Driving thru Flint Michigan hoods

Welcome Back stranger.

You covered a lot of territory. Even back in the day. North, St Johns and Industrial area was the roughest of the rough. The whole town looks haunted now.

It’s sad honestly cause when I was researching this place it seems like it was a decent area not that long ago up until the water crises but I could be wrong.

@@BMORETALKSMITCHIE In the sixties, Flint had the highest standard of living in the country. The mid 60's riots changed every city in America. The whites all moved out to surrounding towns. Flint went from over 200,000 to less than 75,000 today. The entire school district graduates less than 280 students city wide. The water deal was all on Mayor Walling and the entire city council. They cut off the water flow from Detroit that they always had and pumped from the Flint River instead to pad their pockets. That water was corrosive and affected the old house pipes in the older sections of town in a bad way. Democrats have run and robbed Flint for decades.

@@BMORETALKSMITCHIE although when we went to I believe it was called Patterson Park in Baltimore I thought we were gonna get our butts kicked. My friend David lived by it in an area called highland town or something like that.

[@BMORETALKSMITCHIE]

Highland town is 50/50 but really any area is what you make of it , but besides that flint is deff rough
