an uber and they're basically threatening you for tips the entire ride. The police do nothing. They didn't even investigate a live bomb threat at my office building or someone firing a shotgun in a bank parking lot I reported with evidence.
Landlords basically keep all security features broken and then just auction off your car at every "luxury" apartment. The buildings are secured with plastic electronic locks that default to unlocked when bashed open, and then they just leave them broken for months at a time. Basically anyone can just walk into any apartment or steal a car for free and nobody will ever investigate it.
You try and go out for a walk and there's homeless people bothering you and then they see where you live and stuff. Go to the park and there's needles on the ground.
I understand people being down on their luck and it doesn't automatically make them bad, but then one person just starts attracting more people and they generate an insane amount of trash for not having anything. And then they're sitting around bored at night which leads to seeing what they can steal from cars and stuff nearby.
Really the worst part is you don't know if someone is walking up to you asking for money or they're just going to stab you because they're high. Or they start screaming and get into an angry rage suddenly. Imagine taking a 10% chance of that happening on every single person you see outside and trying to walk with your kids or something.
The direct Denver area is otherwise kind of cool with a nice layout and walkable things to do, which would be fun if you could actually go in public. The light rail and buses are pretty cool. But they're just hotspots for violent crime.
Once you get further out it's just very quickly endless seas of asphalt roads and parking lots. Infinitely spreading suburbs with boring copy pasted houses with nothing to do for 10 miles. Any location that ISN'T that is flooded with homeless people being a bother.
Again even if you're fine with suburbs and will just drive wherever, you can't park anywhere because your car will get stolen.
BTW pan handling isn't JUST a nuisance. These guys are running up to you at very busy intersections shuffling in their pockets. Don't know if they have a gun or what. Demanding your attention while someone could be sneaking up on the other side of your car. So you rush getting out of there, directly into 4 kids sharing 1 scooter who are going too fast on the sidewalk with obstructed vision . It's like a circus with not only traffic, but pedestrians, bikers, and scooters. It's like they're trying to get hit. Add in pan handlers and it's a miracle I haven't heard of this happening yet on the news as far as I've seen.
I’ve been reading more about this stuff recently and I’m amazed that my car wasn’t jacked the few times I parked in downtown. Car theft capital of the U.S.
That intersection at Santa Fe and Alameda is always overrun with migrants. I’ve lived in Co for nearly 50 years and I love this place. My brother in law died last year of a fentanyl OD, I hear gunshots nearly every time I go downtown, and I’ve seen people attacked for supporting a political candidate. I don’t understand this place anymore. I’m so done with the abandonment of reason in favor of emotion. Give me back logic in politics.
Great journalism Chris!! Just the facts.
The juggling man on Santa Fe has been there for years, I love that dude
The juggler has been at that intersection for a long time.
Now the illegals have taken over there and when the light turns red they are all over the cars trying to wash people's windows for money, it's also affecting the traffic there.
I moved to Colorado to get away from California. Apparently a bunch of people from my state had the same idea. Unfortunately for all of us, unlike me they brought the politics with them.
Spot on. I don’t recognize the city I grew up in. It’s sad.
Had lived in Denver metro since 2007 and city of Denver in newer section on the northeast side since 2015. Denver is an s-hole city and that’s on the city policy makers and leadership. Sold the house and moved back to my sensible Midwest state and city 2 months ago. Much much better.
The ominous music during the drive bys later in the video 😂 fitting.
Midwest is boring
@@lithium25693 bro is speaking facts... what do the fly over states even have?
Denver grew in the 2010's because of the redevelopment of the fmr Stapleton airport. There was room to grow now there isn't.
115,000 people live where the old Stapleton Airport was? Doubt it. That’s how much Denver grew in the 2010’s.
@@ChrisHarden i doubt that many as well but Denver was unique in a way that they had all this vacant land land to develop. Also keep in mind you also have the strip of land to the east towards dia that was annexed when the airport was built that has also been developed.
Denver became overpopulated when we legalized marijuana, everybody and their mama came from across the country for it. Not to mention Denver and its surrounding cities have had illegals coming here for decades and now it's dirty, over populated, pothole riddled, traffic nightmares with homeless people everywhere.
Since marijuana was legalized
Even in smaller towns 30ish minutes away are seeing a rise in crime. In my town, in my neighborhood; there has been a spike in car theft. My dad was walking around and spooked a guy scouting out cars. I blame the California exodus, this all started when they came over. They Californiaed our mile-high state.
This is just the beginning! I never thought it could happen to Detroit - it's just a blue state matter of time. Keep it up liberals.
Yep👏👏👏
Colorado's appeal is it is libertarian society. That seems to have changed over recent the years. Our freedom has faded away but the reputation has not.
Blue states don't exist it's Blue cities that are the issue.
Colorado has an interesting future and I don't know if Fort Collins and Colorado Springs can save it
Mass climate change migration will likely bring people to CO.
How could FOCO, save it?
I moved to Denver metro in 1988 for a job. I now live about 35 miles east of Denver on the high plains, moved here in 2006. I avoid going into town unless I absolutely have to. It isn't the same area it was 30+ years ago. Looking to leave the state now that I'm retired.
OK…..taking in the negatives of Denver as reported here, I knew what the answer would be……..Denver has been controlled by Democrats since 1963……61 years……I assume Denver became a sh**thole many years ago. And further research reveals Denver is one of the top places people are moving OUT OF. Let’s hope they change their voting habits when they settle in a more sensible city.
its all about sanctuary city, the democrats want chaos its all about vote, so vote them out and you will see change.
Good let them move out. It means I have a possibility of owning a home. I am fortunate to have a family to stay with but danm I can't even afford rent with out living with roomates.
Looks good but yes, I agree rediculously overpriced. Not much different than New England. Overpriced for very little good reason.
"Vote BLUE - No Matter Who!" - said the signs downtown. I left Canada in the nick of time. IUt was Feb.3 1984 for Dallas, TX, then left that smelly frying pan for Denver (suburb) on Jan. 1, 2000 (Y2K Day), and downtown was still OK if one didn't wander far from 16th Street Mall. Now, 24 years later, I'm back in Canada-Lite, Colorado. Seriously though, bad as it's gotten here, go to Toronto for a couple weeks every 2 years, and you'll come back here with at least hope that it's not too late. Might even kiss the ground.

Very generalized & misleading. Yes Denver has issues like any other large city. Realestate prices are increasing for a reason & no Denver does not have negative growth. There's are a few neighborhoods that should be avoided but genearally Denver as a big city has lots to offer.
Agreed. Seems like this is a biased video based on the political views of the creator.
Nobody's selling fentynal laced weed especially without telling the buyer. Fent is way more expensive per dose and isn't even very active if you dust your flower with it.
For the past month of January, I’ve seen Denver become more tame during my Lyft drives. There are far less homeless people and migrants on the streets as far as I can see. I think the cold weather drove them out. I never welcomed cold winter so much.
Where? There are homeless camping in Cherry Creek so I disagree with you.
Buses and trains filled with druggies smoking. Assaults.

Welcome to Colorful Colorado, NOW GO BACK WHERE YOU CAME FROM!!!
Alameda "Ala-Mee-Dah" .... and that intersection is often filled with aggressive Venezuelan Attack Window Washers....Denver is a Sanctuary City.... it's problematic. The Denver Leadership is far far left... we are paying for it. One thing you fail to mention is "Denver" the city ...is 713K population. The Denver Metro (including Denver, Aurora, Lakewood, Littleton, Golden, Commerce City ...and a few others ... the Population of the Denver Metro area is almost 3 Million (so 713K is a bit deceptive). Yes, a lot of people are fleeing, but there is still a housing shortage.... one thing you did nail is what legalized pot has done to Colorado. It started all the garbage that has murdered the way of life here.
Lol, I actually used to work at the Buckhorn Exchange and its history is an adventure and a place that has to be experienced.
Sanctuary city.
600,000 dollars will get you a 100 year old 800 square foot house with a basement.
That you repair daily.
Been wanting to leave for years. Gonna make that happen as soon as I find the right place.
Denver isnt that bad. Every scene from other places rarely have and real Blue in them. Sun is a big part of here. It also has Interstate rebuilt s, a fairly good transit system now. An Airplane system that rivals. Hills that talk the talk. Its not to shabby.
Denver has seriously declined since the 80’s, our roads are terrible, transit system is a joke, cost of living is outrageous, crime has significantly increased, air quality is terrible. Only good thing about Denver is the exists out of it to much nicer parts of the state
Obviously, never lived in Denver
The jugglers on Alameda and Santa Fe are great!
With all due respect, Denver Native here, what you report is true.. though, to keep this video honest, it should be known that most of the footage you're showing is in areas that have always been predominately poor and industrial from waaaay back..
Colorado for Trump! 🇺🇸❤️💯
I got so many political ads of weird election measures and proposals in Colorado. Denver must be turning into a land of lunatics.
My Son lived in Denver and then Centennial about 12-15 years ago when it was growing crazy fast, and it was a really good place to live , if you had a good job. Real estate was so crazy he sold his Ranch house for cash after a bidding war , and someone bought it out from under buyers who were getting a mortgage.
Colorado is 26th in overdose deaths nationwide, so, yeah, legal weed isn't making things worse. It's probably making things better. Where weed isn't legal, overdose deaths are higher-West Virginia, Tennessee, Louisiana and Kentucky have four of the top 5 overdose death rates, along with D.C. As for a Detroit-like future of abandoned homes, don't count on it. Denver long ago wisely diversified it's boom-and-bust economy, taking advantage of its location as the largest city in the inland west. It's a money-printing hub of research, airline travel, hospitals, tech, media, finance and federal government. Those houses you drove by in Baker (8:25) are all $1 million-plus. It's also interesting to note that Denver's highest percentage of growth was between 1990 and 2000, long before marijuana was legalized. I enjoy your drives and am looking forward to #18, when you hit my neighborhood (Wash Park).
Agreed. Trying to connect the legalization of cannabis and the current state of SOME parts of Denver is a bit of a stretch. Also, pretty convenient of your argument to completely overlook the 1.6 billion dollars brought into the state from tax revenue and fees from the cannabis industry alone from 2015 up to 2021. A good portion of which went to funds for construction of new buildings, education, etc. Denver isn't suffering from liberal politics brought on by California transplants. It's suffering what every other major city is suffering from and that's the effects of unchecked Capitalism: real estate bubble, opioid epidemic (pharma), people fleeing to cheaper states etc.
It was a great place to live for a long while. I used to always say I would never live anywhere else. I think a lot of these issues are a growing problem that will continue to get worse everywhere in the country. There are a number of reasons. I remember a time when people would leave their garage open all night and their front door unlocked while they slept, in the Denver metro area too.
Also, one thing needs to be said. The people in charge of rules, laws, housing, the forceforce, all of that, they know bad things are getting, and it's not that they are oblivious to what is going on, they know exactly what is going on, everything is going exactly how they want it to go. It is not Democrat VS Republican, it is people who have taken over control a few decades ago and they have an agenda to push towards. They've done it slow enough that people just get used to the change and submit to them, and then the new generation comes along and it is all they know, so they have even less of a problem with the changes, they'll slowly ease us into a life that is going to be terribly difficult for all of us in the US.
The legal marijuana is not the problem. Meth and fentanyl is the problem. There are allot of places with no legal marijuana and much worse meth and fentanyl. Even so Meth and fentanyl is so addictive that people hooked on this stuff start stealing and become homeless.
It truly 100% sucks here in Colorado not just Denver but northern Colorado also it's too damn expensive and jobs don't pay enough and the attitude of the people here SUCKS don't move here
Denver needs 50,000 more migrants !
The Party needs their glorious, revolutionary votes.
NOOO, CALIFORNIA ,IS DOUBLE THIS ISSUE
I just moved out of California. I wouldn’t go to a state with two Democratic senators like Colorado.
No kidding. I never thought I would ever be grateful to live in a fully Republican state, but boy I tell you I am thrilled. I've always been a centrist and voted for the person no matter what the party is, but you can't do that anymore. I don't know what the hell has happened to the democrats, but they have a fat lot of nerve pointing to the Republicans as being evil when they open our border to let everybody in.
Ah…identity politics.
@nancyoffenhiser4916 lol what "open borders?" There is an asylum exploit that people are using and time and time again democrats have put bills to speed up the process from 5 years to 6 months and Republicans shoot it down to keep it an issue. Maybe you should understand the causes and why people are rejecting the hypocrite Republican platform.
Vote ALL Red
Plus Governor
To be fair… being one of the first places to make weed readily accessible is why the cost of living has increased so drastically. During that green rush in 2010 , it was estimated that 10k per month were moving here.
I know every street this guy is on I live in Denver and he is exactly right it's bad here Colorado used to be beautiful
Colorado native here and I agree
I use to own 261 so Santa Fe, in 1972 Kellog was making soup back of my house, Universal Plumbing Supply cross the street, I got broken in to my home three times in two years. I sold my home to Kallog for 10K now is parking lot for the factory. Alameda and Santa Fe is not "Denver" try Cherry Creek, Cherry Hills Village try south east Denver, every city has a dump that you can live in.
Denver used to be such a nice city :(
And now its boulder 2
The formula we used to use to qualify buyers in Cleve metro was 2.5x annual income ($100k buys $250k house)
Alcohol could also be considered a gateway drug…. But Denver has always been a boom and bust city, maybe it’s just a continuation of that pattern?
True. Alcohol is worse than weed in a lot of ways. And it very well just be a phase we’re seeing in Denver. Time will tell.
Its bad here. Why lie BAD
What's up with the dashcam man? I really like the whole overlay.
The gentrification of inner city neighborhoods really took off in Atlanta. That process still continues. Downtown, midtown, the warehouse district on and on. Housing prices skyrocket as with Denver. I would say that also put a cork into Denver's growth as well.
The government's is disgusting for doing this to once beautiful safe towns
I am a Denver native and everywhere that you just showed on this video from that time in 2023 to now in 2024 it has gotten three or four times worse.
I can totally tell you’re not even from Denver. You can’t even pronounce Alameda correctly and it’s not like you get hit up multiple times from people asking you for money you’re making it seem like it’s like that everywhere in Denver when it’s not
I see the attacking window washers like Times Square all over denver, my car window was smashed in a SE DTC suburban neighborhood, there was nothing in the car, were they hoping for garage door opener?

Just for the record. That street performer has been performing at that corner since covid. I used to see that guy all the time and would give him food and bottles of water. Because I was doing catering deliveries.
the latest estimate shows a 3k increase now
I moved to Denver in 2012. When i got here the first place I ended up was the triangle by the Denver rescue mission. Rhey were smoking drugs in the wide open not even hiding it. I came from Chicago i never seen something like that in my life. Long story short ive been in Denver now for 12 years i love Denver its way better than Chicago i don't have to worry about walking down the street and get sho at😂😂😂😂. Civic center park is on Broadway and Colfax back in 2012 you couldn't walk 2 feet over there without people asking you if you want drugs i was like wtf is that....
Thank you for gentrifying the area and making them move to mine
Thats the 2 houses by Denver health in the thumbnail on 6 and bannock.I pass it every morning on the Rtd bus to work.
I lived in Denver for 25 years. South Denver. If you're any main drag expect do you have any change, do you got a smoke? Been that way for as long as I remember
You said 3,000 people left Denver? Well with the 2023 population of 716,577, that's 0.004% lol that's not really a significant or bad thing. Anywhere you park your car you're vulnerable of getting panhandled? If you're trying to get people not to move here, that's fine, but this is one of the best cities in America to live in. Maybe you should just go to better neighborhoods. Get out of Brighton or where ever you are. (your key point, "I'VE NEVER LIVED IN DENVER") Sure I've experienced theft and seen homeless. It's better than humidity, boring people, depressed "low cost of living", and despair. You have to pay to play to live in a cool area, no matter what you like/don't like. There's no easy solution, but comparing Detroit to Denver makes it clear you're just spewing garbage.
Miles and miles of bike lanes, but not one single bike rider.
🤣🤣🤣 Brilliant point!
I noticed the same thing. Social engineering.
What are you doing here, running through multiple stop signs, especially on left turns???????
Drug overdose deaths is no way to tell how many people are using drugs, since the deaths are caused by A) stronger (more lethal) drugs being cut into the standard street drugs to sell less product for more money B) arrests and incarceration cause withdrawal intolerance which leads to overdose deaths immediately upon release and going back to the same dose they are used to.
I enjoyed this video.😊❤
In denver, the media tells us that Colorado has always been a blue state through history. Ive been here 50 years, most of what is heard is a lie. Theybeven call us Coloradans, how hick is thst? Im a Coloradoan and not proud of my lame duck state. The most igorant ppl live in sanctuary city.

I am a Colorado native my entire life, and from my perspective, the entire state of Colorado has fallen victim to a run on the housing market and people moving here in DROVES.... Most of which seem to not even speak English. I am not sure how they are affording housing. I know I can't make it on my own right now, here. I would move, but I have 50/50 custody of my daughter, so I can't rightly just up and leave.
