I surely know you're not black I'm a black native and I know any real black person who is born in Florida will tell you about the racism in their towns this guy speaks the truth but today's black started fighting back in the sixties until this day but don't go trying to live where it's not peaceful or profitable for us
@paulchandler9060 I don't consider my self black I just said that because I was trying to respond and get back to work but brotha neither one of us is black negro or colored. That is a label that colonizers put on us. We are natives to this land. Jessie Jackson and his people came up with the term "African American". Im not one of those either. We are the real indigenous people here. We're I live in St Johns county all my family has been here for generations and I'm 39 and I will never leave here. It's were I'm raising my family as well but I get what you are saying my brotha
@paulchandler9060 This is my second time posting this because it mysteriously disappeared. Wonder why🤔 but we are not black negro or colored. We are the natives of this land brotha. The real indigenous people. Black is a label that the colonizers put on us. The term "African American" was created by Jessie Jackson and his crew. Where I'm from in St Johns county all my family has been here for generations and I'm 39 and don't plan on leaving and I'm raising my family here but I understand what you are saying my brotha.

That's because all the white southerners left south Florida because they couldn't stand the Cubans. If they could tolerate them they wouldn't have left.
The FloGrown population is just sick and tired of people coming to Florida and talk shit about Florida. Could you imagine doing that in another place you moved to? It's like move back to where you're from we like it here, and we as Floridians as a community are very welcoming until disrespected and looked down upon.
I'm from Central Florida lived here for many years. As an African American I see and know that this video is telling the truth. What it looks like there is a direct connection between White racism, White poverty and white Drug overdose. I also know a lot about the workforce here in Florida. African Americans are constantly blocked out of work and job opportunities.
Why don't you just admit it Jose? You create stories about how you are not racist yet you are so bigoted against poor people or blue collar people. You like to show negative aspects of the human condition and you capitalize on it.
Turned off this video in less than 3 minutes. Narrator needs to look into his own deep seated racism. Most educated, sensible people know worldwide, people of different cultures gather together, live together. The race hatred was reignited back in 2008. Although I realize lots of people have limited attention spans to see how this happened.
Looks like the citations are from demographic statistics on Wikipedia. I think if you are going to make claims like this you should have some better objective facts instead of opinions.
Im black and i dont see most of these cities as more racist then anywhere else. Not saying they dont have racism but a lot of those places are just regular
Monkey Island actually has a little house with Reese monkeys that live on the island. It was not named for the reason you are stating.. Just the facts my friend.
I will have to disagree with that comment. The south isn’t racist at all. In fact we just see people as people. The problem is race baiters like to say oh the south is racist when in actually y’all are racist.
In fact if you go to world population review and search most racist states, southern states are in the bottom. I get it however it doesn’t fit your narrative nor the maker of this videos narrative.
@@WesleySasser-xj9yj i lived in alabama, and wanted to stay.. so why did i have to leave? get outta here.. you cant pull the wool over my head or quiet my voice i know what happened dont remind me so i dont say more.
I own a home in philly & in the Tampa area & travel back in forth threw out the years & let me tell you FL is a cake walk compared to up north, Philly makes any place in FL look like Disney land, Jose i like the channel & all but i think you need to relax with all the racist, drugs & crime rate videos leave it to CNN & Fox news your going a little over board with it now, plus i have never in my life experienced racism in FL but yet i do every single day in Philadelphia, Good luck with the channel buddy
There's no where in FL that has an area like Kensington in Philly. But if you're in Jax and driving out East or down Moncrief there's a high chance you might get shot if you're not from there and you're slacking. Same thing if you're in Miami and rolling around Hialeah or Little Haiti or basically anywhere in North Miami. Or in Pine Hills in Orlando or off Nebraska Ave/Temple Terrace in Tampa. Plus Philly got some nice spots too. I got some brotherly love from strangers in South Philly while I saw open racism at Publix and Waffle Houses in FL 🤣🤣🤣
Did You Honestly Have The Nerve To Tell Him To Leave It Up To CNN And Fox To Tell A Story Of Racism In Florida... Stop It!!!! Jose Is Giving His Non-Biased Opinion About How Things Really Are... No Filters, No Propaganda ... Just Raw Truth... Truth Is Like Light To Vampires... They Hate It... Long Live Jose.
I try telling people this lived in south jersey and worked in Camden and Philly couple times a week I have seen more signs of racism up there then I ever have here in Florida most of what’s said is not true just because a town has little or no black families doesn’t make it racist I delivered in yankee town and everyone seems quite nice this guy is saying things that just are not true it’s a shame the way he constantly puts down west central Florida he needs to stop spreading lies and drum up hate between people he is race baiting in my opinion
Born and raised in Philly for 37 years, never experienced racism one time. Moved to Florida, been here two years, felt every ounce of racism since I’ve been here!
My family been living in Brooksville for over 30yrs and we been just fine. Once you get to know the people around you they are always friendly. Just like everywhere you might have your bad apple.
A few years ago I was at an older biker party but there was locals and others. Just no black or brown. There was guys recruiting for white supremacy groups and joked about running out blacks from their neighborhoods. It was really gross.. I was working a mobile bar and food set up and was extremely uncomfortable.. I'd been around plenty of old racist biker gangs in central Florida, but brooksville gave me seriously bad vibes. It was the younger, angry, almost illiterate guys that act a different way in their own crowds compared to public.. Also met a black man in croom that hated other black people.. that was new.
I"m an African American retired female seriously considering relocating to Pensacola. I have located a local realtor and booked a flight in 2 weeks to access the area and look at property. I have literally been doing research for months, your video educated me on the racism that exist there. I am devastated....... white sandy beaches are my happy place, it is such a shame that in 2023 as a person of color I can't just pack my bags and move without considering the impact of my decision based on the color of my skin.
Don’t do it. Unless you can handle it. It won’t be healthy. Stay away from racists. They are full of hate which comes from fear. Look at sports. That’s why they need guns to make it a fair fight. I’m in Cape Canaveral. I’m not even black, just off-white (parents from Egypt). If I don’t leave I will bring back lynchings (white lynchings). But two wrongs don’t make a right. Internalizing the hate served by racists causes cancer.
I hear ya. Florida isn't very nice to the LGBTQ community these days either (proud mama here.) South Florida tends to be less prejudiced. We're in the Keys and it isn't too bad here.
I have been living in Hernando county last 7 years. It was good until DeFacist was elected by Cuban migrants who mistakenly thought democrats were like Castro. Hope they got educated on how republicans are racist bigots
Why would a rich Arab say America is racist. When he’s aligned with the racism to begin with. He breaks bread with the evil bastards. Try again. AmeriKKKa welcomes Arab businessmen because they know a lot of 💵 is behind that, and most Arabs practice racism their damn selves.
Well even in Cuba they have a lot of racism there as well. The lighter skinned cubans are racists to the darker skinned ones and they carry that to the USA. Not surprising thats why most who come here that are light skinned vote republican in elections they vote in. So the relationship between blacks and cubans if strenuous at best depending who they are and where they came from. Skin color still bothers folks no matter where they live or move to. Racism is learned and doesnt go away unless they make a choice to stop being racists. That goes for anyone anywhere.
@@Friocuidando I’ll have to disagree on that. Racism is racism. If you deny and or treat others differently asked on skin color……it’s racism. I know there is a definition that differs between the two but imo it’s the same thing especially here in the USA
What you’re saying about Cubans isn’t true. I know a lot of Cubans, most of them dark skinned, and I have yet to meet a Cuban that actually immigrated here that doesn’t vote republican. If you ask them why they’ll all give you the same answer: because they saw what communism did to their country and they don’t want to go through it again here. They’re not stupid.
Exactly Cuba’s communist govt claims there is no state sponsored racism but if you look at the top ruling branch you see no blacks there. Funny how no one discusses this point .
This place was heaven till some one told people this was the land of milk and honey till everyone moved here. I live in a small town that didn't know a drug harder than pot. Then the villages came and their family now we have people breaking into your house while your home, OD on the side walk. Kids can no longer go outside to play. What took 5 minutes to drive to now talks an hour. Insurance prices went way up thanks to all the bad drivers that moved here, can'tget into a spring anymore unless you show up at 5am. Worse part is we now have human trafficking.
Baby Girl, stop blaming people who moved to Florida. Blame your state for ALLOWING chaos to happen. Your state doesn’t give a damn about you, that’s the problem. Your state government are the biggest criminals, not somebody from Ohio. Florida isn’t and never was yours to begin with. Imagine how the Natives felt in Florida when Europeans came in murdering, robbing, and rayping. Destroying their “heaven.” Florida will only get worse, so either keep crying, deal with it, or move
they scarred the land up there for sure. but regardless you cant hate people. and the OD rates for Floridians isnt better than for those moving here if you didnt know.
@ivan72087 horrible. lol. but every place is what you make of it. my uncle lives in orange park outside Jacksonville and the area has more of a southern feel than central and southern florida
Theres nice neighborhoods sprinkled throughout but its a mess of crime, some areas are more isolated and safe but mostly closer to the beaches is safer. Jacksonville aint bad if you know where you are, and you can live close to beaches for cheaper than any other city. That being siad, the school is system is bad, and the job pay are lacking, wouldnt raise a family there, but its good if you want to grow a career@@jameskarins1717
Yeah, run down I guarantee you couldn't afford to move to one of those towns They don't look like that because they're poor, it's just a more laid-back lifestyle, but these people are far from destitution, I seen it on RUclips it must be true.. lol Thanks for your assessment.
@@scottliegel855 I live in Clearwater. There are a few areas that look like that here also, but for the most part people try to keep the areas around their homes and businesses nice and clean. There is a difference between being laid back and lazy..ijs
We less than 60 yr old Native Floridians have been raised up and gone to school with Black, Cuban, Italian and Puerto Rican people all our lives played lil league the whole 9,,,, I'm 58 and it was like this all my life
you have a skewed view Drug use isn’t racist. All people have a choice to drugs or not regardless of race. A town that’s already full of settled people of any race will be most likely filled with people of the same color regardless of race because people generally live with the same type people and all you have to do is look at all animals on earth to see this. Race is a factor as people generally hang out with the same race regardless of skin color. A rebel flag doesn’t make you racist,, it indicates you May be racist but you could be a strong believer in Freedom and want to REBEL against authority. I own rebel flags and don’t think the color of skin means anything. It’s the color of your heart that matters. If I had to pick a most racist race it would be black BUT that doesn’t mean the majority of black people are racist. It just means the most racist people I’ve met traveling Florida into all types of communities as a 30yr paramedic and firefighter and nature explorer are the black low income people who blame white people for all their failures but if you pay attention, you’ll find that almost everyone who is poor and life sucks blame somebody else for their problems. I’ve lived in Jacksonville and the Tampa Bay area and I had family in the 1860s north west of Gainesville. My families been in Florida since 1859 and according to census data from 1860 we are to 300 acre farms and 12 slaves. Unfortunately, a lot of family history was lost and all those people are dead so I can’t tell you what the specifics were except that both my grandfather and his brother walked away from the farm many many years ago. Well, owning other people is just a lie as you can’t really own a person that is not how it was seen to a lot of people worldwide prior to the 1900s and slavery is still see it is OK by too many people. However, back in the 1800s it was a part of life. If you couldn’t raise your crops, then people died without food, and labor, was needed to do that. This included many black plantation owners who owned their own black slaves. You should do some research on Florida under Spanish control. They used to cut 1 foot off Indians, so they wouldn’t run away. Florida has a horrible history just like the rest of the country and just like the rest of the world when it comes to how some people were treated whether they were witches or slaves and slaves came in many colors not just black. Fortunately, most humans have evolved, but some still live in the past and blame others for their problems. It’s pretty simple to pick the right direction. If you work for it and earn your life be proud. If you did not earn it, there is no reason to be proud of it, and none of us earned the color of our skin. All of our ancestors, including the Native American Indians, came from somewhere else at some point in time when there were no laws telling us we could or couldn’t be here but there are laws now, so those laws need to be followed, although they could definitely be changed to make more sense and be more human. After all that, the bottom line is FLORIDA is a pretty good place although I rarely go into Miami because honestly there’s just too much crime and that’s actually true of every large city in America where people are squashed together , but in the country side outside the city limits most people in Florida are nice.
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS I’m Cuban and was born and raised in Miami. I lived in Kendall, sweetwater, the roads, Shenandoah, and coral gables. I’m 46 now. Miami is NOT safe. Keep believing those statistics you read. Come live here for more than a year and tell me it’s the safest city. Lol.
@@havoc1zero Yup exactly. I used to live in the Kendall area too and while there are nice areas of Miami you never really are away from the crime element in all of Dade county. You are constantly reminded to lock your doors at night and never go out alone at night to any gas station or store. Oh it gets even worse as you get more into the city of Miami where they have drive by shootings almost daily. I actually moved out of Miami 13 years ago to another so-called "dangerous" town and I can tell everyone it still pales in comparison to Miami's crime stats.
@@saraperry2865 Broward is more expensive and jobs more competitive but the vibes are good. if you got income or share a home with family its doable. I think bradenton is legit too.. just stay outta the city core. our beaches here are nice. Sarasota nice too, but north sarasota is our Moncrief just as long as your not in the bad parts overall the city is awesome.

He said that but you weren't listening. He showed you the data. Are upset because he pointed out how law enforcement's over policing of the AA community is scapegoating AA's while ignoring white folk's substance abuse crisis? Stop being triggered when presented with data you want to ignore.
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS Sorry you feel that way. If I felt that way, I would’ve still not had a college degree after failing every odd grade in school and then I probably would have been a draft dodger on drugs, but I volunteered for three tours in Vietnam and came back disabled. I’m from Louisiana. All my friends were black. In Vietnam half my friends were black and Hispanic. And today I choose to live in a black neighborhood, plus my daughter-in-law is from Honduras and I have two grandkids who are Honduran-American. Have you ever thought when you open your mouth that maybe you don’t know what you’re talking about? The word “racist” was coined by a person who wasn’t strong enough to stand up like a man on his own two feet. So in order to be better, drop the word, and fly like a bird. Be a screaming eagle.
Hearing how bad racism and regionalism is in Fort Myers Beach is really shocking to me. People ignored the evacuation orders and lost their lives!! That's bananas. I'm in pompano, born and raised in Boca, and I'm just happy we weren't listed here. We have it good over here. I'm planning on starting my very own nonprofit to help the hungry and help single moms living in the hood and you were my biggest inspiration.
@@thedirtybubble9613 yeah, you can have your opinion, but you don't have my experience. You'd probably feel better if you took that break and get yourself a soda. It's hot out there!
I lived in Fort Myers since 1980 and have seen this. You should do some research on downtown Fort Myers. It is said to be one of the top 5 most segregated cities in the US. Back in the day, the 60"s I believe there was a place downtown that was the only place where blacks and whites could gather together upstairs to play and listen to Jazz music.
i know fort myers well, and yes it is messed up. i have met plenty of racist people here of all colors. but its nothing like the OTHER towns on this list.
Wrong Houston Texas is the largest city in the South with a metro area population of over 8 million people. Also it takes almost 2 hrs to go from extreme North to South in Houston metro and surrounding areas as it does east to west. Houston is in the south not the west.
In Miami Dade, there’s a lot of racism between Hispanics groups , especially with the Cubans and the Venezuelans that really don’t like each other. There’s a lot of conspiracy theories of Venezuelans saying that their country government was over by the Cuban intelligence agency to work for the Venezuelan government and also they are Nicaraguans that don’t like Hondurans,Costa Ricans,Cubans,Mexicans and Salvadorans.And also there is a lot of Colombians that don’t like Cubans,Nicaraguans And Argentines.
Great explanation of the different types of racism, a very clear and concise explanation, but of course most will hear what you are saying without listening and understanding it. Keep up the good work. Much needed if we truly want to get past all of this ignorance.
Amigo, I'm impressed you didn't bring up Cape Coral as a resident of Cape Coral. There's a lot of hate towards the Mexicans that I witnessed. I can 100% vouch. Fort Myers Beach is truly like that
Agree I got jump in Cape Coral FL by 8 KKK on Del Prado and pine Island Rd...in that bar by Albertsons and steak and shake....i literally fist fought my way out.....
No, Sorry… THAT’S A LIE. Africans were dwelling on EVERY continent besides Antarctica. When you read the descriptions of the people first encountered by Europeans in the Americas, they’re described as Ethiopian-like, Negroes. Not saying the Asiatic-Indians, known as Natives, didn’t exist and weren’t prominent. Because they definitely were. But please learn true history and realize the Black Man from Africa was the Original Man on Earth. Came from the dirt, hence his skin tone. He was a master of the seas, and was traveling the world. There’s a natural current off the west coast of Africa that takes you to America, same one hurricanes travel. Africans knew this for centuries before Columbus.
I would say its very hard to know who was here first. Always finding new stuff. They found a new Indian village in NW Arkansas I know up to 10k years old I think 7 to 10 said. Always new buried stuff find
@@user-vr3mr5eu7y It ain’t hard to get educated, use common sense, and learn from other people besides the one’s that control the schooling in America. It’s not hard at all. That “10,000.. 50,000 years ago” age tracing is VERY flawed. Those scientist and archaeologists are using tests that were specifically designed by them, to age artifacts and the earth by their own bias measures. Knowing how old the sediment is impossible, truly impossible. These are the same people that will tell you Earth is Millions of years old. We will never know the entire truth, but we damn sure can come close. We are all born with the knowledge of everything, the truth is in our DNA 🧬… Lol, that might go over y’all head tho.
Didn't know that about Fort Myers beach and i grew up in Milton which was kinda a mix of racism. As a father im trying to humble myself and not be racist to show my children that everyone is equal, my job is primarily Hispanic descent and have no problem with anyone unless provoked, i try to get along with anyone and everyone, i really enjoy your videos and it is definitely a different perspective, thank you.
Being from Brevard county fl I will tell you that it doesn't matter what color you are, if you are in the hood the cops are going to harass you. Most of tue violent crimes that take place in the county happen in those areas. It's where you're at .. not who you are. Also I find it weird that you made no mention of actual sundown towns that are legitimate concerns for black ppl. Such as Cedar Key, Fl. Which is marketed by tourism as a cute little fishing town with shoppes and restaurants over the water. Unfortunately they don't tell you that if you are of color you need to be outta town by sundown. You should do better research before making a list like this, because somebody might think if they avoided the place on your list they are safe, which absolutely not true.... don't quit your day job.
I guess I've just been lucky. I lived in Jacksonville on and off probably a total of 15 years. I've lived a few years in Tampa, Fort Myers also. I've lived in Lake City, FL for some years as well. The main place I saw racism was when I lived in north GA where whites and blacks rarely ever mingled outside of businesses. I know there is plenty of racism though because I hear about it from other people and it is unfortunate. Everyone has the right to be racist though, everyone has the right to dislike people based on race as that is pretty much a human right but that doesn't make it the right way to live one's life though. Racism really is a form of hatred and life is too short to waste it on hating people.
@@kevineubanks859It really is what you make of it. I'm not black so I can't truly speak on how it is for a black person living in Jacksonville but all of the black people I knew just worked and lived life like everyone else.
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS a lot of places have drug problems right now. That’s not the only factor to take into consideration when evaluating a city. Anyhow, what does the overdose rate have to do with Pensacola being racist? Drug addiction isn’t a race issue lmao.
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS What does drug overdose rate have to do with racism? That's what has a lot of us scratching our heads. Are meth and opioid users racist?
I was born in Florida and still live here .I live in St Petersburg and I’ve never seen any issues at all. We all get along and try to be there for each other no matter what color you are or where you’re from.
I remember the movie Rosewood from the late 1990s. It's a successful black town in 1920s Florida. A woman cheating on her husband, with another white man claimed an N-word raped her to cover it up. The enraged townsfolk go on a rampage and destroy the town. They also used to accuse random blacks minding their own business of owing money, and force them to work.
Ocoee, FL - 1920 massacre. The degenerates murdered Black folks because they voted … that’s REAL RACISM. Those voters were WWI Veterans, who fought for America. Growing up, we thought Mississippi was in a league of their own when it came to devil worshipping. But Florida’s evil ass history is a close 2nd, might even be tied.
I was told by a person from up north that this did not happen. I told them their house was built where rosewood was. I lived out there too. Sometimes we would see blck people run through the yard and no one was there. Now the villagers are seeing them too. I grew up here this really was Paradise. Not any more.
I have watched your videos and I appreciate how much you have improved in explaining your content and I didn't know about some of the problems that exist in Florida. You did a good job on this video thank you.
My guess is these communities are probably older communities. You should also look into the average age of these communities to see if there is a pattern.
Pointing out the problem areas of Florida is useful. In spite of the negative places brought up in this video they are mostly small population areas other than Duval County. The vast large population centers of Florida, (Miami, Tampa, St. Pete, Orlando, Ft. Lauderdale, Tallahassee, Key West) are filled with people who just what to get along, so they can live in peace and afford life. On the death rate on drug overdose; I have a question: Since you have to use the drug to die from overuse, wouldn't the death rate just show users, not sellers? Many deaths are new users and the police have no way to guess new buyers or 'gifted' drug use. Sellers are easier to pick out of the crowd, perhaps. I think many people who live in Florida, came here because it is accepting, And Florida keeps accepting. Florida really likes people from all area of the world and it is fun to inteact with all the great cultures that have moved here.
Blaming drugs is craaaazy. Fl is horrible & racist & working on becoming even more racist day by day. Yes there is racism everywhere but trust me, it’s deep here & they all got pew pews
My family own American beach it was a black beach in north Florida now its almost Nothing they took most from my family its a shame what it looks like now .... north Florida is the worst part ..... great video thanks for the tru knowledge on Florida 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽💙💙💙🌴🌴🌴🌴
First of all, Homossassa, is in an area that is deemed a water & wildlife conservation preserve. There are people from all over the U.S. who have relocated there, and respect the State’s Laws and Regulations that are beneficial to the survival of the aquatic and land botanical plants, and wildlife species indigenous to that area of Florida. Racist toward anyone, any color who want to invade it with their life style of drug addictions, criminal activity, disrespect of Law and turn it into trashy, unsanitary, homeless camping garbage dump. If that is based on racism, they would not deny the favored race from doing it, now would they. If the majority of crimes committed by the people seen on security camera footage at the time, and/or arrested are seen to be one certain racial skin color, it is definitely accurate to associate that race to being most likely to post a threat to community’s safety of the citizens of all racial ethnicity, who are trying to keep a safe and law abiding place to live. So, ya, call out the problem and guilty race. That’s telling the truth.
All Races Commits Crimes... Blacks Are Just Criminalized More Than Other Groups ... The Media Propaganda Machine Are Racist And You Justify Being Hostile To Blacks Or Other People Based Off Racist Media Propagandists 💯
Thank you so much for this. Most of these cities I've never heard of but being that I want to visit a few major cities in Florida, I want to make sure I don't even drive thru any of these places. Thanks!
I will always say, Get rid of drugs and a lot of these problems will go away. I honestly believe some in our government have allowed drugs to be brought in so Black folks would self-destruct. In that's not racism I don't know what is ! Some northerners, not all need to change their attitude when moving down here and get over their bias. I've encountered some that were as racist as some southerners, so sad. I' m thankful growing up in Bunnell that we got along.
If you hate it so much, leave. I'm Hispanic, and not one time in my life have I cried "racism" for wherever I find myself or my success or failure. We are selling our house in Nebraska and moving to Ocala. Not worried a bit. I don't have a victim mentality. If anyone is "consumed with hate" it's you.
I respect what you’re trying to do in these videos, but I feel like I have to correct you on something here: if someone who loves America, and by extension Florida, is your measuring stick on who is a racist, then you’ve set the bar far below underground. It’s perfectly fine and acceptable to say that you don’t like people from certain states in general. It could be for cultural reasons, regional differences or political reasons (which is probably the most likely reason). As a native New Yorker myself who was born and raised there, I would argue that rich sheltered trust fund kids who moved there from the west coast throughout the 2000s effed up my home state pretty bad. That’s not racism. If you’re assuming that only one race of people moved to Florida, you would still be wrong. It cheapens the word worse than it already is when you apply it to a circumstance like this. And we also need to stop assuming someone’s intentions when they use words like “ours” or “they”. You can’t just assume you know what they mean by “they” our “ours”. Go ahead and allow them to clarify and let them say the race if that’s what is meant. Let them confirm their racism. A true racist will straight up say it to your face without hesitation or respect to how you’ll feel. They usually don’t dance around what they mean. Assuming stranger’s intent is racism is what causes so much division and ignorance in our country.
I grew up in Deltona , Fl and I’ve experienced racism as well as my brother and my mother . I was determined to move and was able to do that . Got my degree and moved out.
what you haven't mentioned is tenants and owners of property! owners have an investment and tenants don't ! thats one reason why people feel they own the place, they do!! tenants come and go, if they dont like it, move on!
If you pay taxes you don’t own shit. The government can take it away when they please. Nice way to deflect racism tho. Your comments are ignorant and void of truth. Especially the one about thriving Black neighborhoods in Florida. That’s the whole point of this video, there are no thriving places for the Black community …smh, that’s the point of the damn video. And that’s the result of systematic racism. But low I.Q. can’t comprehend that
Steinhatchee FL is definitely racist. Used to deliver beer there and between there and Keaton Beach I could literally go all day and not see one other black person. They would tell me to leave the beer by the door. I couldn't even go in the cooler. When walked in it used to feel like the music stopped and everybody looked at me like "what in tarnation. Y'all letting walk around free now"
I grew up in Titusville in the 60's/early 70's and was in school when integration happened. It was a nightmare...the blacks were very militant and disruptive. We had a race riot at Astronaut HS and the cops had to be called and showed up with guns out to end it...would have been '74. We used to drive up to Mims (just north of Titusville) and watch the KKK burn a cross right off of US1 at the then closed old Stuckey's restaurant location.
NOOOOO, thats EXTRA. I added the police reports AFTER the video was made. you can tell the video was split many times. i went back and made the video shorter, thats when the police reports came in. I recorded the audio first. that's not how i made this video.
@southern life , at least in alabama , and i will take what you said about the place is true . you could earn a living , if you were willing to work . even the people with money in florida don't want to pay you , and will try and scam poor people and hard working people . and i agree , with the latins tat were rebuilding fort myers beach , fix your own damn house .
i rather be broke here than rich in Alabama. its a shame our state helps companies exploit the poor.. not the poor get ahead. Alabama do take care to provide jobs.. but its only for THEM.. were screwed HERE or THERE as latinos.
I thought you hated Florida. Did a video regarding moving to Georgia where the people were friendly. You seem to have difficulty keeping focus and remembering past statements.
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS @southern life , if a honest fair minded person moves to florida , you will be broke . as for lehigh acres , who would not like living in a place , where a ''city '' of over a hundred and fifty thousand people has no real stores . i was in southwest florida , after a hurricane , and you had people waiting in line for gas ,and you had your sw florida elites filling up their boats . and as far as racism goes ,sw florida , as per your list is tops. the only reason latin people move to sw florida , is a lot of middle class people cant afford a decent home in miami . and they will see miami-dade and family , once in a while .
I am Latina just because African American are naturally kind does not mean the Cuban are not bias! That’s just Black people’s nature! No the less this is crazy all these information coming from your video. Thanks for the video
I stumbled upon this hoping that this was like a factual video but no it's just you stating your opinion so i guess you could have your own news network like fox cnn nbc abc msnbc and the rest of the other networks because you're just reporting your own opinions
Miami is not any better. You talk about regionalism but it seems like you think that Miami is way better than any other place in Florida when that's simply not the case. I am also from Miami, Hispanic (family from Peru), and let me tell you I've experienced quite a lot of racism from Cubans and other Latinos there. I found that a lot of Cubans are hostile towards Blacks and Latinos with more indigenous origins (Peruvians, Mexicans, Salvadorans, Nicaraguans, Bolivians, etc). While it's true the areas in this video are not the friendliest or most open-minded, neither is Miami. The sad thing is that racism can come from members of any race. I spent some years living in NYC and it's also very racist up there. I had problems with Blacks and Dominicans up there who would discriminate against me. So it's not just White folks. BTW I am not saying all Cubans are like this but I am shocked at the amount of them who are. My sister's fiancee is Cuban and is one of the nicest guys around. Lots of Cubans are good people. However don't act like Cubans and Miami are saints. Also racism is a big problem in Cuba itself. Read the autobiography of Celia Cruz and see when she had to go through when she was growing up in Havana.
In Miami Dade, there’s a lot of racism between Hispanics groups , especially with the Cubans and the Venezuelans that really don’t like each other. There’s a lot of conspiracy theories of Venezuelans saying that their country government was over by the Cuban intelligence agency to work for the Venezuelan government and also they are Nicaraguans that don’t like Hondurans,Costa Ricans,Cubans,Mexicans and Salvadorans.And also there is a lot of Colombians that don’t like Cubans,Nicaraguans And Argentines.
I know, people really can suck. you saw how i jumped back down here even tho the cost of living is unreal. i rather be poor and happy that in racist places.
I appreciate this video, My wife and I are moving to Florida but I cant lie I am scared but she wants to be closer to her island. I just want us to be okay. We are good people and I dont want to loose my life or be uncomfortable for something I cant control my skin
Broward county is great. There is a big black American and black Caribbean population .Many black people here are very educated and have great careers. Great job opportunity freedom and diversity .
Which island you come from? I'm from Puerto Rico I'm going to Florida too and my wife is choosing Florida airforce base just to be near Puerto Rico I just want peace hehe
Spring hill touches Brooksville which is on this list. I live near Riverview and its SUPER diverse and friendly here not sure what you mean by that. Dundee, LOL scary lil towns. Plant City.. you know i stared at a map of Polk county for a minute while making this list LOL.. but the places listed are worst. how about the green swamp LOL
Good job buddy, I've learnt quite a bit with this video! As a retired truck driver I've had my share of such behavior. Alabama from my experience, is among "the most" racist state. Thank God that Jesus Christ has promised his loving children that there will be no such thing in the new world❤
if you live in florida and don't like it, move.
Enjoy the swamp!

I surely know you're not black I'm a black native and I know any real black person who is born in Florida will tell you about the racism in their towns this guy speaks the truth but today's black started fighting back in the sixties until this day but don't go trying to live where it's not peaceful or profitable for us
@paulchandler9060 I don't consider my self black I just said that because I was trying to respond and get back to work but brotha neither one of us is black negro or colored. That is a label that colonizers put on us. We are natives to this land. Jessie Jackson and his people came up with the term "African American". Im not one of those either. We are the real indigenous people here. We're I live in St Johns county all my family has been here for generations and I'm 39 and I will never leave here. It's were I'm raising my family as well but I get what you are saying my brotha

In Florida,
the farther north you go, the more south it is.
I grew up in Florida, and you are 100% correct.
Brunswick Georgia lol worst
Yes!
What about Jacksonville Florida though?
That's because all the white southerners left south Florida because they couldn't stand the Cubans. If they could tolerate them they wouldn't have left.
The FloGrown population is just sick and tired of people coming to Florida and talk shit about Florida. Could you imagine doing that in another place you moved to? It's like move back to where you're from we like it here, and we as Floridians as a community are very welcoming until disrespected and looked down upon.
Exactly it has nothing to do with true racism this guys video is pure clickbait propaganda!
Exactly 👏🏽👏🏽
Oh yeah. Napoleon Broward was real welcoming 😂
@@behonestwitheverythingande6833 Facts💯💯
As a transplant from NY/NJ I can understand what you're saying and would never say that. However I would also remind you that things do change.
As an afro jamaican Hispanic youth living in rural FL for now i have received alot of love from the locals i cant recall any hate besides rude stares.
Your research skills are public school level
Wrong. Public schools do not teach the truth of what really happens in these racist towns. Theore you know.
which places him higher than Floridians then...
I'm from Central Florida lived here for many years. As an African American I see and know that this video is telling the truth. What it looks like there is a direct connection between White racism, White poverty and white Drug overdose. I also know a lot about the workforce here in Florida. African Americans are constantly blocked out of work and job opportunities.
Why don't you just admit it Jose? You create stories about how you are not racist yet you are so bigoted against poor people or blue collar people. You like to show negative aspects of the human condition and you capitalize on it.
Yea right, well said
Turned off this video in less than 3 minutes. Narrator needs to look into his own deep seated racism. Most educated, sensible people know worldwide, people of different cultures gather together, live together. The race hatred was reignited back in 2008. Although I realize lots of people have limited attention spans to see how this happened.
Looks like the citations are from demographic statistics on Wikipedia. I think if you are going to make claims like this you should have some better objective facts instead of opinions.
so you're crying about statistics?
Im black and i dont see most of these cities as more racist then anywhere else. Not saying they dont have racism but a lot of those places are just regular
Monkey Island actually has a little house with Reese monkeys that live on the island. It was not named for the reason you are stating.. Just the facts my friend.
Monkey island got its name from the relocation of monkeys from Homosassa Springs Wildlife Park to the island
Racism seems to be a theme with Jose.
It is in Florida and all of the south!
I will have to disagree with that comment. The south isn’t racist at all. In fact we just see people as people. The problem is race baiters like to say oh the south is racist when in actually y’all are racist.
In fact if you go to world population review and search most racist states, southern states are in the bottom. I get it however it doesn’t fit your narrative nor the maker of this videos narrative.
@@WesleySasser-xj9yj i lived in alabama, and wanted to stay.. so why did i have to leave? get outta here.. you cant pull the wool over my head or quiet my voice i know what happened dont remind me so i dont say more.
Racism is what YOU the viewers CLICK ON. Going to the beach is my theme but i dont see you commenting on those videos.
I own a home in philly & in the Tampa area & travel back in forth threw out the years & let me tell you FL is a cake walk compared to up north, Philly makes any place in FL look like Disney land, Jose i like the channel & all but i think you need to relax with all the racist, drugs & crime rate videos leave it to CNN & Fox news your going a little over board with it now, plus i have never in my life experienced racism in FL but yet i do every single day in Philadelphia, Good luck with the channel buddy
There's no where in FL that has an area like Kensington in Philly. But if you're in Jax and driving out East or down Moncrief there's a high chance you might get shot if you're not from there and you're slacking. Same thing if you're in Miami and rolling around Hialeah or Little Haiti or basically anywhere in North Miami. Or in Pine Hills in Orlando or off Nebraska Ave/Temple Terrace in Tampa. Plus Philly got some nice spots too. I got some brotherly love from strangers in South Philly while I saw open racism at Publix and Waffle Houses in FL 🤣🤣🤣
Did You Honestly Have The Nerve To Tell Him To Leave It Up To CNN And Fox To Tell A Story Of Racism In Florida... Stop It!!!! Jose Is Giving His Non-Biased Opinion About How Things Really Are... No Filters, No Propaganda ... Just Raw Truth... Truth Is Like Light To Vampires... They Hate It... Long Live Jose.
I try telling people this lived in south jersey and worked in Camden and Philly couple times a week I have seen more signs of racism up there then I ever have here in Florida most of what’s said is not true just because a town has little or no black families doesn’t make it racist I delivered in yankee town and everyone seems quite nice this guy is saying things that just are not true it’s a shame the way he constantly puts down west central Florida he needs to stop spreading lies and drum up hate between people he is race baiting in my opinion
Born and raised in Philly for 37 years, never experienced racism one time. Moved to Florida, been here two years, felt every ounce of racism since I’ve been here!
You must live under a rock cause Floridians are prejudice. Not saying it's worst than Philly but it Florida ain't no walk in the park.
My family been living in Brooksville for over 30yrs and we been just fine. Once you get to know the people around you they are always friendly. Just like everywhere you might have your bad apple.
it's not 1925 anymore. of course you don't have to worry about getting lit on your front lawn. but y'all need to stop with the rose colored glasses
A few years ago I was at an older biker party but there was locals and others. Just no black or brown. There was guys recruiting for white supremacy groups and joked about running out blacks from their neighborhoods. It was really gross.. I was working a mobile bar and food set up and was extremely uncomfortable.. I'd been around plenty of old racist biker gangs in central Florida, but brooksville gave me seriously bad vibes. It was the younger, angry, almost illiterate guys that act a different way in their own crowds compared to public..
Also met a black man in croom that hated other black people.. that was new.
This is one of your worst videos yet. Redefining what words actually mean. Making baseless associations.
baseless? look thru these comments.. this video is a masterpiece. How is Brooksville, Homosassa and Dirty river NOT on a list of this sort?
Keep drinking the Koolaid!
You're one of those people. You are living in denial. No amount of facts will ever convince you.
I"m an African American retired female seriously considering relocating to Pensacola. I have located a local realtor and booked a flight in 2 weeks to access the area and look at property. I have literally been doing research for months, your video educated me on the racism that exist there. I am devastated....... white sandy beaches are my happy place, it is such a shame that in 2023 as a person of color I can't just pack my bags and move without considering the impact of my decision based on the color of my skin.
Don’t do it. Unless you can handle it. It won’t be healthy. Stay away from racists. They are full of hate which comes from fear. Look at sports. That’s why they need guns to make it a fair fight. I’m in Cape Canaveral. I’m not even black, just off-white (parents from Egypt). If I don’t leave I will bring back lynchings (white lynchings). But two wrongs don’t make a right. Internalizing the hate served by racists causes cancer.
I hear ya. Florida isn't very nice to the LGBTQ community these days either (proud mama here.) South Florida tends to be less prejudiced. We're in the Keys and it isn't too bad here.
@@travellingcats1047 cry about it.
The whole southern united states has a rough history. That s*** doesn't happen anymore. Come on down.
I have been living in Hernando county last 7 years. It was good until DeFacist was elected by Cuban migrants who mistakenly thought democrats were like Castro. Hope they got educated on how republicans are racist bigots
Jacksonville? The billionaire arab who lives there never mentions that. 😂
Why would a rich Arab say America is racist. When he’s aligned with the racism to begin with. He breaks bread with the evil bastards.
Try again. AmeriKKKa welcomes Arab businessmen because they know a lot of 💵 is behind that, and most Arabs practice racism their damn selves.
Racist.
Well even in Cuba they have a lot of racism there as well. The lighter skinned cubans are racists to the darker skinned ones and they carry that to the USA. Not surprising thats why most who come here that are light skinned vote republican in elections they vote in. So the relationship between blacks and cubans if strenuous at best depending who they are and where they came from. Skin color still bothers folks no matter where they live or move to. Racism is learned and doesnt go away unless they make a choice to stop being racists. That goes for anyone anywhere.
Same for like every Caribbean island, colorism is different from racism trust me.
@@Friocuidando I’ll have to disagree on that. Racism is racism. If you deny and or treat others differently asked on skin color……it’s racism. I know there is a definition that differs between the two but imo it’s the same thing especially here in the USA
Che Guevara was a super racist....
What you’re saying about Cubans isn’t true. I know a lot of Cubans, most of them dark skinned, and I have yet to meet a Cuban that actually immigrated here that doesn’t vote republican. If you ask them why they’ll all give you the same answer: because they saw what communism did to their country and they don’t want to go through it again here. They’re not stupid.
Exactly Cuba’s communist govt claims there is no state sponsored racism but if you look at the top ruling branch you see no blacks there. Funny how no one discusses this point .
Born and raised in Jacksonville FL.yeah the drugs and crime here is bad but it's not a racist city
This place was heaven till some one told people this was the land of milk and honey till everyone moved here. I live in a small town that didn't know a drug harder than pot. Then the villages came and their family now we have people breaking into your house while your home, OD on the side walk. Kids can no longer go outside to play. What took 5 minutes to drive to now talks an hour. Insurance prices went way up thanks to all the bad drivers that moved here, can'tget into a spring anymore unless you show up at 5am. Worse part is we now have human trafficking.
Baby Girl, stop blaming people who moved to Florida. Blame your state for ALLOWING chaos to happen. Your state doesn’t give a damn about you, that’s the problem. Your state government are the biggest criminals, not somebody from Ohio. Florida isn’t and never was yours to begin with. Imagine how the Natives felt in Florida when Europeans came in murdering, robbing, and rayping. Destroying their “heaven.” Florida will only get worse, so either keep crying, deal with it, or move
they scarred the land up there for sure. but regardless you cant hate people. and the OD rates for Floridians isnt better than for those moving here if you didnt know.
Didn't use to be. That's is so sad to see.
Growing up in South Florida, we would refer to North Florida(specifically the Panhandle), as Southern Alabama. 😀😀
Lower Alabama!
Just curious….. how is Jacksonville?
@ivan72087 horrible. lol. but every place is what you make of it. my uncle lives in orange park outside Jacksonville and the area has more of a southern feel than central and southern florida
Guessing Southern hospitality doesn't apply to everyone, especially the color people
Theres nice neighborhoods sprinkled throughout but its a mess of crime, some areas are more isolated and safe but mostly closer to the beaches is safer. Jacksonville aint bad if you know where you are, and you can live close to beaches for cheaper than any other city. That being siad, the school is system is bad, and the job pay are lacking, wouldnt raise a family there, but its good if you want to grow a career@@jameskarins1717
Thanks for the video. Most of those towns look depressing and run down. Seems like they would try to clean up those areas.
they are the ones who ran the town down.. thats how they like it
Yeah, run down
I guarantee you couldn't afford to move to one of those towns
They don't look like that because they're poor, it's just a more laid-back lifestyle, but these people are far from destitution, I seen it on RUclips it must be true.. lol
Thanks for your assessment.
@@scottliegel855 I live in Clearwater. There are a few areas that look like that here also, but for the most part people try to keep the areas around their homes and businesses nice and clean. There is a difference between being laid back and lazy..ijs
But sir you too have been very discriminatory against us folks over age 60. You said old people were moving in and messing up communities.
the best HELP for them is NOT ending up here.. to be exploited by this state.
Black people saying there’s no racism in Florida really know their place.
We less than 60 yr old Native Floridians have been raised up and gone to school with Black, Cuban, Italian and Puerto Rican people all our lives played lil league the whole 9,,,, I'm 58 and it was like this all my life
Please keep these videos up! It'll help Californians move else where and improve traffic jams down here.
you have a skewed view
Drug use isn’t racist.
All people have a choice to drugs or not regardless of race.
A town that’s already full of settled people of any race will be most likely filled with people of the same color regardless of race because people generally live with the same type people and all you have to do is look at all animals on earth to see this.
Race is a factor as people generally hang out with the same race regardless of skin color.
A rebel flag doesn’t make you racist,, it indicates you May be racist but you could be a strong believer in Freedom and want to REBEL against authority.
I own rebel flags and don’t think the color of skin means anything. It’s the color of your heart that matters.
If I had to pick a most racist race it would be black BUT that doesn’t mean the majority of black people are racist.
It just means the most racist people I’ve met traveling Florida into all types of communities as a 30yr paramedic and firefighter and nature explorer are the black low income people who blame white people for all their failures but if you pay attention, you’ll find that almost everyone who is poor and life sucks blame somebody else for their problems.
I’ve lived in Jacksonville and the Tampa Bay area and I had family in the 1860s north west of Gainesville. My families been in Florida since 1859 and according to census data from 1860 we are to 300 acre farms and 12 slaves. Unfortunately, a lot of family history was lost and all those people are dead so I can’t tell you what the specifics were except that both my grandfather and his brother walked away from the farm many many years ago.
Well, owning other people is just a lie as you can’t really own a person that is not how it was seen to a lot of people worldwide prior to the 1900s and slavery is still see it is OK by too many people.
However, back in the 1800s it was a part of life. If you couldn’t raise your crops, then people died without food, and labor, was needed to do that.
This included many black plantation owners who owned their own black slaves.
You should do some research on Florida under Spanish control.
They used to cut 1 foot off Indians, so they wouldn’t run away.
Florida has a horrible history just like the rest of the country and just like the rest of the world when it comes to how some people were treated whether they were witches or slaves and slaves came in many colors not just black.
Fortunately, most humans have evolved, but some still live in the past and blame others for their problems.
It’s pretty simple to pick the right direction.
If you work for it and earn your life be proud.
If you did not earn it, there is no reason to be proud of it, and none of us earned the color of our skin.
All of our ancestors, including the Native American Indians, came from somewhere else at some point in time when there were no laws telling us we could or couldn’t be here but there are laws now, so those laws need to be followed, although they could definitely be changed to make more sense and be more human.
After all that, the bottom line is FLORIDA is a pretty good place although I rarely go into Miami because honestly there’s just too much crime and that’s actually true of every large city in America where people are squashed together , but in the country side outside the city limits most people in Florida are nice.
TOO MUCH CRIME IN MIAMI????????????????? its the safest city in ALL categories. your just racist because its latino city
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS I’m Cuban and was born and raised in Miami. I lived in Kendall, sweetwater, the roads, Shenandoah, and coral gables. I’m 46 now. Miami is NOT safe. Keep believing those statistics you read. Come live here for more than a year and tell me it’s the safest city. Lol.
Bro, you think a confederate flag represents freedom and wanting to rebel against authority? Is that the kind of education you get in Florida? Wow…..
@@havoc1zero Yup exactly. I used to live in the Kendall area too and while there are nice areas of Miami you never really are away from the crime element in all of Dade county. You are constantly reminded to lock your doors at night and never go out alone at night to any gas station or store. Oh it gets even worse as you get more into the city of Miami where they have drive by shootings almost daily. I actually moved out of Miami 13 years ago to another so-called "dangerous" town and I can tell everyone it still pales in comparison to Miami's crime stats.
I’ve heard that Miami is a terrible cityz

Back in the day, the 60"s I believe there was a place downtown that was the only place where blacks and whites could gather together upstairs to play and listen to Jazz music.

Great explanation of the different types of racism, a very clear and concise explanation, but of course most will hear what you are saying without listening and understanding it. Keep up the good work. Much needed if we truly want to get past all of this ignorance.
Amigo, I'm impressed you didn't bring up Cape Coral as a resident of Cape Coral. There's a lot of hate towards the Mexicans that I witnessed. I can 100% vouch. Fort Myers Beach is truly like that

Cape Coral Florida is the most racist city in United States of America Google it
I lived in Cape Coral, and no one said anything racist to me. Richmond Virginia was much more racist in my opinion.

Native Americans ARE THE ONLY ONES THAT CAN ACTUALLY CLAIM TO BE NATIVES OF THIS CONTINENT. But of course they all forget that.
No, Sorry… THAT’S A LIE. Africans were dwelling on EVERY continent besides Antarctica. When you read the descriptions of the people first encountered by Europeans in the Americas, they’re described as Ethiopian-like, Negroes. Not saying the Asiatic-Indians, known as Natives, didn’t exist and weren’t prominent. Because they definitely were. But please learn true history and realize the Black Man from Africa was the Original Man on Earth. Came from the dirt, hence his skin tone. He was a master of the seas, and was traveling the world. There’s a natural current off the west coast of Africa that takes you to America, same one hurricanes travel. Africans knew this for centuries before Columbus.
Definitely the truth and I just learned this not too long ago. It's a shame schools will never teach the real history of our ancestors.
I would say its very hard to know who was here first. Always finding new stuff. They found a new Indian village in NW Arkansas I know up to 10k years old I think 7 to 10 said. Always new buried stuff find
@@user-vr3mr5eu7y It ain’t hard to get educated, use common sense, and learn from other people besides the one’s that control the schooling in America. It’s not hard at all. That “10,000.. 50,000 years ago” age tracing is VERY flawed. Those scientist and archaeologists are using tests that were specifically designed by them, to age artifacts and the earth by their own bias measures. Knowing how old the sediment is impossible, truly impossible. These are the same people that will tell you Earth is Millions of years old. We will never know the entire truth, but we damn sure can come close. We are all born with the knowledge of everything, the truth is in our DNA 🧬… Lol, that might go over y’all head tho.
The real natives was black from what most have learned black people was in America before slavery .....
Should have been labeled "The Florida MAGA retirement guide"

Exactly
Actually a lot of those places are blue.😂😂

Putting Jax on here is a joke.
Didn't know that about Fort Myers beach and i grew up in Milton which was kinda a mix of racism. As a father im trying to humble myself and not be racist to show my children that everyone is equal, my job is primarily Hispanic descent and have no problem with anyone unless provoked, i try to get along with anyone and everyone, i really enjoy your videos and it is definitely a different perspective, thank you.
No body owns anything but God they don't even own themselves
Thank you for doing these videos. Really helps minorities like myself to know this information as I navigate this state often.
Being from Brevard county fl I will tell you that it doesn't matter what color you are, if you are in the hood the cops are going to harass you. Most of tue violent crimes that take place in the county happen in those areas. It's where you're at .. not who you are. Also I find it weird that you made no mention of actual sundown towns that are legitimate concerns for black ppl. Such as Cedar Key, Fl. Which is marketed by tourism as a cute little fishing town with shoppes and restaurants over the water. Unfortunately they don't tell you that if you are of color you need to be outta town by sundown. You should do better research before making a list like this, because somebody might think if they avoided the place on your list they are safe, which absolutely not true.... don't quit your day job.
Amen! This guy is a joke.
I said the same thing...
I guess I've just been lucky. I lived in Jacksonville on and off probably a total of 15 years. I've lived a few years in Tampa, Fort Myers also. I've lived in Lake City, FL for some years as well. The main place I saw racism was when I lived in north GA where whites and blacks rarely ever mingled outside of businesses. I know there is plenty of racism though because I hear about it from other people and it is unfortunate. Everyone has the right to be racist though, everyone has the right to dislike people based on race as that is pretty much a human right but that doesn't make it the right way to live one's life though. Racism really is a form of hatred and life is too short to waste it on hating people.
What's living in Jacksonville like? Especially for a black person.
@@kevineubanks859It really is what you make of it. I'm not black so I can't truly speak on how it is for a black person living in Jacksonville but all of the black people I knew just worked and lived life like everyone else.
@southbeatz8441 thank you for that honest reply. Blessings upon you.
Don’t listen to some youtuber that just drove through a town a d decided he wanted to get clicks
Yes I've never had a problem neither
Pensacola racist? Abysmal? Lol. Ok bro, 👍🏼 Keep telling everyone that.
Overdose rate is 70/100k how much worst could that situation get there?
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS a lot of places have drug problems right now. That’s not the only factor to take into consideration when evaluating a city. Anyhow, what does the overdose rate have to do with Pensacola being racist? Drug addiction isn’t a race issue lmao.
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS What does drug overdose rate have to do with racism? That's what has a lot of us scratching our heads. Are meth and opioid users racist?
Look, Pensacola is very racist. Pensacola has a black Beach for Christ sake. The police are terrible and the racial profiling is next level.
It is
I was born in Florida and still live here .I live in St Petersburg and I’ve never seen any issues at all. We all get along and try to be there for each other no matter what color you are or where you’re from.
What great work you are doing! Thanks.
Great video thank you for showing the real truth about Florida.
That Panhandle is crazy like it’s the 1800’s for real
I remember the movie Rosewood from the late 1990s. It's a successful black town in 1920s Florida. A woman cheating on her husband, with another white man claimed an N-word raped her to cover it up. The enraged townsfolk go on a rampage and destroy the town. They also used to accuse random blacks minding their own business of owing money, and force them to work.
yes! towns gone now. north of where we live now.
Ocoee, FL - 1920 massacre.
The degenerates murdered Black folks because they voted … that’s REAL RACISM. Those voters were WWI Veterans, who fought for America. Growing up, we thought Mississippi was in a league of their own when it came to devil worshipping. But Florida’s evil ass history is a close 2nd, might even be tied.
BS
I was told by a person from up north that this did not happen. I told them their house was built where rosewood was. I lived out there too. Sometimes we would see blck people run through the yard and no one was there. Now the villagers are seeing them too.
I grew up here this really was Paradise. Not any more.
@@elenatlntA lot of whites try to deny history because they do not want their ancestors to be thought of as trash human beings. They were though.
Please send me a link to your most racist towns in Alabama because I'm sure you've made the video already. 😆
yeah it includes like every town LOL - cant remember if i made that..
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS every town 🤣
I have watched your videos and I appreciate how much you have improved in explaining your content and I didn't know about some of the problems that exist in Florida. You did a good job on this video thank you.
This video is scaring people from the north, they think someone will burn a cross on their lawn 😅
My guess is these communities are probably older communities. You should also look into the average age of these communities to see if there is a pattern.
exactly
Pointing out the problem areas of Florida is useful. In spite of the negative places brought up in this video they are mostly small population areas other than Duval County.
The vast large population centers of Florida, (Miami, Tampa, St. Pete, Orlando, Ft. Lauderdale, Tallahassee, Key West) are filled with people who just what to get along, so they can live in peace and afford life.
On the death rate on drug overdose; I have a question: Since you have to use the drug to die from overuse, wouldn't the death rate just show users, not sellers? Many deaths are new users and the police have no way to guess new buyers or 'gifted' drug use. Sellers are easier to pick out of the crowd, perhaps.
I think many people who live in Florida, came here because it is accepting, And Florida keeps accepting.
Florida really likes people from all area of the world and it is fun to inteact with all the great cultures that have moved here.
Its a mess right now
So keep me and my family AWAY from these places. Got it
Broward county and parts of Tampa much nicer
No come here to Florida this 🤡dose not know wtf he is talking about raised in all these places
Broward and Dade is definitely safe ..sucks that black people still can’t rest ..gotta look over their shoulder for racists ..it’s so insane.

nice little lie.
First of all, Homossassa, is in an area that is deemed a water & wildlife conservation preserve. There are people from all over the U.S. who have relocated there, and respect the State’s Laws and Regulations that are beneficial to the survival of the aquatic and land botanical plants, and wildlife species indigenous to that area of Florida. Racist toward anyone, any color who want to invade it with their life style of drug addictions, criminal activity, disrespect of Law and turn it into trashy, unsanitary, homeless camping garbage dump. If that is based on racism, they would not deny the favored race from doing it, now would they. If the majority of crimes committed by the people seen on security camera footage at the time, and/or arrested are seen to be one certain racial skin color, it is definitely accurate to associate that race to being most likely to post a threat to community’s safety of the citizens of all racial ethnicity, who are trying to keep a safe and law abiding place to live. So, ya, call out the problem and guilty race. That’s telling the truth.
WHO KNEW MONKEYS were indigenous to Florida?????????????????????????????????
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS Yeah monkeys live in Florida too. You know in Southwest Miami they have a place called the Monkey Jungle right? Is that racist too?
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS wow
All Races Commits Crimes... Blacks Are Just Criminalized More Than Other Groups ... The Media Propaganda Machine Are Racist And You Justify Being Hostile To Blacks Or Other People Based Off Racist Media Propagandists 💯
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS=joke
Thank you so much for this. Most of these cities I've never heard of but being that I want to visit a few major cities in Florida, I want to make sure I don't even drive thru any of these places. Thanks!
I will always say, Get rid of drugs and a lot of these problems will go away. I honestly believe some in our government have allowed drugs to be brought in so Black folks would self-destruct. In that's not racism I don't know what is ! Some northerners, not all need to change their attitude when moving down here and get over their bias. I've encountered some that were as racist as some southerners, so sad. I' m thankful growing up in Bunnell that we got along.
Hispanics give drugs to blacks to help them sell and get ahead.
Proof or it didn't happened.
I mean, Lee County was named after Robert E. Lee.
you alright know
Facts
And most of the natives in Lee county go Herp derp derp derp deeerrrpp.....
Pensacola is my hometown and it is a very racist place.
So glad you did a show on this Racism! In Florida
Out of Town plates you getting pulled over man no matter
If you hate it so much, leave. I'm Hispanic, and not one time in my life have I cried "racism" for wherever I find myself or my success or failure. We are selling our house in Nebraska and moving to Ocala. Not worried a bit. I don't have a victim mentality. If anyone is "consumed with hate" it's you.
Good luck getting a job 👌 try speaking in Spanish in public too be yourself up there in Ocala
Come on down your welcome with open arms 😊
That's so funny on living group in Titusville and I just don't see it that way, I'll go back and look at your other video though just to be fair
That’s why prices are so high so they can keep blacks out of Florida
Great video 💯🙏🏾
I respect what you’re trying to do in these videos, but I feel like I have to correct you on something here: if someone who loves America, and by extension Florida, is your measuring stick on who is a racist, then you’ve set the bar far below underground. It’s perfectly fine and acceptable to say that you don’t like people from certain states in general. It could be for cultural reasons, regional differences or political reasons (which is probably the most likely reason). As a native New Yorker myself who was born and raised there, I would argue that rich sheltered trust fund kids who moved there from the west coast throughout the 2000s effed up my home state pretty bad. That’s not racism. If you’re assuming that only one race of people moved to Florida, you would still be wrong. It cheapens the word worse than it already is when you apply it to a circumstance like this. And we also need to stop assuming someone’s intentions when they use words like “ours” or “they”. You can’t just assume you know what they mean by “they” our “ours”. Go ahead and allow them to clarify and let them say the race if that’s what is meant. Let them confirm their racism. A true racist will straight up say it to your face without hesitation or respect to how you’ll feel. They usually don’t dance around what they mean. Assuming stranger’s intent is racism is what causes so much division and ignorance in our country.
I grew up in Deltona , Fl and I’ve experienced racism as well as my brother and my mother . I was determined to move and was able to do that . Got my degree and moved out.
You forgot about Palm Bay, Florida.
I lived in Palm Harbor, FL when the KKK had its “headquarters” on the intersection of Nebraska and US19 (where Publix is now). It’s still the same.
Theres klan all over. Most are drunk wife beaters and their wife’s eventuality is leaving them for a black guy to retaliate
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS😆😆😆👍🏾
Are you saying that wives go against their supermacist husbands to stand against it?
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS Only the ones in your head since the klan has little power these days and are only informants or feds.
what you haven't mentioned is tenants and owners of property!
owners have an investment and tenants don't ! thats one reason why people feel they own the place, they do!!
tenants come and go, if they dont like it, move on!
If you pay taxes you don’t own shit. The government can take it away when they please.
Nice way to deflect racism tho. Your comments are ignorant and void of truth. Especially the one about thriving Black neighborhoods in Florida. That’s the whole point of this video, there are no thriving places for the Black community …smh, that’s the point of the damn video. And that’s the result of systematic racism.
But low I.Q. can’t comprehend that
you have NO IDEA what your talking about.
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS what? Explain. You can’t tell him he doesn’t know what he’s talking about and not tell him why? He’s right, explain why he’s not.
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGSSure As Hell Don't Jose... Keep Doing Your Thing Bro And Down To The Haters... And Gas-Lighters.
Steinhatchee FL is definitely racist. Used to deliver beer there and between there and Keaton Beach I could literally go all day and not see one other black person. They would tell me to leave the beer by the door. I couldn't even go in the cooler. When walked in it used to feel like the music stopped and everybody looked at me like "what in tarnation. Y'all letting walk around free now"
I grew up in Titusville in the 60's/early 70's and was in school when integration happened. It was a nightmare...the blacks were very militant and disruptive. We had a race riot at Astronaut HS and the cops had to be called and showed up with guns out to end it...would have been '74. We used to drive up to Mims (just north of Titusville) and watch the KKK burn a cross right off of US1 at the then closed old Stuckey's restaurant location.
Beautiful memories of life in the south 🥰
United we stand,divided we fall....
Man this is hilarious 😂
Jose,this is just your opinion!!some stuff is true,but other than that,you are just quoting the police reports for content!!
NOOOOO, thats EXTRA. I added the police reports AFTER the video was made. you can tell the video was split many times. i went back and made the video shorter, thats when the police reports came in. I recorded the audio first. that's not how i made this video.
He is telling the truth!
@@marknewton6984 lmao, uhh, I’ll guess nope. Not a chance.
I seen more racism in FL than any other state I lived in
@southern life , at least in alabama , and i will take what you said about the place is true . you could earn a living , if you were willing to work . even the people with money in florida don't want to pay you , and will try and scam poor people and hard working people . and i agree , with the latins tat were rebuilding fort myers beach , fix your own damn house .
i rather be broke here than rich in Alabama. its a shame our state helps companies exploit the poor.. not the poor get ahead. Alabama do take care to provide jobs.. but its only for THEM.. were screwed HERE or THERE as latinos.
I thought you hated Florida. Did a video regarding moving to Georgia where the people were friendly. You seem to have difficulty keeping focus and remembering past statements.
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS @southern life , if a honest fair minded person moves to florida , you will be broke . as for lehigh acres , who would not like living in a place , where a ''city '' of over a hundred and fifty thousand people has no real stores . i was in southwest florida , after a hurricane , and you had people waiting in line for gas ,and you had your sw florida elites filling up their boats . and as far as racism goes ,sw florida , as per your list is tops. the only reason latin people move to sw florida , is a lot of middle class people cant afford a decent home in miami . and they will see miami-dade and family , once in a while .
Merritt island not on the list tho
For real bro? first time hearing that. I can see it now that you mention it tho

Give love? Florida is a mess in many ways.
I stumbled upon this hoping that this was like a factual video but no it's just you stating your opinion so i guess you could have your own news network like fox cnn nbc abc msnbc and the rest of the other networks because you're just reporting your own opinions
Thanks a lot for your video ........ Pleaz Can make a video like this for Alaska, Vermont and Wyoming ?????
three states i never even visited so how could i know? what makes Florida video good is i KNOW the places so well
I refuse to adjust my verbage to other people's likes.

This video will do good in the long run. people love this type of topic somehow.
Thanks for the video , Miami dade is the best in Florida , I love my home
Miami is not any better. You talk about regionalism but it seems like you think that Miami is way better than any other place in Florida when that's simply not the case. I am also from Miami, Hispanic (family from Peru), and let me tell you I've experienced quite a lot of racism from Cubans and other Latinos there. I found that a lot of Cubans are hostile towards Blacks and Latinos with more indigenous origins (Peruvians, Mexicans, Salvadorans, Nicaraguans, Bolivians, etc). While it's true the areas in this video are not the friendliest or most open-minded, neither is Miami. The sad thing is that racism can come from members of any race. I spent some years living in NYC and it's also very racist up there. I had problems with Blacks and Dominicans up there who would discriminate against me. So it's not just White folks. BTW I am not saying all Cubans are like this but I am shocked at the amount of them who are. My sister's fiancee is Cuban and is one of the nicest guys around. Lots of Cubans are good people. However don't act like Cubans and Miami are saints. Also racism is a big problem in Cuba itself. Read the autobiography of Celia Cruz and see when she had to go through when she was growing up in Havana.
no one cares dude.
@@headshotmaster138 Says the idiot who took the time to read the comment and then write one. 🤣
This statement is 100% spot on.
In Miami Dade, there’s a lot of racism between Hispanics groups , especially with the Cubans and the Venezuelans that really don’t like each other. There’s a lot of conspiracy theories of Venezuelans saying that their country government was over by the Cuban intelligence agency to work for the Venezuelan government and also they are Nicaraguans that don’t like Hondurans,Costa Ricans,Cubans,Mexicans and Salvadorans.And also there is a lot of Colombians that don’t like Cubans,Nicaraguans And Argentines.
I live up here its terrible in North Florida
Ur soooo wrong,Jax is not North Florida..
Jacksonville is the first part of North Florida 😂😂😂
