This Is How Terrible Atlantic City, New Jersey Is Now

- Oh my gosh this place is one of the worst places on the east coast.
Is this place being destroyed right before our eyes?
Atlantic City. Back in the roaring 20s, this place was called the World’s Playground. The beach, the boardwalk and gambling. There really was nothing like it. However, this city has fallen on hard times over the last couple decades. It has a really bad reputation for crime and blight, and is suffering from a huge loss in tourism. It’s a living breathing decay in progress, happening right now in front of us.
So of course I had to see it. So I went there.
Now we’re going to spend some time looking at the good and the bad parts of Atlantic City. Well, there really isn’t A LOT of good here - once you’re a block from the casinos, it’s pretty rundown. Even the streets NEAR the casinos are kinda shady. Right now, we’re on Pacific Avenue. This is the main drag where most of Atlantic City’s casinos are located. It’s pretty sketch here - there are strip clubs, ghetto bars, liquor stores, and people standing around that look like they’re doing something illegal. You’ll see homeless people, addicts, drunks, rowdy teens, and the mentally ill.
The liquor stores along Pacific Avenue get robbed. Tourists get robbed here. Actually, most of the assaults that take place in Atlantic City happen right here, within viewing distance of these rundown casinos.
Let’s go one street over. Now we’re on Atlantic Avenue - one block further from the boardwalk. This street is bad news, pal. It, too is super sketchy at all hours, but at night - it’s a horror show. It’s dark and seedy and people are doing terrible things in the shadows.
There’s no wonder why Atlantic City got a bad reputation and why hotel bookings are down. This place used to be amazing. For a long time, it was the only place to offer legal gambling outside of Nevada. It’s a short train ride from New York City, and people all over the northeast used to flock here every year.
Now, there’s casinos in Pennsylvania and Connecticut, or people can just fly down to Florida, Myrtle Beach or Virginia Beach.
Plus Hurricane Sandy really did a number on this place.
They were kinda optimistic here for a while. There were some new fancy casino openings, and crime was going down a bit.
This is a good time to transition to the Board Walk. Get it? The Atlantic City boardwalk isn’t that bad during the day. There’s a lot of stuff to get you entertained for an afternoon.
It’s sad to see the world’s first ever boardwalk in such decline. But at least the ocean views are pretty. So that’s cool.
Ok so now we’re going to the bad side of town where all the dangerous neighborhoods are. Let me just say, that practically this entire city is bad. There are some okay streets, but I haven’t really been to a place before where there wasn’t at least one large nice part of town. Everything in Atlantic City - practically every block - is below average run down. Not ghetto ghetto. But ghetto.
There’s a lot of section 8 housing here, and with that comes a lot of drug and gang activity. Lots of hoodlums and pimps. A lot of robberies, assaults and car jackings. Crime here is 12 times higher than the national average per capita.
It’s bad here at night. It’s very rundown and very sad.
A lot of people in these neighborhoods rely on the casinos for their employment. Dealers can make a lot of dough - maybe 25 an hour, plus a hundred bucks a day in tips. Though, most workers at the casinos make minimum wage. At least it’s cheap here - the average home price is $165,000. You can see why.
But the lifeline that the casinos provide residents here has been severed. Due to Covid and bad casino management, Atlantic City has seen some hard times, people. Residents here have been struggling for a long time now, but after Covid, 40% of the population here lives in poverty.
The president of the Atlantic City housing authority said - The landscape in Atlantic City is pretty dire right now.
People are broke and hungry and desperate here.
AC is a dumping ground for ex felons, needle exchanges, welfare recipients and sex offenders. Just look at the list of all the sex offenders who live here. What the what the

Hard rock casino is the best place to go. If you enjoy losing money🫠
Hi! Are you still doing consultations? Sent you an email awhile back
In addition, I think he said he didn't see nicer established neighborhoods. He didn't look for them.
His video had to support his pov. Most of the cities he has disparaged omit the reason why beyond residents being the fault.
Whoever designed that city was clearly on drugs! Christ! It's like, every turn off a block is a different zipcode/timezone-almost like it's mean to confuse you! So even when you leave the casino, turns out you are still in the casino. It's a place you go to for alcohol and maybe hookers!
@@elainejones2680 💯 Read my comments. I added some words to the vocabulary of @NickJohnson: Venice Park & Bungalow Park. Just like you commented, he saw what he came to see, blight, crime, low level activity. His credibility was lowered just by the fact that he went to a famous beach resort in February!!! 🏖️ smh
“These days?” AC has always looked like this, even when the casinos were booming in the 80s and 90s!
Slots and slums was the tag line back then.
Yup, was always a dump. Like the ATM machine at 1am when people's SSI money is available on their cards, draws stick up lids outside in the parking lot. Casinos always drew stick up lids just a block away from any casino.
It was a major dump when I first visited in the 1960s. After the casinos were built there was only a slight improvement down by the boardwalk. Since the gambling declined even the boardwalk area has gone bad.
Atlantic city looked like newark the last time I saw it two Octobers ago Ocean City NJ looked great though I loved ocean city I was four blocks away from the boardwalk the casino/boardwalk area didn't look that bad though I went to the margate city beach and liked it
Lol True but they still come
I just spent a couple of days in AC, which is probably why this video popped up for me. The family and I had a great time and we never felt unsafe. Nearly every hotel room was sold out.
The arcade and indoor go cart track at the Showboat were great fun for the kids. The beach was very clean (and free!)
Of course there are run down areas. Walking and driving around AC you can see the bones of a formerly great resort city. Newcomers like Kelsey's restaurant on Pacific are trying to bring back that glory. Unlike the tone of this video, I am rooting for them to succeed.
I agree. This video sucks. These people are so negative and seem to be afraid of their own shadows.
I live right across the bridge and work in the city- it’s disgusting. I have been robbed myself. I went to see a patient in their boarding home and got stuck in there because their was a swat situation out front while I was inside.
A formerly great resort city? AC has always been a shithole.
Facts aren't always pretty unfortunately. Its sad there
YOU KNOW WHITE PEOPLE HAVE ALWAYS TRIED TO STEREOTYPE ANYTHING BLACK AS BAD. I work at a popular grocery store in a white area, and guess what? every WHITE person who comes through my line is on FOOD STAMPS. BUT THEY WANT SHOW THIS IN THE NEWS, OR REPORT ON IT!!!!!
Atlantic City has always looked like that. It was never amazing in the 70’s and 80’s. The whole reason casinos were allowed to open there was so that the tax revenues, etc. would go towards city and community improvements. Those never happened.
Nope, as usual pockets got lined and city folks were kept down. Sickening
True. As long as I’ve been alive it never looked any better than that.
They (the state government) were never going to improve Atlantic City
The place stayed the same but the crowd got rough
uhm...? All I'm seeing is this guy showing photos of a normal-looking city center and then talking it up like it's a noir dystopia
I was in AC in 1965 as a kid. This was years before the gambling was legalized (mid 70s). What I remember was that once you left the boardwalk, the city area was very run down. My father had a hard time finding a restaurant because the area was very sketchy.
I think it's improved a lot from the early 80's. I grew up there 1968 (4 years old) to 1982, HS grad. Then worked in the casino I was in slot machine repair / maintenance. By 97 I was burned out and joined the military. I was newly married too and once we left there I never really went back except to visit family.
I'm still on the east coast, I've been in Virginia it's hectic here but there was more employment opportunities. I'm mostly retired now. I don't regret my choice except my parents passed away I didn't realize they were elderly it all just kind of happened. When you raise kids time really flies.
Imagine having a monopoly on east coast gambling FOR A GENERATION and wasting it. The massive corruption of the monopoly of the parry in power.
Born and Raised in NJ, worked at Harrah's and never felt unsafe. We have amazing historic Restaurants that are the best.
White House Sub Shop where Frank and many more legends enjoyed.
I am kind of mad at the picture you painted of Atlantic City, calling it Ghetto. I worked with many hard working families, that both the Husband and Wife worked at the same Casino and lost their job like I did when the Pennsylvania Casinos opened.
The people I worked with are born and raised Atlantic City, and are as saddened what is happening now. These families are proud of where they came from, but wishes it would change also.
What I would like to see in Atlantic City is see the A/C strip go away, and once again have the area by the Ocean become a Family destination once again.
Keep the Marina for the Casinos.
It was an amazing place growing up going to A/C.
I was SO happy when I saw the White House sign still up!
I'm sorry if I made you sad 😢
Don't get mad at the numbers. Pride is no substitute for quality of life.
I grew up there and we moved to Brigantine around 1980. By around the mid 80's I worked at Playboy's Casino in slots. Then Sands in hard count and slots repair again. Then Tropicana casino back in slots repair. I began hating the job by the 90's and the casino downsized so I lost my job. I enlisted in the Army in 1998 in my 30's. I missed quite a few people including my parents but I had a family (wife and kids) myself and was more able to take care of them. We ended up in the state of Virginia and it's pretty good. I still miss my cousins in the AC area and a few other people there. So I related to your comment - really good comment Sir.
The White House is the best. We still go there all the time. Italian sausage with onions and peppers.
I lived there from 2008 til 2014 worked security at the showboat. Lived on pacific ave in one of the condos. Took the jitney bus to and from work at late hours. Never got robbed or anything. Just have to be aware of your surroundings and watch out for yourself
Is it really dangerous?
@@kaysquadvideos7668 yes
@@kaysquadvideos7668 Yes it is very dangerous, if you are a female do not walk outside a casino or on the boardwalk by yourself, especially at night. Clueless tourists visit "The Walk" all the time which is literally a few blocks from the projects home to all manner of crime. I would never shop there and run red lights if anyone approaches my car.
@@kaysquadvideos7668No. They’re exaggerating. It wouldn’t even make the top most dangerous cities in NJ. You can walk the boardwalk by yourself and you’ll be totally fine. If you’re female, don’t walk it at night by yourself. Don’t be crazy. Off the boardwalk, it depends on what part of town. The Walk isn’t a bad area… at all. You might see a crackhead on the way but that’s mostly any city.
Showboat was the best casino in Atlantic City. I spent many weekends there and really miss the place. I still have Showboat hoodies and people stop me and talk about their good times at Showboat. I really miss the place. Best time in our lives ( wife and me).
I have completed 1200 DoorDash deliveries and close to 800 of those deliveries have been in Atlantic City. I've delivered all over the city from as early as 7 AM all the way to 4 AM. I don't remember ever feeling afraid. The only time I did was in Pleasantville. I've gone through a few working class neighborhoods and what I saw was cliche busting. Kids playing. A bunch of adult men walking around talking about and working on cars. I've seen really crappy areas of AC. I've also seen the good parts. I understand the negatives but you weren't even handed in your treatment of this city.
Thank you. Atlantic city is not what he is making it out to be in this video. I am an attractive white woman and I have never felt uneasy or afraid anywhere or anytime during the time I lived and worked there and we still have a summer home there today. Super sociopathic commentary man.
@@Phillyhomicide my point was the stereotypical attractive white female scared to go out alone in the city. I have never had any issues there. Myself and all my girlfriends would park on Atlantic Ave and walk to the clubs just to avoid paying for parking. Ac isn't scary.
@@Phillyhomicide she's not
Pleasantville indeed
He never is even handed
"Is this place being destroyed before our very eyes?"
Is it in the United States of America? Then yes.
Bro ppl been saying this forever. Its literally a city thats always been bad. Nothing new
@@ufo715 rural areas and Peninsula resorts are okay, but American cities are just awful, it’s sad seeing this happen
Sometimes it goes bad in a matter of weeks!
@@ufo715 exactly lol people act like almost any other country is a better place to live
….is it run by democrats is a more suiting question/answer…..derp
The whole country is like this, you have the very rich and rich, and then the rest of the United States, drugs, homeless, jobless, divorce, single parents, lack of affordable housing, and everything is falling apart, from the streets, schools, Sin has destroyed this country and the world.
It's not as easy as you say"just walk over and get a job." The sad fact is that most down and out people can't get any of these jobs. Most states require a clean record to work in a casino. Very minor offenses can exclude people from these jobs. Also there are requirements to even apply for many jobs such as licenses. It's hard to respond to an employer when you have nowhere to live and many times scetchy phone service. It's really hard to go to an interview in stinking dirty clothes. Once someone sinks so low in life it's nearly impossible to pull yourself out.
@@markjackson9441 that's how your overlords exploited you and kept you poor.
Not really, there's plenty of middle class and poor towns that aren't in ruins
I work here all the time for my job, it’s the hood on the water. Very sad, has so much potential
As a kid in the mid-60’s, the family used to go down to AC for a week every summer. But that was BTC … (Before The Casinos). After dark, the boardwalk was always crowded with tourists. The amusement rides, tourist shops and games used to keep everybody entertained. The casinos originally chased all the families away. Sad.
Stealing "BTC" from you!🤣
Or just "BC"
wrong. AC was dead by the early 70's. that's why they passed casino gambling.they though it would bring the city back. unfortunately , it didn't help. once the rot and cancer gets into a city, there is no turning it back to a good place.
@@fransmith8992 It helped the unemployment problem all through the 80's though. However, some of the jobs sucked and many of us got "casino burnout".
By the mid 90's I did something a lot different and left NJ, I went for a career in the military.
@@metalmike570 from my understanding, most of the jobs created by casinos , whether in construction or the industry itself, went to people who didn't live in AC.
The nice lady you interviewed Nick is a good example how people make it look it’s “not too bad living in these areas”, hence accountability goes out of the window and complacency sets in. Sad but true … please don’t normalize the decay and crime
Absolutely. I was a kid in the 80s and this place was struggling then. I think the glorious days left in the 1930s.
I grew up in the ghetto and I hate when people act like living in these areas is fine and dandy. No, no they're not. Not when you're struggling and you can't even walk out the front door because there's a huge group of criminals hanging out there making noise all night long. There were days they made so much noise, I couldn't sleep and had to work early the next day. It's always the same type of person who says these places are fine too if you catch my drift and it annoys me to no end.
@@saltycat662 well said
She was holding back the truth and you can tell. I think his video is early morning. Would show a lot more midday.
@@saltycat662 take a look at Vegas , and they have 3 police agencies.
I grew up about 15 miles from AC, and moved there when I was newly married. My husband was a cab driver and I cleaned houses and waitressed. I was there when the voter referendum came up to allow casino gambling in the city. I vigorously opposed the casinos because I knew what they would do to the city with its shakey infostructure. AC was beautiful and fun in the '60s, '70s, and the beginning of the '80s. It was when then that the Mob out of Philly came in and infiltrated the casinos. We left in1984. I now live in Lethbridge, Alberta Canada and I love it here.
Wow, you really moved far away! Is it very rural where you now live?
Aren’t Canadians being stripped of freedoms ?
@@danyi6119 No, not at all. I`ve been here 20 years and life just gets better and better. Our freedoms are assured by the Charter of Rifgts and Freedoms, and even though we have some problems, we are better than ever!
@@seascape35 I live in a city of one hundred thousand and am 2 hours away from Calgary with a population of One million six hundred and eleven thousand. In the 2 hours in between the cities are some tiny towns but mostly farmland and ranches.
@@imapo82day ok, I heard that certain groups were being targeted up there.
As someone who has strong roots in Atlantic City there are some shady areas but not all of Atlantic City is a mess. The areas south of Tropicana casino in the Chelsea area and further south when you get to Ventnor are pretty much safe clean areas.
It was always like that, I grew up in the 70's there and always felt better on the end you mentioned. I left in 1998, enlisted in the military in my early 30's, then I ended up in the state of Virginia. I do miss some of the people and my relatives / cousins that are there.
Ventnor not da city ain’t shit past Chelsea but ventnor margate white ppl city’s
@@jojobean4211 They do take better care of their houses, I guess because their income was good enough.
@Bali Breeze Look I haven't been there for many years, that's the way it was. If you look at the video here you see all those spaces well they used to be older homes that were unkept. Obviously the town and the casinos bought them and leveled them out. What we see now here is a vast improvement. I don't need your input about home maintenance okay. Trust me, they didn't maintain them, and they've been razed by the casinos. and A.C. local government took care of it. I lived there in that area for 30 years before I left, from the time I was a kid.
I agree I go Margate in the summer . Or Longport I have family in Ventor Heights.
Gambling is the next worst addiction to drugs.
When I was a child, A man in my community decided he wanted to go to Vegas…..drove there in a nice car with a $1000 bucks in his billfold and hitch-hiked back home.
when you sell your car to pay for gambling losses, get help
The whole USA is on a downward spiral. Just take a look at the crime stats for all the major cities. If you did not know they were American cities you might think its Mexican cities controlled by the Cartels, or Brazil that has a number of the cities that rank most dangerous in the world. Remember, Empires are not destroyed by outside invaders but tend to collapse internally from decay, crime, and moral perversion, exactly what's happening in the USA.

Went to the casinos in the 80's and early 90's and AC was always a hole. Don't walk around the casinos or break down in town at night. Once at the casino, it felt fairly safe. But girls in front of the casinos and robberies were common. Most parking was part of the casino and was fairly safe. The boardwalk also felt safe and it was the best way to walk to the next casino even at night but less safe. It seemed like the casinos had some type of protection and kept AC at arms length. Also homeless seemed a less common problem.
As a kid living in 1970s' NJ, my parents decided to go AC for vacation because they heard about the Boardwalk, etc. needless to say when we got there we stayed one night just long enough to buy one of those souvenir plates that you hang on the wall and drove away before nightfall.
Same here.
AC was never on my list of places to visit and this just confirms it !!
@@SirManfly Don't listen to this guy, in the summertime the boardwalk is beautiful, plenty of restaurants, the amusement park and the beach parties and concerts are great. The casinos are loaded with food places and entertainment, and parties on Friday and Saturday nights.
@@zaycation8584 you are wrong……..it’s a pissssssssssssssshole…..mr.. kang BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
@@zaycation8584 7:17
Which dot are you?? 😂🤣😂🤣😂
To begin with, the casinos turned their back on the Boardwalk. They took a 5 mile long internationally famous and renowned asset, The Boardwalk, and treated it like a subway platform.
Well said, that is a great description.
You can't make money off of people wandering the boards. The worse the casinos can make the city seem, the less likely you are to venture outside.
I grew up right outside the city. My parents worked there for 30 years. Left in 2013, and never looked back.
as a person who was born and raised in atlantic city, I'm upset with the picture that you painted about my city calling it ghetto, most people that live here are hardworking, almost in poverty trying to make a good living in their environment. Sure from first glance we may not look the safest but if you just put that label on us then that's what you're going to expect. Actually take the time to be here for say a week and get to know how atlantic city really is. Sure we do have our share of crime but what urban city in america doesn't have crime ? Its not because of the people it's because of the shady government and politics that we live under. Not everybody and every place in atlantic city is bad and if you stayed here for a couple of days and actually walked around here without a camera instead of just driving through them with a camera you might actually get to experience the beauty in the struggle of Atlantic City.
This video review is trash. Homelessness in the city streets - who could imagine that. Let's judge some sick or struggling people walking outside on a Winter afternoon for my life is truly in danger from within my car.. IMO the majority of theft and/or violence likely comes from people that don't live there permanently.
I live in ac .. I been here my whole life and this man is so disrespectful ... Like omg Im embarrassed for him..
Agree; his video repeats because he didn't want to show some of the quaint "nice" spots LOL. Flew over Scranton U, breezed thru Ducktown.... and on a February day yeah who would you see strolling in 20/30 degrees with the wind factor?
Yeah, spend some time here. Wear a bullet proof vest. Take a drive through the projects. Look at the stores along Atlantic Avenue in Uptown Atlantic City. A disgrace, like Camden.
@@Jeff-uj8xi fear really does manipulate the mind with expectations and assumptions, camden is a much bigger city than Atlantic City so I can't really speak on it, but as far as Atlantic City, people don't bother random people at all, outsiders like you are what bring our city down because you compare our city to other cities around the country that are worse than ours.
As a Canadian, I drove through Newark once. Now I know what a post apocalyptic world looks like.
Before selecting a destination, check if it's run by dems first.
i would stay away from nj lmao. there's good small towns, but for the most part, there's few redeeming qualities about it
😆👊🏼
@Andy Witmyer yea as i said there are towns that are safe, i live in a very safe town in nj 30 mins away from newark, virtually no crime happens here, but theres nothing thats keeping me here. maybe im just a city person.
I delivered a semi Trailer to Newark ... U.K. today !
I visited AC 20ish years ago for work, and obviously things have not improved. The city limits used to run down the middle of the street; on one side were the casinos and on the other were slums. I had never seen anything like it. All the taxes raised from the casinos were funneled into a small city area and the rest of the city was the counties problem. City police all over the casino side while drug deals (and probably worse) in the open on the other. If we ever left the casino we did it in pairs, but looking back that was probably not enough.
Some real sh#$t bro😎 I went to the Bahamas islands few years ago....only advice, don't leave the turrist area , keep your boat in sight.
@@jacobrogers7363 during one of the hurricane down here I think it was Hurricane Dorian the Bahamas got hit very bad and you saw the people evacuated to the US half of the Bahamas people look ghetto coming for the Bahamas it was very surreal
I got a lot of family in AC, my mom grew up
there. It was run down before the casinos but in my opinion got worse with the casinos. Boardwalk & Pacific safe enough. Atlantic Ave during the day but gets pretty sketchy after that. Most middle class moved into the surrounding towns just outside AC.
What's really amazing is that most of the other shore towns in the area are really safe and nice. There's an absolute night and day difference between Atlantic City and nearby Ocean City.
Even Ventnor City is way different
I have never been to Atlantic City, but I have been to Ocean City a few times and it was fine.
@@NickJohnson True, same with Margate and Longport, all connected with AC on one island. Things deteriorate rapidly, though, as soon as you cross the municipal border between AC and Ventnor.
@@NickJohnson Parts of Ventnor City are a disgrace like Atlantic City. The part of Ventnor nearest to the border with Atlantic City is horrible. Hard to find many people speaking English. Those people are scrubbing the casino kitchen floors and washing the pots. That area has many absentee home owners interested in making a buck who rent to far too many people. It's not unusual to have eight or ten kids in a house. When one of those places burns down, thirty people are homeless. The city housing inspectors can't keep up with it.
Yet Ventnor is a remarkable study in contrasts. Certain parts of Ventnor has million dollar homes, like on the beach blocks, with very wealthy people. The high-rise condos along the Ventnor Boardwalk have very wealthy people living in them, often as second homes. Atlantic Avenue is the dividing line between slums, a seedy trash strewn area and big beautiful homes. When entering Ventnor, heading Downbeach, the first twelve blocks are a mess and disgrace. Past the WAWA store, the area is gorgeous. Then past that area it becomes seedy again.
One Ventnor area in particular, way out north of Ventnor Avenue near the Margate border, has multi-million dollar homes. I forget what that area is called. It's out behind Marven Gardens. Every driveway has a BMW, a Porsche, a Rolls-Royce Phantom, a
Lamborghini Countach LPI 800-4, a Bugatti Chiron, a Maserati, etc. I kid you not. It has to be seen to be believed. Yet a few short miles away is a seedy slum.
Wildwood is just as bad or worse. Major heroin problem. Tent cities behind Walmart and others areas. Don't be fooled by the commercials. Do a video on that town.
15:53 - between about 1969 and 1980, AC was a toilet. The rise of the casinos, starting with Resorts in 1976, was a reprieve from a lot of the poverty. In the 1970’s, the mob sent Nicky Scarfo down there as exile/punishment because there was no action.
That's right, voting casinos in - and they do provide a lot of work and attract tourism. It was part of A.C.'s revitalization. In many ways it is a success. Some of us remember the lack of work / unemployment in the early to mid 70's.
Atlantic City is one of those places locals like to avoid. I as a South Jerseyan personally haven't been there in over 7 years. A lot of crime and illegal activity happens there. It's not the worst town in NJ as that distinction goes to Camden one hour away which is 15 minutes from my house. Only reason many would go down there is for the casinos, Bass Pro Shops, restaurants, and free beaches. Most South Jerseyans go down to beaches in Cape May and Ocean Counties. AC does have an outlet mall that kinda serves as its downtown and they have a dead mall on a pier that once housed many upscale stores. The AC area is a tourist dependent area just like the rest of the Jersey Shore but is kinda poor in many areas. There are nice middle class suburbs like Linwood and EHT but awful ones nearby like Pleasantville and Egg Harbor City. No super wealthy towns like those you can find in Monmouth County like Rumson-Fair Haven and Spring Lake. Politically, AC votes Democrat just like any other inner city (although they elected a Republican mayor in 2013) but the metro area as a whole votes Republican like the rest of the Shore. Interestingly, AC's public school district is not an Abbott District unlike other urban school districts in the state but still terrible schools. AC struggles to diversify its economy as attempts to build water park resorts have failed and they still heavily focus on gambling with the opening of the Hard Rock and Ocean and Bart Blatstein planning a new casino for the Showboat. City's bad rap kina prevents non-casino ventures from happening. They were however able to open Stockton's AC campus right on the boardwalk.
Born and raised in. Camden, been in AC for 18 years and never experienced the bs I have here.
Hey neighbor I’m right outside of Philly but more south like deptford/Woodbury area
Hard Rock Casino . . . used to be Trumps 'Taj Mahal' . . . 😬
Any time that name is replaced is a good time.
I've never been there. My mom grew up in the 70s by new York City and she went there for vacation a few times in the 70s and 80s. She said it was a shithole then and I can see nothing has changed in 40 years
Well you're mother is right. It hasn't changed in 40 years....so I don't expect it to change another 40 years from now.
Your mom sounds roughly my age. My wife grew up in the 70s in NYC and I grew up in the Philadelphia area in the 70s. My parents took the family to the Jersey shore frequently, including AC, in the 70s before we moved away and then I went back to AC several times in the early 90s as young adult. Your mom is right, it was a real shithole back then.
I used to go there a lot in the 1990s and 2000s. It was great then. But the 2009 recession really killed the city and it never recovered.
Then Trump Taj Mahal and other iconic places left.
I grew up in south jersey I lived in Atlantic City and around it .. I was never unsafe there is so many good people but there is bad also like anywhere else. When u come specifically to film the bad spot that's what your going to get .. I'm guessing this was ur goal correct? So take this with a grain of salt.. this video anger's me so much . And I hope everyone from Atlantic City that sees this tell the real trust .. horrible absolutely horrible
Stop the bs this city is done
I was raised in South Jersey also. '69-87
Word. This lil man needs a spanking or a bottle
@@tombrady2734 you’re so dramatic. Every time I go there it’s packed with people.
I was there 3 weeks ago with my dad to see KC and the Sunshine Band and I was walking all over the boardwalk and Pacific Ave in the middle of the night and never had any problems. I walked from my room at Bally's to the Maxi Mart beside McDonald's near the outlets at like 3am and sure I saw hookers and dealers but nobody bothered me at all.
14:23 - the more south you go on Absecon Island, AC - > Ventnor -> Margate -> Longport, the more affluent it becomes. Year-round population in Margate and Longport is sparse. Longport PD is more like a security company for the rich.
I visit AC all the time. As long as you stay by the boardwalk and casinos and stay away from residents, you'll be fine. Its a struggling city but lands on its feet. It was way worse in the 80s and 90s.
I've lived here since the early 1950's. It was a different world back then. I wish you guys could have seen it. Department stores, 5 & 10 stores, many movie theatres, large crowds on shopping nights, super markets, hardware stores, restaurants, diners, Christmas lights on Atlantic Avenue, Pacific Avenue, the Boardwalk, and even on Arctic Avenue. Christmas lights on the Monument and in the park in front of the old High School near Albany Ave. It was a gorgeous display. Now nothing !! And lots of parades on the Boardwalk and Atlantic Ave. People today can't imagine it. Even trolley cars running on Atlantic Avenue. I rode on them. Fare 15 cents. Jitney was a dime.
@@Jeff-uj8xi all of America has gone to shit since the 1950s. I'm 37 years old and I just shake my head at this colossal shithole we now have
I visited there around this same time. Outside of the boardwalk, unfortunately much of the city and the surrounding areas are very depressing. I wanted to get out of town after about five minutes of being in town!
Last time I went to Atlantic City, was New Year's Eve 2005, we drove from York, Pa. Watched the fireworks off the boardwalk. It was still bustling back then. I've since moved to Colorado and now drive to Las Vegas for fun.
I grew up in South Jersey and still live in South Jersey. I went to high school in AC. AC had the chance to clean up the city after casinos got voted in to law. Instead the casinos horded the money and now it's a ghetto with casinos. Had the casinos invested in the city and made AC a destination resort the city would be gorgeous and prosperous.
Was born in New Jersey in 1964, and went there a couple of times. I cannot remember too much, but the heat and humidity was horrible in the summer. At the age of 4 it was off to Idaho, then Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Maine, Colorado, Oregon, Washington, finishing high school there, then California. No more east coast, whole family is out west. Greetings from Switzerland, 33 years now. All good.
Switzerland was the only place that kept its borders safe in "The Camp Of The Saints"
@@arthedainedain9846 If you want to keep it right you have to keep it white.
@@MasterMalrubius Jesus.
You seem like a really lucky guy!
New Jersey native here settled in Switzerland as well. Seeing these streetscapes of AC it just drives home how grateful I am to have gotten out of NJ. And I know not everywhere in the US is like this, but in all honesty, my feeling is that, over the 4+ decades of my life, the whole USA is moribund. So disappointing and depressing.
One thing about his videos is he never shows what he is talking about. All he does is show empty streets while claiming there are all sorts of crime on them
You expect him to have footage of crimes in progress? 😂
Well why not? Are we just to assume all these places are bad,just cause he say so?
hahahah because its the only way he knows how to get views. he didnt even go to AC. just paid someone to film the area and then interviewed some people from his moms basement
What they be doing here on RUclips.
@@nattyforlife8393 Do you have to actually go to Chicago to know it's bad when the murder and shooting statistics already show that it is? Do you need to get hot sauce squirted in your eyes before you know it will burn? LA has tons of robbery and crime but even living near it and going sometimes I haven't directly seen it. The odds of catching a crime in progress, even in bad areas isn't that high if you're just driving through or only there for a day.
Atlantic city has been like this since the day the casinos got into town, legalized gambling contributes to cities falling apart.
I'm A.C. born and raised from the Inlet. And I go back every few years to see family, and it gets worse every time I go back. It's always looked like this.
There's an "elephant in the room" in all of these discussions but we're not allowed to talk about it openly and honestly.
@Sin526
You mean Black people?
Pretty easy to say.
No one tells me what/how to say/think.
Yup! And this is why the deterioration and crime continues because no one will fix the problem let alone talk about it!
Trumps failed casinos?
@@bazodee2 LOL, nice try simp.
Nice to know that there are no white addicts there.
I was born in AC. Ac is very transient and actually too diversified. We used to have cohesive neighborhoods good and not so good but probably better in some ways because they were cohesive neighborhoods. Now, even on the boardwalk, it's chaotic. Ocean City for example is mostly families and some locals. Wildwood is mostly families and noisy college kids. Ac boardwalk used to say have a loud moment here and there but now there's families, drunks, winos, hard core gamblers, business people, college kids, locals, hoods, prostitutes, little kids sitting on the stoop next to a massage parlor right off the boardwalk where there once was a nice neighborhood, etc, etc. The worst neighborhoods are right next to the police stations? This has spread to the once nicer cities surrounding it. It needs locals but doesn't really want locals. It doesn't know what it wants to be. It just knows it wants your money.
This place has been disgusting throughout my life - and I'm 71. My grandparents, parents, friends and I loved visiting all of the shore points - except Atlantic City.
Went there yesterday. Walked around the neighborhoods. The home structures looked like the houses will fall to the ground. The food restaurants sell dried up shit "food". People did not look healthy. I cried at seeing such devastation. I wasn't afraid of being robbed or attacked, as people didn't look healthy enough to get into a scuffle with me. Lots can't even stand up straight and I saw alot of overweight people. No one looked healthy enough to get into a scuffle.
My parents and I used to visit Atlantic City in the early 1990s. We'd typically stay at the Days Inn along the Boardwalk. We enjoyed walking along the Boardwalk and riding in pushcarts. I have fond memories of riding on the indoor roller coaster at TropWorld (now Tropicana). They had a kiddie gambling section inside the Ocean One Mall, where you could gamble with tokens and win prizes. I recall their having an amazing buffet at the Sands. Finally, I remember some weird Miss America exhibit which was indoors along some corridor with moving walkways. It was fun. Even back then, though, we never ventured far from the Boardwalk, as we knew things got pretty sketchy pretty fast. I think we went to church one Sunday at a church a couple of blocks inland, and I remember being glad we were there on a Sunday morning and not on a Saturday night. . . .
the Miss America exhibit was on the people mover between the boardwalk and the Sands Casino. When the Sands was leveled to make room for a never to be built bigger casino, the walkway went with it.
Let’s be honest here. Atlantic City on weekends, Friday - Sunday is packed. The hotels are sold out. The restaurants and nightclubs are packed. Borgata and Ocean Casino are Vegas like resorts. Yes the streets are very bad. Stay in the casino, and on the boardwalk. You will be fine.
Its funny that you choose someone who's not a true Atlantic Citian, someone who can't really give you the true sense of being from Atlantic city.
as someone who lives in atlantic county outside of the city, its not unusual that atlantic city gets horrible reviews. yet the surrounding communities, for the most part are not so bad. they can be desireble communities to live, work , and raise a family
@Bali Breeze i have a while i'm in buena
Exactly. Born in AC and moved away 20 years ago..family in Egg Harbor Township and Galloway. He is truly embellishing for likes.
🦢 I’m really disappointed in your total negativity of Atlantic City, NJ as just about anywhere in our country one can find many a town facing similar issues. Yet families have remained raising their children for generations creating fond memories to last a lifetime. Sure the old stomping grounds may change, favorite hangouts and restaurants might be replaced, but it’s home forever in our hearts.
Atlantic City is like amusement parks in the Northeast. The bad weather makes it only popular in the summer. There is no marketing possible to fix bad weather. Connecticut Indian casinos stay popular to loyal consumers by catering them with luxury, rooms, meals, gifts, shows, etc. Connecticut gives their customers the wealthy lifestyle like Las Vegas. Atlantic City used to do this too but not anymore that is why their businesses have gone down.
Atlantic City is home to the largest pipe organ in the world. It is in the Boardwalk Convention Center. The organ is in the process of being restored. Also the Boardwalk Center has another smaller pipe organ -their Ballroom organ. Also under restoration. Both of these organs are “holy grail” for organ fans.
Wow 🎹
In 1975 I stayed right near the board walk for a week end and was out all day and most of the night. People were friendly I saw cops patrolling here and there. There was no graffiti/violent crime there yet that I could see. But I stayed mostly by the boardwalk area. It's nothing like what I saw back then.
I used to go to AC about once a month for the weekend. It is best to stay inside your hotel, gamble there, drink there, and use the restaurants there and then leave. There's no reason to walk the streets.
I worked in Newark and the Salt Water Taffy city in the late 1970s when the Resorts casino just open. Atlantic City was bad then. I can't imagine what it's like now, but my experience prompted me to move to a southern state as soon as I retired.
That’s sad, Atlantic City has the potential to really nice, imagine if they cleaned up the boardwalks, gif the hotels upgraded, the streets cleaned, the burnt out crack houses demolished and replaced with brand new housing and putting in plants, landscaping and trees… it’s like a mini extension of Camden or north Philly that happens to be located along the ocean!
Correction, it’s not a short train ride from New York City, it’s a long agonizing bus ride that drops you off in the worst bus terminal you’ve ever seen
Well people loved coming in just the same. I would go meet my girlfriend when the bus came in, she was a slot player. And for us that was more than 20 years ago.
The bus ride is honestly not that bad. The bus terminal is rough lol
@@dylanhom58 How long ago because a decade ago they built a new bus terminal.
@@metalmike570 I took the bus pretty regularly from end of 2019-beginning of 2020. It's got a bunch of cops in it so I was never really worried about getting robbed, it's just dirty, a lot of people begging for change, but it's also not like you have to be there for all that long
@@dylanhom58 Are there still Jitney's running? It's been a long time since I came back to
check out A.C. and surrounding areas.
Camden on the Atlantic. Can't imagine gambling online. Being in the casino is all part of the experience
Hmmmmmmm . . . and I'd stay away from Camden, drugs & guns 💀
Probably smells like one big ash tray inside the casino.
I taught ESL there in the early 90's. End of every day multiple squad cars were lined up out front of the high school to do who knows what. My students typically lived in group homes where people on night shift slept in the kids' beds during the day. Three teachers there were also part time dealers at the blackjack tables. I had a neighbor who dumpster dived the casinos and once brought me a 100 lb sack of brown rice tossed out because of a few weevils. Brigantine was nice back then. But meth called crank was really popular among the night shift casino workers as was moonlighting to get by. I have many vintage beach photos of family in AC in the 1920's, a more innocent time.
@@marcusleja7133 Hi Marcus, yes, very bad in Phoenix for a long time.
@Bali Breeze real world
There is a homeless shelter . . . behind the Convention Center. Residents work the boardwalk . . . during the day ! 💀
But tourist probably don’t even know that
@@niceandflyy They sure don't! Pacific Ave is not the safest but there are maybe 2/3 spots tourist folks hang
Paul, What you are referring to is the Atlantic City Rescue Mission. But most of the homeless in Atlantic City are living under the Boardwalk. It's like a city down there and it's not just the Atlantic City homeless living there. Homeless people from many other areas come to Atlantic City to live there. Nick Johnson should have checked that out. He would have been appalled at what he saw. That should have been in this video. And Johnson should have driven through the projects in Atlantic City. Stanley Holmes Village would have been delightful. But he would have needed a bullet proof vest just to drive by. He might have been shot in the crossfire. And Johnson should have shown the huge vacant lots where casinos have been torn down.Included are the Sands, The Playboy/Worlds Fair, Trump Plaza, etc. A tour through abandoned casinos would have opened some eyes too.
This video is incredibly misleading. I've been going to Atlantic City for well over a decade and I have never had an issue. In fact, I have always enjoyed myself. It's like any other city - you just need to watch your back. This video was borderline disrespectful.
Agreed!

I really like the shift where you’re starting to tell the truth instead of dance around it! 💯
Honestly i like what you are doing. Probably the best yt channel talking about America’s problems (crime, homelessness, poverty). Lot of politics should watch this. I believe in the future someone become smarter and start fighting against this situations.
i’m surprised that in 30 minutes there are no comments that say
“jersey sucks 😒”
All my life i’ve thought the beach was the only part of the city and atlantic city was so beautiful, but when we when inside the city to eat lunch,
i saw so many rundown houses and sad people☹️.
I go to AC often and have since the 80s. There are plenty of good places to go but you have to know what to stay away from.
jersey does suck, thas why its the top #2 place that people are leaving in droves , daily
@@tommytomtomt but in the good places the population is going way uphill

Went there two years ago with a friend and I was surprised how run down it was, overall super ghetto
The US has lost 5 million and 500 thousand manufacturing jobs since the year 2000 mostly due to offshoring. Only the politicians can fix that. The politicians are getting paid very well and they should be held to account. You have to fix the circumstances to fix the poverty and crime. You can' just decide to do it. It needs to be a collective effort or the rich can be the only ones to get richer if they live long enough. It's like you want to blame the livestock for the ranchers failures.
The politicians deliberately destroyed America
@@zyx7478 Couldn't see past their billfolds.
Ever since NAFTA it’s been downhill. Once great cities like Detroit are now run down and deteriorated
@@skatevidcentral And what did we get in return? Junk for cheap.
Never fails to make me laugh: white guy driving in a black part of town and going ' OMG...what a terrible place !!!
Gambling only came to AC in the 1970s.
It has been controlled by a certain party for 60+ years.
Billions wasted yet they have an iron grip on power.
The state of New Jersey, charges so much in tolls, it's rediculous; yet has the most atrocious roads ( so many potholes) known to man. It's so bad it'll make Detroit look like Beverly hills
Delaware is the same way.
Last time we went to AC was to see friends and that was 6 years ago. Only there for maybe 4 hours and that was enough for us. We drank at the Irish Pub which was nice and my AC friend is always posting to DOAC. Thanks but twice was enough for us,. It's sad because it was once a beautiful place.
I would like to thank this lady for the advice. I won't wander around at night neither. This isn't a pleasant thing to do, due to it's safety measures, even I waited and waited for the Jitney that never showed up, but called a cab instead. She's very true about this wandering around at night. Not a good idea, unless you're that prepared this these types of surprises.
it's a little better in the summer when there's actually people around, but yeah, it used to be great once. Lots of fun arcades back in the 80's. A lot of people from Philly would go there, but now that there's casino's in Philly, and nicer beaches just a few miles away in safer and cleaner suburbs, there's really not too many reasons to go there anymore.
I love nicks videos but sometimes I feel like he doesn’t see the beauty of bad neighborhoods. I also love visiting very bad neighborhoods but I see a beauty in the perseverance of people and the love they still have for each other. Also, I enjoy them because they are NEVER boring. I get bored with suburbia
Man I had some of the best nights in my life in Atlantic City. Spent a lot of my late teens early 20's there. It's always been the same honestly. It's not as dangerous as people make it seem lol
It's so sad. We went for years , and our most recent trip was shocking. Heartbreaking to see the rundown hotels and businesses.
Why shocking? I’ve grown up in this area. It’s nicer now than in the early 2000s
@@Dalt21 glad to hear. Sounds like I need to take a closer look.
@@leftybelle7022 it’s definitely not as pretty as vegas or the other jersey shore towns south of AC. But the casinos are always lively. And with Stockton university having an AC campus, they’ve definitely been making the southern section of AC look nicer. I’ve grown up here, and it’s always looked kinda run down in ways. My mom was born and raised in Ac during the 50s to early 70s and said it’s always been pretty rough. I still recommend it to people, but always recommend cape may first before AC lol
Are people high on here? I went twice this summer and it's been great. Nothing that different at all from there or any other beach. Just the addition of more things to do like beach clubs, night clubs, etc
I used to go to Atlantic City in the early 2000's, and loved it. I stayed at the Hilton, Resorts, and the Tropicana among others. I was treated well, and everyone was really cool. I remember a beach bar that had bands playing, and met some very good people. It was no Vegas, but at least it was within driving distance. Always felt safe. Some of the best times of my life were in Atlantic City, and everything was very cheap, and the service was excellent. One time, I hung out at the Trump Marina beach bar and met 30 women, who were there for a co-workers retirement party. The waitress kidded me and said, "there you go, your the only guy, you must be in Heaven. She was right. I, along with the 30 women partied all night, and at the end I got a picture taken with all of them that beautiful summer evening. GOOD TIMES!!!
Hating on AC makes Nick Johnson feel better about himself; it amazes me how willingly this man broadcasts his personality disorder
When you going to the hills of Appalachia? I'm so excited to see the communities in the Tennessee mountains and the Kentucky hills. Virginia would be nice too. Why don't you show us what's happening in those places...I'd love to see you interview a few of those people.
During the winter months it’s super dead. Once it get warm, the outlet, boardwalk and even pacific Ave has people walking up and down
America needs to start doing things very differently. Both harder and more caring. Harder on losers, drugs addicts and criminals. Easier on families and people trying to make it.
I'd vote for you.
You sound like you’d be an advocate for lobotomies.
Lol I never felt threatened in Atlantic city but everything he said is true Im just saying you have to know how to navigate these ghetto neighborhoods and you'll stay safe.
9:10 . . . vacant property was in 1998 - The Sands Casino, first to fall/fail of casinos, on the boardwalk ! 💀
There were a slew of hotels , Sands was not the 1st to fall. Locals tell me when the family amusements started to taper off on the boardwalk it was gradual downward spiral. Coney Island at least kept that Family aspect....
I’ve spent 4 months living in AC. One week in got robbed at my apartment while sleeping (somebody came through the neighbors window got in the hallway and went to our room which wasn’t locked that night). They took my iphone and my roommate lost $500. Then I got shot in the leg with a BB gun. My roommate also got robbed in the street once more weeks later. They were armed.
I just got back. The place is a cesspool. Garbage everywhere and deterioration everywhere you look. Never going back.
😢
Love your vids, mate!!! Truthful and a touch of humor!!!
I've been in Atlantic City when I was there it looked like a dump in some places and great in others. This was crazy to me. Nick could you please do a video about the best and worst cities and towns in New Jersey???? I want to know more about all of New Jersey!!!!
Outside of a few urban areas, NJ is a wealthy and beautiful state. A home can be expensive in most of the state. I've lived here for over 30 yrs. As long as you stay away from certain areas, it's very safe. For instance ,if you go to the towns north or south of AC , they are nice, clean, and low,or no crime.
are you mentally ill???? The whole of NJ is hell on earth, why do you want to live there???? Take your meds, PAL
No, you don't. Born and raised, then got free and moved to California. Moved back when my mother was sick a couple years ago. My cousin-our family-mostly lived on the same street.The last family member said shootings got so bad, he moved out. That's when I knew it was bad. If anyone wants a REAL horror story, go to Cumberland County. Makes me sad.
@@allanbard6048 the whole place is a dump bro. Nebraska is much nicer, what are you saying???
JERSEY IS A LIBERAL DIRT HOLE! THE DEMOCRATS DESTROYED IT! THE PEOPLE THAT LIVE THERE WILL VOTE FOR DEMOCRATS UNTIL THE WHOLE STATE GOES UNDER!
Even as a kid in the 1970's my parents would not take us to Atlantic City. They thought it was a sleazy, seedy place. They would take us to Wildwood instead.
I went to school when it was still Stockton College in the early 2000s. I lived in Galloway, Pleasantville, Brigantine, and Mayslanding. But never in AC. Not even when I worked at the Borgata for several years 03 to 04/05. The boardwalk at night has always been a no go if you had half a brain. We only went into AC for trouble. Maybe it's worse now but AC itself has always been a rundown and dangerous place.
All cities in the USA have these problems. It seems to me that folks that live in the country are scared to go into the city. I grew up in Philly and this is just another city to me. Folks that live in the city have street sense and are unafraid. Fear only attracts the negative elements to you. If your a babe in the woods go to Cape May.
Without industrial / agricultural jobs the decay is certain....everywhere
I was born and raised in Atlantic City. I’ve been here for 64 years. In the 60’s and 70’s A.C. was hanging in there with amusement piers and the beach. The blight was already in the city and getting worse. With the introduction of gaming in 1978, things started to move. Old hotels were either torn down of set fire. I joined the fire department and stayed for 25 years. I watched as the city slowly died and watched as it was reborn. The main cause for the cities decay……………..poor government and poor leadership both from Trenton and the city. Now, I go to the city to see a show or to eat. The poverty is everywhere and the crime is bad. On the positive note, excellent shows and concerts. Great selection of eateries. And a fanfastib
Gheessh, you make it sound like the worst place on earth! The police presence in AC is amazing and everyone on Pacific abd Atlantic Ave. know this. I wouldn't walk around any city at night, but AC is definitely safe in shopping areas off the boardwalk during the day, like Tangers "The Walk" in AC. No problems whatsoever! Let's not scare people away from a cool city with a lot going for it, free beaches, outlet shopping mall, casinos, stores on the boardwalk, amusements, night clubs, concerts. AC rocks baby!
As a native I still feel like if we got less corrupt politicians and focused more on other things besides the clubs and casinos to catch up with the times we could be much better, not the level it used to but something more than it is now
🏖 I grew up just inland from the city; reminiscing from the age of 70 now. In my humble opinion it’s always been an older historic seaside town. There’s a certain charm in these small town old brick building structured homes and storefront businesses as well as the infamous boardwalk. Although the casinos promised to improve the city that never really happened. What did was the running off of elderly folks that were once able to afford housing on the shore front while enjoying their walks along the boards, the fresh ocean breeze, feeding the seagulls and hearing laughter of children building sandcastles on the beach while chasing incoming waves. Atlantic City is a part of my childhood memories filled with Easter dress ups and walks on the boards, Steeplechase Pier, amusement rides and sticky cotton candy, enjoying the scent filled air of freshly roasting p’nuts and catching a glimpse of
Mr Peanut greeting folks, three wheeled rolling chairs being pushed along the boards, Taylor Pork Roll restaurant luring hungry folks in, freshly made Belgium waffle ice cream sandwiches from a boardwalk vendor’s cart, Fralinger’s salt water taffy, a summer job in a small p’nut and candy shop, digging my toes in the sand while tanning my youthful body, seeing Lucy the Elephant further down along Ventnor’s beachfront, etc etc etc. 🏖
