This is cool. Thank you for the upload. Just relocated to Davenport from Chicago for work this past summer. I’m renting currently but I’ve been talking with people about purchasing property and getting the lay of the land, flood wise etc. Thanks!
No problem! Definitely feel free to reach out at my personal number (563-265-2599) if you have any questions about the area or certain homes that you may like.
I live on the other side of the river. A few things that turn me off about Davenport... the smell of the Purina factory, the gang activity, & urban-industrial wasteland. On the Illinois side, there's also gang problems & industrial issues. They didn't build infrastructure for cars to bypass long trains (such as underpass or overpass bridges). I like living here just for the variety of towns, & scenic spots along the river. I'd like to retire to somewhere out of the city though. This 4th of July rendered 5 straight days of people shooting off fireworks. Being middle-aged; that gets annoying quick.
We haven't really experienced that around here. It may be that way down river from us; I do not know, but as of right now we haven't seen it this year.
There was a time in the 90s that it was low enough to walk down on the riverbed. There's actually ladders along the other side of the wall near Centennial park.

These are a fascinating series of videos. This man has a sense of humor 30 years ahead of his time. In High School if I were assigned to create a 6:32 video this is the type of content I would formulate at my locker and scribble down before walking into class. Plenty of talking but no actual information, and the pros or cons are never the actual pros or cons of the Quad Cities. He didn’t mention bridge traffic ONCE in this video, which leads me to believe he doesn’t actually live here, and is trolling people wasting their time with Wikipedia nonsense tips & info. (The whole pig smell thing 😂) Which I fully respect and applaud ✊

Keokuk is population 10. U can literally drive through Keokuk in less than two minutes. Unless you mean bad as in absolutely nothing to do, otherwise Keokuk is just a small community made up predominantly meth heads
What do you think? We're these things helpful for you?

I remember watching a shed float down duck Creek. Most of the houses in that area have been demolished. And the flood of '93 was epic
It is pretty crazy when Duck Creek decides to flood.
In 2019 there was a wicked flood
2019 was the worst on record.
Yep, I have a ton of pictures from the 93 flood. Brady street, division street.
Really lol
Why not bring up crime and stolen cars constantly in Davenport?
Because he doesn't live in the dark side of Davenport.
Because shitcago takes the center stage in the midwest
@@jbow958im bout to start a channel on the dark side of ts fr 😮💨🤣
That's what I thought he'd be talking about. I want My 5 minutes back LOL
I saw on another website that the Mississippi River is getting dangerously low due to the lack of rain. 😢
We haven't really experienced that around here. It may be that way down river from us; I do not know, but as of right now we haven't seen it this year.
That Website is bullshit. Our river floods almost every other year.
We deffinatly have seen this in the davenport. Credit island dried up almost completely and the river has been way down@@LIVINGINTHEQUADCITIES

Wait. I live in Burlington. Im supposed to go to the basement. I just go outside and check it out.

So you do or don't think that Davenport Iowa is a good place to have a group reunion?
I think it would be a great spot for a reunion
Thanks
Cambria / Steeplegate was mentioned?
That smell is definitely purina lol
I grew up in Davenport, graduated West high in ‘71 and did 20 in the US Air Force and now retired and living in the Phoenix area.

You don’t improve by people kissing your ass. Criticism should be welcomed because you get feedback and improve.

Davenport isn't bad
At all....
Keokuk is the only real bad place here

@@otis8990 Being made up of predominantly meth heads is why it's bad
Nah crime is really bad down there. Surprisingly worse than even davenport or cedar rapids.
Where you are standing is no where near a farm you are on the edge of Bettendorf and Davenport. Such a bad video and low effort…
I'm sorry it was such a disappointment for you
The smell of money
None of this is true whatsoever 😊
You don't think so? Is there something I should have included?
Right you're father can't get pregnant. We already were aware of that.
😂
Where do you come up with this stuff
I'm in Cedar Rapids. We have crime problems and bigger city unless you count all quad (4) cities into one. We ain't all as bad as Shit cago
@LactoseTheIntolerant cuz bettendorf is the rich pill heads ,
@yoo jastle that's so cute. But Waterloo is the worst shit hole city in Iowa. Because of the shitty people
It's called chicago chi town u stupid fk
