“City is out of control” is hilarious, you obviously haven’t been to the west coast. People move to Charlotte because it’s a generally nice and safe area. Have lived here for over 5 years
Having been to a lot of cities charlotte is easily has some of the worse trenches in America. However it’s not very wide spread compared to some other cities.
The fact that more like you are moving to NC to get away and get to a safer place , but yet still vote the same way that you did in the area you were, makes our cites become what you left. It's only getting worse.
I grew up in Southwest Atlanta. You guys are correct about the "Hood". The hoods were made to keep blacks and everyone that's not white. I'm from back in the day they kept us where they wanted to go get us when they needed us
I live in Charlotte and love it here. The first area you drove through was sugar creek/ hidden valley area. There's more suburbs than hoods in the Queen city.
How many times did you circle that one area in order for you to be harassed by that guy? People aren’t stupid and will likely point out suspicious things like cars circling blocks. I live in Charlotte, and the area being filmed is currently being gentrified. I’ve driven through there for work almost daily without issue.
Since 1976, I have lived in this neighborhood (off of Eastway/ Shamrock Dr. / Central Ave. ) I have seen this city go from good to bad. I have seen alot and have been involved with city public service. YES, you are right. The city is out of control. This area is NOT being gentrified--- No, this area is NOT being gentrified. And, I have talked to the City until I was blue in the face! I want to make my point clear. Plus, it is very upsetting to watch the city throw money into the rich neighborhoods (Ballentyne, the South End, the North End, West Charlotte, when we here in (EAST Charlotte, where you videoed, have been trying for 20+ years for them to do something with the 80-acres at the old Eastland Mall area. I use to go to Eastland Mall for shopping; but when it became infested with drugs, gangs, shooting (now like Northlake Mall), it was DEMOLISHED. The crime in East Charlotte is ridiculously high. Now the city is finally doing something with the Eastland Mall area- exactly what, we don't know. They go back and forth, back and forth- (all talk and no action!) for 20+ years now. Just today, I was at the ALDI on Albemarle Road and there were gun shots in the apartments behind-- this is an everyday occurrence around E.CLT. To prove, I have bullet holes where a bullet came into my bedroom wall and went across into my bathroom wall and into the next wall across. Last night the CMPD chopper was over my backyard and police cars were flying down my street. Later I saw on 'Next Door' the person was arrested. I am a pastor, and this is were the Lord has me planted amongst the most multi-cultural part of the city where the immigrants/ refugees mostly settled- many of them have done very well financially & socially.. and have moved to other parts of the city.
@FLINTmitten810 Oh believe me I grew up in WI. Had to move to SC because the winter is so miserable and lasts for 6 months. It got to -40 a couple years ago
@avengedfingsevenfold meh. It depends on the locale. Grey skies are depressing in Charlotte because there's not much natural beauty around. Just hoods and burbs all around. In places like Seattle, you're surrounded by Evergreen trees, cherry blossoms in the spring, and mountains and water all around you so it contrasts well with the gray skies. Blue skies are great too, but you appreciate nature more in some cities regardless of the weather.
My biggest real complaint about Charlotte is that it’s difficult to get a place to live. It’s not *that* affordable (I can’t afford a place in Charlotte by myself without assistance). The housing authority just recommends you shelters and one shelter makes you call some number (closed after 5 and on weekends) to be accepted just to get in. I think trashy people are attracted to Charlotte from other places and if you have a bad encounter with someone there chances are they’re responsible. They’re probably also occupying the shelters and housing assistance workers, which a city this size doesn’t have enough of. But instead Charlotte keeps building luxury apartments and condos, which we really don’t need more of.
Yes. And the city council is forever talking about "affordable housing, affordable housing..." but, please tell us, city council, where is the "affordable housing"? And, to whom is the housing affordable??"
@@rarefruit2320 I was waiting for someone you to say something like this. And nobody needs this type of attitude. It doesn’t benefit you to think this way and it certainly doesn’t make my life easier. You could actually incorporate sympathy into your words to others, but why have you instead chosen flippancy?
As someone who was raised in Charlotte, and has also lived in Philly, New Orleans, oakland, and nyc, and been to every continental US state i can say that Charlotte is one of the least dangerous major cities in the country. Ive walked all over all the bad neighborhoods in Charlotte and never felt threatened in the least so yall are dramatic af with the title of this video.
Same here. I'm born and raised in DC, but now live in Charlotte NC for the last 14 years and this is really like one big suburb. It's literally the cleanest city I have ever been to. And this is a good thing. We should campaign for more cities like this.
I'm born and raised in Charlotte and yall got it twisted. Charlotte has become a horribly dangerous all over. And I was born in Lakeview raised in Dalton Village and shit is much worse now than it was back then.
🤔🤔🤔 This video basically showed one small area. This is the sugar creek area, and this person went into the Hidden Valley Neighborhood near sugar along with a little bit of the eastside of Charlotte. A lot of those areas are currently being gentrified and a lot of it is being torn down and new buildings are being built just like the rest of the city 💯💯
63 yrs old. Lived in Charlotte all my life. My job i saw the good side and the bad everyday. Seen good neighborhoods go bad, and seen bad neighborhoods turned good. You make loops through some areas like that and your gonna be spotted and approached, sometimes shot at. But Like most cities, you have city/ county officials saying they are gonna make it better is just all talk. Charlotte officials have always wanted it to become another Atlanta.
I was eating lunch at an out door Cafe downtown and a guy parked at the curb got out and deficated in the gutter. That was bad. The waiter said, they usually do that at night.
Yes I've stayed in Atlanta for 2 years, it's more dangerous walking to the store there than Charlotte. Have u see the residential neighborhoods, 3 or 4 blocks of borded up house and apartments line the streets there. Charlotte has rough areas, people here know not to go to those areas, sugar creek is one of the roughest parts of the city, but Atlanta has much more rough areas and Baltimore, Houston, Detroit, even Memphis.
You have to understand Charlotte is one of the largest cities in the US. I live in a suburb west of Charlotte and am extremely familiar with the city. For a city its size (890,000), the crime rate isn’t that bad. One of the lowest rates of homelessness, one of the cleanest. You went through very select neighborhoods like Hidden Valley, trying to portray it as the norm. Most areas are actually very nice, again, for a city its size. I would never want to live in a big, central city of a metro area. Its liberal policies just create too many problems like you see in SF, LA, NYC, Portland, and DC. But Charlottes suburbs are great and the city itself is safe if you use wisdom and just stay out of the few ghetto areas. We have been here for years and have never had a problem.
well, this is our second trip here and both have been a nightmare. maybe the out of state tags make us a target, not sure. thats not a paid actor homie really was wild
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS You can find nightmares in any large Metropolitan city like Charlotte. I live in Miami and an acquaintance of mine who lives near Liberty City tells me that he often hears gunshots late at night and his neighborhood has experienced a string of break ins ever since he moved there to be close to his family.The crime rate in Charlotte is quite low compared to other large cities including Miami.
Jose likes to trash a lot of places especially major cities. Yes they all have their bad parts just like most other big cities . This guy is always seeing the bad stuff.
I agree, you can find bad areas in (Any) State or City in America, if you look long enough. Looking at this video you are just circling the block over and over in one area. You have to show the Good and the Bad of any State or City to be fair. Stop making videos that this, just is not right be truthful. This is not downtown Charlotte, I know this for a fact Just Joe
If I lived at that nice 3 story apartment complex I would be uncomfortable going to that Shell station, a lot of shady characters loitering around there. Then that weird guy yelling at you in the street of the apt. complex leading out, crazy. Be careful running over curbs, you don't have your truck anymore! I know you two had to get away for safety reasons, but I just worry, I'm old enough to be you or Katies's mom, lol, I just worry.
Yea. Go to any neighborhood where people are actively keeping a watchful eye for suspicious, unknown, and out of town cars. Keep making those kinds of loops. Then call them crazy for wanting to see whats up with you or at least get a good look at your face. With all the shootings in CLT, people will approach you first rather than wait to see what you're gonna do the next time you make a loop. I DoorDash in CLT. Be prepared to be approached if you're unknown and doing anything suspicious like this. I've never been bothered. But I also know how to make it obvious who I am and what I'm doing without saying a word. If you do this same thing in a Pineville or Ballantyne neighborhood, the reaction will be the same. But confrontation will be different. You'd be talking to the police.
Looking at this video and observing some of the landmarks like the Octapharma Plasma donation center you was near a very hood area called Hidden Valley. I'm not even from Charlotte and never lived there but I heard Hidden Valley was real bad several years ago. They had a documentary about this gang called the Hidden Valley Kings. Most of the places I visited in Charlotte was the southside area and all the local malls and Carowinds amusement park and Uptown Charlotte. I also visited Rock Hill ,S.C.
I remember when you lived in Naples and did Florida videos.I'm leaving ft Myers after 12 years and moving to rural North Carolina.Housing sucks here and to much crime.
Southern Life gets a hard on for driving around areas with impoverished Black residents. Then he likes to paint an entire city as being “out of control”. Smh
That does not look that bad. I hear the "Excuse me" from bums everyday driving home from work where I live, but I don't freak out. I carry, but never had to pull it. I just tell them I don't have any cash on me abd they normally go about their way. Not a big deal usually.
I'm sorry, but I don't understand the point of this video. You are purposely trying to find the worst areas in and around the city. When you actively go looking for something, you're going to find it and then you have a guy approach your car and you booked it outta there? If someone approaching your car saying "excuse me" scares you that much, then maybe you shouln't be trying to drive in shady areas. I've lived in in many cities and states, including Charlotte, and these are not the "real streets of Charlotte" by any means. Charlotte overall is a safe city, so stop trying to scare people with headlines like that just for clicks because it is completely disingenuous.
I lived in Charlotte in the Noda area for over 55 years, I finally moved and have never been happier, every damn time I would go to Food Lion on the Plaza at Matheson a creature would appear from behind the building and say "you got money man? I need to buy diapers for my babies" or some other B.S. lie, I had to even plan my gas fill-up because there would be another creature that would suddenly appear before me and want money, I'm so glad to be away from Charlotte, it used to be pretty nice but now it's too crowded with creatures.
That Food Lion has been robbed so many times it is unreal. My son went to visit his friend in NoDa they went to get something to eat and when they got back to his friends home and parked 2 Black guys robbed them, knowing my son to well he only had ten dollars in his pocket. Is this worth having a gun put to their heads? Only bad thing is his friend bought the house before this happened. So it hasn’t changed that much in years still robbing ppl and killings on 36th street. Glad I moved out of Charlotte even thou I was born there many years ago and my Mother also may she RIP. Yes both born at Presbyterian Hospital now Novant and yes even my Sons were born there.
Just a normal day in Charlotte. Dad was transferred to Charlotte in JAN 1970. It was a sleepy southern town.....still had Blue Laws. In 2001 I escaped Charlotte. But in 2019 we returned for a funeral. We stayed in a 'good' area eastside. When leaving we were attacked by a LARGE homeless man. We escaped again but almost had to run down a person in self defense. Eastway Dr is still in the good side of town....try 'Beattie For Roo' next time.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 wow that was a stupid comment to say, not even close. The murder rate alone. It takes a serious lack of knowledge to say something like that. Go read some analysis on crime and come back please!
Charlotte is one of the nicest, cleanest, most beautiful cities in America of it’s size. And statistics show that is much safer than the other major cities in the country
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS just look up the crime stats. It’s safe. Averages 7-11 homicides per 100k people. Most major cities are at about 10-25 per 100k. Data doesn’t lie
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS’ve lived here for 10 years, and it’s insanely safe, you’re not even from here, and had to go outta your way to find the very small hood area. I agree Charlotte isn’t one of my favorite cities, but it’s mainly because it’s boring, terrible traffic on the highways due to most of it being 2 lanes, terrible food scene, and a lot of rude/judgemental people. But acting like Charlotte is a dangerous city is laughable. I’ve felt way more safe here then I did in Jacksonville, Orlando, Atlanta, or LA. The only cities I’ve felt as safe in are Boston and Worcester mass.
At sugar creek rd there is an alternative school TPA I went to, there are teens there that have illegal firearms, vapes, knives, weed, and steal cars, and hang in gangs, luckily I never joined a gang bc some of em rlly shoot I heard. So to everyone saying Charlotte is safe, there are even adults who do the gang shit 😅
Sugar Creek ain't NEARLY what it used to be some years back...this is timid, there's air bnb's and stuff over there now 😂😂.....but dude was on yo ass about filming lmaoooo
This city is definitely not “ out of control” I can name 5 cities in North Carolina way more hood. Ever been to High Point, Fayetteville, Durham, Lumberton?
Bullshit Charlotte is one of the cleanest and most attractive cities I ever lived in don’t be fooled this is tamed compared to other cities that I have been in
Im from philly ,i just visited Charlotte a few days ago and it was beautiful, so i youtube'd are there dangerous hoods in Charlotte and came to this ,and if this hood look like paradise compared to philly 😂
I rather flee than have to pull. I am not saying i did this, but its something that will bother you for a long time even if it’s legally excused that doesn’t mean its what your gonna wanna carry with you. There was no reason to use it here. Some people are best not even having stuff like that around.
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS Interesting point of view. Would you consider telling me why you think is a crap whole?, I lived here for 20+ years, every since moving away from Miami but have lived through out the whole east coast in a much smaller timeline. There are things I honestly hate about Charlotte, such as the male to female ratio - also I hate the fact how much has the city forgotten its lower wage salary citizens. Yet I believe a rough 70% of citizens of Charlotte live considerable well.
“City is out of control” is hilarious, you obviously haven’t been to the west coast. People move to Charlotte because it’s a generally nice and safe area. Have lived here for over 5 years
So true. Fear is the order of the day to most sheeple
Nah it used to be more wild back before like 6-7 yrs ago i promise u

I live in Dallas. Literally EVERY city has hood areas and bad parts. But majority of Charlotte is beautiful.

That hello guy scared me
You were scared to death
Should've known not to record on sugar Creek 😂💀 but good content
well, keep in mind tho.. NOWHERE did the internet say this was a bad area... i was just free style driving thru
Could've at least said thank you or something. .
West Charlotte and Beatties Ford areas still stands the worst. Hidden Valley is a close third place.
Do one for the freedom drive area next! Toddville road. Scarlet pointe apartments is just as bad.
Looking at this video and observing some of the landmarks like the Octapharma Plasma donation center you was near a very hood area called Hidden Valley. I'm not even from Charlotte and never lived there but I heard Hidden Valley was real bad several years ago. They had a documentary about this gang called the Hidden Valley Kings. Most of the places I visited in Charlotte was the southside area and all the local malls and Carowinds amusement park and Uptown Charlotte. I also visited Rock Hill ,S.C.
We saw some had spots
Charlotte native!!!! You're right ab Hidden Valley!!!! This tour is like finding the shittiest
6:10 what was that about?
“Meow, Why you keep on?”
Yo do a St Louis / east st Louis tour !
I remember when you lived in Naples and did Florida videos.I'm leaving ft Myers after 12 years and moving to rural North Carolina.Housing sucks here and to much crime.
I was just going to say , have you been to San Francisco, L.A or San Diego lately ?
If you have , you’ll be so grateful to call Charlotte home
Hell even aurora co is worse . Lived there for a bit and damn near got robbed by dope fiends every damn night sftee work
Why he dip out like that lmao 🤣 😂 they just wanted to tell you your warranty expired 🤣🤣🤣
His warranty almost expired he lucky i was able to save him by leaving
Jose, can you tour Jacksonville NC
Southern Life gets a hard on for driving around areas with impoverished Black residents. Then he likes to paint an entire city as being “out of control”. Smh
The roads are horrible n hard to see the lines 🤦🏾♀️ plus’s so many rocks/pebbles on the roads
Try south Carolina roads
That does not look that bad. I hear the "Excuse me" from bums everyday driving home from work where I live, but I don't freak out. I carry, but never had to pull it. I just tell them I don't have any cash on me abd they normally go about their way. Not a big deal usually.
No! He said ma’am why you keep. Oh boy took off! lol!!
Being close to Seattle here in Washington state..nothing can shock me anymore
reallly? seatle murder rate 1/10th of cities here on the east coast. more property crimes? i gotta get out here too
I'm sorry, but I don't understand the point of this video. You are purposely trying to find the worst areas in and around the city. When you actively go looking for something, you're going to find it and then you have a guy approach your car and you booked it outta there? If someone approaching your car saying "excuse me" scares you that much, then maybe you shouln't be trying to drive in shady areas. I've lived in in many cities and states, including Charlotte, and these are not the "real streets of Charlotte" by any means. Charlotte overall is a safe city, so stop trying to scare people with headlines like that just for clicks because it is completely disingenuous.
I lived in Charlotte in the Noda area for over 55 years, I finally moved and have never been happier, every damn time I would go to Food Lion on the Plaza at Matheson a creature would appear from behind the building and say "you got money man? I need to buy diapers for my babies" or some other B.S. lie, I had to even plan my gas fill-up because there would be another creature that would suddenly appear before me and want money, I'm so glad to be away from Charlotte, it used to be pretty nice but now it's too crowded with creatures.
I am So sorry for you having to move. I know its not a good feeling. I don’t understand how so many people just accepted that bad situation as normal
@Dr. Sleep The NODA has almost been completely gentrified and has gone through many changes. A lot of the stuff their now is brand new.
That Food Lion has been robbed so many times it is unreal. My son went to visit his friend in NoDa they went to get something to eat and when they got back to his friends home and parked 2 Black guys robbed them, knowing my son to well he only had ten dollars in his pocket. Is this worth having a gun put to their heads? Only bad thing is his friend bought the house before this happened. So it hasn’t changed that much in years still robbing ppl and killings on 36th street. Glad I moved out of Charlotte even thou I was born there many years ago and my Mother also may she RIP. Yes both born at Presbyterian Hospital now Novant and yes even my Sons were born there.
the homeless people in our city are not creatures! Have some respect
Calling homeless creatures is a new low lol
What do you expect you pulled up on them like 3x at the gas station
I know I saw cars crossing through the train tracks when the red lights were on.
Just a normal day in Charlotte. Dad was transferred to Charlotte in JAN 1970. It was a sleepy southern town.....still had Blue Laws. In 2001 I escaped Charlotte. But in 2019 we returned for a funeral. We stayed in a 'good' area eastside. When leaving we were attacked by a LARGE homeless man. We escaped again but almost had to run down a person in self defense. Eastway Dr is still in the good side of town....try 'Beattie For Roo' next time.
A part of my family lives near sugar creek, it’s really not as bad as this video makes it out to be
Out of control? Hoods??? Charlotte NC is probably the safest large city in the USA.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 wow that was a stupid comment to say, not even close. The murder rate alone. It takes a serious lack of knowledge to say something like that. Go read some analysis on crime and come back please!
You definitely drunk for this comment….there was 11 murders in march alone here in Charlotte
Everyone claims Charlotte is a nice place to live untill their families are making the funeral arrangements
Bro dipped tf out 😂😂😂😂
You wanted me to stay??? 🧐
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS yea never know what them crazy fucks could do. It was funny af tho lol
im from tampa,fl.,lived in charlotte a few years...Shannon Park off of Plaza Rd...Charlotte was a very nice place
Charlotte is one of the nicest, cleanest, most beautiful cities in America of it’s size. And statistics show that is much safer than the other major cities in the country
🤣🤣🤣 keep thinking that!!! I travel alot. Charlotte never been on my list of places i enjoy or like
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS just look up the crime stats. It’s safe. Averages 7-11 homicides per 100k people. Most major cities are at about 10-25 per 100k. Data doesn’t lie
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS’ve lived here for 10 years, and it’s insanely safe, you’re not even from here, and had to go outta your way to find the very small hood area. I agree Charlotte isn’t one of my favorite cities, but it’s mainly because it’s boring, terrible traffic on the highways due to most of it being 2 lanes, terrible food scene, and a lot of rude/judgemental people. But acting like Charlotte is a dangerous city is laughable. I’ve felt way more safe here then I did in Jacksonville, Orlando, Atlanta, or LA. The only cities I’ve felt as safe in are Boston and Worcester mass.
You lack the knowledge & discretion to blend in and present an accurate portrayal of the area.
I LIVE IN CHARLOTTE AND THIS MAN SPEAKS THE TRUTH!!! MY NEIGHBORHOOD IS THE F$@CKING WILD WILD WEST!!!
At sugar creek rd there is an alternative school TPA I went to, there are teens there that have illegal firearms, vapes, knives, weed, and steal cars, and hang in gangs, luckily I never joined a gang bc some of em rlly shoot I heard. So to everyone saying Charlotte is safe, there are even adults who do the gang shit 😅
6:08 the dude trying to confront got me hollering
😐 on crackadope
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGSyou almost shitted on yourself and floored it because of a dude saying Excuse me 😂😂😂😂 you belong in the house bro, youre soft lol
Those elements should not be allowed to move from place to place
Sugar Creek ain't NEARLY what it used to be some years back...this is timid, there's air bnb's and stuff over there now 😂😂.....but dude was on yo ass about filming lmaoooo
I bet Charlotte was one of your more adventurous cities,never boring!,I bet you can't wait to move there!!
I can’t wait to leave 🤣🤣🤣
Go for a tour in Atlanta, Baltimore, DC, Louisville, Memphis, New Orleans, Miami. Then compare. Many might be glad to be in Charlotte..🤷🏾♂️
HOW DARE YOU throw MIAMI in there.. you are SLOW. I rather visit Miami, Louisville, NO, before charlotte. Lived in Louisville, worked in Miami.
Dang that same guy caught up with you again? Don’t kill yourself running from him though😂
Why did you use a photo of people waiting at a bus stop as the thumbnail? Whats bad about a bus stop?
Is this bc out of state plates?
This city is definitely not “ out of control” I can name 5 cities in North Carolina way more hood. Ever been to High Point, Fayetteville, Durham, Lumberton?
Bullshit Charlotte is one of the cleanest and most attractive cities I ever lived in don’t be fooled this is tamed compared to other cities that I have been in
Thank you bro
Im from philly ,i just visited Charlotte a few days ago and it was beautiful, so i youtube'd are there dangerous hoods in Charlotte and came to this ,and if this hood look like paradise compared to philly 😂
i NEVER had people attack me in philly..
I’m from Charlotte born and raised here. What you showing now ain’t nothing to how it use to be!!
charlotte soft asf
yea I say next time you go to charlotte jose you should buy a strap just keep on you just to be safe. that's if that state allows it.
You only use that in last option there was no reason to pull it here. Besides someone all zombied out wont be afraid
I rather flee than have to pull. I am not saying i did this, but its something that will bother you for a long time even if it’s legally excused that doesn’t mean its what your gonna wanna carry with you. There was no reason to use it here. Some people are best not even having stuff like that around.
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS true
🙃
Brand new apartments anyone?
So that guy meth speed ran the block up to the light and hit the back of the car or what?
i live in charlotte i never seen anything like this before.
To consider that here in Charlotte we live in a bubble considering what is happening to other major cities.
LOL, charlotte is a crap whole. one of my least favorite cities your police force is a joke too
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS Interesting point of view. Would you consider telling me why you think is a crap whole?, I lived here for 20+ years, every since moving away from Miami but have lived through out the whole east coast in a much smaller timeline. There are things I honestly hate about Charlotte, such as the male to female ratio - also I hate the fact how much has the city forgotten its lower wage salary citizens. Yet I believe a rough 70% of citizens of Charlotte live considerable well.
You haven’t seen out of control lmao. Also who the hell stops in the middle of a turning lane like that?
Yo mama when she sees a 🍆
I lived here for 5 years and loving it❤
Every single city in the united states has an area like this. Get over yourself.
every city in the crappy places you go to... i live in decent places
Born a d raised in Charlotte nc I've seen the good and bad here it's still a lot of hours here they don't play that shit
We need to share this to inform people not to move to Charlotte!
🤣🤣🤣
Wow the dude just walked up to your car , and he dont even know u , cause you on his turf , Niggaz boy lol
