This was taken in 2022, the year that I was kicked out of Oxfort St shelter for recording a staff member's abusive behaviour. Anyways, long story short, I was living under a shopping cart minding my own, when I met somebody who reminded me that Portland is full of unexpected surprises. This city, and all its trenches, birthed the best parts of me. I'm homesick, but grateful that there are so many videos, like this.
Must have taken the Real Estate types much time to find areas of downtown that didn't show the tents, needles and human feces broken and covered store window that cover much of the city. No tourists or locals downtown because no police to protect the public because cop unit was defunded. Not for tourists watching zombies on the sidewalk. Will vacation in safe citie but locals like the way it is now because most are dealing with drug issues.
@@PeacefulDrives21 it depends where you are.... this person mightve been thinking portland OREGON not maine. but seriously the homeless problem in portland maine has gotten way worse over the past 3 years. governor mills doesnt do anything about it either

I didn't know Portland Maine had so many issues. I loved it there and didn't notice much in the respect of homeless or shady neighborhoods.
