Fredericksburg - Virginia - 4K Downtown Drive

[@noahpage7459]

Thank you for sharing this beautiful video of my home town. Makes me miss it dearly.

[@MileageMikeTravels]

It was my pleasure

[@joeydriskill8416]

hopefully you'll come back through and film Spotsylvania and Stafford too?

[@JejblessAnointed]

Always stop in Fredericksburg Va. Everytime we goes through Virginia. Beautiful area with very nice and welcoming people from my own experience. I haven't been in the downtown area looks interesting.

[@MileageMikeTravels]

Same here. Always stop in that area of the I-95 exit on the way to NoVa and DC.

[@jessicanorton314]

You should see Downtown in the summer!! This was a cold dreary day. I work off Caroline street and its August 2022 and there are TONS of people out and about. I swear this town is way prettier than this video!!. The bridge is now finished and so is the park. We need a redo!!!!

[@MileageMikeTravels]

Heading up 95 again soon. Hopefully I'll have time to stop by.

[@ColonizerChan]

Comfy area to visit. Good home, but goodness downtown was always more expensive than it's worth.

[@Luckylife9993]

Such a nice place , decent journey I didn't find even 30 people on streets... if it is india you might cross atleast 3000 people on streets during this period ,,,I love both countries.

[@lowandslow7143]

I live here!! We love it here. It used to be one of the best keeper secrets. Not anymore, more and more people from DC are moving here.. 😢😢

[@allikhaur]

How safe is the area, including downtown?

[@lowandslow7143]

@@allikhaur it's very safe here, most crimes happen towards Woodbridge, Fairfax, DC. Fredricksburg is congested. More and more people buying houses here in Fredricksburg.

[@ColonizerChan]

Real. Lots of carpetbaggers.

[@ColonizerChan]

​@@allikhaur Safe. Just don't be out too late at night. Most folks don't really mess with people that much

[@terranceaddison4599]

​@@ColonizerChan the cops can be a lil pushy late at night as well...

[@yaboi6079]

Just avoid bragg hill and hall hill apartments around there and you should be fine at night

[@mistervacation23]

At this Christmas season, when the good fairies are in the air, we can hardly wonder at the sudden miracle .that has shown us the Fredericksburg affair in its true light .and given us occasion for national joy instead of national sorrow.

[@cynthiacatherinehoward8615]

Fredericksburg Virginia is the worse place I have ever lived. The traffic is a nightmare here along with loud drag racing up and down route 3 all night long. The majority of people here are rude and disrespectful. Things have really gotten worse since we moved here in 2005. Time to get the hell out before it gets worse..

[@David-fi3oo]

My bad

[@allikhaur]

Wow, really?! Yikes. And I was considering the area. I definitely cannot do rudeness, it's Half of why I'm leaving my current area. Noise, I can manage.

[@allikhaur]

In what ways are they rude?

[@1uhot426]

Well, its fine for me n my property value has increased 200,000 in 2 years. I cant complain lol the people are nice to me for the most part as well, i feel u on the traffic though lol

[@arc8216]

The surrounding suburbs are the nice place. but yeah east of 95 has worse traffic than even some of the bigger cities in Virginia.

[@dcbornmike]

Thanks for posting. Fredericksburg VA is really a nice little town ...so much American history ... both Colonial and Civil War history. Please consider doing another video showing how beautiful the town is in the Spring

[@allikhaur]

What's the Average for weather there during the month of December? Any snow regularly then?

[@dcbornmike]

@@allikhaur Hi. You certainly can get snow in Dec in Fredericksburg ... the bigger snows are in Jan and Feb. You can expect a lot of snow some Winters

[@MPB059]

I'm from 30 minutes from this independent city! Always loved Downtown!

[@MileageMikeTravels]

I never went there until this trip, always passed by on I-95. It's impressive, looks like a lot of history there.

[@austinbalkcum7305]

Got my first speeding ticket going under that bridge in the beginning

[@christinah.8504]

I've lived here for over 20 years and always thought downtown looked so run down and sketchy. It still does. I never shop there.

[@ireece]

Nice Virginia

[@JhonnyBoi]

Fredericksburg is basically the new Woodbridge.

[@jgator6694]

Hardly. Woodbridge has no downtown 40 block historic downtown with bike paths, coffee shops and home grown restaurants. No comparison.

[@jgator6694]

Beautiful 40 block historic districts, LOTS of awesome, homegrown restaurants, coffee shops and bars, a gorgeous college campus, swimming, kayaking in a gorgeous river that runs through downtown, bike paths everywhere, awesome farmers market in our downtown gorgeous park, events and concerts, gorgeous architecture, friendly people, train station with access to Charlottesville, Richmond or DC. 30 min drive to beaches of eastern shore. And 5 minutes to every store and restaurant imaginable in Central Park and town center. You can walk anywhere. Woodbridge is a giant suburb - you need a car to go anywhere and anywhere in Woodbridge is a bunch of ugly strip malls

[@JhonnyBoi]

@@jgator6694 lol you speak of Fredericksburg like it’s some gem. It’s just another suburb like Woodbridge.

[@jgator6694]

@@JhonnyBoi sorry it is not “just another suburb”. Woodbridge used to be woods. It was developed with houses and strip malls. Period. Fredericksburg is a HISTORIC CITY that was established in 1728. Some of the buildings in the city are that old. The city of Fredericksburg has suburbs...some may be similar to Woodbridge. But the CITY itself is what I am speaking of. It is a 40 block downtown and could be compared to downtown Charlottesville, or downtown Winchester or such. There is NOTHING in Woodbridge that is comparable. Maybe you have never been to downtown Fredericksburg which is why you speak without knowledge.

[@dcbornmike]

@@JhonnyBoi sad you actually feel that way .... Do you know your history?????

[@modulo3664]

We always stop by Red Dragon and Adventure breweries!

[@WARDOGOD-2]

that’s home right there

[@Townsendcat2]

As a Virginia resident Fredericksburg is no place to visit in my opinion yes it has history but it is in the middle of the shittiest part of town near the beach!! You’re better off just going to Jamestown! Or if you’re smart you’ll just head to the mountains where it’s beautiful and you don’t have to worry about people robbing you like you do in Fredericksburg!! And I know because I’m a Virginia resident for my whole life even though I’ve been all over the country working!!!

[@scriptorium-in-candelight]

The rebels to the British ...It's difficult to believe that during the years of slavery. People they lived here colonized by the British, yet their was a war on the east coast in towns just like these. A war against the British which would make them sort of rebels to the common lifestyle here. They had a war around Fredericksburg can you imagine it looking down the street. I have to go through alot of information to piece it together houses, people, landmarks, colonization, Army, slavery, everyday life. WOW !!

[@ColonizerChan]

Tbh the battle of Fredericksburg leveled most of the city, and what wasn't nailed down was looted by soldiers from the union mainly. Layout is the same. But if you look at old photos, whole place was leveled. There is a small building at the end of William St. That might be period correct but idk tbh

[@george5120]

Too bad you omitted Mary Washington University. But the rest was great. It lets me relive memories from the Seventies.

[@ethansteele5246]

Did anyone see a person on a skateboard in this vid?

[@witmoncure2996]

1:50 moncure street (my last name)

[@brockcureton2989]

Beautiful city

[@jaxmanodor773]

I pass Thier manny Time to work

[@Jj9999]

beautiful little town, but these wooden pillars with electric wires spoil the whole view ... it would be much better to bury the wires underground. Those streets where there are no pillars are very beautiful.

[@ma1375]

If its traffic filled nova with all spanish speaking people i wont travel or live there. Not racist. Its the traffic bs i fear
