Hometown of Brandon Ingram, Jerry Stackhouse, Reggie Bullock, and a half-dozen other retired NBA players. Not bad for a town with less than 20k people.
I had my first job at Caswell in Kinston. Bought my first house. Got married. Had my baby. In the 1980's. Went back this past week and cried and cried for poor Kinston. I love this little town but it was SO sad to see what happened to it.
So you only circled those five or six bad blocks, you could of given Kinston a little more credit you only circled what 5 blocks in one little area 🤷🏽♀️
Visited the CSS Neuse Museum and the Life-size replica of a Confederate Civil War ironclad gunboat. Stayed in Scotland Neck for 3 months, and visited the whole eastern part of North Carolina.
Every town has neighborhoods, some neighborhoods are going to be the worst. If you pick one little section, and stay in that section, ofc you'll get all the negative footage you want....#FromdaK
This person only chose the worst part of Kinston, I was born and raised there. Their are beautiful homes and businesses in Kinston. Showcase wherever you are originally from. If you do not like what you see in Kinston, perhaps you could make some type of constructive help to improve. Learn and practice being positive.
@@MenaKing-yl6fw Funny you say that yet you would rather complain about a CZcams video than do something about Kinston's poor education (the percent of 21+ adults with a high school diploma or= is way below the national average.
@@Bettercallsaul316 Ok well take care and I don't know when you where last here in Raleigh but the rent is high and homeless is skyrocketing.Raleigh was a lot better 30 years ago.
Kinston has an up and coming Airline located here. Reminds me of what Downtown Beaufort used to look like until all the high functioning retirees moved in. Interstate 95 through North Carolina keeps expanding big time as well.
Beautiful, soft light and houses surrounded by greens. Minute 4.35 dog is barking in the distance. People are slowly getting on with their end-of day things. Peeling paint creates different textures and shades. I think the air is probably saturated and heavy. It's clearly not a rich or easy place but there is beauty... Thanks Charlie.
We pass by on the way to the beach . Locals-- what killed this town ? I know it floods real bad around there. The Sears in the deserted Mall looks haunted. Did you get a new car Bo ?
The truth? red lining , political practices rooted in racism, nepotism & good ol' boy culture. Places like this are a case study on what happens when Jim Crowe is still codified in local laws . The area of this town shown here is comparable to Nola's 9th ward & just as neglected by the local gov. The fact that you'll find likely locals in the coment pointing that " blacks" are kinda support my earlier point as well regarding racism.
@@finderoftruthknowerofsecre3429No, one of Kinston's biggest problems aside from flooding, was Surgarhill, the town's dirty little secret. Then after all of that the town was "blessed" with Lyman Grant, and his way of doing things. Neither of those had anything to do with racism. I'm not saying racism doesn't exist in Kinston because it clearly does, but its not the blame of Kinston's downfall.
Too many people and too few jobs. And the future looks worse. Demolish these tattered old housing units and build more public housing. Many vacant areas near the downtown area for public housing. Kinston has a new young Mayor and City Council who can clean this city up!
@@gmoneydogthang Probably not. Those titles usually come from people who aren't first generation high school or college students, people who grew up with two parents, etc.
Kinston, NC…..eastern north carolina’s “Detroit” …80% black. Still has a few sections left of nice homes…but only a few. Greenville & Kinston are the Greyhound express for drugs. They come from up north (NYC, Philly, Baltimore/D.C.) and most arrive in Kinston. Much of the product is distributed into G-ville (ECU college kids need their drugs!) and many people orbit G-ville to score when they’re jonesing for a buzz. Now, how would I know this information? 🤔
Not really, Kinston’s ghettos are isolated areas that can easily be avoided. The main problem with this town is the fact that there’s nothing really here.
Это тоже всё до первого торнадо: мотня на столбах, домики из говна и палок? П.с. бараки в конце видоса доставили - чистенькие такие, аккуратные, демократичные.

You only videoed East Kinston, I guess you forgot about West Kinston. You went up and down the same streets, just on different sides of the road! SMH!
Well you passed by where Reggie Bullock grew up!💪🏽 Kinston maybe small but there's a lot of greatness that was born and raised here!
Yes my home town and still here 41 yrs

Thank you 😂 he stayed in the trenches purposely I won’t even give em blocks he went to 3 hoods max: the curb, the bright, and the woo

My sister in law lives just east of there in Cove City. Recognized a few spots there. Not a bad town.

Somebody literally stayed in one small section, the worst one. Lol...every town has one of these.

A the time of 4:43, you are crossing Gordon St, to the right is a two story home that I lived in, in 1954/55.

Looks like some prime real estate there!

Do High Point, NC
Too big to be a small town.
My brother was killed in a car accident there in 97
Kinston does have a decent downtown,some nice residential areas I've seen worse.Stll they're trying.Real Estate is affordable though.
Da Kangz are doing it up nice!
Why is every black area a ghetto ???
Get yo lame ass on 😂
Not much to do after slavery fucks everything up 🤷🏿♂️
Same “favelas” from Brazil
Christ, that crunchy camera again.
What a nice safe vacation spot and also nice neighborhood to do door to door sales
It may not seem like it, but it seems very neighborly.
The actress Jaime Pressly is from Kinston, NC. The best-looking thing in Kinston ain’t there anymore!
She looks like Margot Robbie clone
