The thing is, Oregon may be conservative, but I completely disagree with the "TRUMP cultist" part, the rural conservatives here are actually much more sensible here than most of the other states, and much nicer
I have been living in Roseburg for 10 years now. Originally from the most freedom loving state in the Union: Florida. I love it here in Roseburg, but I agree that there is definitely some nepotism going on. I have worked for both the private sector, and federal governments here in Roseburg and I have experience nepotism in both. It’s who you know not what you know. My biggest concerns right now is the explosion of homeless, drug overdose, increase in traffic, and increase of cost of living. Hoping things change soon and even out. Other than that I love Roseburg. It’s a great town with great hard working people which btw since that gentleman called the locals Trump cultist. What that guy doesn’t realize is the people of rural Oregon are not represented in the politics of Portland, Salem, and Eugene or like Mike Rowe would say…That is the way I heard it.
I like that you give people the opportunity to share their own opinions on things, good and bad. I enjoy hearing their honest answers and insights. Very down to earth, realistic and basic, real-life responses instead of a staged advertising campaign that is not a true reflection of Roseburg as a whole. I enjoy watching your videos. They bring things to light that are good to know from downright real people who are not play acting. Well done.
I think the fact he brought it up proves that yes, there are plenty of Trump flags, but hey, he is obviously on the other side of the fence. Showing that there are plenty from both sides around here. I try to stay out of it 🙃😅
@@TheBeckhamGroupThe difference is the sheer amount of physical propaganda people spread around... And those flags on the trucks are a massive safety hazard. I would give a truck with flags on it extra space just because there's a good chance a flag will fly off. The lady about the cyclists was correct, also. Bicyclists are given a lot more room nowadays than before but that's like in 2010 ish I used to get garbage thrown at me when bicycling on the parts of the park trail near the roads, and now people actually give me more room. Those who said nepotism are definitely hitting the right note though. It's very difficult for locals who aren't 'in the in' around here to start local businesses.
I think most would say Douglas County is conservative, not necessarily Oregon as a whole. Eugene and Portland areas are definitely known for being the opposite.
@@TheBeckhamGroup Makes perfect sense, especially to this Californian, as our own population centers affect the rest of the state. It's just so frustrating. Your own "Greater Idaho" movement bears watching and serves as a warning to those state legislatures who progressively step on our rights.
@@TheBeckhamGroup I agree. Rural areas in Oregon are mostly conservative but there is plenty of places in Oregon such as Portland that make national news all the time for being extremely liberal. It seems pretty well mixed to me, even in the rural areas now.
@@HistoryOnTheLoose I think they should pay a little more attention to what the rural Oregonians want as well and try to represent all the people who live here and not just one group. I think Oregon's industry has been hard hit by some of the policies they have brought put in and if they are going to take away job's they should try harder to encourage other industry in to replace it (maybe more Tourism) since it is really beautiful here and we are on the I-5 corridor.
Good video. The one thing when the guy said the coast was an hour away. It's actually closer to 2. I moved to Coos Bay last year. It's about an 80 mile drive down route 42 and you're on the 101. I've taken some day trips to Roseburg and driven through a number of times.
You've asked, "What questions do you want me to ask the people of Roseburg." I would like you ask people what types of fun things they would support if investors wanted to start up some things in the area. What ideas do they have that Roseburg would be a good place to bring people out to mingle and get acquainted or enjoy doing throughout the year? I went to Helen Georgia which is a cute little Bavarian Themed town in the Appalachian Mountains. They have some very fun things for people to do there. Bob sled mountain rides. Inner tubing down the river for groups of tourists with outdoor restaurants overlooking the river. Camps with rope swing bridges and obstacle courses and many very cute shops that offer a large variety of specialty gifts and items and many events. It is cold there in the winters too, colder then here and it rains at least as much as it does here, but people still come from all over to visit all year round.
Honestly I was surprised at the responses we got! But I agree, the rain isn’t so bad around here. And if I remember correctly, I believe we are below the national average.
@@TheBeckhamGroup I moved to Bend on a year that they had a record snowfall and had to drive to and from work on Hwy. 97 during rush hour every day in the snow and ice and decided the rain was not that bad here. It beats putting on chains or studded tires and freezing your behind off.
Roseburg has always been a sleepy, conservative retirement kind of town. Big city life, crime and political activism has no place here, just people that want to be left alone.
Growing up here there was a motocross track, plenty of places to go riding, a lot of us kids rode dirt bikes. Now with some growth and a lot of private land most areas we rode or went swimming are gone, access is very limited for fire danger also. It would be nice to have an off road area, instead of having to go to the dunes to ride.
i grew up here and currently live in ashland but going to move back there in about a year. Living in the medford area is def different. I would say for the most part roseburg is a quite town yah it is boring but thats why i learned to play basketball and disc golf to meet people. the north is a great river the south is gross tho. one big pain of living in the medford area is it takes me 25 minutes to get to work so one way while in roseburg you can drive through the entire town it 10 minutes which was nice. people complain about the homeless but they are everywhere no matter where you go. i noticed that the people are way more kind in roseburg and the traffic is way better it freaking sucks here. if you were to move to roseburg i would say try for the outskirts like winchester or green, winston area. If you are dead set on being in town i would say try to avoid moving to the downtown and pinestreet area alot of tweakers there.
Nice vid! Sums up the basic pros and cons. Go out and talk to people! There’s a fair amount of diversity if you’re actively involved in events. There could definitely be more but that’s probably just part of being a smaller town. Anyway it’s good enough for me and quite a bit others at least for now…
Asking transplants about my town. I lived here almost my entire life over 50 years, hope you realize that many people out and about Roseburg, shopping, etc actually don't live within city limits. People that shop, etc at Roseburg come into town from many sprawled outlying areas around Roseburg such as Green, Winston, Riddle, Dillard, Glide, Sutherlin, Lookingglass, Umpqua, Melrose, Canyonville, Azalea, Glendale, Days Creek, Rice Valley, Yoncalla, Elkton, Oakland, Tri City, Myrtle Creek areas. Those saying there's not much to do aren't locals that been living Douglas County. Some shown in this video only been here short time and not familiar with the area(s). And as for the Trump Cultists remark I can vouch for majority residents here we rather have Trump than dementiated Biden or his puppet master Obama.
Oregon is not conservative. And the civilian federal criminal defendant released on bond is not a choice to vote. Donald Trump has disqualified himself.
I have been looking at many places in Oregon to possibly move to, but... It seems like every place, whether Eugene, Corvallis or on the cost, and now Roseburg ALL have these things in common... Homelessness galore, overpriced housing/apartments that are extremely hard to find and jobs are very difficult as well to find. NOT a good combination of prospects when making a huge relocation. The scenery is absolutely gorgeous, but the rest of the Oregon way of life is down right depressing. The problem is the Governor/government of the state of Oregon is of the Liberal mindset. Every Liberal ran city or state all have these things in common... High Homelessness, high prices for living and high drug and crime, which goes hand in hand. I guess my possible dream of living in Oregon will only be that, a dream. Depressing lifestyle of the afore mentioned.
I think there are a lot of nice small towns in Oregon including Roseburg but liberal policies bring homelessness, legalization of drugs, high crime and high cost of living. It’s ruining a great beautiful state. Very very unfortunate.
Conservatives don’t know how to solve these problems in the first place. Liberals at least try some out of the box policy ideas. Republicans just choose to ignore all the homelessness and crime. That’s why republican states have the highest violent crime rates.
Yes as long as you arent parading down the street trying to pander to yoyng kids like in eugene and portland. You do you, at your own house and not in public
The thing is, Oregon may be conservative, but I completely disagree with the "TRUMP cultist" part, the rural conservatives here are actually much more sensible here than most of the other states, and much nicer
I have heard that from clients of ours moving from other areas as well. Thanks for the comment!

Thanks for the comment! We have another interview style video coming out next week. Stay tuned! 😉
Oregon is the second most conservative state I have ever lived in, with Idaho being the first. I like both.
I think the fact he brought it up proves that yes, there are plenty of Trump flags, but hey, he is obviously on the other side of the fence. Showing that there are plenty from both sides around here. I try to stay out of it 🙃😅
He wouldn’t mind Portland, Eugene or Lincoln City.
That Trump flag hurt my feelings. He probably hates that he's mis gendered. His pronouns are @#$$@.

@@TheBeckhamGroup OK, Roseburg is still number one on our move to list

Not like it used to be.
The rain starts between Curtin and Cottage Grove. Douglas County is fairly dry, especially Roseburg and south.

Is there a Roseburg college?
Umpqua Community College
@@niteshimmeror9847 UCC for the win! lol I'm graduating from there next term
Yes, we used to call it UCLA.."Umpqua College Late Afternoon". In fact, I used to wear a UCLA tee-shirt.
Thank you Anthony very eye opening

No it's just that liberal towns treat homeless like people and not like trash.

Just get rid of Portland( multinomah county ) and Oregon you got yourself a red state
Possibly, if you included Eugene and Salem.
@@niteshimmeror9847Well, it's a good start.
Incorrect.
Do you think it is a safe place for a single female senior?
Whenever I drive through Portland it's before ten in the morning, I do that to get through while most of the liberals are still in bed.
Trump Cultist...
Ohh but Biden.., that's just a choice.
No Cultism there. 👍

Why?
That would be the first I've heard of that 😂
@@TheBeckhamGroup Well there you go. You learned something new today.😁
Never heard that, been 74 years
Roseburg needs sports facilities like medford... more $$$ into children's sports...
100% agree! We need more for kids and families in general.
Spend your own money. It is not the government's job to provide recreation and entertainment for your offspring.
Go somewhere else where the women are nicer and better looking...😅
Jeez... 🙃 Where, Florida? 😂
Is the area LGBTQ friendly?
Yes as long as you arent parading down the street trying to pander to yoyng kids like in eugene and portland. You do you, at your own house and not in public
No, its not, they will discriminate against you if they find out you’re LGBTQ.
