That's what happens when you let your city just sprawl out and property prices decline, no money to actually fix your roads regularly, it's becoming the norm in a lot of America tbh.

[@Shon101Jack]

The neighborhoods in the City of Pittsburgh went downhill due to the loss of mill jobs. I have lived in Pittsburgh all my life, and I have watched a lot of transformation on different levels. Gentrification is a huge thing happening in the City of Pittsburgh, soon the neighborhoods featured in this video will be "revitalized" and will be nearly impossible for the original community members to afford live there. You see this happening on East Liberty now. Give it a few more years and go back there and video the neighborhood and see the change.

hardly a ghetto as we know most of the lots are empty, houses long gone but clean streets.

[@patfischer1590]

Looks like The Hill, Wilkinsburg, Homewood, Lincoln and then Larimer. Man my city looks depressing. Those potholes are crazy tho, huh? Lol

[@joestewart8914]

I am seeing lots of poor old places, empty lots and run-down businesses but I am not seeing the piles of stinking trash and garbage and overall wanton filthiness that I see in other cities Charlie has gone to.

[@patfischer1590]

Big Timer you probably live in the south hills

[@joestewart8914]

Looks like Pat is wrong. Maybe doesn't know shit.

[@jasonchristian5204]

Garfield ,Homewood, lil italy....

[@ugotzo33]

nah he was right...that was the exact order of hoods he was in. The Hill, and now Larimer has really started to clean up. But he really didn't go through the bad parts of the hill. Homewood is the bottom, and has long been a death trap.

[@c.joyceb.8991]

"Slum landlords" are the problem in these neighborhoods and the areas Mayors, City Council, etc.... Homes are sold to slum landlords, over and over again, he rents the houses, he doesn't check his houses, they become eyesores in the neighborhood, and the Mayor, etc. "don't" do anything to keep this from happening. Then the landlord doesn't pay his property taxes For Years! (I have no idea how this happens). So how will this slum neighborhood pay there necessary bills? They can't! Schools close, businesses close.... People start selling their homes, and the slum landlords buys the homes, and rents them out, and continues making the neighborhood worse. These City Mayors, Council, etc... who are Voted in, "over and over again" and are doing nothing to Prevent a neighborhood becoming a slum! Oh well, it is what it is, Government doesn't care, to prevent this from happening...slum neighborhoods.

shit man I used to live over there, back 15 years ago.. brings back some harsh memories.. shittsburgh still looks exactly the same too...

[@misha2197]

Go fuck yourself!

[@JUNIATABURGH]

These are NOT ghettos ! They are old neighborhoods with old houses that are a bit run down, but no graffiti or trash anywhere on here. Check out some of the cities like Detroit, Chicago, NYC to see real ghettos. Perhaps some of the projects around Pittsburgh are trashed. These cities I mentioned WISH their ghettos looked like the ones on here !

I'm afraid to go to Detroit and Chicago.

Pittsburgh is less segregated than most cities. instead of a black side and a white side, there's black pockets/areas and white pockets.

so is Pittsburgh safe? or is it like Camden?

It's not safe but it's not as bad as Camden pol

Pittsburgh is beautiful man. You wanna see hood man come to Toronto. Old doesn't mean ghetto necessarily. Pittsburgh looks like a small town charm in a city. Need to head on out over there...only 4 hours away.

[@robminmonaca]

I’m not from the city but live outside of Pittsburgh. However I can say that were are not like Detroit and the hoods don’t see to have blocks full of abandoned falling apart homes . Not to say that there are many abandoned homes just there seems not to be a bunch of them as in Detroit and look somewhat fine in Pittsburgh.

[@21xenomorph]

rob mush most empty houses also still have hot water tanks and furnaces still in them.in detroit those are stolen right away.

I'm not sure how old you are, but the North Side was full of abandoned buildings until the mid two thousands. The bottom of California Avenue was like the movie Escape From New York.

[@jacksonmay153]

not nearly as bad as some of the areas from the south

[@Cindy-cj8bw]

How sad. The areas you list as ghettos, used to be thriving, beautiful, and safe places to live and raise a family back in the day. My parents immigrated to America from Europe, and lived in Homewood during the 30's and 40's. They said due to all the shops in the area, you rarely had to go to downtown Pgh, and they never locked their doors at night. Try that now! SMH

[@swtv1754]

I like the architecture of the older buildings. Looks like a neighborhood that will one day be gentrified.

[@douglaskasten4630]

swtv1754 parts of the east end already are, but Chad & Meghan will never get here, it's been the 'hood for 30+ years
