Why Do Americans Avoid Living In This HUGE Area Of The East Coast
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 чер 2024
- Why do some places thrive with bustling city life while others remain relatively untouched? You may have noticed that Georgia, South Carolina, and North Carolina are home to only around 10 million people along their combined coastal regions. This trend stands in stark contrast to the more populous Northeastern states, including Florida. But it is when we look at the numbers and statistics more closely that we begin to see that something strange is happening in this region. So what's the reason why Americans are avoiding this huge area of the East Coast? Let's find out.
One thing that stands out when looking at state-level population figures is the contrast between the more populous Northeastern states and Florida versus the comparatively smaller populations of Georgia, South Carolina, and North Carolina. This isn't just a recent trend. The population imbalances between these regions have existed for quite some time. Despite covering more than 30% of the landmass along the East Coast, Georgia, South Carolina, and North Carolina contribute to only 15% of the region's population. When compared to the bustling Northeastern states, it's puzzling why this part of America doesn't attract more residents to its coastal areas

I don't think Americans "avoid" that area....
There's still time to take down this video. This video is insanely stupid. The weather, it was 101°F yesterday and on top of that we have this thing called humidity. Not to mention the massive surge in people moving here from states like CA, NY and UT. I'd could type paragraphs on everything wrong with this video. It's obvious to anyone from GA that whoever wrote this script has never been here. Wild. Our tourism industry is huge.
Precisely. Thank you for saving me the time. 😊
Plus the cost of living in that coastal area. That includes much higher insurance cost due the frequency of severe hurricanes. I live in East Point in Ga and believe me I’d rather live in Hilton Head.
@shane1489 that's the coast anywhere there is one. It's always going to cost more. The cost of living in Atlanta is so high, people are moving south down I-75. It's cheaper doing the 2 hour+ back and forth commute to work everyday. The growth and development has skyrocketed.
This video sounds like someone instructed AI to search Wikipedia and write a script.
@@nonegiven3144 True, I work in Henry county and apartment building are popping up like mushrooms after the rain.
Okay okay let me say something as a lifelong resident of coastal NC. These areas flood and constantly harassed by hurricanes. But the biggest reason it’s not so heavily populated is because the coastal areas sold out for tourism.
Many of the views in this video are obviously not from the part of the east coast under discussion. There are no mountains there or any of the rocky shorelines shown. You won’t see any of that until you reach the New England coast. This is indeed “Insane” curiosity.
As a native North Carolinian, I remember my childhood going to the Outer Banks. Very little growth and sparse housing. Went back 10 years or so ago and you couldn't see the ocean or the sound going up to the Corolla light for all the houses and developments in the way. Sadly doesn't sound like avoiding to me.
Please lose the disjointed music.
Wouldn't being less populated be a good thing?
It's a FANTASTIC THING!!!
We DON'T avoid it.
We live here, and love it here!!
Y'all come visit... OPERATIVE TERM, "visit".
Ah lots of Americans live here💁
Most “avoid” that area because it’s expensive to live on any coast.
Depends on the elevation altitude, when the ice caps finally melt sea level will rise 200 feet. As it's raised 33,000 feet over the last 10,000 years.
But hopefully sea level will rise 300 feet. Make it a cool 33,333.333R feet raised.
Great video and information !
Thank you!
This video is clueless. Has this guy ever been to Atlanta? Charlotte? All that and they don't even mention the real reason the populations are lower in these areas. Before air conditioning (which is only in the last 75 years), living in these areas could be oppressive between the heat and humidity. Also, the population drops off after a geographic feature called the Fall Line. This is where most of the rivers to the coast become shallow with rapids at the line between the piedmont and coastal plain. Cities like Augusta GA, Columbia SC, and Columbus GA all sit at the fall line. That is the furthest inland rivers could be navigated. Cities in the NE US have navigable rivers that go much further and with the Erie Canal, NY was connected all the way to the Midwest. Atlanta was more of a railroad town.
I live in Raleigh, NC and all anyone ever talks about here is going to the beach lol
I live in that area.
Edit: We voted for space videos. Do space videos lol
Don't worry, we are trying to satisfy all our audience by providing a greater quantity of content. However, space will always be our main focus!
This channel should stick to their videos about space…
The highest cost of living and lowest quality of life is literally in California. California also leads the nation in poverty. It took 30 seconds to debunk the southeast having a higher cost of living
Definitely looking into North Carolina....
Is it just me or this video got extremely repetitive towards the end ?
It's not just you.. I think this was AI written.
His videos always do that
I get that fewer people live in the area historically but why? That was the question I thought you were answering. You didn’t though, you say they don’t move there now and I get it. The things that would draw me are not what would draw others.
How are the Prisons there?
Lived in south carolina for a while in 70's insane amounts of Insects.......
I'm from this region. Kingstree, South Carolina
humid, hot, mosquitoes
"Warm" summers?
Climate Change, my ass. I am from South Carolina. We have had hurricanes, and tornadoes for decades. The cost of living is low in South Carolina. People afraid to move thee because of the Dixi past.
My sister just moved to Charleston...the cost of living there is anything but low
@@scpatl4now yes, pick the biggest city and try to get sea side views and wonder why it doesn't cost low. You are so out of touch with normal people. Go to Orangeburg, Bamberg, Hampton or even St Helena Island. People are dirt poor in those regions, I lived in.
@alex - NONSENSE.... people aren't afraid to move anywhere in the South for any reason!
@@JDDees Some are. My California friends scoffed at it. Florida seems to attract most the people.
@@alexincobra7379 My sister moved to Charleston (Mt Pleasant) from Los Angeles. She loves it there (CHS), and even in the hot Charleston housing market she got a much better house with the money she made from her house in LA
I live on the east coast, Virginia. I would not live anywhere else. Further north, and there are too many people. I am two hours from the coast, and two hours to the mountains.
Fewer humans on the Carolinas and Georgia coast.
Nothing but a GOOD thing, or what's left of that original native natural beauty - and there ain't much - would be gone as it nearly is in Florida.
The selfish and stupid are pouring in anyway, and SC now being invaded even faster than Florida. Despite climate change of course.
, for one these states are full of mountains to there's not much work there in three they're subject to hurricanes
I actually like this channel but I'm done and unsubscribing I can't take the background noise it's louder than the voice
Thanks for your feedback! We will lower the background music volume in the next videos :)
Insane curiosity do you know Jesus if you do not we can talk about it no judgment
To religious and too many Trumpers
Well, it is part of the Bible belt.
That's a real problem. Luckily, Wilmington NC is more progressive than some of the surrounding counties. Wilmington is in New Hanover County. Being a port city means that it's more cosmopolitan. Wilmington is also a university town with UNCW located there. The port traffic there is substantial. Attitudes of the local population are less rigid than what's found in more rural areas. Beyond the gorgeous beaches and channels, there's a thriving maritime industry along with a major film industry here. Climate is reliably warm with very mild Winters.Interesting facts: Interstate 40 starts in Wilmington NC and ends at Barstow CA. At 34° North latitude, Wilmington is the same latitude as Hollywood California.
Red states , too many Trump supporters.
Yes and as a lifelong resident of the south I can say I do not support Trump yet most MAGA folks are decent. They’re simply misguided.
Yes, thank the lord above, here people actually can think in analytical terms and prefer not to be blasted into radioactive dust, a path your buddy Biden is pushing all of us toward.
@@alphared4655 misguided? 😂
