GRAND RAPIDS MICHICAN HOODS

[@PaulLorenzini-ny2yw]

that looks like a really nice city to me, very nice, well kept, the people have pride and take care of their stuff mostly, I like it. thanks for the tour!

[@Just1Spirit]

I’m from Grand Rapids it is a beautiful city this is the hood area but as you see it’s well maintained

[@orionwarren4244]

My thoughts exactly. And you know the overall morale of the residents is much higher than blight blasted cities like Detroit, Baltimore, Philadelphia, LA, etc...

[@CaptainGinyu]

most of the iconic early 90s hoods actually don't look bad, if you watch videos of people driving thru Compton and Inglewood they look pretty nice too

[@tbuddy3005]

Don't mind the high number of homicides that come from this nice looking hood, nothing to see here.

Facts

[@jasonpitts8395]

Years ago I flew to Detroit and drove past empty strip malls, vacant houses, etc. It was nothing but miles and miles of nothing. How does such a once great and vibrant city, a powerhouse auto maker city, turn into what it is today?

[@ClarissaPacker]

I grew up on the south side Grand Rapids Metro politan area between 131 division 44th & 54th 41 years & a lot has changed since the 80s yes im old enough to remember when the amway grand hotel was the tallest building in the city & lucky enough to have riden the monorail at herpelsymers (ill never be able to spell that name right) which sadly is now the 🚓 station.

[@chilldon26]

It’s much nicer than Detroit although Downtown Detroit has come a long way in the last 10 years

[@NoreagaMan]

Not really much to see as far as "hoods". Grand rapids is probably the cleanest larger city in the state. There's some really grimey parts you missed but not much of them at all. Was much more hoods back in the early 00's but gentrification has been going really strong for a while now.

[@Raqqqqq]

Yeah no that goes to Ann arbor

[@oleedgibbon8007]

I used to work for WOOD TV. You didn't go to the worst parts. GR hood isn't as bad as some cities its size, but it definitely has its elements; believe me, I got sent to them plenty. But overall, it's a pretty well kept city. Last year I worked there, Kalamazoo actually had more homicides despite being a third the size.

[@fbgbreezy419]

Crime rate steadily increasing at least like 4-5 separate shootings a day not as much homicides as shootings

[@kibblenbits]

I was born, raised and worked in GR for over 40 years. In the last 15 years or so, crime has gotten worse in the neighborhood being shown, because of people moving in from the Detroit/Flint area's. There are still quite a few nice area's in the city, which haven't been affected, yet. I retired and moved to my rural Northern Michigan acreage, where crime is almost nonexistent. Some of the worst crime area's in GR, to name a few, are called: The Black Hills, Burton Heights, South East Community, Roosevelt Park, and West Grand.
