WARNING - Coming to Vegas? Uncovering a HOMELESS Camp in the RICHEST Part of Town...

Finding the homeless in Summerlin was not what I had expected. That is exactly what I found. Where do the homeless population in Las Vegas go if they are NOT on the strip?

Nice editing/reporting!:)

[@NOTLeavingLV]

Thanks! I wish everyone was so amazing and generous as you!

[@treavey1]

those rolled grass mats aren't flood control barriers they are erosion control barriers to prevent soil erosion from the vacant lot you were walking by from getting into the storm drain; however they need to be in a continuous line to work properly and those were broken up.

[@mikewingate284]

Good video Steven. I'm not shocked at all. Homelessness has been rampant for a couple decades now. Cities are just fooling themselves if they think breaking up homeless encampments solves anything. The people they run off are still homeless, and have to go somewhere. They will spread out for a short time, but will gather together again. Our country doesn't want to truly address the homeless issue. Homelessness will always be worse in warmer climates.

Super-bowl ticket sales alone came to $840,000,000. Something is seriously screwed up in our society.

[@KIckAssPinball]

Go over by the high roller, follow those tunnels and you'll find a whole community.

[@Black_Benz2023]

Excellent video. I saw a documentary about the Vegas tunnels. So sad.The homeless and the tents are all over Toronto and also in the suburbs. At least Vegas does not have the cold Canadian winters and snow. Toronto is very unaffordable...Average house around $1, 000, 000. Rent is close to $2, 000 month.

[@lindasd7591]

Ty Steven for this informative presentation. It's shocking what's been happening these last few years. I dont feel safe outside my home. I pray God keeps you and Caroline safe. God bless. 🙏

[@Fuff63]

Great vid man. It’s a complex problem with often complex answers. Cheers.

[@reneeorton5349]

Excellent video. I appreciate you being different than other vlogers.

[@reapercrew618]

Great video Steven!!!!

[@mai_bills_be_paid.]

Definitely a serious homeless problem here in Vegas. Last Sunday a homeless person stole my Hummer from in front of my condo. I think it was cold outside and maybe they just needed shelter. LVPD recovered it in less than 24 by a homeless area abandoned with a small carriage cart in my truck.

[@jimmylabb5868]

They ain't homeless if they know how to steal.

[@nmraidernation.6092]

This is a world wide issue, wish there was a quick solution or even a temporary solution, we need to figure this out as people...

[@realm-lv]

Great Video

[@pete69696]

Great video brother. Very sad. I never knew they were there.

[@MG-qd6im]

Good video, Steven. This is the type of subject that your long-form videos lend themselves to.

[@Willhart33]

These longer documentary style videos remind me of something I would see on Nat Geo TV or Vice News. Of course, they probably have a lot more resources to protect their camera crews if something goes south, as the saying goes. Thanks for doing this.

[@HOlsen-xe1xy]

Nicely made video.

[@unboxinglife2308]

Nice relevant video!! The tunnel people under the strip is crazy. Used to watch them from the Rio go under the interstate, it’s sad most of them are nice people.

[@DFUTURE2121]

Florida is full of homeless people as well.

[@MichaelInTheDesert]

Summerlin south is west of Hualapai Way so technically you’re in Spring Valley but that’s neither here nor there. Homelessness is all over the city unfortunately.

[@deborahmcclintock5955]

Thank you so much it's about time someone did a video on these poor people I've been a local here for 18 years we've got to do something about it!!!

[@DE-vs2xy]

Many of them choose to be homeless. They want to be feral. They refuse help.

[@LVScooter1]

This isn"t surprisingly at all. Cashman Park by Decatur and Desert Imn has a bunch of homeless people

[@TomManning-cs4el]

🎉 it's called trickle down economics thanks you Ron Reagan

[@EclecticEndeavorsbyDemi]

As long as the bus goes to 90% of the city they will and can end up in your neighborhood eventually.

[@unchainedsilver9702]

Its happening everywhere in the last few years ...Even the "NICE" parts of Vancouver and Calgary have camps now ...where 10 years ago it was only on the East side or older parts of town ..

[@joetomalee3315]

You have a cool accent; possibly the most Canadian accent I’ve ever heard. Love your content!

[@bigisle87]

Very well done, Steven. I know I can be a bit harsh with criticism sometimes but you did exceptionally well with this one. Great work!

[@harlanabraham7772]

Good video.

[@lindathompson5099]

Living in Roanoke Virginia some people are redoing motels!

[@janebeckman3431]

Last month, I was in Vegas, and I was in a shopping mall parking lot. I parked next to some mystery equipment, beside a flood control channel. When I returned to my car, it was announcing "You are trespassing, and this is a citable offense." to someone in the channel on the other side of the fence. I was a little bit freaked, and realized this might have been where people migrated when evicted from tunnels under the Strip. It's a sad situation, and a bit like playing Whack a Mole, as people move to different areas/flood channels.

[@gnucci3958]

Great video Steve! Sadddd state of affairs in Las Vegas and even where I live north of the border. Homeless is everywhere.....

[@nancysmith2215]

Interesting.

[@davids8108]

I told myself that I’ll never become homeless. I’d rather work 24/7 to make ends meet.

[@jamescox5626]

You know I live in California and would like to live in Beverly Hills but I can’t afford it. Should I be able to live there even if I can’t afford it ? I don’t think so but it Makes me work harder.

If everyone would do just a little bit things may be different always remember lots are one paycheck from being homeless

[@TheRoadGlideRider]

Smash the Like 👍🏽 Button

[@hamshank8892]

I cant believe its homeless people in summerlinn oh no not summelinn my god its so prestigious out there lol..... 😂 east Henderson what up lol

[@MichaelInTheDesert]

He’s not even in Summerlin. I don’t know why he said he was. That’s Summerlin adjacent but actually Spring Valley.

[@anicetopontillas8121]

Homeless on the rise. Some due to the rent increase. Maybe the city should get a rent control for people over the age of 65.

[@foreverhomepetrescue]

I live in the San Fernando Valley near Los Angeles and we have to gate our front yards or we will end up with tents. RVs, vans and cars are parked and lived in absolutely everywhere. MANY folks park "ghost" vehicles on the street near their properties to prevent the start of a new unhoused community moving onto their street. I know of several places where there was open space (city owned small greenbelts) and the neighbors paid to fence it off to prevent a move-in. Here it is also VERY common for the homeless community to light EACHOTHER's belongings on fire - so we have hillside fires, vehicle fires and RV fires weekly. It's a sad state of affairs.

[@clintonjones955]

free 'Obama Phones' and any one can do what Steven does ...the problem is easy drugs and missions for cloths and food ... You can't make backbone for a jellyfish #INTERESTINGTIMES

[@donaldkeller5397]

When i visit Vegas i will make sure i don't walk in the drainage ditch.
