As a Barcelonian I would not say el Raval is the most dangerous hoods in the city. It just turns out it is located in the city center, close to the tourisc area and that why it has became more popular. But hoods like La Mina has always been far more dangerous

@@annapedrola5813 I don't think anyone there would want to mess with Spanian, they are more likely to be intimidated by him based on his looks, they would assume he is someone involved with a certain group you don't wanna fk around with, bad things happen when certain tourists who lack environmental awareness would cross those alleys while carrying a bunch of stuff that would attract the type of people you don't wanna meet.

Spanian, I liked this episode - much like most people, I'm sure. I think you should get an interpreter and head to areas like this and try to talk to the locals in the hood. People watch you because you’ve lived this life, if you could connect with the hoods you’re going through it would be much deeper… also you might be able to get an invite into the locals houses and hear their stories. Keep up the good work man.

His video tours of Darwin and Alice Springs were eye openers. If spanian doesn't speak the language and no one knows who he is. Then he would have to pay a fixer.

Completly agree beacause it’s not what you see in this video. In the good flats the rents are expensive, in the bad one cheap. In that hood cultures are very mixed. But Raval is not that dangerous if you are smart, but if you go here to visit, don’t enter to raval at night, and don’t go with all your jewlery. Barcelona is very besutifull, it has beach and mountain, and whatever you want. Be clean, don’t be loud, and try typical catalan food, as fricandó, escudella, caragols, and more, don’t pick the rambla’s restaurants, because it are expensive, and food it’s very bad.

El Raval is seedy and a bit rough in some parts with some crime, but nowhere near as bad as he makes it out to be. It's a really characterful "barrio" (not "hood") and mostly safe to walk around during the day. I lived there for 15 years and never had any problems, even walking home late at night as so many people were about. You have to keep your wits about you and take care of your belongings, the same as in many parts of Barcelona where tourists are a target for thieves. And there are drug dealers and prostitutes, but they leave you alone if you don't bother them. In this video it was clearly filmed when most shops were shut so there aren't so many people going about their daily business. Despite the outside appearance of buildings and narrow streets, many flats have been done up - you just have to look on a property website to see how nice some of them are. I lived in a flat on fourth floor with a narrow, shabby staircase and no lift, but once inside the flat it was lovely and light. I was less keen on being serenaded by Filipino neighbours on their karaoke every weekend though :) It's interesting to revisit the area in the video, despite the many adverts which interrupt it.

Not having seen you around there before. Thinking you may be from some other groups, and stepping on turf you shouldn't. That thinking you did there, is what I mean when saying you know the universal language of the streets. The do's and don'ts you only get by being in or around such environments. Keep on grindin' bro!

Very interesting video. I've lived in Raval for 5 years and sure it is rough, there are a lot of drugs and some shit happening, but the rough charm is something unique that attracts tourists and foreigners moving to Barcelona. It's pretty gentrified, used to be way worse from my understanding. Many of these streets that looks sketchy are housing tons of hipster kids, skaters and people with decent amount of money. It's grim, but personally I loved it and never felt unsafe, although you always have to keep your guard up still. They test you and if you act like a tourist, you are an easy target.

I lived and worked in el Raval 1996 to 1998, the best time of my life. I am Catalan living in Oz now. Back then i was a Registed Nurse carrying A$10.000 worth of morphine and other meds for palliative care use around the neighborhood. Us nurses didn't wear uniforms, but when we walked those streets people would give us way. It was like the parting of the Red Sea: everyone knew who we were and no one was stupid enough to mug us, we helped the elderly, the sick and dying, the AIDS patients, the tuberculosis ones... there is honor amongst thieves, and one does not shit in one,s own nest. I got my 1st tattoo in Carrer Nou de la Rambla. I still visit my friends in several bars in there and I miss the piss smelling narrow streets with everything I,ve got. My 1st partner lived and died in el Raval from heroin overdose (suicide, intentional). A part of my heart is in el Raval forever.

@@djbolt178 Not even that. I lived there, I was a DJ before Covid and I'd DJ around that area. I often had to go trough there alone at 5 AM when I couldn't get a taxi or metro. I would walk with DJ gear on me and it was quite visible I was carrying equipment. I did this for 4 years, never got robbed or threatened, never saw a knife. I saw some agression one time, it was a Columbian guy cussing me out because I had a NASA jacket with the American flag. The way I resolved the dispute is I let the guy put some tape over the flag and he cooled down after. I don't know why he was carrying tape. But, most of the people there are just junkies. The only reason people fear it is because people make each other paranoid with fake stories.

I lived in Spain for 6 years, 2 hours north of Madrid. Bought an old flat in a working class suburb, which reminds me a lot of where you were walking around. Back in Oz now, but man, you're giving me a walk down memory lane. You were wanting to get in to the hallway of those flats. Usually the doors are well secured because of squatters. Once they get access to your apartment it is very difficult to get rid of them. Really,nothing much to see. Mailboxes, stairs and an elevator .

@BrendanBFree not sure where you're from, but from my experience in Spain, squatters were very hard to get rid of. It could literally take years as there are certain aspects of the law on their side. I saw reports of people who had a mortgage on a flat with squatters, and they had to keep paying the mortgage or risk losing the flat. And if you tried to physically harm them, you ran the risk of ending up in jail yourself.
