I would like to congratulate the East St. Louis High Schools 2016 undefeated State Championship football team. I hope a few of the players take advantage if their college scholarships and graduate and make a good life for themselves.
I️ make food deliveries in ESTL all the time. Was very nervous my first few routes but was always met with nice people. Yes it’s a town in a bad state but don’t judge a book by its cover. You won’t find trouble if you’re not looking for it.
I worked at a bank in downtown east St. Louis for quite a while and honestly it was a lot of fun. The people are actually genuine and very nice. Respect goes a long way
CharlieBo313, I studied geography at a large midwestern university for five years and American urban geography was a big part of my studies. Your videos of daily everyday life in these neighborhoods are a brilliant snapshot of the realities of urban life in the U.S. Thanks for all you do. I have become hooked on your videos. You do a great job, sir.
I stopped going to East St.louis in 2008/2009 some times I still dream about Sexy Cute Miss Tis on 44th Street she whipped it on me when I came home from the military and visited East St.Louis Illinois in fact I dreamed about her last night and played the hit song by Delegation " Oh Honey " who could ever forget Miss Tis Yummy .
Here's the route taken in the video: You start off at 2217 Missouri Avenue in E. St. Louis.

My uncle Louie Orr was the first African American city attorney for East St. Louis. My cousin's lived there a we would visit every summer. I have really wonderful memories of time spent there. So sad to see what it has become.
Man you know that town is becoming abandoned just by listening to the cicadas. That's pretty loud ,and you can tell nature is beginning to reclaim this town. RIP East St Louis.
Thank you for saying that. I lived there amost my entire life. Never joined a gang, never been shot at, nor ever seen a dead body laying out in the street somewhere.
Looks like a relatively poor area, but not nearly as bad as I was expecting seeing that it is consistently considered the most dangerous city in America.
Yeah really it's nothing just some buildings in disrepair. People act like you'll be thrillkilled if you're seen walking down the street. But that's ridiculous
It's a fairly spread out town, unlike Bmo or Philly. It's not like 30,000 people all live in one square mile of each other. But still. I wouldn't visit.
@@timmyjones1921 ya maybe overall crime rate. But east SL has the highest murder rate in the nation. Out of all the cities you mentioned Saint Louis has the next highest murder rate but east St Louis murder rate is nearly twice as high. Actually has a higher murder rate than most dangerous 3rd world cities across the world. Very sad
@lamar mikell well more than just propaganda. It has a higher murder rate than many of the dangerous cities in 3rd world countries. Shows how much America cares for its lower class!
It's only a flight & short drive away from Lambert Air Port in St.Louis Missouri . I used to fly from Minneapolis Minnesota to St.Louis and rent an SUV and go to East St.Louis Illinois alots . Miss Kitty's Saloon Strip Club in Washington Park East St.Louis Illinois kings Hwy @ I-64 There was a cute blonde white chick and a cute sexy black chick I nick named Chocolate & Vanilla we used to have lots of fun one week I brought 12'000 $$ and spent 8'000 with them we had a whole lots of fun . Raven she worked at Miss Kitty's also she was like 5'2" sexy and wild it was so much fun because it's only a 1 hour flight from Minnesota to St.Louis Missouri I could zoom back and forth weekends or even be back home in Minnesota in bed by midnight in 24 hr trips . Oh well those was the days and times all good things come to an end .
i drive through estl all the time. ive worked with many people that live there. all very nice & good people. not as bad as everyone thinks. be cordual, mind your business & you wont have any problems. this is what happens in a liberal state. this whole area, not just estl, is forgotten & gets no attention. bring small businesses & you get more tax money to fix infrastructure & pay the fire & police departments
somersetdc hahaha murder rate ain't as bad tho. I wish ppl would stop compating midwest cities to east coast citues cause y'all murders ain't bumpin wit ours. Just cause it might look worst over there don't mean you niggas out there knocking more heads off
@@SoUhhYea I'm speaking big facts cause east coast niggas too arrogant and be preaching about how bad their cities is when nobody gives a fuck. Only cities that's comparable to Midwestern crime is the south and you never see southerners on the internet trying to prove who's the worst unlike you cornball ass east coasters. What's understood doesn't need to be explained 💯💯
Damn man, how do you get to travel so much? And what's the intersection that you take a left on in the beginning of the video? I wanna google that too.
+MrJeff6742 I'm not sure about these streets, this was the first time I was ever in E St Louis. I was working for a company doing long distance deliveries to mostly auto plants and suppliers. But I travel a lot too.
You should have made a right on N 24th and followed by a quick left onto N 25th and continued till the fork in the road and made a right onto N 26th. N 26th becomes Caseyville Ave then continued up till you get to Kingshighway and made a left into the Washington park area. Which is one of the roughest areas in East st Louis along side Caseyville and Alorton. Would of been a better video of you would have just went the opposite way you did in the begging of the video on MIssouri Ave. Through the city center then south near Bond, Converse, Tudor and Piggottt into the pits. Hell a drive down the ruins of E Broadway would've been awesome. I'm not bashing your video btw i'm just stating there is way more of the east side you should've shown. You should make a video of you driving through Johnny DeShields and the Rompzz
You people are so full of it. You can see the guy riding around, that there's almost no one out, but kids playing. ESL crime is a big by-product of STL. Yeah, they sell drugs and fight, etc...., but no one gets into trouble unless you seek it out - trying to buy drugs and looking for hookers. You get what you deserve in those cases. The fact is if you don't bother the people you won't get jacked or robbed or anything else. My grandparents live on Converse and 29th, and there's never any trouble there. In the 70's the biggest crime problem was biker gangs using it as a rumble spot, especially the park off Bond Avenue (Virginia Park?). Also Buster Wortman and Blackmon were running the last of the city into the ground back then. ESL crime rate is particularLy high for it's size, but those numbers are not extrapolated for city size. That is why the percentage are so much higher than for larger cities. The crime rate in a place of 8 million+ like in New York allows for a better diffusing of crime percentages when compared to a city of 30.000 like in ESL. TAKE MY WORD YOU'LL GET JACKED IN ANY OF THE FIVE BOROUGHS OF NEW YORK LONG BEFORE ANYTHING WILL HAPPEN TO YOU IN EAST ST. LOUIS.
Terry G really??? FBI statistical data shows that natural bridge is the most dangerous street in America... they also did a study that showed 8 out of the 63 highest crime areas were in st.louis/estl meanwhile only 4 were in Chicago and Baltimore which are both seemingly pretty rough places. STL really is that bad
Sorry to disagree. E.St.L. Has the highest murder rate per % of people. So population doesn’t matter. St.L. Is currently #4. (And as big as Jacksonville Florida is, With all our shootings, Didn’t even get close to the top 20 list. And with the job market, I’m glad I moved ‼️
So is East Saint Louis IN Illinois or Missouri ? Its just EAST of The River in Illinois right ? Probably has a lot of Section 8 Residents from St.louis.
I work there , I almost got in a car crash during a police chase, by the messed up crooked intersection... you see shnucks and cricket and he turn left to the gas station 66'
Driver doesn't stop at Stop signs. Nice! I wonder if that where that kid was killed a few years ago when drivers in the rain ran a stop sign, nailed him and left him for dead. I have driven those streets btw. Seen it al.
charlie can you rank the worst hoods in these 3 cities? 1 being the worst hood and 3 being the least worst hood 1.) gary indiana 2.) detroit 3.) east st. louis
I would say 1) Detroit 2) Gary, IN 3) E. st Louis First of all all three are really bad. Really not a fare comparison because all of these cities are in Different size categories, E St Louis is a really small town. Gary , IN is a medium size city, and Detroit is a large city. What a lot of people don't understand is even per capita rates don't tell the whole story. In some years E st Louis has a higher crime rate than Detroit in some categories. But I always tell people if you have a city with 25 people and 5 of those people get killed that city would have the highest murder rate in the country per capita. But would you really compare that city with Detroit, or Chicago ? That's the best way I can explain how per capita can be decieving.
size does make a big difference. U should definitely drive through there again in the early hours of the morning, practically all the traffic lights don't work for what I've seen on google. That should make it scary
I hope to visit St Louis and E St Louis this summer. I saw some crazy stuff inside a gas station in E st Louis, but that was before I was doing those inside recordings lol.
You do realize East St. Louis was originally covered in a dense urban landscape? It looks like a forest now, you didn't seriously think we built a place like this on purpose? There's maybe like 3 houses if even that for every street, it's a literal wasteland.
Not the worst areas by far. If you stay around State St you're probably fine. Definitely some very rough parts, especially the wash park areas. People saying it looks fine, but this is middle of the day. Probably earlier, too. I used to drive thru heading to work and shit wasn't sketchy, but took it a couple times after work around 6 and it definitely got more active
Looks really poverty stricken. The weird thing is that there is a reasonable amount of traffic, yet hardly anyone outside. I expected to see more prostitutes based on the area's reputation.
This is East Saint Louis? Like, it's shitty and run down, but I've honestly seen way worse neighborhoods in parts of Chicago than here, a city that's supposedly 4 times deadlier. It looks no where near as bad as I was lead to believe.
East Saint Louis is poor and run and has a high crime rate but it's not worse than Chicago. Per Capita is deceiving because smaller cities always rank high because they don't have large enough decent areas to bring the average down. If you look at the crime rates per zip code Chicago and Detroit have several neighborhoods on it along with several other large cities. Places like Camden NJ, and East St Louis were'nt on there which means they don't have the worst neighborhoods. NYC actually has neighborhoods worst than East Saint Louis, but it will never make the list.
people can always say nuke this town---you have big towns that are a mess--when you have crooked people running things and brain washed people keep putting the crooks in office--cities go down- I was raised here and here is where I still live here and it is not the most dangerous city to live in--
I would like to congratulate the East St. Louis High Schools 2016 undefeated State Championship football team. I hope a few of the players take advantage if their college scholarships and graduate and make a good life for themselves.

Most of those people are fine.
Don't bother them and they won't bother you.

目前美國全國貧窮率15%，黑人則高達27.4%，全國平均失業率6.2%，黑人卻是11.6%，年輕黑人則高達21.4%。根據FBI統計，2005年到2012年之間，每年美國警察約「正當」槍殺400人，其中白人警察槍殺黑人高達96件，裡面高達18.7%是黑人青少年，白人青少年僅8.7%。
在2013年，美國3%的非洲裔(無論年齡)都有被捕坐牢的前科，而白人僅有0.5%坐過牢；再如在2011年，每15個非洲裔小孩，就有一人的父或是母親在坐牢；而白人每111人僅有一人的父或是母坐牢。
白人警察對非裔施暴，早非新聞?WHY?白人警察先入為主的成見?非裔自己不爭氣自毀形象?
在美國的黑人占美國總人口的12%, 卻占監獄人口50%。 在美國, 三分之一的黑人不是在獄中, 就在緩刑, 要不就是正在等待審判, 他們的犯案人數比上他們中上大學的人要多太多。
--
有一點註定美國將長久走向衰弱，那就是美國不斷增長的黑人人口。黑人是沒有希望的，而他們繁殖快速。
第一個說黑人是沒有希望這話的名人是美國的尼克森總統，他的的確確用了 hopeless 這個字來形容黑人。
尼克森的智慧是他用歷史來看問題。尼克森曾經私底下對他最親近的助理（至少包括 H.R. Haldeman 和John Ehrlichman）說：「黑人是沒有希望的。如果我們看過去一萬年的人類歷史，在世界所有的種族中，黑人是唯一的種族從來沒有能夠建立一個對周圍有影響力的社會。」
尼克森對黑人的評價是非常強而有力的，因為他對黑人這個種族的評語不是來自一人或一時，而是來自對整個種族一萬年的歷史觀察。
黑人對美國社會的整體貢獻是負面的，黑人必須自我檢討。鮑爾將軍和萊斯女士的貢獻不可能彌補黑人族群對美國傷害的萬分之一，也不可能改變美國黑人的社會形象。
黑人的人種特性是低智商和高體力（包括性能力），這跟黃種人的高智商和低體力（包括性能力）正好相反，而白種人二者都在中間。
我們仔細觀察美國的黑人。他們在學校學習成績不行，因為他們的智商偏低；他們很早就開始有性行為，因為他們的性慾旺盛，他們的生殖器也比較大，這是黑人性交的優勢。但是黑人缺乏責任心，造成的結果是大量的、遠超出其他種族的未婚媽媽和破碎的家庭，這使得下一代的黑人競爭力就越發降低，於是形成了惡性循環。長久下來，所有的黑人社會，沒有一個例外，全是低生產率和高犯罪率的社會。黑人不可避免地成為美國的社會問題和社會包袱。
