ghost town

Nice, Thanks for sharing.😃

Here from all the bodycam footage lol, such a normal looking city for somewhere that’s got so many…interesting characters 😂

I use to live there in Sparta and went to Sparta junior high

That's my alma mater!!!

Super weird seeing my bike in a video, but also strangely cool 😀👍

The birds would love it

2:05 Ah yes I remember that place

Nice small Town, i love

I live there

Always wanted to see that town very nice thank you

Hey nice video thanks for sharing, can you make one of Paris Illinois? I may move there next year

It's Beautiful. I could live there easy. Just me and my dog. Clean, relaxed looking and peaceful. Thanks for sharing!😀😅

Hi . I’m thinking of taking an RN post there , I’m from Africa , is this place a mix of races or dominately white people ?

😂

Nature has given America so many beautiful places and the art of preserving them is very good in Americans. I am Indian and I love America as much as India.❤

1:01 *turns right during the no turn on red*😂

wonderful video!

Look at these gorgeous houses. Classic midwest America. So much potential. There is no reason in the world this could not be a nice neighborhood, except the community has to want it to be.

👍👍👍👍👍

The church is the temple of the Community of Christ (formerly known as the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints)

Now getting near my hometown, Overton 😂

Mad Greek Cafe!

Thanks for getting off at Zyzzx. I always pass this place n hurriedly drive to Barstow for lunch or dinner.

The LDS church is everywhere

I had gotten a traffic citation here lol😅

My sister lives here😂

Primm 😂

Gosh! This is near my hometown 😂👏 Actually my hometown is Overton in Moapa Valley on the other side of I-15. How did you find this place lol

Hi! It was a pleasure meeting you!

If you ever get to Malden Missouri please tell me. My mother gave piano lessons there. We went to school there (long time ago). Hamburgers were 6 for 1 dollar (I mean a long time ago). Thank you.

@jeffs 869 a lot of small towns are doing very well.

I hardly don't see people walking

I miss living in Joplin i had fun there

Places i wont walk during day so rough and dangerous south Philly meets at north philly, part of Pittsburgh pa, orlando fl, Memphis tn, south and west Chicago,

One of the most dangerous cities in America. Google it.

Love the content, rolling through towns and cities, but honestly why are most of these places devoid of life. Never see kids on the streets, people strolling along through the towns, folks in their gardens, just desertion. Everywhere you look, nobody.

What kind of camera is this? It’s very nice.

Não parece uma cidade agradável de se viver.

Now we see what a city looks like when Democrats are the only ones on the city council. Damn shame.

I don't know what everyone is on about. It's beautiful!

Where are the people?

I've never been there, but I've read about it. It looks like the former mayor was really competent, and that can make a difference. He also spearheaded roundabouts (and some of them required 200+ pages of environmental studies before they could be built). The architecture is also nice - instead of silly modernist buildings, there's sort of a federalist style, and that makes the city look nice. Nice architecture was sort of enforced by the city as well - it wasn't obligatory, but was nudged through tax credits and such. In the two dense areas, they've put parking underground to achieve density and walkability. Having competent leadership is really important. And a leadership with a vision. Portsmouth, New Hampshire sort of has similar vibes - brick sidewalks, older style buildings, better architecture (but no roundabouts really).

Really nice, quaint, clean town. Right next door to Southern Illinois Univ. Nice big houses on big lots. I wouldn't mind living here if the taxes weren't so high. If I lived here I would go to all the home games at Southern Illinois.

Where is the skid row here in vegas?

Thanks for another video clip. I went to this town about 5 years ago and I saw many people who were walking or hanging around the circle. Somehow there were very few people in this video clip. There is a very good restaurant called 20’s hideout. Check it out if you still in the area. Have a great time.

I went there in July 2010 to play in the pro tennis tournament Being from the South it was strange to see the Walmart run down not even a Supercenter and a big union strike downtown. Walmart is my Alabama towns biggest employee and the union is dead here. No union jobs in the whole town except for the educators and a few electricians and welders. The people were real nice. One end of town, the Western side had a couple of parks and schools just real nice. The other end smelled bad. That's where all the plants were but when you drive through there, Lake Decatur was pretty. Their was a lot of jet skiers and some of fishing 🎣 tournament was going. It is stucka not in the past. But the Decatur Conference Center was real nice and up to date where I played was real good for us tennis players. They treated us like kings. They lost their sponsor for the tournament in 2023. But Sufjan Stevens wrote a song about this town.

Don’t move to Oklahoma City. Not that it’s bad. The surrounding towns are getting over populated since there’s too many people moving here. And none of the locals really like it. And we don’t really want to be more overpopulated with out of state people moving in. Fix your state or go somewhere that’s not Oklahoma. I’ve heard that Nevada and Canada are nice.
