Many of my subscribers have been posting requests and sending private messages asking for me to go and do videos in certain places out west especially lately, including the Los Angeles area, Oakland, Texas cities such as Dallas, and Houston. Also many more southeast cities, Miami, Birmingham also St Louis, Boston, New Orleans, and many others. This as you know is very expensive. I will eventually go to these places, if you would like to see this happen sooner rather than later, please make a donation to through Paypal donation I have set up with a debit or credit card, no matter how big or small.

CharlieBo313 You should try that side of town at night your will see a little bit more. But there’s a hood known as Dblock where I’m from and that area on Jackson and Milton was a few raids and roadblocks that afternoon you where in town not saying cause I’m from there but if you looking for something Highland st and Boulevard rd, (Blvd on east side)are your main hotspots in the daytime. But south side died down a lot there close to sheriff headquarters, which is a trailer in the heart of south side 🤣. Preciate the video.
Confirmed for showing the worst parts of Sumter but that is a GOOD thing because it's all part of history that deserves to be recorded. BTW while you do your thing you could also capture regional architecture (there are lots of craftsman style buildings in Sumter) beyond trailers, though they certainly ARE the regional architecture of the South. Most of the abandoned buildings have owners who live out of state so it's hard for the city to foreclose unless the owners stop paying property tax. Even then it's not easy. I moved here after escaping New Jersey long ago and Sumter is pretty chill. Folks are a lot friendlier than in big cities, and I've been to many of those.
I don't care what nobody says about Sumter Ive lived many places Atlanta, D.C, Charlotte and now I live in Philadelphia. This is not hood this is just poverty or lack or care and maintenance. Hood is when you can't walk into stores without pushing past drug dealers that have the front door blocked, walking all over trash and dirty needles in the streets. Hearing noises and gunshots outside your bedroom window 24/7 no matter what time of year it is. People give Sumter a bad name when its really not that bad of a place to be
Yeah cuz folks are decent in the country. If something bad happens that means you were looking or asking for it. One thing I can say is if ya ain't from the country dont go steppin round out there with that big city attitude cuz you'll find out real quick. The country is a dangerous place for city slickers even if they from "the hood"
The orange tag on the front porch of the run down house @ 7:32 is a notice from the county that the property is delinquent on taxes. There's a time frame in which it needs to be paid before it goes up for auction to the public. At the last second, some extended family member will pay it and save it from auction. Then they will do it all again next year. I live in SC not far from Sumter. This is a pretty standard rural black neighborhood. You'll find them to not be "dangerous" like the Northern cities. Mostly just people hanging around and talking about cars or food.
Why do you call this the hood? Just because the housing is not big and expensive apparently you do not know what the hood really is These are probably decent hard-working people that live in these houses. You are just riding around in circles why not go to other roads in Sumter. Do you homework.
My mother's hometown when I was younger I walked these streets and dirt roads at night by myself. Everything isn't always what it seems. This is just the Southside Sumter has very nice spots.
I don't know what era you did this in, but you could certainly do that back in the 80's. I used to sneak out of the house & walk the length of Old Pocalla Rd. at 2 in the morning. Good times!
In the south everything is spread out and less populated. In the northeast it's all triple deckers and tightly packed houses and shit. Out west it's usually flat suburbs.
It's crazy seeing my old neighborhood. At the strat of the video I lived on the house on the right (off camera) foxworth st. This neighborhood was rough but had alot of good people. A descent community
It seems like where ever I go, you are there or I am on my way there. We just was in New Orleans in Feb. and we are on our way to Sumter next week. It is one of my dreams to do what you are doing. How do I get started? Do you need a partner to help you drive and film?
That’s really only one hood in Sumter. It’s were I grew up South Side. The street right across from the store you went in. When I was little it was called Blakes Grocery!! My grandparents own their house. It wasn’t that bad when I was little kinda glad they didn’t get to see how bad the neighborhood has gotten.
YU got east side/ the blvd park homes friendship harmony court west side n main calico/gamecock summer arms miller arms miller rd broad st Mooneyham 15 south wedge field red bay sha town/Webb st oh trust me I AINT live there in years but my family known especially on south side
Haha But not even close. Fort Sumter is an actual historical site. It was used during the Confederate war in the 1860s. It is located on a tiny island by Charleston SC. Sumter, SC is a city near the middle of the state.
B!††3RSW33† 901 Thanks sweetie, I'm big and strong can go where i want, still you have helped me saving some strength. But i have seen 3rd world in USA before, that was California, there are some huge tent cities along the street, even more shitty than Detroit.
Little Sumter SC hoods or what you would consider a hood which I think Sumter SC don't have one is Paradise compared to those in major cities and States Sumter SC is a very laid-back small town very clean by the way .
I'm browsing homes for sale in Aiken, Cheraw, Columbia and Sumter. A single family home with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and an acre of land for around $150,000. Here in Connecticut $150,000 would get you a small condo or a mobile home. Saw some worthy homes in Sumter (although not on an acre of land) on S. Wise St, Lesesne St. and Cuttino Rd. Problem is, they're selling before I can get down there to look at them in person.
People get killed almost ever week in Sumter if that's not bad than damn I hate to see what you call bad you must be on a whole nother planet or something
I lived in Sumter from 1975 until 2014. Best thing I ever did was move. We lived out in the country and had drive by shooting at the house next to us twice. One night a stray bullet hit our house. Even though we lived near the end of a long road( our end had been quite for 20 years) the hood on the other end decided to bring it our way. It was time to get the hell out of there. Btw I went total crazy and moved to Maine lol.
I guess I'll post another video of Sumter. I was born there but moved to Queens N.Y at age 10 I'll probably go this weekend and film. Not to stir up drama but just to show people who never been more of the city..please watch for my video.
Ok let me just say that there is a hood and divide in every city in the U.S. Take it from a person who lived in several different states including where I presently live Summerville SC. Before people judge this video I'll let you know I purchased I nice piece of land in the town of Wedgefield SC about 9 miles from downtown Sumter. Yes lots of trailer homes. Most are vacant. Yes there are old homes like in Seattle, atlanta, el Paso Texas, Chicago, new Orleans, detroit metro area, Philadelphia metro area, LA, San Diego, New York, new Jersey, Pittsburgh, Baltimore, Tampa bay, Savannah and many other places I visited and lived. My wife and I are from the north and moved to the south for some good country living. The land we purchased is close to the forest actually next to it. I love the scenery around the area not many homes by the property a nice get away. Sumter is a nice town full of culture and good folks from what I have experienced.it is country in the town of wedgefield and also modern areas lots of it and I love it. Nice spread updated clean areas. Lots of Very nice in parts of sumter considering the lack of employment. I hope you're having fun driving around hoods and not talking to anyone about their town or city so you can truly understand their way of life. Most love it there it's their way of life their home. Truth be told I too stereotyped SC. Now I have a totally new perspective. I am going to make a video of sumter one day and the area I purchased land. Another thing I will mention some of mobile homes are hunting dwellings hunters in the areas I purchased property. If your a city person like me you may appreciate the country lifestyle because it's relaxed. If you never lived anywhere other than the city it would be easy to judge some of the country towns, I do understand that. But take the time to explore for yourself. It will open your eyes and mind. That's if your open minded.
@@juanpaulr that's what's up. I can transfer my job I think the closest is either in Florence or Columbia but I'm with the commute if it's little traffic.
Yes I have lived in Wedgefield, I have good people living there, I am back living in Cherryvale at the moment. I have lived out on 15 South years ago when I was with my ex-husband, and then just back to Cherryvale from 15 South out of my Moma's place in with my boyfriend that also grew up in Cherryvale as I did.
I was assigned at Shaw AFB, grew up in Sumter, retired from USAF and live in Ladson. I know the area of Wedgefield, Battens Store and have hunted, fished, hiked pretty much all of the Foxville Rd areas, Watered, Poinsettia, Manchester Forest from Pinewood, Rimini, everywhere there. It's nice and quiet and I so wished that I'd settled in that area just to get away from the expansion, traffic, and congestion of the Lowcountry's Tri-County.
I see some funny ass comments and I can already tell most of y''all from out of town..... this little "country" town from around 2010 - 2011 was the murder capital of SC and it's still rowdy don't sleep on sumter !
@@ZHGAmingAllTheWay same here Cuz I'm from the East Syde of CherryVale near the Center ik first hand how this City operates and it Can get insane asf only difference is all the shit that happens is easier to hide bc its the middle of nowhere and somewhere at the same time. Everyone blends easily
@@manic_muzic I grew up in an alright part of town off of Alice drive but "alright" in sumter is still pretty shitty compared to other cities. I know that bc I've since moved away and realised just how shitty sumter is and the shit we got away w bc nobody gave a fuck.
I'd rather be in those hoods than Chicago or LA or Baltimore...I can't be the only one to notice though all the brand new cars parked at those "poverty" houses...makes you wonder
Queen of Greatness why do we really want people to call this place hood? But yea. There's a few things to do. But really not much. Camden was my area. Sumter was the place to go till you were a teen. Then it's Columbia or anywhere better. Cause it really is a shithole. No fault of the people who lives there. They're just trying to make it. Y'all need to get people together and open up an arcade center or something. I couldn't get peoples to do that shit for nothing.
R Parker You'll be right between Florence and Columbia. On Fridays downtown Florence is lit!!!! There's always something to do in Columbia. In Sumter, you have some little hang out spots if u like to shoot pool. This video is an awful representation of Sumter. They have a beautiful park called Lake Swamp BEAUTIFUL I live in Florence and I'm sure you'll enjoy.
I see lots of motorcyclists here, lots of country roads to ride around on :) I moved here from Oregon last year, it's my husband's hometown and we came back for family reasons. Very different from the northwest, but I haven't been unhappy here. It's a strange contrast, though, you'll see old derelict buildings right next to nice new neighborhoods. I don't live far from the base, you will definitely notice this.
Sumter aint bad . Im from Lancaster S.C. ride thru the projects at the wrong time here an just chill ....lets just say you wont last long before you be ready to get the hell on thru.
I don't know if i would say that but sumter's not a hot spot for crime. I wouldn't want to walk around south sumter in the middle of the night tho that would be asking for trouble.
Wat the fuck you think the hood mean just po folk the hood is not violent there's violence n the hood because of certain situations but being po is the hood
I live in a fucked up big city only way I survived this long is god and what I learned living in Sumter learned how to read niggas and move bein from south Sumter south side AINT no joke this whole town ain’t no joke
Atlantic Ave at the store was operated by Ms. Alethia and Dorothy Blake in the 60's and were church members in the church I grew up in, Emmanuel UMC corner of Bee at S. Main.
I know some people from Sumter, SC. It's really country & homely there. You really need a car too live there, the closest store looks like it's miles ago. It's too country for me, they can have it. I'm a "city" girl. Thanks Charlie!!!
Kenneth White, I'm from NYC. How often i got to Sumter? I don't exactly know what that means. But i haven't been to Sumter, SC. From the look of it, and also from pictures i saw from people i personally know are from, it doesn't look like a place i would want to live or visit. Like i said it looks a little too country for me. This is just my opinion!!!
Tatiana Drayton I live in SC. Not far from Sumter. Probably like an hour from there. What little I know about it is that it's extremely poor. I never thought of it as dangerous but then again I never went there at night. I used to live in Westchester County N.Y. but moved to SC for the cheaper living and better weather. Always trying to link up with good people. Lol
Okay not trying to be negative but you are coming down on how the blacks live in there neighborhood, where do you live and how does your neighborhood look?
First of all I'm black, secondly I have several videos showing neighborhoods I lived in on the east side of Detroit, and the schools I attended, and I also narrate the videos.
Hi Ms. Moore this was filmed on March 20, 2018, and I have live right near Shaw Air Force Base most of my life. Living in Cherryvale right now and it is 9/23/2021. I am wondering did you ever make to Sumter, S. C. ?
Oh yes they are big, once inside you would not think it is a mobile home, or Modular Home. But no good against Tornadoes, Hurricanes or Severe Thunderstorms with high winds, or like the "Great Flood" in October 2015!
Definitely didn't go to the right parts of sumter my hood was off Lafayette. Shooting, fighting and murdering is what I grew up around and it's still rough over there im in dalzell area now
Yes Tori it is everywhere. Unless you live in a gated community. But those are not that fun! I am familiar with Lafayette and Dazell I am in Cherryvale at the moment.
kjetil b lived here for 2 years, no doesn't look bad from the outside but come out on these roads at night and it's a different scene, they won't mess with people who mind their business but if you go looking for trouble, sumter will hand trouble to you
when there are really good Thunderstorms or Severe Thunderstorms certain areas start rising up to the top of ones foot, but the "Great Flood " of 2015 was bad. But I live right across from Shaw Air Force Base and there was no flash flooding just little puddles then it would absorb into the ground then you go 4-5 miles in other areas and it was badly flooded, bridges washed out on several roads. Just couple months back one yard maybe a mile from where I live there are like multiple homes maybe a mobile home are two then a smaller home with additions or a single wide mobile home added on, that are in a line, I think it is many members of family living in them. There back yard where there Utility Shed and and dog houses were, was still partially flooded with stagnate water. I have not looked lately but it might still have standing water. I would not doubt it.
Really???? I have family in G.A. and I haved lived there on a couple of occasions I never seen really bad, bad areas, just in the city in or close to ATL. Where my Uncle Randy was murdered shot 3 times in the chest! His murder still to this day has not been caught. You know no grass will grow on his grave, It has been said once his killer is caught ( if ever) then grass will begin to grow on his grave. He is buried in my familys grave yard in Hemmingway S.C. (Georgetown S.C.)
@@skiiii4444 yeah he fasho from the county . I'm in the middle of Sumter but Dalzell is Sumter but its past shaw air force base which is out there from the rest of Sumter. Merk city is really Sumter city but everywhere in the county got it bad spots. Basically. Dalzell got some rough parts too but the "hoods" with high violent crime rate is going to be south side and in town. My dad live across the street from the store in this video. Not gon say to much but I knew him too but it was only bizz related when we talked.
In some areas it is, I just moved from American Mobile Home Park behind American Bingo and Tony's guns and it got real bad there and in the Cherryvale area where I use to live when I was 10 on up to my teenage years and it has got real bad.
Its a boring town and a really poor area. Drugs and gangs are what's popping cause everyone is broke. Its really rural. You can get a house super cheap. Get ready for some gentrification cause it won't be long before this is condos and outlet stores and micro breweries.
All the ppl who commented about sumter so nice it ain't hood r wateva cool but I Kno y'all don't watch the news and keep up wit the crime rate to Kno wat is hood bad r poverty but I can y'all this if any of y'all live here it's nice to y'all cuz y'all work go home and stay out the way cuz y'all Kno if u make the friend r meet the rite person it could be yo last day breathing r last day out for a 10 r 15 summers so stop the bullshit dis ain't Cali r Chicago but theses fools around bustin dat ratchet u will die even if u don't step out of bounds so ppl be safe when u come to Sumter cuz they don't call it the Murk for nothing
Dat good ole south AINT nothing nice cross them tracks imma south boy forreal when all the hustlers ran Sumter played for Frankie lee basketball team when ms Geneva ran the gym I don’t kno about Atlantic st store I kno bout me blakely use to give me slices of baloney ate from Solomon’s and the chicken coop got my haircut by me wilder I remember when the laundromat was by the Indian store when Andres on Manning ave was lit and the pool hall was cross the street every weekend I remember hannas on harvin st all the harvin st hustlers brand street hustlers was at that store NIGGA THE CHASER VACKY STORE OMG IF YU WASNT OFF THE PORCH FEOM 91-00 YU DONT KNO SHIT BOUT SUMTER FORREAL THAT LIL SMALL TOWN KNOWN FOR REAL NIGGAS AND AINT NO JOKE BUT ALOT OF RATTING GOIN ON TOO
sightseeing along these neighbourhoods is very entertaining! espesially for a Norwegian like me who lives in safe and healty enviroments. Good videos,road movie's?;)
Lovro Antolovic I hope you planned on being here to visit for at least a few weeks and have money to fly around. America is huge. It varies a lot, from geography to people.
Why do they not take better care of their landscaping? Not one of them had a garden? Seriously? With such a long growing season they could sell produce.
Douglas Kasten There are many urban areas in the South as well, just like there are many rural areas in the North. This isn’t hood, it’s a rural small town and as far as rural small towns go, they’re usually working poor to working class.

About the same as North Charleston, but probably safer at night
Do you travel around the country to show different hoods? You should travel to Houston.
It's worth noting that crime here is way below the national average in most categories
That city had the highest murder rate per capita at one point. That's why it's called Merk City
Well it is not that way exactly anymore as of September 23, 2021!!
People get killed almost ever week in Sumter if that's not bad than damn I hate to see what you call bad you must be on a whole nother planet or something
The crime rate is apparently 327% higher than the national average
Sure has changed from 1975 i worked at the Campbell soup plant.was a nice town back then.
David Futch ,
I lived in Sumter from 1975 until 2014. Best thing I ever did was move. We lived out in the country and had drive by shooting at the house next to us twice. One night a stray bullet hit our house. Even though we lived near the end of a long road( our end had been quite for 20 years) the hood on the other end decided to bring it our way. It was time to get the hell out of there. Btw I went total crazy and moved to Maine lol.
This looks like it could be right here in Mississippi bro..
Looks like Sweet Home ALABAMA! :-)
Haha I hear you! What part of Alabama? We're neighbors :D
I guess I'll post another video of Sumter. I was born there but moved to Queens N.Y at age 10 I'll probably go this weekend and film. Not to stir up drama but just to show people who never been more of the city..please watch for my video.
Ok let me just say that there is a hood and divide in every city in the U.S. Take it from a person who lived in several different states including where I presently live Summerville SC. Before people judge this video I'll let you know I purchased I nice piece of land in the town of Wedgefield SC about 9 miles from downtown Sumter. Yes lots of trailer homes. Most are vacant. Yes there are old homes like in Seattle, atlanta, el Paso Texas, Chicago, new Orleans, detroit metro area, Philadelphia metro area, LA, San Diego, New York, new Jersey, Pittsburgh, Baltimore, Tampa bay, Savannah and many other places I visited and lived.
My wife and I are from the north and moved to the south for some good country living. The land we purchased is close to the forest actually next to it. I love the scenery around the area not many homes by the property a nice get away. Sumter is a nice town full of culture and good folks from what I have experienced.it is country in the town of wedgefield and also modern areas lots of it and I love it. Nice spread updated clean areas. Lots of Very nice in parts of sumter considering the lack of employment.
I hope you're having fun driving around hoods and not talking to anyone about their town or city so you can truly understand their way of life. Most love it there it's their way of life their home.
Truth be told I too stereotyped SC. Now I have a totally new perspective. I am going to make a video of sumter one day and the area I purchased land. Another thing I will mention some of mobile homes are hunting dwellings hunters in the areas I purchased property. If your a city person like me you may appreciate the country lifestyle because it's relaxed. If you never lived anywhere other than the city it would be easy to judge some of the country towns, I do understand that. But take the time to explore for yourself. It will open your eyes and mind. That's if your open minded.
That's what's up. I'm from Cali been staying in Vegas for the last few years and looking to make a similar move to SC with my wife and kids.
@@SCBB666 you will not need disappointed. Housing is reasonable and jobs are here.
@@juanpaulr that's what's up. I can transfer my job I think the closest is either in Florence or Columbia but I'm with the commute if it's little traffic.
Yes I have lived in Wedgefield, I have good people living there, I am back living in Cherryvale at the moment. I have lived out on 15 South years ago when I was with my ex-husband, and then just back to Cherryvale from 15 South out of my Moma's place in with my boyfriend that also grew up in Cherryvale as I did.
I was assigned at Shaw AFB, grew up in Sumter, retired from USAF and live in Ladson. I know the area of Wedgefield, Battens Store and have hunted, fished, hiked pretty much all of the Foxville Rd areas, Watered, Poinsettia, Manchester Forest from Pinewood, Rimini, everywhere there. It's nice and quiet and I so wished that I'd settled in that area just to get away from the expansion, traffic, and congestion of the Lowcountry's Tri-County.
I see some funny ass comments and I can already tell most of y''all from out of town..... this little "country" town from around 2010 - 2011 was the murder capital of SC and it's still rowdy don't sleep on sumter !
Ikr I grew up here this place ain't no joke
@@ZHGAmingAllTheWay same here Cuz I'm from the East Syde of CherryVale near the Center ik first hand how this City operates and it Can get insane asf only difference is all the shit that happens is easier to hide bc its the middle of nowhere and somewhere at the same time. Everyone blends easily
@@manic_muzic I grew up in an alright part of town off of Alice drive but "alright" in sumter is still pretty shitty compared to other cities. I know that bc I've since moved away and realised just how shitty sumter is and the shit we got away w bc nobody gave a fuck.
Acting like that’s something to be proud of
@@bigboymf ni55a they never said they was proud of it fukk ass
Just fount out my grandma from there. So I have family from there that I've never met or new about
I'd rather be in those hoods than Chicago or LA or Baltimore...I can't be the only one to notice though all the brand new cars parked at those "poverty" houses...makes you wonder
I bet a set of Insane Clown Posse/Juggalo kids roam these trailers😂
Dis south side try Dem if u want
nah prolly some dirty G niggas
Doesn't look like there's too much to do there. Maybe play board games and D&D?
Infectedstyles †****** I used to work there, he just got the hood.
There's other parts to Sumter SC. LOL 🤣
Queen of Greatness why do we really want people to call this place hood?
But yea. There's a few things to do. But really not much.
Camden was my area. Sumter was the place to go till you were a teen. Then it's Columbia or anywhere better. Cause it really is a shithole.
No fault of the people who lives there. They're just trying to make it.
Y'all need to get people together and open up an arcade center or something. I couldn't get peoples to do that shit for nothing.
R Parker You'll be right between Florence and Columbia.
On Fridays downtown Florence is lit!!!!
There's always something to do in Columbia.
In Sumter, you have some little hang out spots if u like to shoot pool.
This video is an awful representation of Sumter.
They have a beautiful park called Lake Swamp BEAUTIFUL
I live in Florence and I'm sure you'll enjoy.
I see lots of motorcyclists here, lots of country roads to ride around on :) I moved here from Oregon last year, it's my husband's hometown and we came back for family reasons. Very different from the northwest, but I haven't been unhappy here. It's a strange contrast, though, you'll see old derelict buildings right next to nice new neighborhoods. I don't live far from the base, you will definitely notice this.
sumter boring as hell bro. Columbia is like 40 minutes away and the beach ain't too far. But in sumter there isn't jack shit to do.
My grandmother and her siblings were born here in the late 1920s and early 1930s. Her grandparents were slaves here.
You didn't even scratch the surface of hoods in Sumter. Next time you're in town let me know and I'll give you a tour...
I know right. You got gamecock, Miller arms, friendship, redbay.
Bob H I would like a tour
Sumter aint bad . Im from Lancaster S.C. ride thru the projects at the wrong time here an just chill ....lets just say you wont last long before you be ready to get the hell on thru.
not hood this just po folk .. You can walk thru there at 2 am with no problems ..
Dee double u since when goofy? Betcho ass won't💯
Sumter is very safe. I use to stay there in summer. There's no hoods except for friendship pjs
I don't know if i would say that but sumter's not a hot spot for crime. I wouldn't want to walk around south sumter in the middle of the night tho that would be asking for trouble.
Wat the fuck you think the hood mean just po folk the hood is not violent there's violence n the hood because of certain situations but being po is the hood
I live in a fucked up big city only way I survived this long is god and what I learned living in Sumter learned how to read niggas and move bein from south Sumter south side AINT no joke this whole town ain’t no joke
Atlantic Ave at the store was operated by Ms. Alethia and Dorothy Blake in the 60's and were church members in the church I grew up in, Emmanuel UMC corner of Bee at S. Main.
Do suburbia in Sumter I have land out der tryna see wat it’s looking like now
Much land, no backyard gardens, fruit trees!?.
I know some people from Sumter, SC. It's really country & homely there. You really need a car too live there, the closest store looks like it's miles ago. It's too country for me, they can have it. I'm a "city" girl. Thanks Charlie!!!
Looks like a nice town
Wrong
Tatiana Drayton Where u from? How often you got to Sumter?
Kenneth White, I'm from NYC. How often i got to Sumter? I don't exactly know what that means. But i haven't been to Sumter, SC. From the look of it, and also from pictures i saw from people i personally know are from, it doesn't look like a place i would want to live or visit. Like i said it looks a little too country for me. This is just my opinion!!!
Tatiana Drayton I live in SC. Not far from Sumter. Probably like an hour from there. What little I know about it is that it's extremely poor. I never thought of it as dangerous but then again I never went there at night. I used to live in Westchester County N.Y. but moved to SC for the cheaper living and better weather. Always trying to link up with good people. Lol
Hoods in the woods. Not exactly Gomer's gas station. How do you find all these places? Do you Google where the ghettos are or do you ask the cops?
The first shots of the civil war were fired here.
Such a shame what Sumter has turned into. Grew up in Sumter. It really started going down hill in the 90's.
Okay not trying to be negative but you are coming down on how the blacks live in there neighborhood, where do you live and how does your neighborhood look?
First of all I'm black, secondly I have several videos showing neighborhoods I lived in on the east side of Detroit, and the schools I attended, and I also narrate the videos.
Wow, actually not too bad. I will be moving here next month. Actually Shaw Air force base from Fort Rucker, AL
SHAW AFB IS A WORLD OF IT'S OWN...TRUST ME, YOU WN'T BE SEEING NON OF THIS...STAY ONN BROAD STREET & YOU GOOD
Hi Ms. Moore this was filmed on March 20, 2018, and I have live right near Shaw Air Force Base most of my life. Living in Cherryvale right now and it is 9/23/2021. I am wondering did you ever make to Sumter, S. C. ?
wow this is south sumter
xxPanterxx xoxo no just where blacks stay
Some those mobile homes are enormous looking.
Mickey Maus :SOME OF THOSE MOBILE HOMES ARE NICE ON THE INSIDE.
Oh yes they are big, once inside you would not think it is a mobile home, or Modular Home. But no good against Tornadoes, Hurricanes or Severe Thunderstorms with high winds, or like the "Great Flood" in October 2015!
Looks like Angry Grandpa and where he used to live in the trailer park
Shout out to Morris College it was real bad in the 90s....
It looks like an old quiet neighborhood, and boring.
This is just part of South Side I wish you would have shown Manning Avenue and South Main Street Harvin Street and Pinedale
I BET YOU THERES PLENTY OF DRUGS.
I used to live this is not how it seems everyone it's nice down there
Definitely didn't go to the right parts of sumter my hood was off Lafayette. Shooting, fighting and murdering is what I grew up around and it's still rough over there im in dalzell area now
Yes Tori it is everywhere. Unless you live in a gated community. But those are not that fun! I am familiar with Lafayette and Dazell I am in Cherryvale at the moment.
That's true, this area doesn't look to bad. but ofcourse Money is a issue here.
kjetil b money is an issue everywhere
kjetil b lived here for 2 years, no doesn't look bad from the outside but come out on these roads at night and it's a different scene, they won't mess with people who mind their business but if you go looking for trouble, sumter will hand trouble to you
it looks like it would flood in this area.
MikaelaSimone yea it flooded real bad here
when there are really good Thunderstorms or Severe Thunderstorms certain areas start rising up to the top of ones foot, but the "Great Flood " of 2015 was bad. But I live right across from Shaw Air Force Base and there was no flash flooding just little puddles then it would absorb into the ground then you go 4-5 miles in other areas and it was badly flooded, bridges washed out on several roads. Just couple months back one yard maybe a mile from where I live there are like multiple homes maybe a mobile home are two then a smaller home with additions or a single wide mobile home added on, that are in a line, I think it is many members of family living in them. There back yard where there Utility Shed and and dog houses were, was still partially flooded with stagnate water. I have not looked lately but it might still have standing water. I would not doubt it.
It’s a little run down, not alot of business but atleast it’s more cleaner than Georgia.
Really???? I have family in G.A. and I haved lived there on a couple of occasions I never seen really bad, bad areas, just in the city in or close to ATL. Where my Uncle Randy was murdered shot 3 times in the chest! His murder still to this day has not been caught. You know no grass will grow on his grave, It has been said once his killer is caught ( if ever) then grass will begin to grow on his grave. He is buried in my familys grave yard in Hemmingway S.C. (Georgetown S.C.)
He’s riding the same 4 blocks lol
Right over there on DIngle, Manning Ave. over by Bones store and Hoyt St.
I got madd family in Sumter, love to visit but couldn’t live there
Home of Ja Morant
I like ja but he is no where near from here. He is from dazzle its like the more country part of Sumter and like 20 mins away from south side.
@@machiavelli5462 he definitely near sumter bc I got home boas from sumter who know Ja personally
@@skiiii4444 yeah he fasho from the county . I'm in the middle of Sumter but Dalzell is Sumter but its past shaw air force base which is out there from the rest of Sumter. Merk city is really Sumter city but everywhere in the county got it bad spots. Basically. Dalzell got some rough parts too but the "hoods" with high violent crime rate is going to be south side and in town. My dad live across the street from the store in this video. Not gon say to much but I knew him too but it was only bizz related when we talked.
@@machiavelli5462 truuu
Dude this is just the boulevard
First off that ain’t the hood and second why you just driving if you ain’t seeing no one 🤔 and third Sumter people are pretty nice ghetto but nice
Invest in a 360 camera Charlie so you can film both sides at once instead of just one...
That is such a great idea, I wonder if there is a part 2 that says this is the other side of the street I just filmed,lol!!
Sumter ain't no damn hood
In some areas it is, I just moved from American Mobile Home Park behind American Bingo and Tony's guns and it got real bad there and in the Cherryvale area where I use to live when I was 10 on up to my teenage years and it has got real bad.
You stupid if you think Sumter doesn't have real hoods
Salute fam ✌🏽
I'm from Paxville SC like 15 minutes from Sumter. It hood there but it's not that bad
Y u ain't spell with c cuz u blood
@@tookiewilliams71 I aint with that banging shit to grown for that shit
Merk city is pretty awful somebody die every other week
@@tookiewilliams71 my cuz caught a body on the Southside 2 years ago. And beat the case
is there any gangs
Its a boring town and a really poor area. Drugs and gangs are what's popping cause everyone is broke. Its really rural. You can get a house super cheap. Get ready for some gentrification cause it won't be long before this is condos and outlet stores and micro breweries.
Yall steady sayin how sumter ain't hood but mind yall he aint when to da active areas cause I'm from dere so ik.
Exactly!
People saying that Sumter ain't good ain't never been to South Carolina lol ask the homies in the pen how good Sumter is I promise they'll tell you

Merk city, had a few close calls in this area. this city is pretty populated but very dangerous
sightseeing along these neighbourhoods is very entertaining! espesially for a Norwegian like me who lives in safe and healty enviroments. Good videos,road movie's?;)
Lovro Antolovic I hope you planned on being here to visit for at least a few weeks and have money to fly around. America is huge. It varies a lot, from geography to people.
Norway enviroment is safe? I thought it was cold as shit. Peace from east texas
there're bad places everywhere, even in Norway ;)
Home sweet home
Drunken Gamer are you a BEHLIN
Why do they not take better care of their landscaping? Not one of them had a garden? Seriously? With such a long growing season they could sell produce.
Africa the same,got all that land an can't grow shit,because they to lazy.
If they do that and make money it will deduct from the government check...can't have that
15 South raised in the backwoods
Same here....stayed on ramsey for 20ish years
I'm from Vegas idk about SC..would LOVE to eat some Bomb ass SOUL FOOD tho!! 😝😍😍
Merk city broad Street in the building
You could film a civil war documentary in these old looking hoods
The civil war started in SC and this places is still thriving.
This is where me and my dad would ride thru to see my cousin
Damn, don't look like the rural south is any better than the urban north
Douglas Kasten There are many urban areas in the South as well, just like there are many rural areas in the North. This isn’t hood, it’s a rural small town and as far as rural small towns go, they’re usually working poor to working class.
Nothing To See Here lots of absndonded & condemned houses, lots of trash strewn around, idk looks pretty hood to me & i've lived all over the US
Not to bad. Texarkana (Arkansas side) that shit is like a 3rd world country
KRZY !KZ Texarkana is pretty shitty in general outside of the I-30 corridor, especially by stateline
You aint from the merk if you aint know the whole or fuck with the real ones. Shout D and M and my dawg Chris
