They did a nice display 🎃 look like a fun time.

A car looks like it might be in Nash Metropolitan

I’m abandoning my sometime soon because of the sewage project issue. Better to just walk away .

once one of the most important city in pa!

This is close to me a great place! I wanna get some bee gees on my next visit

You’re on a road dude, imagine that there are cars on it. It’s not bad luck, it’s called traffic.

Can you do a video of the nice areas of Johnstown?

Sad how some areas get that way

Dumpy town like where I was born in Pa!!

I don't know what it is, I know you're actually there but it still looks like you're in front of a greenscreen lol

I was born & raised in J-town. This was back when the city was booming. The steel mills were thriving. The population was over 70,000 people. I graduated from Johnstown Central Senior High School in 1966. It was a wonderful time to grow up in. Then the crooked politicians destroyed the city. People were bussed in from the eastern part of the state, to meet " the welfare quota" that the local government would receive from the federal government. Yep. Thankfully I left there in 1967 & never went back. I still have family in the surrounding area. I visited a few times over the years & it's very sad what our once wonderful city has turned in to. Crime high unemployment have ravaged this city. I commend those who are trying to turn this city into a prosperous one. The people there deserve it.

I know exactly where he is. Sadly he went directly to the hood in Johnstown and started to pick it apart. (Sad & Unfortunate)

1/3 of the citizens live below the poverty level yet they vote for Trump who will take away all their federal assistance. Likewise they believed Trump when he promised new steel and coal jobs. The problem with Johnstown is the area refuses to consolidate with outlying boroughs and townships to establish a bigger population foot. They would all rather die than compromise. If u want a real 3rd world scene visit Franklin borough opposite the old Bethlehem steel factory

How can you just abandoned a house when your making payments on it ?

Did you get 2 copyright strikes ? Way to early for Halloween 🤔

Looks Like you enjoy other peoples missery. One of the homes on your video belonged to someone I know. This is not entertainmnt, it's you makeing fun of others mistakes and misfortune. You should be ashamed... Boo Hoo someone is always bhind you.. You're the BLIGHT

This could be anyone of us in this day and age. Glad to see your doing well enough to do this...

He also has a bunch of Polish Ukrainian Slovenian in eastern European music on cassettes went up at one time and overdosed on POLKA tapes bought 33 and he always treated me right I haven’t been up there for about 30 years but I think I need to go back up there one of these days

Not a Museum, but the cleanest Antique store I've ever seen (The More You know) That place is loaded. Geez , The record collection I would definitely go thru😲 Good to see ya back on the old RUclipsS 👍

Pittsburgh homes experience blight due to taxes as well

Pennsylvania s tax system cause blight. Check tax lien on abandoned property and you will find that they are not buyable. Tax lien will apply to land as well.

I like to do the same thing, look at abandon homes. I live in Johbstown too. And i feel the same..its soo sad. Especially when these homes were beautiful back in the day. The homes you showed were in Kernville, Hornerstown and Moxham. Woukd love to see you film the inside too. Thank you.

You know a Nation is poorly run when we can have a homeless epidemic and an abandoned home epidemic at the same time. People & Places tend to have the future they deserve...

look up "Rosedale" Cambria County it's self is embarrassing

it used to be poppin' in early 1900's with trains coal mines and steal.... but floods came and now its the ghetto.

hey i live there!

These hoses are in great shape, and I'm sure it's owned by somebody who doesn't live nearby. They figure it's cheaper and easier to let it go. A lot of houses out here are for sale or rent. And they're cheap and the area is nice, it's sad not many want to come here, but it's an open secret I guess. When we moved here in September, folks were going around offering to buy houses. They want to make b&B's, vacation rentals, rentals, buy, improve and sell, etc. They're trying to gentrify out here, but people that remain are trying to fight it and I don't blame them. The previous owners turned those types of people down and vetted buyers, they wanted someone who will live in and care for their home, which they put a good bit of work into. The house I mentioned previously, the Moxham Victorian has yet to be condemned, and there's a tree growing in the upstairs and it's flooded and raccoons and wild animals running around. The first and second floor are still inhabited and they're waiting on it to be condemned, or find a buyer, which they think they can get over $100k for it. Johnstown isn't really in a hurry to condemn places like you think. That house is also being taken over by vines and trees and junk all over the front and back and the house looks just as bad as some of these if not worse. But some of these houses are still in great shape and that's a shame.

I lived in the Moxham district of Johnstown in 1999-2000 or so. It was kind of rough, but not as bad as now. But back then, you didn't have anyone trying to improve Johnstown like today. I moved here from a small town in Washington County, PA and we love it. The mall is actually coming back instead of dying off like other places, plus there's so much to do up here, and so much history. Also, everything is so much cheaper and everyone is so much nicer, at least where I'm at in the suburbs, not sure about Johnstown proper, but I know there's a ton of crime and drugs. Moxham used to be really nice, a historic district even back when I lived there, now it's a hell scape it feels like to me. Even the nice Victorian I used to live in is falling apart now, and despite it being uninhabitable, there are people living in it still! The same problem was where I moved from, it's just a bigger area here and just as bad if not worse here. I wish they'd reopen the mill like they did for the Monessen mill, but I guess they did, because the one mill Johnstown still has, just like Monessen is a wire mill.

Thank you! Helpful! Let's see if hubby can replicate the same for me!! I also want to do this for the actual vinyl records storage. Can't believe there's not many solutions out there for this!

City council don't clean up the townSet a council, don't clean up the town.

Democrat Policies are not working.

THAT INTRO SCARED ME

these are areas unless locals strep up and rebuild and populate corporation mostly from other countrys will buy up and rebuild reantal units usually over priced and reny hop up and more leave the town :) most of these at this point the couny owns and no one purchases them at the tax auctions so they sit and wait because one there are many it to costly to take them down .

I found a house that it was super cheap I was about to buy it but before that I opened the RUclips to see how Johnstown looking like snd suddenly I end up watching your video So I'm not going to buy a house there

It's called joe Biden ECONOMICS 😢😮😢😮,,,,,you see it all over his country of ours ,,,,,,

So many rust belt cities looking this way - NY state, PA, OH , WV, MI etc.. I don’t see them recovering in our lifetime .

Ending Pennsylvania property taxes would help.

I grow up in Johnstown pa it was not all that bad back in the days but I watched my town fall apart after the steel Mills shut down my town became the poorest town people started to leave do to the employment after the rich left the poor people moved in we have a lot of convex and repeated felons that now surround our Johnstown area, it became overpopulated by the unfortunate people which caused our town to become dangerous and more vacant and rundown I no longer live in the town of Johnstown PA I was able to escape from this soon to be abandoned lost that was the richest city in the United States due to the steelmill that once ran in my hometown

Every town has the "Watchers!!!" That's what you are experience!!!☝🏻🤨🙌🏻

I live in Pittsburgh and did not even know we had a Museum of Illusions here lol. Thanks for sharing. Might have to go check it out myself.

Cutting property taxes, and taking away the child tax credit is the way to pay for school and not bankrupt people who are responcible

Thanks for sharing some awareness to this problem. Great video. I subscribed..!!

I think many times these homes belonged for decades to a family that all died away, probably leaving one very old person living alone with no help to keep the place up. Once that last remaining person died, there was no one left alive to leave the house to, thus it is just abandoned, left at the mercy of vandals, squatters, dopeheads, just rotten people to tear it up. It is a shame, but we see all over the country.

zepka is in winber

Man, there are soooooo many homes and towns being put on the net. Look at what is happening to America. Even so, Come Lord Jesus A-men

I was in Altoona 2 years ago for 2 days.I was going to work on a solar farm job in Portage that was going to last 5 months.I decided not to stay and instead visited my hometown of Binghamton NY.Both places seen better days.I stayed in Binghamton for 3 days first time since 1993.I went back home to Raleigh NC.

My grand father and grand mother lived in Johnstown. He owned very successful car repair garages. Called Curry Garage. His name was Gus. Im glad hes not around to see these homes. It's absolutely pitiful. This city has seen horrendous floods as well. I really loved visiting my grandparents.Back in the 70s thru 90s. The people were very kind, caring, and nice!

My house is future blight . The way the city is run , and there sewer project there making everyone pay for. Just leave it fall apart.

Thanks for your video. Is anyone reading this familiar with the area's current water quality?

Johnstown, Altoona, and Bedford are among the most depressed areas in the state. Once the roof on a house is bad, the whole structure goes bad quickly. Many of those homes have delinquent taxes owed.
