In San Diego the reality is not the border issue it’s the fact that housing is becoming rapidly unaffordable and that investing groups have bought up nearly one fourth of the home if not more.
born, raised, still living in and raising a family in san diego. downtown and san ysidro don’t define the county. they just attract all the attention. however, 80 miles east in jacumba i actually saw a migrant camp first hand. about 200 people standing around the side of the 8 freeway. tents and burning trash cans. no border patrol in sight. even the check point was unmanned.
I think that's a transfer camp. I've driven by a couple times now and the last time there were unmarked buses and a food delivery. My drive from SD to texas highway 8 was FULL of unmarked and NGO marked buses and vans moving people
Speaking of NGO's, for those who might presume that they are funded by charity... they are governmented funded. Calling them an NGO is very misleading.
a long time ago my mother would always say that she really didn't feel sorry for most homeless people because in her words 'they want to be homeless.' I never really understood or believed what she was saying up until about 6 years ago when the homeless problem started to explode and there were governments trying to house these people. Homelessness is more of an addiction problem than anything in my eyes. It's about people that are so addicted to drugs that they would rather live that life where they can do anything they want and have no accountability and rules than actually live in a home with some accountability and rules and have to get off drugs and alcohol. It sounds harsh and callous, but in the majority of cases it's the stone cold truth.
Rent cost between $1,000 and $2,000 every month, and always get more expensive all the time with no improvement to property. Once you get an eviction, no one will rent to you. Should I have to live under a bush forever now, because I was late once with my fortune to the Landlord Kings?

As someone born, raised and currently living in San Diego it is a shame what our rotten politicians are doing to my hometown! The homeless situation is out of control, fortunately I was smart to buy a condo in 2016 when it was pricey but not outrageous yet but i know of many people who can't buy anything cause it is too expensive even to rent is bad and to finish it off we keep letting in more migrants which I think we need to stop doing for a few years at least until we clean our city and state before it is too late!!
I’ve lived in San Diego since I was a little kid. It’s become a disgusting hell hole with homeless junkies everywhere and I do mean EVERYWEHRE. Found one camped outside my patio a week ago. Actively seeking opportunities outside of San Diego and California. As soon as one arises, I’m out of here as fast as can be. Too bad, used to love this city but I’ve had enough.
All I see when I go to San Diego, is a bunch of 20-30 somethings, in their Teslas, all going out to eating and drinking, for every meal of the day. Paying $3K a month for a one bedroom.
I live here. And there a fair share of that but there’s insanity more illegal Mexican and Chinese. Bus loads and bus loads. Drive farther south or anywhere out east.
If you got money it’s not bad. Majority of San Diegans don’t got it like that though 🤣 You go anywhere else besides the north and all you see is homeless encampments.
Born and raised in San Diego.. Grew up in Pb and eventually moved out due to pricing, etc. Yes there's a homeless issue but everyone exaggerates on the "crime" mind your business and no one bugs you. LA is by far worse! I love San Diego, it's expensive but it's better than living in the midwest and a lot of places in the U.S. You can drive up to Orange County and enjoy a relaxing weekend, mountains, trails, beach, and much more,
Im in the midwest. I respect your weather 10 fold but Id rather have the possibility of owning a home rather than consistently being broke or having to live with 10 people just to make rent. Visiting San Francisco a couple of years ago was a real eye opener on how bad it is over there for just the weather in exchange.
@@alex84127Born in Ohio moved to LA to where I reside now Phoenix..I just spent 4 days this week in San Diego it was a fantastic experience got lost in Gaslamp district at 2am (forgot my garage) and even walking around downtown at that time I felt safe!

@@xcreenplay7264 not too bad of course every city has its bad areas but Oceanside is by the beach so pretty nice actually that’s about 40 minutes from Wher I live but I visit
If you think it's bad, better reconsider! The conservative numbers over 3.4 years is well north of 18 million and for every 3 registered invaders there is 1 got away. That's close to 25 million!
I'm 53 years old, and a 2nd generation San Diegan / Imperial Beach. SD used to be America's finest city, it sucks now. Dirty, vandalized, lawless. Plus the raw sewage Mexico has been dumping in the ocean. I can smell it from my house, makes me sick.
You’re being replaced for one. Two, they are trying to buy their votes, three, the progressives hate America and want to destroy it. It’s all intentional and by design. When you wake up, you will be able to see that.
My wife and I went to San Diego and stayed at a nice hotel in the gas lamp area as it was recommended by friends and coworkers for our anniversary weekend. We felt unsafe walking on the streets after dark. There are tons of homeless on the streets and they are actively harassing people. We got asked for money repeatedly and when we refused they yelled at us. The city is cleaner than Sacramento but the homeless is out of control.
I'm native north SD county. Remember when the former gaslamp was cleaned up. It was a great place. So sad it's returned to it's former state of drugs, crime and homelessness. Wonder how Carlsbad to LA Jolla are doing?
I mainly stay at Coronado when I go to SD area. Nice hotels an restaurants, golf, biking, beach. Not a single homeless person on Coronado Island. I think the police drive them back over the bridge if the do show up there.
@@socalwildlifeencounters2349 There may be a lack of resources there, pressure from the hotels, local ordinances that prevent them or a combo of the three.
The real fucked up thing is that as a degree qualified engineer from Europe, if I tried to legally emigrate to the US, pay taxes there and contribute to the US society it would be extremely difficult.
I am an american living south of the border and can't get a visa for my wife and son to go see my grandfather but all my criminal crackhead neighbors walked right accross the border.
No chance. Much closer to 20+Million in 3 years. You can NOT wake up and leave your home anywhere in Southern California* and go to a public square, qrocery store, department store, convenience store, or gas station without an 86% chance the first voice you hear will be speaking Spanish. *A 30-month study conducted by 65 adults in a geographic area covering San Diego to Santa Barbara (S-N) and Santa Monica to Indio (W-E) provided that data.
10 million is what the msm and talking heads say- double that. Just like inflation # are 3 % from the government. Everything is 20% last 12 months. Don’t believe anything they say. They are lying to your face.
Because those states aren’t going around saying how awesome they are while ignoring many glaring issues. California is the poster boy for bad policies.
Or Texas. Highest maternal mortality rate in the nation. One of the highest rates of congenital diseases in the country. Their foster care system is so bad federal government has had to come in and force them to improve it, and the TX government is fighting them tooth and nail on that.
So, long time resident of San Diego and honestly can say I love it. As I’m watching this and reading the comments; Im currently in Vienna typing. So if I can share an interesting perspective. Europe is nicer, cleaner and the people here are calmer and more grounded. I’m born and raised in California……one of the few natives. I can see now why people are moving overseas. There is no Utopia. Life is what you make it. But even the food is higher quality here in Europe. I’ve got NO axe to grind. But people wonder if even “Americas Finest City” aka San Diego lives up to its reputation vs life elsewhere. Not really. There is better if your willing to change
Good for you that you found a place you like. The food and everything is better because they grow it. Europe has a connection with their environment. Americans have a connection with movies and corporations. The place you discovered is europe is just the planet earth. It's like those Planet Earth BBC documentaries that are popular. You live on earth. You shouldn't be excited to watch earth on tv. You should go outside.
@michaelb7718 Hi there. I lived in downtown of San Diego betweem February 2019 to June 2021. I lived in East Village on the 13th street. I simply loved it. It was so nice, great and beautiful. I worked in the VA in La Jolla. I have an opportunity to come back to San Diego again. Do you think the downtown of San Diego changed a lot in the last 3 years? Is it worth going back to San Diego?
Lived here in SD since the early 70's. Growing up in the 70's and 80's was great. Retire from my job next Spring and moving out of state. It's become a ridiculous sh*thole here. Can't wait to leave!!
The drug addict overstated a reality many have a hard time coping with. A lot of folks simply don't want to be helped or conform to the rules or rigmarole of daily life. Problem is we have too many simps, politicians, and activists willing to drag down the rest of society to prove otherwise 🤷♂️😐
Very few are disappearing into the neighborhood. Use to be worse when there was no fence 40 years ago. They would actually be in the neighborhood hiding behind bushes.
Fourth generation san diego native here" The mental and or homeless business is not lucrative " That is why investors are not lining up to invest. It is not a government issue or a mayor issue it is we the people. One dollar from everyone every year would not hurt . But wait a minute , They have been taking more than one dollar from everyone for many years through taxation "....what the hell has the government been doing with our money ? The Answer: Investing in lucrative business like wars and opium . In order to make an impact you have to go after the bankers that launder large amounts of drug money that they know comes from drug profits.
I live in Ocean Beach in San Diego and it’s a weekly occurrence of a boat, motorboat, panga, jet skis all coming up on our beaches and the illegal immigrants jumping off and running up the beach up the street to waiting cars! It’s absolutely unbelievable. We just sit with our mouths open watching. there’s nothing we can do. We are being invaded.
lol You obviously live in an urban area you have chosen for its convenience and ease of living, ..there is a lot of open space in the rest of America but you have to work harder to live there. 8/
How will US grow economy? How have they done in past? How will we compete with China and India who have 1/3 BILLION people without consumers to buy shit. It's a big puzzle.
We were in San Diego in August and stayed in the Gaslamp district. I can’t tell you how horrible it is there. The amount of homeless drug addicts and tents. California needs to clean itself up!
10 years ago, San Diego was 100x nicer than LA for being able to enjoy the city without being faced with the decay of western society. Today it’s only 10x better, and in another 10 years it’ll be the same.
For the last couple years I've been seeing large unmarked white buses on the highway and often stopped in town, usually near the motels. These buses are the kind used for interstate travel, and they always have very dark tinted windows. When the sun is low and the bus is backlit, the silhouettes of passengers are visible - these buses are definitely not empty! But when they stop in town, I've NEVER seen any passengers outside the bus, the way you might with a typical tour bus. Movements of people is happening without being witnessed. Super sus!
It's an ongoing issue all up & down the West Coast from SD to LA, from LA to Riverside/San Bernardino, from Riverside/SB to Orange County (the O.C.), all the way inland to Bakersfield, from Bakersfield to Fresno, Malibu & Oxnard to Santa Cruz/Monterrey, from Santa Cruz/Monterrey to San Jose, from San Jose to San Francisco, San Francisco to Oakland, Oakland to Stockton, from Stockton to Sacramento, Sacramento up to Redding in far far Northern Cali & finally from Santa Rosa CA to Eureka CA. You could even include Indio/Palm Springs/El Centro in SoCal. It's virtually everywhere in California now. Drugs, homelessness, illegal immigration is running rampant. Been hearing horror stories about Portland Oregon & Seattle Washington too. I'm sure it's as far East into Yakima, The Tri Cities, Walla Walla & Spokane Washington as well. I've heard it's Cancerous all throughout the entire state of Oregon, into Medford & Eugene. It's even made it's way into VANCOUVER, CANADA. Watched a couple of YT videos about how bad it's gotten in Vancouver, of all places. In Arizona from Tucson to Phoenix. And then also from Yuma to Las Vegas Nevada. I'm sure Reno is having it's "fair share" of issues as well. Seen some pretty bad videos of Denver & Salt Lake City too. Austin, Texas is pretty bad today as well. Can't imagine Albuquerque in New Mexico being any better. The West is in pretty bad shape. And then you've got places like Kensington in Philadelphia on the East Coast. Places in Jersey & some spots in NYC has to be pretty bad. I hear Baltimore, Detroit & Chicago (Chiraq) got some tough places. Minneapolis has been on the news more than enough times. Saint Louis, Missouri is in SHAMBLES & I hear Memphis is doing pretty badly. America is crumbling & dying slowly. Looks like our "Fate" might be that of ROME & BABYLON. Although, we're starting to resemble Soddom and Gomorrah. Every last one of the most powerful empires throughout history has fallen. No empire reigns indefinitely. Each one had to crumble sometime or another. It's inevitable.

Confused why everyone talking so much trash about SD. Just moved here and it has less homeless than Honolulu or Austin both of which I’ve lived in, and I’m paying that same in rent that my friends are in both places
Also I talked to the State Park police here at Torrey pines in San Diego.. I asked if a ponga boat came up what could they do and they said they had to stand down.. also I asked what if I did something they said I would get in trouble..wtf?😕
Tulsi voted for Biden and open boarders. Now acting like she didn’t while making a documentary and selling her book. She is gross. Don’t let a pretty snake trick you.
I am in San Diego, 25 miles from the border -- except for cracked-up roads that weren't here in the 1990s, and a generous sprinkling of homeless people that also weren't here 30 years ago, San Diego is PARADISE -- but Joe, definitely keep scaring people away from SoCal with videos like this, because we don't need any more people in SoCal (including from the other 49 states).
@michaelb7718 You are correct, Sir -- Downtown, OB, Midway, and south of I-8, there are lots of homeless -- like I said, I'm north of Mission Valley, so it's much better. But yeah, the homeless have an entire "village" Downtown. Cheers.
SD resident. Blocks away from City Heights Center where they brought people in from all over the world. The mayor's office and councilman's offices wouldn't even tell us what was going on when you called. It's so dark.

@@briandwiggins1576 so I should just take her word for it on how much she changed her view on gun control? Assume she's no longer a socialist because she says so?
It’s gotten really bad here, I’m 4th generation from San Diego, the people commenting that it’s not that bad out full of it, they are most likely all tourist and they go to the tourist part of the cities that the city keeps clean, south east, east and south San Diego are over ran with tweekers and homeless, and downtown is Superbad, we passed San Francisco’s homeless population a little while ago and our lame ass mayor Todd Gloria is to busy building bike lanes instead of addressing the real issues. Anyone saying differently is either a bot or straight up lying 💯.
Man, you people are divas. I’m in San Diego all the time, have been for 18 years, and it’s a perfectly nice experience. Crazy how a city that’s always sunny could have so many snowflakes.
Let me tell you something about san diego. Today I went to the desert (Anza).I went the mountains ( julian). I went to the beach ( oceanside) ALL IN ONE DAY!
One of the most desirable places in CA. We’d all love to live there. Apparently the Governor gave it to the illegals. I live in the state Capitol, he gave that to the street people.
I live in SD, native. Border Patrol is dropping them off at the SD Airport and at Trolleys. This world is falling apart right before our eyes, not just San Diego. SD used to be a gorgeous city, the leaders have ruined it. God help us all....Daniel 2:44
I've lived my life in San diego and what is happening here is sad, disgusting, terrifying and completely avoidable. Nobody is talking about it. People are living their life in a bubble. Right now they are busy celebrating Mexicans (Cinco de mayo) when they should be protesting the open border. It is dumbfounding how so many leftwingers can be so utterly ignorant to the struggles they have brought upon the masses. They will learn soon enough. Shitte is going to hit the fan big time by the end of the year. Much worse than 2008. It will be apocalyptic. And I will have left this place for greener pastures by then.
Serious question: America demographics are okay, but not at replacement levels - in the past how have we dealt with this? Immigration. In a capitalist society you need consumers - India has more than 1.3 BILLION people same with China - How can America compete? We only have 330 million and the Boomers are retiring and not spending - we used to bring the best and the brightest, but they have other options now - like Switzerland. Generation Z is small and not inclined to have children - I am against illegal immigration, but America is going to have to bring in immigrants to keep the economy going - that's what we have always done. Now factor in climate change.
Lol talk about over exaggeration SMH. News watcher at their finest right here...probably doesn't leave the house but wants to tell us how it is out there.

As a Native American hearing this is funny lol especially from those that have a problem with the “illegal immigrants” 😅 take your own advise and go back where you’re ancestors came from if you gotta problem with it.
I live in La Mesa, which neighbors San Diego and is right next to SDSU. I work in San Diego. It's nice where I live and San Diego doesn't have as bad a homeless problem as the Bay area. I see some homeless in La Mesa, but not as many as San Diego.
@michaelb7718 How long have you lived here? OB has had one of the highest concentrations of newly homeless in the country for DECADES. I was volunteering with homeless intake in OB 30 years ago and it was number one in the country. You guys all buy the nonsense the mainstream media (FOX) spouts off without question, yet think you're onto some secret truth. Absurd.
As do I, the difference must be you shelter in your house and dont go outside let alone downtown or any of the areas actually effected. Or you live in North County which sees little to non of this lol
40 years in CA. It’s crushing what democrats have done to this state in the name of “compassion” and “inclusion”. There really is no law and order here anymore. A guy high on drugs drowned in our local city lake Saturday night deciding it was a good idea to swim across.
As a former California resident who moved in his 20s to California for college and spent a decade there, it's sad to see what California has become. I got back once a year but it's not the same place because it's over run with mentally ill drug addicts and while I believe people should have a chance at the American dream if they want to come and work for it we should not give away resources to people of other nations before we invested it in citizens first who pay taxes and are born here it's ridiculous.
I live in San Diego. Specifically in Nestor, couple miles from the border. Things have gotten a little better. Ever since the Supreme Court ruled cities have the right to ban sleeping on public spaces, the city wasted no time to start cleaning up the streets. Of course there are still people out there living on the streets, but it has definitely improved from the dire state it was in. Border crossings have significantly dropped as well ever since President Biden put asylum restrictions with executive action and that’s also true nationwide. Feels good when we can come together and take action, but we still got a lot of work to do.
There’s 340 million of us. It used to be that you could just be a ditch digger and drift from town to town at least being somewhat productive. That’s not really possible anymore so now we’re seeing the runoff just live in the streets and die from drugs. I know it’s cold to say this but nature is handling it’s own business here. They’re never going to do anything with their lives, let the drugs do what they do best

LA is by far worse! I love San Diego, it's expensive but it's better than living in the midwest and a lot of places in the U.S.
You can drive up to Orange County and enjoy a relaxing weekend, mountains, trails, beach, and much more,
Exactly! I don’t think these folks even be visiting the cities they be talking about 💀
Im in the midwest. I respect your weather 10 fold but Id rather have the possibility of owning a home rather than consistently being broke or having to live with 10 people just to make rent. Visiting San Francisco a couple of years ago was a real eye opener on how bad it is over there for just the weather in exchange.
@@alex84127Born in Ohio moved to LA to where I reside now Phoenix..I just spent 4 days this week in San Diego it was a fantastic experience got lost in Gaslamp district at 2am (forgot my garage) and even walking around downtown at that time I felt safe! Tbh I saw the same amount to slightly less of the homeless that I do in Phoenix…tbh I don’t think things is San Diego is that bad compared to LA

I live in San Diego! Undoubtedly the best city in America
I live in SD Chula Vista …. All along the South Bay freeways all u see is homelessness tents and filth everywhere it’s a sad thing to see daily but I call it home
Yea anywhere near a trolley station or near the 5 freeway theres alot of homeless.. the more east you go the less there is.

I'm 53 years old, and a 2nd generation San Diegan / Imperial Beach. SD used to be America's finest city, it sucks now. Dirty, vandalized, lawless. Plus the raw sewage Mexico has been dumping in the ocean. I can smell it from my house, makes me sick.
I lived in IB 36 years. Sold and left in 2017. Even IB has changed too much for me.
Well most places passing Coronado going north are not as bad.
Same, born and raised here. Recently moved back here , less than a year and I’m ready to leave.
Remember who you voted for.
We used to vacation in SD every year. It’s an absolute shell of what it used to be. SD is an absolute garbage dump on par with LA now.
Live in San Diego. Its only a matter of time. If my daughter wasn't here, I'd be long gone back to the midwest.
My parents say the same. They won’t go until/unless my sis and I go

My wife and I went to San Diego and stayed at a nice hotel in the gas lamp area as it was recommended by friends and coworkers for our anniversary weekend. We felt unsafe walking on the streets after dark. There are tons of homeless on the streets and they are actively harassing people. We got asked for money repeatedly and when we refused they yelled at us. The city is cleaner than Sacramento but the homeless is out of control.
I'm native north SD county. Remember when the former gaslamp was cleaned up. It was a great place. So sad it's returned to it's former state of drugs, crime and homelessness. Wonder how Carlsbad to LA Jolla are doing?
I mainly stay at Coronado when I go to SD area. Nice hotels an restaurants, golf, biking, beach. Not a single homeless person on Coronado Island. I think the police drive them back over the bridge if the do show up there.
You gotta go to coronado if u want to feel safe

So, long time resident of San Diego and honestly can say I love it. As I’m watching this and reading the comments; Im currently in Vienna typing. So if I can share an interesting perspective. Europe is nicer, cleaner and the people here are calmer and more grounded. I’m born and raised in California……one of the few natives. I can see now why people are moving overseas.
There is no Utopia. Life is what you make it. But even the food is higher quality here in Europe. I’ve got NO axe to grind.
But people wonder if even “Americas Finest City” aka San Diego lives up to its reputation vs life elsewhere.
Not really. There is better if your willing to change
Good for you that you found a place you like. The food and everything is better because they grow it. Europe has a connection with their environment. Americans have a connection with movies and corporations. The place you discovered is europe is just the planet earth. It's like those Planet Earth BBC documentaries that are popular. You live on earth. You shouldn't be excited to watch earth on tv. You should go outside.
San Diego is amazing. One of the best places you will ever see.
@michaelb7718 Hi there. I lived in downtown of San Diego betweem February 2019 to June 2021. I lived in East Village on the 13th street. I simply loved it. It was so nice, great and beautiful. I worked in the VA in La Jolla. I have an opportunity to come back to San Diego again. Do you think the downtown of San Diego changed a lot in the last 3 years? Is it worth going back to San Diego?
Eh like 10+ years ago
Used to be!!

Lived here in SD since the early 70's. Growing up in the 70's and 80's was great. Retire from my job next Spring and moving out of state. It's become a ridiculous sh*thole here. Can't wait to leave!!
The drug addict overstated a reality many have a hard time coping with. A lot of folks simply don't want to be helped or conform to the rules or rigmarole of daily life. Problem is we have too many simps, politicians, and activists willing to drag down the rest of society to prove otherwise 🤷♂️😐

The mental and or homeless business is not lucrative "
That is why investors are not lining up to invest.
It is not a government issue or a mayor issue it is we the people.
One dollar from everyone every year would not hurt .
But wait a minute , They have been taking more than one dollar from everyone for many years through taxation "....what the hell has the government been doing with our money ?
The Answer:
Investing in lucrative business like wars and opium .
In order to make an impact you have to go after the bankers that launder large amounts of drug money that they know comes from drug profits.
This is all intentional. Chaos leads to tyranny, because the state must provide you more and more security as the chaos increases.
I live in Ocean Beach in San Diego and it’s a weekly occurrence of a boat, motorboat, panga, jet skis all coming up on our beaches and the illegal immigrants jumping off and running up the beach up the street to waiting cars! It’s absolutely unbelievable. We just sit with our mouths open watching. there’s nothing we can do. We are being invaded.
Like everywhere else in the country have houses for these people? There is NO ROOM.

We were in San Diego in August and stayed in the Gaslamp district. I can’t tell you how horrible it is there. The amount of homeless drug addicts and tents. California needs to clean itself up!
Sad to hear this. I remember going to the gaslamp around 2010, it was quite nice then. Such a deterioration of our cities.
10 years ago, San Diego was 100x nicer than LA for being able to enjoy the city without being faced with the decay of western society. Today it’s only 10x better, and in another 10 years it’ll be the same.
From the cradle to the grave, 9 million people to be taken care of
Growing up here in Imperial Beach it is definitely a problem. Mar Vista High School Class of 95. Still live here. 👍
For the last couple years I've been seeing large unmarked white buses on the highway and often stopped in town, usually near the motels. These buses are the kind used for interstate travel, and they always have very dark tinted windows. When the sun is low and the bus is backlit, the silhouettes of passengers are visible - these buses are definitely not empty!
But when they stop in town, I've NEVER seen any passengers outside the bus, the way you might with a typical tour bus. Movements of people is happening without being witnessed.
Super sus!
never gonna happen power to the people who love each other
It's an ongoing issue all up & down the West Coast from SD to LA, from LA to Riverside/San Bernardino, from Riverside/SB to Orange County (the O.C.), all the way inland to Bakersfield, from Bakersfield to Fresno, Malibu & Oxnard to Santa Cruz/Monterrey, from Santa Cruz/Monterrey to San Jose, from San Jose to San Francisco, San Francisco to Oakland, Oakland to Stockton, from Stockton to Sacramento, Sacramento up to Redding in far far Northern Cali & finally from Santa Rosa CA to Eureka CA. You could even include Indio/Palm Springs/El Centro in SoCal. It's virtually everywhere in California now. Drugs, homelessness, illegal immigration is running rampant.
Been hearing horror stories about Portland Oregon & Seattle Washington too. I'm sure it's as far East into Yakima, The Tri Cities, Walla Walla & Spokane Washington as well. I've heard it's Cancerous all throughout the entire state of Oregon, into Medford & Eugene.
It's even made it's way into VANCOUVER, CANADA. Watched a couple of YT videos about how bad it's gotten in Vancouver, of all places.
In Arizona from Tucson to Phoenix. And then also from Yuma to Las Vegas Nevada. I'm sure Reno is having it's "fair share" of issues as well. Seen some pretty bad videos of Denver & Salt Lake City too. Austin, Texas is pretty bad today as well. Can't imagine Albuquerque in New Mexico being any better. The West is in pretty bad shape.
And then you've got places like Kensington in Philadelphia on the East Coast. Places in Jersey & some spots in NYC has to be pretty bad. I hear Baltimore, Detroit & Chicago (Chiraq) got some tough places. Minneapolis has been on the news more than enough times. Saint Louis, Missouri is in SHAMBLES & I hear Memphis is doing pretty badly.
America is crumbling & dying slowly. Looks like our "Fate" might be that of ROME & BABYLON. Although, we're starting to resemble Soddom and Gomorrah. Every last one of the most powerful empires throughout history has fallen. No empire reigns indefinitely. Each one had to crumble sometime or another. It's inevitable.
SD was nice while it lasted. Left in '09 and don't miss it.
The worst thing for the opioid epidemic was Narcan.

How? It may be the worst thing to an addict, but it does not only serve addicts. Cops get exposed to shit all the time and it has saved their lives.

Bro same I'm 100% through the VA and I'm still homeless. Illegals are getting more than us.
How are they finding jobs and you aren’t?
@rawpower12xu they don't want to mow lawns and do labor work. No one wants to do these jobs but the immigrants do
@rawpower12xu really thought you did something there huh? Dunce.
Try to get help through the VA they have programs for homeless veterans.
Confused why everyone talking so much trash about SD. Just moved here and it has less homeless than Honolulu or Austin both of which I’ve lived in, and I’m paying that same in rent that my friends are in both places
Also I talked to the State Park police here at Torrey pines in San Diego.. I asked if a ponga boat came up what could they do and they said they had to stand down.. also I asked what if I did something they said I would get in trouble..wtf?😕

I am in San Diego, 25 miles from the border -- except for cracked-up roads that weren't here in the 1990s, and a generous sprinkling of homeless people that also weren't here 30 years ago, San Diego is PARADISE -- but Joe, definitely keep scaring people away from SoCal with videos like this, because we don't need any more people in SoCal (including from the other 49 states).

@michaelb7718 What neighborhood do you live in that's so disgusting and gross? Just wondering. Do tell.
@michaelb7718 You are correct, Sir -- Downtown, OB, Midway, and south of I-8, there are lots of homeless -- like I said, I'm north of Mission Valley, so it's much better. But yeah, the homeless have an entire "village" Downtown. Cheers.

Let me tell you something about san diego. Today I went to the desert (Anza).I went the mountains ( julian). I went to the beach ( oceanside) ALL IN ONE DAY!
Everyone should see this
born and raised in san diego and i promise you its not trashed just expensive. and it has nothing to do with illegal immigrants
One of the most desirable places in CA. We’d all love to live there. Apparently the Governor gave it to the illegals. I live in the state Capitol, he gave that to the street people.

Serious question: America demographics are okay, but not at replacement levels - in the past how have we dealt with this? Immigration. In a capitalist society you need consumers - India has more than 1.3 BILLION people same with China - How can America compete? We only have 330 million and the Boomers are retiring and not spending - we used to bring the best and the brightest, but they have other options now - like Switzerland. Generation Z is small and not inclined to have children - I am against illegal immigration, but America is going to have to bring in immigrants to keep the economy going - that's what we have always done. Now factor in climate change.
Move to La Jolla or Del Mar like the rest of us.

I live in La Mesa, which neighbors San Diego and is right next to SDSU. I work in San Diego. It's nice where I live and San Diego doesn't have as bad a homeless problem as the Bay area. I see some homeless in La Mesa, but not as many as San Diego.
How much is your mortgage and/or rent
Your town burned in 2020. La Mesa is a problem too. You may live in a nice pocket neighborhood and go home when the street lights come on.

Yup! The only people I see in the streets doing drugs and living on the streets are American Citizens not illegals.

@michaelb7718 How long have you lived here? OB has had one of the highest concentrations of newly homeless in the country for DECADES. I was volunteering with homeless intake in OB 30 years ago and it was number one in the country. You guys all buy the nonsense the mainstream media (FOX) spouts off without question, yet think you're onto some secret truth. Absurd.
I live in East Village. It’s bad. I’ve lived in SD for 20 years. Open air drug use is as common as seeing someone walk their dog. Crazy

As a former California resident who moved in his 20s to California for college and spent a decade there, it's sad to see what California has become. I got back once a year but it's not the same place because it's over run with mentally ill drug addicts and while I believe people should have a chance at the American dream if they want to come and work for it we should not give away resources to people of other nations before we invested it in citizens first who pay taxes and are born here it's ridiculous.
I live in San Diego. Specifically in Nestor, couple miles from the border.
Things have gotten a little better. Ever since the Supreme Court ruled cities have the right to ban sleeping on public spaces, the city wasted no time to start cleaning up the streets. Of course there are still people out there living on the streets, but it has definitely improved from the dire state it was in.
Border crossings have significantly dropped as well ever since President Biden put asylum restrictions with executive action and that’s also true nationwide.
Feels good when we can come together and take action, but we still got a lot of work to do.

There’s 340 million of us. It used to be that you could just be a ditch digger and drift from town to town at least being somewhat productive. That’s not really possible anymore so now we’re seeing the runoff just live in the streets and die from drugs. I know it’s cold to say this but nature is handling it’s own business here. They’re never going to do anything with their lives, let the drugs do what they do best
