The RICHEST, Most Posh, NEIGHBORHOODS in JAMAICA.

[@nataliebarrett573]

This video drew out so many negative people. I am happy for the persons who are able to afford this lifestyle.

[@icymint1]

Some people see their dream house, while others see the same house as a teardown. A large pile of blocks is what many of those houses look like from the outside and on the inside its a collection of poorly constructed small boxes. Then there are so many more issues in Ja like Infrastructure: power, water, road, transportation...then how about the big one, yes security. No matter where in Jamaica you live, there is no security. Anybody who spend extended periods in Ja and worldwide can tell you the same thing. Plus many of those houses are renting rooms on Airbnb. What rich people rent rooms in there house?

[@nikitadewar3704]

Marlon Christie easier said than done my dear. It's not like that anymore. It was waaaay easier back in the days but now everything is expensive. It's easier to work overseas and build ur houses here. I mean u can live here and do it but it's going to be 20x harder. That's just the awful reality

[@JoyHarrison]

Marlon Christie Of course, money is in Jamaica but it is concentrated in the hands of a very few. Most Jamaicans are not middle class and that's a reason why it's a Third World country. It's extremely hard to move from being poor to even middle class much less the upper class. If you're born poor in Jamaica, you can't even afford to go to college these days to even study to be a teacher or nurse. If you're not blessed with some super talent like Usain Bolt and Chris Gayle, you will stay poor in Jamaica once you're born poor.

[@JoyHarrison]

legba eshu You're welcome. I know how many Jamaicans like to pretend as if it's paradise. That's when I have to ask them, why did you migrate if it were so great there? I'm a realist. It's very hard economically for the average Jamaican. I won't even get started on how the crime rate is another big turn off.

[@JoyHarrison]

legba eshu I know someone who witnessed the shooting of her boss, a business owner in Jamaica. Gunmen just walked into his store and killed him. It was alleged that he was killed because he wouldn't pay them the extortion money. His family fled Jamaica after his murder.

[@dakg8034]

Back in the 1970s after Manley introduced the political ideology of Democratic Socialism, many wealthy and upper class Jamaicans who feared the country was going communism, sold many of these houses for less than market value and fled to North America and the UK. Those who remained and could afford to, wisely bought up these houses. This flight of capital presented golden opportunities for people in the middle class as well because they were now able to own luxury homes for far less than market value.....And I mean far less. Today these properties have appreciated tremendously in value. The thing to note is, these areas never lost their prestige. And as a side note, Some of the neighborhoods you mentioned have been historically known for their affluent residents, including Tryall which was home to Lady Churchill, a relative of Sir Winston Churchill. Then there was John Rollins, the multi billionaire who owned vast properties in the Rose Hall area. Rose Hall is the larger community that incorporates the neighborhoods of Ironshore, Spring Farm and Coral Gardens. Teach Dem, I have been around long now my friend. LoL.

Even with what appears a struggle to read and speak eloquently,as well as without grave deficit, you are to be commended. Your effort to try is admirable.Additionally prizing a topic, whereby exhibitions of lavish living is featured. Welcoming. Do advise your listeners, however,though these residences are sprawling with architectural structures etc, stress residents work, save and invest to accomplish their dreams. Stress means to growing as a person to devise a way in which to capitalize upon such. Though there are schools, there are also ways in which to be a self starter and motivator. Great presentation. Continue to practice you will do fine. Your contribution am sure is appreciated world wide, representing the island as one of many with easy on the eyes sights, lifestyle and constructed dwellings.

Jamaica is just an amazing and memorable country, but, I honestly feel like alot of the houses in Jamaica are way overpriced. Like very overpriced. The price you are paying for the house is not worth it. The houses look big but are actually small on the inside and barely have any backyard space, have SMALL few rooms, small bathrooms and the architecture is just not worth the price.Also, excluding Kingston, alot of the houses are in remote places, barely any neighbors and with shopping centres a long drive away (Treasure Beach). Just a little something to add lol

[@olittodunkley3511]

I guss so, if you are refering to Treasure Beach. Definately, rural. Not like Kingston, Mandeville, Ocho Reous or Montego bay, just to name a few places with all the convenience colse by.

[@donblake9602]

Right now Teach Dem I can say the richest places in Montego Bay is White Witch of Rose Hall, Spring Farm & Palmyra. I have a friend that had 2 lot over White Witch maybe about quarter acre and you are looking on $800,000 usd to $1,000,000 for 1 piece of land only and the house not build as yet you also have to have maid quarter different and gardener and you can't build no little 3 or 4 bedroom over there or else you breach their contract. Houses over there after building can run up to 7 to 8 million usd. I use to think it was just the great house over there and golf course back in the days until my friend took me over there and realize this is where the richest of the richest lives in Mobay people can sleep with their door open over there security flood the compound. No wire run in the air everything under ground well organized and it's also the best golf course over there and the famous Great House of Annie Palmer

This video drew out so many negative people. I am happy for the persons who are able to afford this lifestyle. Is the playing field level? No! But you can start somewhere. The best place to start is with parents who are determined that their chn will not do what they did. They ensured education took paramount place in our lives. I have said it, my parents positioned me, now I am positioning my son. The mansion might miss the two previous generation but it may come in either this generation or the next. One, one cocoa full basket. Plan and set the foundation and watch the dream blossom. I might not live to live in the mansion but my child and grandchildren might. I am continuing what my parents started. Too many people have the get rich quick mentality and won't set the foundation to leave a legacy for their grandchildren. Probably, I think like this because I don't have to be rich. Would be nice 😘😎😅 but not at the top of my list of must do.

[@amosd8057]

@Pauline Stewart, are you absolutely correct. These idiots don't realize seh a JAMAICAN dollars them get pay in. The average income in Jamaica is less than $576,000/yr JMD and roughly equal to less than $4,600/yr USD. This fool talking and boast about houses costing $500,000/USD, when the average person in Jamaican can barely afford food pon them table much less houses costing $80,000 USD, muchless $500,000 USD houses. This is one of the reason the country is going in the direction it's going in. People overlooking the real shit that is going on and while giving praise to shit like this. The prices for milk, rice, chicken etc, is more higher in Jamaica than in USA and these idiots don't see a problem with that. Jamaica poverty level is outrageous, because income level can't match up with the cost of goods. Wealth is not equally distributed because we as a people allowed it to happen, that is the fact. Look at the price for hotels in Jamaica... $100/USD up to over $200 USD or even more per night, yet, workers are only being paid, about $3,000-$4,000/yr USD. Then look at price for food, houses etc. Country will continue with the poverty and crime rising is this trend continue and that is the reality of things.

[@Diafgadgsut]

@ Teach Dem, IT IS A BIG PROBLEM WITH BEING QUOTED IN USD. Have you taken a look at the average income in Jamaica? Have you taken a look at the prices for food? You seem to be blinded by the real facts of the matter. From mi a likkle pickney big houses deh inna Jamaica, all the places weh you talk bout and people could afford to buy land, Housing trust houses to start out and build on those, etc. Do some research on who is buying up NHT houses now because the teachers, nurses etc, can't afford them even though they are educated and working. Do some research and the real reality of things in Jamaica.

Executive persons in huge companies, yes, as well as Diplomatic community persons... etc. No need to call persons names when they do quote in US. Furthermore, the US is called *greenback* for a reason. I am Jamaican, live in Jamaica, lived outside of Jamaica as well (England and Ireland) and the greenback is quoted when making transactions. Even when the Sterling is base.

Thanks for the education on JA's RICH neighbourhoods, and thanks Dak G for the history lesson. However, I'm sad and disappointed that the price of houses continues to be quoted in USD. This historically devalues our currencies (J$)which then as a widerimpact and implications on the economy of the Island. I am trying to see if there are any other countries or Islands that ignores their own currencies to use someone else's! If you don't value what you have, how can others value it?? The same question goes for the people, we must start valuing ourselves, who we are, what we produce and the currencies we use to trade. TDem, the rich neighbourhoods are great to illustrate contrast of living standards on the Island but we find away to raise the morale and aspiration of the Jamaican community
