I'm from Chicago and man, what a dump.. The sky is depressing, the trash Is depressing, the boarded up windows is depressing. Nothing about that area inspires life or fun. Just brick building after sad brick building.

Englewood born and raised... grew up on 59th and Throop. So much good and so much very bad happened to me and my family on those streets... dont know rather to smile or cry while looking at this drive thru video and reminiscing 😔

I am 57 and grew up on the Southside. Damn the images in this video brings back memories. Sadly it looks like a ghost town now making it hard to believe that back in my childhood days the parks were green and the neighborhoods were filled with kids playing outside on virtually every blocks . There were black owned neighborhood stores in every hood where 50 cents could get you a bag of candy. Political administration's changes made them all slowly disappear. Now there are vacant lots everywhere and despite the media making people believe the gangs changed all of that it was government neglect, shipping manufacturing jobs overseas, stopping of city services in those areas all for the purpose of bringing property values down making those areas ripe for gentrification. The project building seen in the opening of the TV show "Good Times" are all gone, the people are gone and now their are high rent buildings and condos there with Starbucks and white people jogging with exotic dogs. It's the same thing happening all over this nation with places like Brooklyn NY being another example. It's sad looking at the Southside today because it doesn't show the life that was once vibrant in those areas. My family lived from 56th and Normal through 62nd and Normal from the late sixties through the mid 70's. Today that area is a vacant lot bought up by the railroads for pennies all of my childhood memories wiped away by bulldozers and surrounded by chainlink fences. 😢

I live in a village in Gloucestershire in England and we had a spate of litter dropping and weeds growing from the gutter. However, after a meeting in the church hall we all decided to get together one Sunday afternoon and tidy up. I realise it's a bigger job here but then you do have more people to call upon who don't appear to be particularly busy. It's amazing what a bit of organisation amongst neighbours can achieve. Sharing a nice cup of tea and some homemade cakes afterwards certainly encourages kinship.

Illinois is the problem period it's mismanaged by terrible government officials people are running from IL in record numbers ..

I used to work in the area in the 90’s and every house & apartment was occupied. It looked nothing like you see today. During the daytime you see rarely see anyone outside.

Only happiness I saw was at 9:37 when the dogs playin

That 500mil that went to illegals could've definitely helped the Westside & Southside of chicago!!!

I don't live in Englewood, but I go through different parts of it everyday. I am watching Hispanics, buy those houses, fix them up, and live in them. Their houses are beautiful, for the most part. Further South, the neighborhood improves and it looks relatively nice. In other words, ALL of Englewood don't not look like this.

Bro really pulled in the parking lot to show us the graffiti off 59th 💀

As a life long Illinois resident i can say thats the quietest and the cleanest ive ever seen Englewood look❤

Englewood; a place of such wonderful dreams and terrifying nightmares.

If you guys notice there is no trash in front of these homes or even in the alleyway i’m from chicago don’t judge the people of the abandoned homes that’s a government issue even though houses are not the best those residents take pride in their homes you didn’t see any trash what does that mean ❤

Despite being a high crime area (far from the worst) of Chicago, Englewood is a close knit community.

Lots of hispanics are buying those broken down houses and fixing them up especially by Sherman Park(MoeTown) in englewood my neighbors used to be all black now the whole hood is almost all hispanic and with the migrants coming in englewood is gonna be more hispanic in the coming years

This is so sad. I grew up in this neighborhood in the 60's. We lived at 5658 S. Hermitage, but we traveled up and down a lot of these streets to visit relatives and friends. It was vibrant! CLEAN! Safe. People watched out for each other.

Il governo americano dovrebbe aiutare il suo popolo😢e non pensare le altre nazioni😮 non si governa così

Kitty alert @2:36. I hope someone is feeding him. 🐱

Hopefully the migrants will revive this community to see more new houses and businesses opening

I’m from the Midwest, Milwaukee to be exact. Milwaukee is an hour away from Chicago. My opinion, the whole Midwest is dying. I use to go to Chicago, it’s not anything I’m interested in anymore. A lot of people are still fleeing from up there.

CharlieBo...please show some corner street signs when you're filming. It would give all of us a better idea where you are. Thank you, and lets be careful out there!

Englewood Raised.... I have lived on several of these blocks mainly 67th and Sangamon Damn the Area looks so desolate now, All the big brick buildings were once full of people, Life & memories the footage Howards Chicken shack on 69th street had some good food. Good times & bad times Englewood helped mold me taught me how to survive & live anywhere

Anyone notice the large amount of vacant lots? They are the result of buildings being torn or burned down either by the city's "Urban Renewal" of the 1960s, or the MLK riots of April 1968. Now these lots have 50-year-old trees growing on them or just being overgrown.

Great video, Charlie, I love these, thank you! (Also, every time you go into those narrow little alleys, I'm always so worried that you'll be jumped and murdered... even though, if that had happened, we would obv. never see the video. But pls stay safe!)

Chicago looks better than any hood video you have ever posted bro.

these neighborhoods would've been so beautiful 60 years ago

I’m from Chicago and from the 100s on down to the low end some areas are run down because there is no Jobs in the areas , the economic infrastructure in these areas are bad and it caused alot of poverty and run down buildings because people can’t really afford to put alot of money back into their properties.

i love these videos. thanks always relaxing

Thought it was 1980's NYC with all that writing on the wall😂, WORD!

Such a depressing looking place, with many depressed and unhappy people. Nobody wants to help this place, not even the people who live here. I seriously do not see it getting “better”, hard to imagine any big corporations or businesses moving in anytime soon neither.

Jeez... even the trees are un happy there... City is lacking leadership.

Another banger!

What a horrible, depressing place. Stay safe.

Democrats love this, keep you down with empty promises of better.

Great video Charlie Bo. Wish you had driven by 63rd and Wallace. That's the sight of the infamous Murder Castle. A post office sits on that spot today.

Chicago is one giant enormous hood. You literally have to drive out of the entire Chicago to get out the Hood.

The camera footage is phenomenal

Anyone else notice how there's so much more litter on the south side compared to the north side?

I visited Illinois and I asked my people to take me to Chicago so I can see if it is all that they make it out to be on social media and the news and man oh man they were spot on it even worse you have so many abandoned buildings break buildings I mean it is so depressing I left crying and very sad because I did not know my people were living like that in Chicago and when I say my people I’m saying my Black people my people that I visited for a month do not live in Chicago. They live an hour away in the suburbs, but I could not leave without seeing Chicago and it was just horrifying.

Where are we going? If it's easier to infiltrate foreign countries with the help of political intrigues and military bases around the world than to put things in order in your backyard? Where have the funds from depleted resources gone? The decline of hegemony.

I left this very neighborhood for Uganda.

Thank you for this CHarlie, stay safe, you are a treasure!❤

Come thru in the summer late afternoons and nights, it’s going to be different footage. I’m Chicago born and raised and summers get wild out here

Next time you’re in Englewood, you should stop at Kusanya Cafe on 69th & Green. One of the best coffee shops in the city, in my opinion.

2:44 soon to be discontinued Shotspotter microphone array on the light pole. Thanks Brandon for keeping the city safe.

I WONDER WHO IS DOING ALL THIS GRAFFITI NOWADAYS.

Ain't nothing but heroes and fallen soldiers over there the neighborhood is absolutely legendary the city government the city municipalities does not care about the conditions of my community voting is a joke politics is a joke I swear when and if I'm able to do it I'm going to give back to my community😢😢😢

Come do East Oakland California, bro. It’s wild out here nowadays.

Miles Davis 'On The Corner' soundtrack needed.

GOTTA GIVE IT TO YOU BRO YOU REALLY BE "SPINNING THE BLOCK" IN SOME OF THE MOST DANGEROUS NEIGHBORHOODS ON EARTH FR FR 💯

Love the old blue Caddy at the beginning of the video!

My old company HQ was in Englewood cliffs. I only had to go once for a week. Had some good food. But was very happy to leave.

I can't believe I'm the first 🎉

This isn't all Englewood. IMO you have to change the mindsets of people. We were poor growing up didn't have much, but we didn't trash our own neighborhood. We clean up our block just because we didn't live in front of that house we picked up the trash. My moms would say you don't have to live here to pick up trash you live on the block and in the neighborhood . We didn't have much, but we kept it nice. There's a difference working for things instead of things getting handed to you. When you work for it you appreciate it and value it. When it's handed to you-you could careless because you say they gonna give it to me again.

Englewood is changing a lot. For the better. There are a lot of new developments that are coming, and being built currently. Show the nice parts of Englewood! Not all of it is run down.

should have made GTA here

I'm from Chicago, but i haven't lived there for many years, watching this is depressing, they need to Clean It Up, it can be done.

That's a dangerous neighborhood right there One of Chicago most dangerous hood So rough and scary 😮 Anytime I remember this I always think of Durk 😢

How ironic I was just over there by 56th & union yesterday and he drive past 56th and union threw that alley going towards Halsted 😮

I avoid alleys as much as possible when I'm in the city, be careful. That's one area you don't want a flat tire in.

It's sad to see how deteriorated is Englewood. Like there is no hope of improving.

Chicago don't fix it's streets....unless you live near an alderman or you got the hook up

More food reviews please😊

The 70's is when things started going to shit here!

Man I miss how it used to be round there. We used to be able to walk ANYWHERE and was comfortable around there. 59th Always!

What sets rome around these blocks ?

I’m from Englewood and it makes me sick to see what has happened. White Englewood 69th street area was a great place to grow up. The Italians kept it crime free! The parks, the Italian fests, the schools, the freedom all gone !! Sickening and sad blacks and whites could have lived in harmony but the city red lined and segregated and black women settled for bums not men and the children suffered in fatherless homes . You think history would have taught us something but it still goes on! 2024!

You should play elvis presley song in the getto

THAT'S MY MOFO HOOOD NO LOVE CITY BABYYYYY MY HEART BLEEDS FOR MY LAND I WISH I COULD REVAMP EVERY VYDOCK TO VACANT LOT...😢😢

Did the movie Fugitive shoot some scenes around there?

I read years ago, that a famous architect said; Chicago was like a women with a very beautiful face ,meaning the Loop/Downtown & a very ugly body , meaning areas of Chicago like this..

It's still Old World Building in that part of Chicago

Front yard spiked-top fences tell you all you need to know about the neighborhood.

Whoever filming this must be from over there how they keep going around in circles without caring about consequence lbs iykyk

No shops, no convenience stores, no restaurants, no neighborhood Pubs, no CVS, Walgreens, gas stations. everything the rest of us take for granted. So sad.

😢Be careful going in the alley,it's really dangerous in Englewood, I moved my son,away from there.

Love thy neighbor as thy self

I really don't care how bad people try to make my city out to be. I love Chicago. There are cities with true hell holes, but i get it this give everyone a chance to look down on something while ignoring their shit. Pitiful

At least', it was partly sunny at times...

Waht a peaceful environment..I love it

I worked in Chicago subs for yrs as a union carpenter, revamping abandoned schools under the Obama no child left behind plan. Engl, S-Calumet, Gary. And so on. Also converted Wamu banks into Chase after they closed at 7pm till 4am. I bought a ten yr old chev expess van and left the windows down when parked. Shit was crazy as a 27yr white guy from a small rural town.

U should go to Chillicothe Ohio where I grew up. Place is bad in certain areas.

It's crazy we have money to give other countries but we cant invest here in are own country such a shame people need to stop voting for these people

Born an raised on da trey cpt 💯 so many great memories but so many painful ones as well

Much representative of the eight years I spent in Detroit. Less burned out buildings though.

Now how the hell you get everywhere so fast??? 😆

you"re asking for trouble driving down those alleys

💯🖖🏾💙

Is there ever blue sky's there? Geez so depressing.

Notice there no one around place is from an apocalypse movie

What a dump and the whole place looks terrifying. I wouldn't want to walk around there during the day let alone at night.

Nice Chicago graffiti in Englewood

WOW,shocking😮what happened to the hood/chicago

Such a thriving community, no trash laying around n shiet

I see kitty cats survive good. That stripped cat that passed by.

Englewood born and raised work at Cisco's on 63rd Halsted..

Oh u brave brave driving through alleys 😱🥴

I would think BLM would have built a community center or perhaps a BLM Grocery store. 😂

Yea good old 5738 s Elizabeth.... He literally rolled through my hood and never went to 74th street 😂
