Inside OTARA Ghetto! | Auckland's largest projects | Reaction

[@deecee9699]

Lots of love for that teen space in Otara, its really needed in every area to help our kids express and find themselves.

[@gutterslug276]

the housing is quite decent compared to other places, im from nz and i guess its because its not as densley populated as these other hoods you would find it UK/USA etc. as we don't need these bigs project buildings as much, so theres just mouldy 100 year old wood houses but they aren't bad in the grand scheme of things. Its more the culture around NZ in these areas, not the housing which makes it rough, there is really really high density gang population even though it might not look it. these houses are the cheapest to rent on the market and are still like $800+ per week for a 3 bedroom place. Good video bro! enjoyed watchin it. love from NZ

[@PashaOCE]

love for the constant nz reactions, youre one of the only ones thats doing it for us

Next door to the Otara Shopping center is the Manukau Technical Institute which teaches the trades and other careers. The main sport is Rugby League not Rugby Union. The State housing (public housing) is older built in the late 1950s and 60s. The population back then was a mix of European, Maori and Pacific Islanders. People worked in the factories close by. Auckland is about 1.5 million. The Government has been building new State Housing and it is a mix of apartments, single housing and townhouses. My American family were amazed at the new builds. The gangs and drugs started to take over in the late 1970s Black Power or Mongrel Mob.

[@thewalkingquadriplegic7857]

Sisters underground from Otara have a single called In the Neighborhood. Actually the album Proud is Otara made. Its 1990s and i still listen to it.

[@bp792]

Rollerdoors came out like late 70s or early 80s from memory and I don’t remember ramraids just breakins and lots of street gangs and fights at night. And things like Farmers department store burning down and people running in helping themselves to early Christmas presents. There was a guy carrying a fridge on his back

[@baileenbaby1]

man I love watching your videos fr. Live in Ōtara and most of these bike life people are cook island there’s pretty much a doco about the cook island gang a well

[@thecraigyo43]

Remember NZ only has 5million whole country per capita our murders and crime rate is on top Auckland least safest city in australasia we have shootings stabbings agg Roberrys daily imagine if we had capacity of Australia we would be next level publicity makes NZ look safe to carry on our tourism

[@deecee9699]

Those are public toilets, you will see them all over the place, it has a sink and a toilet, they are not small houses

[@tydollasign8718]

The tree from the movie was cut down. One of the family members told me they paid them a lot of money to move out for some months during the filming.

[@JohnnyPaulTutaki]

I went to school in Otara in the 1980's briefly when I was 10. The first day there I had to fight some random dude (kid) who came at me for no reason. I took him down with one punch and nobody gave me any problems after that.

[@familyfirst5274]

'bro shut up you got the same mic as me man shut up' i was just thinking of that when it popped up 🤣🤣🤣

[@zealantis]

nah this is a normal day g, usually you'd see way more this video could have been way shorter

[@ramsauceramsey8154]

South Auckland in general is actually clean now days gone of the days where most corners had rubbish all year round and gangs of dogs roming the street attacking motherfuckers now that's the South Auckland I grew up in 80s and 90s. Thanks to the Labour Party and people like Len Brown South Auckland got cleaned up with a few upgrades

[@DefKiller90]

Yes your right south Auckland is clean cause the council cleaned it up back in the 80s and 90s use to be rubbish everywhere and trolly dumped in the park or alleyway even rubbish also tagging everywhere looked like a South Los Angeles or the Bronx back in the day

[@ramsauceramsey8154]

@DefKiller90 Yo I was part of the big clean up from on the Southern motorway clearing the motorway painting over taggings and plainting tree with blunt machetes and shovels lol it was basically a huge clean up for the APEC meeting heald in Auckland back in 99 I remember that shit too clear when they closed the motorway for the world learners to drive and every bridge had cops snipers and I'm sure FBI agents to shit was like movie

[@TheHUNTER274]

Otara born and bred. .4th gen myself. . .Pauly and Phil Fuemana are legends solidified. .used to always rock over to thier house down Velvet Cres to shoot some pool. . .it ain't how it used to be regarding the constant gang fights in the yiwn center the main park and elsewhere. .love my neighborhood it's not as bad now and that's a good thing. .well. .I don't believe it was ever bad. .its just?. .what laid beneath iykyk. . .

[@YouTubesFan]

The tin can house you were asking about are public toilets. Public housing today looks nice because the system would repaint refurnish all the homes over time.

[@phillgreen8792]

The otara shopping centre was nicked name the chopping centre from when in the early 90s at the Saturday morning market a guy got his head chopped off in front of 100s of people surprised that story didn’t get told in this but a lot has happened on the daily in this hood

[@jeromel4870]

It’s tin city cuz that’s where you score tinies from

[@DefKiller90]

Otara one are the biggest public housing in nz

[@thecraigyo43]

Those bars inside fairy's round counter isn't from ram raids it's from the aggravated robberys few shop owners been stabbed shot beaten and killed lately hence why most our shops are surrounded in bars or glass etc

[@alimoe1970]

Otara is not a ghetto, it used to be messy but its not a ghetto. Public housing in NZ gets well looked after here. The government pay for any repairs or remodelling that is needed.
