HARLEM NEW YORK CITY HOOD - AMERICA'S MOST FAMOUS HOOD NEIGHBORHOOD DRIVE THROUGH
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 22 апр 2023
- We are in Harlem New York City, America's most famous and iconic hood. Harlem has a decorated history going to back to Dutch Settlement when it was mostly farmland but most of us now know it as being the highly urbanized, fast paced Black/ African-American and Puerto Rican strong hold in Northern Manhattan. The Graceland of hip hop, cultural epicenter and also in many instances its America's Most Famous Ghetto or hood... So we wanted to take a drive from West Harlem to East Harlem in 2023 on a 80 degree Spring day to see what Harlem is like now. Of course it's changed over time but is it good change? We stroll down Frederick Douglas Boulevard, drive across 125th and pass historic spots such as the Apollo Theater, ride down Malcolm X Blvd and end our ride on the East Side by 1st Ave. So is Harlem on the rise? Is it livable or miserable? Please watch and let us know what you think in the comments. Please LIKE if you like, SHARE, and SUBSCRIBE! Thank you for watching and most importantly ENJOY!

Im 3 hours and 26 minutes away from nyc. I just went there not to long ago. Had a blast. It was my first time ever in NYC.
I grew up in Harlem and worked for the state (NYS Dept. Of Labor)in an office building on 125th st.Everything is so familiar.
I really enjoy the fact that there's no talk except what you hear on the streets.I am an early 50's white Aussie man who after seeing a Woody Allen documentary and I don't even know any of his movies but just felt compelled to watch saw this area where he grew up, this set of shops In particularly and I just got this feeling in my gut there's where I'm from like I should be in New York. Thanks for this stuff it gives me a better feeling about New York than watching Kojak when I was younger. 😀
This may seem strange to some viewers, but in comparison to San Francisco's Tenderloin and Fillmore neighborhoods, the streets in Harlem are very clean. Harlem is much denser than most if not all of San Francisco but the residents don't seem duty bound to litter at every available opportunity.
Classic video tour of the streets of Harlem, the hood !
Very nice travelling along in the car with you. Much better than seeing these places through movies only. I have subscribed!
Hey Sofie. Thanks for riding along and keeping my company. Look forward to having you along for many rides to come. Have a great week!
I just love this wish I was still working at Taino Towers gained much respect there.
Me too lol
True, safer in the car
From Connecticut I go to Harlem often just to go. Train to 125th pretty cheap and easy. Been to Wagner and MLK projects
Thanks 😊👍
You're welcome! Thank you for watching! Glad you enjoyed
4:44 are those Polo Grounds? Good vid❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you! Thanks for watching!
No. Those are Fredrick Douglass houses. Polo grounds are in the beginning at 155th out of frame
I wish the neighborhood looked like that when I was growing up in Harlem in the 70s and 80s.😂😂 I grew up on 137th street between 5th and Lenox.
New York haven’t changed since the 90s I really miss nyc
Thank you for watching!
It's improve since the 90s, and you shouldn't of never left since you miss it so much, ain't no place more safer or better
come back dude. enjoy the highest crime NYC has ever seen under Mayor Adams and DA Bragg.. The filth, the rats, the graffiti.. it's awesome. and you get to live in some of the worst housing stock in America! the winters are great too. bone chilling cold from November until Late March..
@@frankgiuliano380 it takes a ignorant knucklehead like you to try to paint a picture about this dynamic city, but it ain't gone work, new York is not the only city that has rats trash crime and so forth, were not paradise and neither is no other city as well ok we have problems to what city don't fool? New York is great yes but it has problems like anywhere else ok so stop acting like its an oasis and not suppose to have problems. Your wasting your time.we love this city and we don't care what kind picture u try to paint.
Ny now is the best version of nyc..that guys Probaly not a native Nyer.. everything is down and it’s a lot cleaner than it ever was..ny of the past was a completely different animal compared to now.
I see a lot of nice cars for this being the "HOOD"
Selling drugs is very profitable.
people buy much more expensive cars than they should as well. average American car payment is 700+ a month
@@Landis_Grantso everybody that lives in the hood and drives a nice car is a drug dealer? How do all these people with all these nice cars all co-exist without killing each other over "turf"? Smdh.
@@Landis_GrantAre you looney? How are there 1000s of dealers in this few blocks of neighborhood shown? Harlem isn’t Kensington Street of Philly or Skid Row of LA
because this isn’t the 80s anymore where everyone drives box chevys also Harlam isn’t as bad as it was in back in the day.
That corner fried chicken store was there when I left NY in 2013
3:49 that use to be a barber shop on 144th st (Right Side)
1:24 all ghetto got a liquor store... there use to be a lot of bars in harlem
on the left... that use to be a small resturant 1:45
THANK YOU..
NEW YORK IS THE #1 CITY.
🤩"NoPlaceLikeHome"🗽"212"💖✌🏾
The projects even look nice. At least they don't tear their projects down. Explains why we don't see any ⛺ s.
Looks alright... wouln't wan't to live there though
This actually looks pretty tame for Harlem. Was your drive early in the morning? Also, did you edit out the bands of rogue dirt bike thugs?
Looks way way better than Kensington. I'm from Louisville & Harlem beats Louisville by a lot.
Louisville is a dump
You're clearly a suburban white person..where you from Quakertown PA? 😆... Kensington is the living dead..but no gang of dudes outside a cornerstore on Kensington ever started shit with me and randomly punched me in thr face. Then again I've just walked Kensington minding my business with my NY swag and my arms out of my pockets... so that's real talk
❤❤❤
how are there basically no cars on the road? heavenly traffic! 😃
The west side is cool, it's the east side you have to worry about
Where is Loaded Luxxx!?
Where they from in Harlem mook and rex
I don’t think hood is being used here in the older way is it? Bc Harlem is expensive. It’s a neighborhood but not hood as in busted.
I🤎 Harlem
I hope it’s a safe city with friendly people
😂
@@user-wu2er4zd1d what’s so funny?
@@rahmanmikaeelrahman7613 lots of friendly robbers and rapist in da hood.
@@rahmanmikaeelrahman7613Involuntary humor...
Hood? Give me a break. Stayed there in 71' with a lady friend. Most interesting time of my life. Today it's like a suburb.
I agree. Just going by the ancient reputation. Some people still think it stands as it did in the 70’s. Thanks for sharing and thanks for watching!
Go to polo grounds lol
Nothing says hood like a Chase bank and Old Navy lol
Me looking for Axel and them three men: 🤔☁️➡️👨🦯🍑🚶🏿🚶🏿🚶🏿

Teng Dragon use to be Wo-Hop
Not anywhere in NYC can be considered "hood" anymore when very few can afford to live there. Where's the homeless encampments? I don't see one. Any ideas?
On the train.
No "Homeless Encampments" in NYC... You want those? Cross the Hudson, pick up I - 80, and take that West 'til there's no more of it - clear to San Francisco!
@@Crazcompart How do they manage that?
@@joygeegemini9241 - Simple, you just LEAVE! The politicians (ditto law enforcement) in NYC don't tolerate, nor encourage any of that homeless squatters garbage! Too many landlords and property owners with far too much to lose and far, FAR too much political pull!
@@joygeegemini9241 read the book Mole people...he'll just utilize RUclips and watch a video homeless in NY.
The snitches paradise 😂😂😂😂
Ha ha. Please expand. Alpo?
Whole Foods market in Harlem? I’m sorry but who in Harlem can afford a Whole Foods…
Top 3 most dangerous nyc neighborhoods
What would you say are the top 3? In what order? Thanks for watching.
@@ghettomerica south Bronx, Brownsville, Harlem(east and west included)
@@mikej6624 I think that’s fair. Can add East New York along with Brownsville.
How many black poeple😮
No place liek the town... but maaannn gentrification is a mothafukka
For sure. Nyc leads the charge in the tri state as far as that goes.
I like Harlem
So do I
@@ghettomericaHarlem is controlled by ✡️😈👹💯🇮🇱👀🐀💰🐒🦍🦧🐵🤣
We humans built a city like this huge, and complex, and still don't know how the pyramids was built.Really?!
The stones were cast at the destination (compare the building style of the Egyptians, hence the location on the water and the sand, cement pits). Therefore: there was never a transport of stones.
@@1q2w3e4r5t6zismHmm yeah... and how did they transport the huge carved stones to the top with only muscular force?
@@jimbotron70Don't you get it? The stones were stirred together directly at their target location - similar to a cement foundation. So all you had to do was transport the sand and the water up.
@@1q2w3e4r5t6zism If you really think they made the huge stones by just mixing sand with water like kids at the beach you're lost, in any sense.
That's it! Incidentally, this is also how the other houses of the Egyptians were built. Inform yourself!@@jimbotron70
Far far better than Phillie......
Kensington philly looks much worse...
it aint the hood anymore!
It is
Gentrification... $$$$$$$.
#3 most dangerous area of NYC. That said, on Lenox Ave, there are some good restaurants. best time to visit is Sundays. get out before dark. BTW: some of the architecture is beautiful. The gentrification that started in the early 1980's has stopped.
I lived ontop.of that liquor store on 153rd for almost 10 years. I dodged bullets one night, I saw at 3pm on a Sunday afternoon outside that laundromat on 154..a guy leaking to death after getting popped sitting in his car...kids were playing outside the laundromat... Crack and prostitution RUN that hood...once a week gunshots...I just moved out last year...so those of you that think NY got soft it's funny when I see the transplants, tourist, and yuppies walking around in disbelief....shit is still very loud on the zoo block up by the polo grounds
I've seen worse - but it IS daytime...
