And the people voted for Reagan and he fucked the shit out of them, enjoy! Still believe in free-trade.

This is ridiculous. Cleveland is booming, people moved out if city to suburbs, but now back to city

Shenectady new york?

I just came back and it's a cool place. Weird but cool IMHO and I would visit again. I wish that I saw this video first so that I wasn't going in blind lol.

I hope passenger service on the rails Makes better business in the future

I prefer New England or Texas, but I lived in Illinois for four years and it wasn’t bad.

I’ve lived in Syracuse, my whole life and it’s a very nice city not super compact like New York City not empty like utica or Cortland and Destiny Mall, formally known as carousel mall is a nice place to visit and has hundreds of things to do

Dan white snapped he couldn’t take the liberal shift in front of him crazy

Just moved here, a year now.. I like Schenectady.

I'd like to add that the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 was really more "window dressing" than anything else. Namely-even after it became law-if those who had fled North via the Underground Railroad could prove their having resided on free soil for 7 years, then their masters down South would lose all ownership of them. It was actually the Supreme Court, in Dred Scott v. Sanford, who flung America into disarray. Namely, the chief justice of the United States, Roger Taney, wrote for the majority that statutes of limitations did not apply to "the least-favored race," and thus escaped slaves had to live in fear of repatriation until they died. This led to John Brown's ill-fated raid on Harper's Ferry, which in turn catalyzed the outbreak of the Civil War.

I live close to Ithaca unfortunately. It’s an absolute shithole.

The "rust belt"... One of the reasons it's called that because of the use of salt on the roads in the winter... In just a few winters, your "new" rust free vehicle shows signs of surface rust and small pinholes in structure... In about 5 years, you start seeing holes the size of quarters or bigger... In about 7 years, you have holes that you can stick your fist through... In 8 years, your sub-frames and chassis components are too trotted out to safely function... I worked on cars for a living after going to college and getting certified... The rusted piles of junk were horrible to work on... No one wanted to spend money to fix their cars properly because they were all broke... States like Ohio had no State Vehicle Inspections... I saw tie rods on trucks held together with coat hangers and duct tape... Brake rotors worn so badly there were no pads and the rotors were worn through the vents... I grew up deep in the "rust belt" of Middle Eastern Ohio on the borders of PA and WVA... It was a GOD awful place... There was NO opportunity and so much bigotry... If you weren't a Catholic or an Italian, you weren't getting hired in the mills... (which were the only decent paying jobs) School teachers and administrators ignored those who weren't "their own"... I joined the military... Went to college again... I retired in NC at the age of 55... (Something I NEVER would have been able to do in the "rust belt") When I visit these cities, I get a sick feeling in the pit of my stomach... Every one of my friends and family members who are still living there struggle... They have health problems from asbestos and polluted air... And I remember how polluted the rivers and lakes were... (The Ohio River caught on fire for crying out loud!) You're not going to attract people because of "fresh water"... The mines and the steel mills took care of that... And the railroads with their "accidents" are continuing the tradition... You want to live there... You can have at it... As far as I'm concerned, if GOD wanted to give the world an enema, He would start there...

Rust belt cities have good bones.

Nice vid! Would've loved to hear more about Olean. How about it being called "Little Chicago" and how Al Capone use to visit there?

Was the low point on my drive to Vermont

RUST BELT IS W

Piece of crap place

A shit hole

In the city of fresno song s

I'd like to know how Dan White was in prison; if he still felt justified, his comments etc. I know he didnt get therapy there.

Olean is located along the Allegany River. Bradford, Pa is a very short drive and it's the home of Zippo Lighters. St. Bonaventure University is so large, it has it's own zip code. St. Bonaventure was the university that famous Matt Gantt attended. He was drafted by Phoenix Suns, 4th round (12th pick, 59th overall), 1972 NBA Draft.

Been watching The Wire so I was curious

This is a great little documentary about Schenectady. I enjoyed it.

The very availability of fresh water could literally drive people back to these cities. We could see the likes of Las Vegas and Phoenix lose 50% or more of its urban population because of the lack of water.

Albany is the new name given to the Dutch city of Beverwijck in the 1660's

Baltimore, the Flemish city..

Come back strong Baltimore, Maryland 💪🏾

Rest in peace Dan White.

It's a cute little town with a New England feel but the first thing that must be done is to build back like it was before but better upon all those parking lots!

❤

it definingly extends all the way up to cities like Lewiston Maine (including the forgotten mill towns of new england)

Very interesting video,

Hey Baltimore, please build a wall around your city so your pathetic politics don’t infect the rest of the country.

Milwaukee will be a big city again we r already on the right path and we r in Wisconsin the happiest state in USA 😊

Anyone who lived in Schenectady between the late 50s and mid 90s knows who my dad was. I have lived all over the northeast, but Schenectady will always be "home".

Spent several years in the STNY. Great place and even better people. Had great times there.

Tulare county stand up.

Dam Edomites tick tock on Judah

The greediest country on earth. They have invaded just about every country on earth. Everything they see they want and feel that they are entitled to. And they wonder why they are not trusted or liked. How many countries has the United States invaded??? They are dropping bombs on Yemen now, sending millions to Ukraine, Israel. Polk stole millions of acres of land from Mexico 🇲🇽 and they can’t find 6 feet of land anywhere to keep him buried. They have moved him several times. He will never Rest In Peace. He died in his 40s glutton. Karma. Taylor died. Sounds like possible foul play.Mexico didn’t want to sell. Hey, if you don’t want to sell, you don’t want to sell. It was by force as usual. The great Satan! The treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo is an invalid document worth less than used toilet paper because it was altered by Congress after it was signed, removing articles to further favor the United States. It was not honored.

My father was from Rochester. We frequently went back in my childhood years for family reunions. I went to the War Memorial for a concert in 1989. That is my only memory of downtown, during the reunions we never visited because my father always said it was dangerous. Hopefully that is not true anymore!

Trump is a sociopath. Those other guys were not. I have studied them.

Feinstein used this to become the Mayor and than later the position of Senator and Dan White shooting the Mayor and Harvey had nothing to do with LGBT but just him being rebuffed by both to them to get his position back on the board. I do believe that Dan did not commit suicide and was probably killed due to getting away with two murders.

How about Green Island New York

People generally don’t want to live in cities. Might have been trendy for millennials last decade but now we are starting families and buying homes in suburbs.

Why did Dan White's wife stay with him? I would have divorced him.

6 months residence in Pittsburgh justifies suicide hmm not much changed

Cincinnati downtown is much bigger

overpriced garbage city

Me as a Milwaukee native, it just makes me smile about this video and rust belt in general. Something about the culture of Rust Belt region is just feels like home to me: the abandon factories, old historic buildings and mixed used homes & economy.

I'm not sorry White killed himself months after he was released. The verdict and penalty was no justice for the double murder!!
