Camden - New Jersey - 4K Downtown Drive

[@user-ro6bi5mu8l]

New Jersey was a nice place to grow up as a kid.Times are a change 'in.

[@carlos64030]

I used to live in Camden for a short time back in the 80s. It's amazing to see how much North Camden has changed in the downtown area near the waterfront and Rutgers. South Camden isn't looking so good, though. Hopefully they'll focus on other areas of Camden as well and do it without displacing the residents there. Camden wasn't that bad back in the 80s and I had fun roaming the city on my bike or just walking around. I kinda miss it to be honest.

[@sunfish7021]

Hood love.

[@sethfranklin8079]

Wow it honestly looks like the city is genuinely coming around as of lately!

[@bjt81366]

No just downtown. It has nothing to do with the people who live in Camden. I am sure the people East of Cooper don't even venture down there. Why would they, the jobs down there require a degree.

[@morgantremble]

I’ve noticed that the sound quality has improved a lot in your more recent videos! I use them for background noise a lot so I appreciate it 😊

[@MileageMikeTravels]

Glad to hear. It's a challenge to keep things quiet while driving but I try to keep it improving.

[@mauricecarter5831]

Wow !!! Very Clean Streets !!!Camden is coming back lovely !!!;

[@clivehope8409]

And there's a city that is awesome Camden much love from Ireland ❤all they show you is all the rough parts . They never show this part

[@thebionicpig]

Really enjoy these type Street level vids...feels as though I was transported from my living room to right their!

[@commonsense5461]

Wayyy better drivers then anywhere in Florida

[@speedy423]

I know theres more to do, but the improvement from 25-30 years ago is remarkable to see.

[@williamthawley9251]

thank you, I did see hope for the city. the downtown section where walter rand tc is, nice, and rutgers all nice. now have to work on some of the rest of the town, I grew up in fairview, took music lessons in camden, went shopping at lits and pennys at christmas time. my grandparents lived off of broadway on liberty st. lots of memories, thanks.

[@waltglow6396]

I lived by the Shipyard in south Camden, moved out in 1969 after the family car was stolen, found in North Camden 3 days later stripped and burnt,I sure dont remember Broadway looking like a war zone,now retired and living in Eastern Tennessee Plateau 😢

[@s.morris4099]

Wow... don't recognize Camden anymore. With all the street names changed and all the empty lots. The only thing I remember is City Hall and the corner of 5th & Federal sts. Which by the way used to have the Parkade bldg and the old Food Fair bld. They finally figured out how to fix Camden... tear it all down and start over. Sad but true. 😢

[@julinalilly7439]

Awesome drive through Downtown Camden NJ

[@KM336]

My birth place 🙏🏻

[@chuckinhouston9952]

[@MileageMikeTravels]

Thanks for watching!

[@workingtaxpayer1201]

San Francisco, Chicago, Philadelphia, Los Angeles, Portland, Oregon… Should be so clean…

[@user-ro6bi5mu8l]

Went to the Aquarium. Awesome place to see.Too bad for the rest of the area.

[@donavanjohnson409]

Nice ride in Camden NJ

[@junito6094]

North Camden don’t look as bad as it used to too in the 80’s when I use to live there but south Camden still needs to improve that’s where I grew up in the south

[@bryvlogs6297]

Welcome to NJ!! Some of the bridges you may record on driving will have FLDOT sound

[@almiller8139]

Born there but moved away when I was a year old.

[@budmangt2]

I was born in 1951 in north Camden at (time) 19:18 on 729 Elm st My family and I live there the house was torn down now, then we moved (time) 20:10 to 718 N 7 st when I was 10 and we lived there until 1978 the house is still there it's the house with the white gates around it. the the red brick building on the corner was Sewell School I went from 1st grade to 6 grade at (time) 20:52 I went to Pyne Poynt it was a junior high school then 7th grade to 9th grade. Here is an old 8mm film my dad took of us living in those wonderful times as a child! at (time) 22:17 you can see 729 Elm st and how it looked back in 1959 The Williams Family 1959 kzbin.info/www/bejne/hJbSZpubd8Z5eqc

[@seyronabbott6001]

Darn.... I thought for sure the southern stretches of Broadway would have started to see serious infill by now😐 Admittedly, I don't get over to Camden that much but just imagine all those swaths of land adjacent to Broadway in the start of the vid filled in with some of those big ol' Philly Kensington-style 2-400+ unit apartment buildings they're just throwing up over here; all with ground floor commercial lining Broadway. Bringing everything that South Camden needs all in one fell swoop. Amenities along with huge density boosts.

[@wanderer6488]

10:52 I love this place!! Thanks for your uploading.

[@positively_broad_st3780]

It's a shame Camden is such a mess. Being directly across from Center City Philadelphia, it should be a great place to live with a fantastic view of the City of Brotherly Love; but alas...

[@jackfang58]

Philadelphia is far worse than Camden. You literally have roaming zombies in Kensington.

[@junito6094]

It looks much cleaner for sure unless it was cleaned up for this video 😅

[@thurnquinn5211]

Play I'm back in the 90s you didn't want to drive down Broadway it looks a lot nicer

[@melvinbrown4450]

I noticed in these video how aggressive up north drivers are. Even if you have the right away they will cross in your lane to get around a park car because you're being careful. Slow down for the firetruck, they speed around you.. I remember driving in Jersey, just got my license.LMAO I love Jersey 😂🤣❤️❤️

[@erictorow250]

Camden nj looks like moon base alpha😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮

[@user-ro6bi5mu8l]

It's a shame because a work crew with some quality employees could maintain the parks & streets making the residents a little more conscience of the way they treat the place.

[@Dav1205Firealarmsandelevators]

You finaly Made it! Can you Do I-295 To NJ 29?

[@MileageMikeTravels]

Yeah I've filmed most of 295 in the state.

[@roxannedaily7685]

I was planning on moving to Florida in particular the plantation area . Wondering if plantation was hit hard from the hurricane ?

[@tameikabrown]

Google Search It Online & Hopefully U’LL Get UR Answer

[@MileageMikeTravels]

Plantation is near Ft. Lauderdale (Miami Metro). They didn't really get hit from the hurricane.

[@stubbet73]

What about al the wiers in the air, is this India?

[@Rosethesicko]

do you plan on visiting every city in the continental US?

[@MileageMikeTravels]

Haha not all. There would never be enough time for that but I do hope to eventually hit all the most significant cities/towns in each state.

[@DanTheMan189]

Not a place you want to find yourself in

[@mercedesdesere5004]

I heard the same thing! Got an uncle who lives in Blackwood, NJ and we drove through Camden. He said, “we not getting out on this side of town. It’s too dangerous. We are gonna stay in the car.” we did get out and walk in the park that’s by the Ben Franklin bridge. That area was nice, because you can see Philadelphia from across the river. But yea, Camden got some rough edges 😅

[@NewbiusSupreme]

Yep, these rough structures make Camden, NJ look bad and not a good place to be seen in

[@jensmurkel915]

high criminal 🙈

[@TopBillinSports]

I want to move to Camden, and it has similarities to here in Baltimore, but only the rougher parts are shown. A lot of people think all of Baltimore looks like this, but there are plenty parts that are suburban and middle to upper-middle class. I need to find those parts or maybe it will have to be Cherry Hill or Pennsauken…
