I too noticed a decline. Remember people you voted for this.

[@ELIRAXPRT]

I’ve been to Vegas 5 times in the last 20 years. I’ve noticed a significant decline during my last visit in 2022. There are so many homeless cracked out people on the strip it’s unbelievable. It would be one thing if they were just sitting there with a sign asking for money but they are engaging with people and acting angry and violent. There is a complete lack of police and security out on the sidewalks and bridges. The casinos don’t care what goes on outside. You can smell weed all over. I was shocked how many people I saw bring kids there

[@tedmattos9454]

Right..STINKS BAD!

[@BudGreene87]

I’m in Vegas on vacation right now and that’s what brought me here , im from NJ and often work in NYC. I might see a crazy violent bum in NYC every once in a while but me and my fiancé encountered at least a half dozen in Vegas in just a few hours today!! I think it’s the meth out here.. makes people nuts, don’t see this on the east coast. It’s scary!! and yes, people are smoking weed out in the open everywhere. I have nothing against smoking weed but come on, I always would at least be discrete with it!

[@Neglected-Nostalgia]

Who cares about weed? It's legal there. More worried about drunks starting shit

[@gigi9301]

Agreed; I went there in the mid-80's first time. Cheap/safe/fun at that time. Honeymooned there in the mid-90's/ noticed an edge and Yikes factor. Went there two years ago on my own; stayed in a time-share off the strip and it's just too risky for a single person especially a woman to to visit alone; I went on the big ferris wheel, thought I had my bearings, but of course it's vegas so I was super disorientated. They don't let you off of the wheel on the same street or orientation that you embarked. Beware. I got super lucky I absolutely knew I was lost and went straight to a well-known casino; they didn't help me; they turned their backs on me asking to call an uber or lyft with no cell phone reception. Absolutely crazy, but two young gentlemen told me hey you look completely Lost. I said Yes. They worked in the casinos there and were kind enough to make sure I got back to my cheap time share off the strip ...safely. OMG. There are Great people everywhere, but I would not endorse anyone else as a single female to attempt this ever. As night started to fall, I didn't freak out or play the victim. I just kept on walking (in the wrong direction). Please realize that your GPS/phone will not help you in the middle of vegas with all those metal buildings/tall structures.

[@carlawilson1827]

I’ve been to Vegas many times solo and always feel safe. That being said, I don’t venture off the beaten path. When solo I try to walk near groups so it’s not obvious that I am alone. If I am enjoying some cocktails I will stay at my home casino so I don’t have to walk outside, especially at night. I appreciate the great advice that you share on your channels. Even though I have been there many times over the years I always learn something new or discover a hidden gem because of you two. As always, great job!

[@bambinaforever1402]

My son was last year in Vegas with buddies, so they went to sleep and he was loitering there in the middle of the night alone filming for me, he said he felt safe because there were people everywhere. He was walking the strip of course. I preferred to enjoy fountain view from my room in Bellagio. Safe and clean. Nothing to see in Vegas - all shabby and dirty

At about that time, there were multiple people stabbed with two dying right outside the Wynn. My guardian angel whispering in my ear.

[@pia4944]

Thank you for the video. As a resident of Vegas for the last 26 years, I have seen a lot. Vegas has always had a crime element like most cities. When I moved here downtown was no-go zone. The Fremont Street Experience hadn't been developed and the majority of the homeless population was in this area. Once redevelopment began downtown, the homeless population spread out to other parts of the valley including the underground tunnels ( Vegas version of skid row). I've seen all facets of crime, but before social media, Vegas had control of the narrative. You didn't hear much about crime once the corporate entities took control and the city was marketed to families. They no longer have control, and now you are seeing the underbelly. To add to the safety tips, ladies please be careful within the hotel/casino space. People will take advantage if they see you are not in full control. This element also goes under-reported.

Like everywhere in the world, you will have some area that you don't want to go to even in daylight. I lived in Vegas for 20 years, I got robbed once in front of my office. But most people would have their homes burglarized, and cars broken into, or robbed outside the casinos. You cannot be careful enough, it is life and if you are robbed, let go of whatever they want and run for your life. You cannot buy your life back. Period. Be safe. I had enough of Vegas and I just left for good.

We ended up driving to through some of those sketchy areas you mentioned. A young lady at a quick stop mentioned that we were in the wrong neighborhood. I'll see you on your next video

[@Pimp21ULike]

I've lived in Vegas since 97 and they are right on a lot of things however I wanted to just add my 2 cents for anyone thinking of visiting. Stay on the strip anywhere from mandalay bay to the sahara. If your thinking of going to downtown just get an uber or drive there. Don't pass the strat, once u pass it it gets very sketchy. Remember from mandalay bay to sahara is ok once you pass sahara its a whole different thing. Walk during the day and try not to be alone at night.

[@Supremmo]

First time I visited Vegas was in 2006. We stayed at the Klondike which is no more. I remember a knock on our door and it was a homeless person asking us for money. They’re pretty aggressive when it comes to asking but that whole panhandler at our door thing tripped us out.

[@christopherking6367]

There are good and bad neighborhoods just about everywhere. Educate yourself and ask questions. Videos like this are very helpful. I've definitely had some sketchy moments walking in Las Vegas and all of them were at night. I caught the tail end of the mob run era in sin city and I feel like it was safer back then. Those were different times but I feel as if they would not have tolerated so much homelessness. Sure there was crime, but for the average visitor just trying to have a good time it felt safe and definitely more glamorous.

[@AWrapperShorts]

I would avoid Wyoming Ave! That street is notorious for homelessness, crime and some crackheads running out towards people! And Sahara Ave to the north in sketchy too!

[@OwenLoney]

I have traveled to Vegas alone before a few times, I usually stay at New York New York or Luxor, and I walk around the strip area during the day but at night I pretty much stay in or around the hotel area.

I stayed at the Strat last month. I often went to Denny's or IHOP for a late night Snack. I never felt unsafe. I was asked for some change 2 times. No big Deal. I always had some quarters in my pocket, so I didn't have to pull out my wallet. Don't leave the Strip in that area even in daytime, and you'll be fine.

[@TurnItUpWorld]

[@JosephSato-1997]

They get creative by robbing you without you knowing it. You’ve just checked in your hotel and walking alongside the Las Vegas Blvd thinking you are safe. Not realizing you’ve just been robbed by their resort fees. And when you get tired walking and sit in front of the slot machine, they rob you for a second time without you knowing it.

[@LABoyko]

Was once held up at gun point walking from the Westgate to LV BLVD., a distance of one very long block. I was traveling alone in the middle of the day and the robber pulled up in a car, waved me over as if he wanted to ask me something. I hesitated because it didn't feel right. When I did, the criminal, a very young Latino driving a very old compact car, produced a hand gun from under the passenger seat cushion and pointed it right at me. I stared right down the barrel. His aim was perfect. Had he pulled the trigger, he would have shot me in the face. In that instant I turned and ran in the direction of the Strip. The criminal gave no pursuit and I ducked into the nearest business, the still-existing Riviera Hotel and Casino. Every crime is a crime of opportunity; Las Vegas is a target-rich environment for criminals.

[@valerie8293]

If you come to LV with your RV, make sure you avoid at all costs Mainstreet RV park. We had our bicycles $500 each stolen last night! They were locked and secured on a bike rack. It was so quiet, even our dog didn't react. Filed a police report, but no hope to get our bikes back.... Mfrs

[@Scott_works]

I lived in Vegas in the 90s and went to college after leaving the USMC. My parents retired there so I chose UNLV because I could hang with them after 12 years in the military. I moved away in '96 and moved back ten years later after my dad passed. I needed to be close to my mom. I got there and the housing market collapsed. There was no work to be found. I finally got a job working at a mini-mart / laundry matt. People ripped that place off blind. They guy who I replaced had been shot in the head outside the store. It was his fault - he sold a dude some fake drugs and when the guy came back he began to fight with him and the guys friend shot him. It was close to UNLV but the place was dangerous at night with heroin addicts, crack heads, and tweakers. The crack heads would come in to steal and then forget why they came into the store before they could steal anything. The tweakers would stay up all night plotting their theft and were the most dangerous. People trying to pass counterfeit bills, etc. I moved to Naked City, the neighborhood behind the Stratosphere. It used to be the place where people went to find drugs and prostitutes and is in-between the Black and Hispanic gang turfs. It is a dangerous place at night. I got a job at the Seven Eleven behind the Strat. "Someone got shot in the face on the corner" or "They found another body in the dumpster" and other comments were common when you came into work. On one occasion I kicked out a guy selling crack, a hooker and her john, and a homeless dude pissing in the phone booth at one time, all in front of the store. I saw women who were owned by gangs - they owed them money for drugs and then got prostituted until they paid off their debt. Gang members would walk them to their appointments. They would be around for a few weeks, steadily going down hill and then they would disappear. You learned to believe only half of what you hear and repeat none of it. There was a girl driving a brand new Cadillac Esplanade cruisin' with two friends. They were tweaking and would stop in every few hours to refill their drinks. They were up for several days straight. Eventually, she was hooking to get money and her friends were gone. The gangs got ahold of her and the Cadillac was gone.. They passed her around for a week or two until she was cooked. I lived in a small one bedroom on Boston Street. They remodeled the old building next door. Some guy was living there, supposedly keeping an eye on the place during the renovation. One morning I woke up and the whole building was burnt down. They said the fire dept was there in the night but I had slept through it. The guy watching the place had started a fire and burnt the place down. A week later they found a burnt corpse in the building. It was likely that the fire was a coverup for a murder. I worked the swing shift at the 7/11 and talked to the driver who did the deliveries. I looked at his clip board and laughed. "you have a dangerous route" I said to him as I saw the other stores he delivered to, like the ones on Desert Inn. He said he stopped and prayed every night before going to one on DI. They frequently had shoot-outs in the parking lot and other crime going on around there. There were a lot of people who moved to Vegas from LA and they brought the gang stuff with them, once the mob was gone. It is a seedy place with a lot of drugs, gang violence, hookers, homeless and thieves. My mom passed in 2011 and I left town in 2012. Vegas in the 70s was cheesy. In the 80s it was great. In the 90s it was still cool. In the 2000s it became overwhelmed by homeless panhandlers, pickpockets, and criminals. Now it is an expensive nightmare.

Vegas resident. All you have to do is be careful when you’re downtown and on the strip. Never walk alone, especially at night. And the west side.

[@vaar2742]

As a local I am going to give you some excellent advice...Stay away from Circus Circus...don't stay or play there, It is ghetto, your car will not be safe as their have been break ins, druggies hang around everywhere and the rooms are total crap.

[@MissTree22]

But the indoor amusement park was fun!

[@vaar2742]

@@MissTree22 I said don't stay there..I didn't say don't visit the attractions.

[@MissTree22]

@@vaar2742 true. I would not stay there. I was in the casino and homeless types bothered us.

Coming in April! Random but would love to see a video on the best desserts (sweet tooth here) haha

[@Marnizzle2.0]

My daughter and I will be in town Monday through Friday and I hope I get to say hello. You have helped us plan our trip. Thank you

I have been to Las Vegas three times about 15 years ago and loved it! Never seen anything bad happening and was always up till around 5 or 6 in the morning outside. Never saw any homeless in casino's either but hearing about that problem everywhere.

[@lafemme8]

I've been to Vegas numerous times off and on since 2008 and a few times solo and I'm a woman. I've never had issues. Once a friend did have a homeless person yell at her in her face but she may have been mentally ill and she ending up walking off. That was the only odd thing I personally seen in my many years of traveling there. I will say use common sense, don't be confrontational, stay away from dark side streets just like with any other major city. Danger is everywhere and sometimes can't be avoided so I do not think Vegas is an unsafe destination in comparison to other major cities.

I saw Bill Cosby at a convention in Vegas but this was early 90s Vegas has changed

Good evening Mr. Dave & Mrs. Tanya.

[@redwow]

Las Vegas is not what it used to be.

[@ChrisHazz]

I've always felt pretty safe in Vegas, definitely felt a bit more run down at Fremont last year and agree much more homeless on the strip. Noticed more homeless going into casinos hunting for the tito's now they've done away with change at the machines. Still enjoy it there, will likely be back there in September.

[@paulaslater7448]

Thanks to both of you for bringing the real side of our beautiful dirty! I have lived in Las Vegas for over 28 years now, I moved here in 1992 and inspite of working on or near the Strip, I have never had a time that I felt in danger. At least no more in danger than when I have traveled to other large cities in the US! Vegas has so much to offer in entertainment value plus so many of our best places are nestled in close proximity to each other and that’s why years ago the local young people would cruse the Strip for a fun weekend evening out to enjoy the energy of our visitors having fun.The energy of Las Vegas can be very addicting, so if you come to visit for the first time, don’ forget to sign up as a member of your favorite casino’s Layers club and earn credits for discounts on your next visit. Trust me, you will want to come back again because there are so many beautiful places thst surround o ur city, not just the famous Strip! After moving to Vegas so many years ago from upstate NY, my friends from back home would innocentlybas k me if I lived on the strip! That’s when I realize zed that most people in general don’t even know about all special hidden gems, like beautiful parks and natural mini desert hiking trails that offer a cool mid-morning hike with incredible mountain and city views. Mt. charleston generally runs 10 degrees cooler even our summer months when ithe heat certainly can be blistering at above 100 degrees F.based on my personal experience, I would prefer 100 degrees of low humidity to over the below zero temps of upstate NY, not even factoring in the wind chill thst freezes even your nose hairs just from breathing in! Lol. We love and appreciate all of our visitors. I invite you all personally to be quests in Vegas whenever you are feeling cold in some other state! We will be waiting to greet you and show you what a fun vacation really feels like! Namaste, Paula in Las Vegas 🥰

[@BagsByCABYarnTravels]

Hi Tanya and Dave! Thank you so much for this video. Priceless. Saved it in my Faves! Although I am a BIG Vegas fan and travel there often for Several years, I always use good common sense and sound judgment to stay safe. Enjoy your weekend! CAB 😍

[@TurnItUpWorld]

That's great advice. Thank you for watching!

[@markakira8988]

I knew of most these dangerous areas *but I knew you two would make this interesting. Peace.

[@rickuyeda4818]

Vegas was so much better with the Mob. Cheap rooms, cheap food and no crime. Now it's the Corporations that are ripping off tourists. Resort fees indeed!!!

[@tracyaugustine3588]

You guys are great

[@kevinbourne3017]

We stay downtown when we visit. I love going down to Atomic Liquors because they have great beers on tap. After we hit Evel Pie for some great pizza. They also have decent beer on tap.

[@wakeywarrior]

I went to Vegas from the UK for the third time last summer. To be honest I won’t be back. Drug users everywhere, Weed, dodgy people, even one of the showgirl scammers on the street made threats when we wouldn’t have a picture taken. There’s much nicer places to visit in the great USA. When I went 20 years ago I parked near Fremont and had a nervous moment when I walked to my parked car nearby at night and there was a big man leaning against the fence with a lead pipe in his hands for some reason.

[@justme6767]

I lived in Vegas certain parts you don't want to be in alone but for the most part the strips is okay but stay with a crowd not alone avoid speaking to strangers ,all hotels have security and the le is seen on the strip. Have a cell for emergencies
