- In this video, I head over to Martinsburg, WV, located along I-81 in the easternmost part of West Virginia (not far from Hagerstown, MD). Martinsburg is a city which lies within the Shenandoah Valley. In this video, I walk around the downtown area including a view of the Berkeley County Courthouse.
I always like 👍 martinsburg wv because it’s always peaceful and perfect 👍 weather for everything downtown there y’all!!
MY HOME TOWN!!! I miss it so much
Wow that church is Beautiful
i live here and some parts of it are nice the part where i live is nice
I lived in Martinsburg W.V. for about 4 months in early 1977. One thing I always remember about this place is people like yelling at pedestrians from cars. A weird habit that I haven`t seen anywhere else but here.🤔
Thankyou so much for video!😁
Thanks for watching! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
I live here and I love it
I live in southern West Virginia, a long way from Martinsburg.
Hello Bill! I now live in Martinsburg!
Oh Martinsburg... 😂 my dad is opening and art center in one of the buildings
Very cool!
lillie grace that’s so cool! I wanna check it out when it’s open!!!!
My dad used to own a tattoo shop in Martinsburg .... Over by where Hardee's , pizza hut and big lots is or was ... There was a strip club rt next door some perv used to own ... I used to live at 815 west Virginia Ave in Martinsburg
oh good more pretentious b.s from outsiders
Actually, we should have a drinking game where you have a shot every time he says "actually". Actually, you'd pass out long before the end of the video.
Pay Phones ?? Great ! I dont have one of those cultural addictions known as cell phones . .
6 years later, that pay phone isn’t there anymore lmao
Is the Hotel Shenandoah building still there? My late grandfather (1904-1992) was born in Hedgesville, lived in Chicago but came home to Martinsburg at retirement. I spent so much time there that I felt like it was my home. He was "Toad" Ross and he lived at 363 Boyd Ave.
To be honest, I am not sure. I see myself going back there at some point as I have ancestry in the Shenandoah Valley, so I always could check if I think of it!
Scottman895 Travel. Thank you!
Yes. They just renovated the Shenendoah and made it into fancy apartments. Looking good.
Same great sign all along the 5 stories, up the corner.
@@GOTTshua Thank you!
I should show people the real Martinsburg. We have a different perspective. Not so positive.
Crime?
Yeah it sucks here boring AF lol cement factories .. 5G towers toxic water and air .. nothing but junk food restaurants
William Beglen hip
@Retro_Afterglow It’s not the people from the area that are the problem. It’s people from Baltimore, Dc, and other areas that bring drugs and crime to this city and that’s what makes it so bad. One of the burgs nicknames is “little Baltimore” for a reason.
@@whiteiversonia2557 no its the locals as well I'm from Martinsburg the locals want to think they are from the city
I got motion sickness watching this video. A suggestion would be to move the camera slowly around instead of whipping it back and forth...really hard to watch!
Thank you for the comment. My camera handling back then was terrible compared to how I film newer videos. I've definitely improved on both stabilization and ensuring that I don't pan the camera too fast.
Are you from Martinsburg?
I am not, but I do have some family ancestry from the area.
THATS MY STREET
SAME LOL
I notice you didn't show the majority of the town, where almost everywhere else there is crime and dingy streets and apartments. OUtside downtown Martinsburg, its still a typical west virginia town. there are a LOT of hicks and bikers and construction workers and criminals that live there. There is a medium size prison there and a jail center also. There are some good things there.
Any idea what that City is off into the distance? I thought I saw a couple large buildings?
Do you remember what part of the video you saw those? For some reason, I cannot find them.
Scottman895 Travel my apologies... I meant to post that question on a drone video of Martinsburg, not this one. It was weird, it looked like a small skyline in the distance.
No worries!
You can see the East side of Martinsburg in the distance from the center of town. It's called "Irish Hill". It has an amazing cemetery with a George Washington era Masonic crypt in the center that looks right out of Dracula. We call one of the streets there Cat Town because it has quite a few strays (all well fed). Beautiful architecture of all kinds everywhere, and every era. A big creek with bridges divide the two sections of town, called Tuscarora Creek.
Now you know there is absolutely nothing to see or do here. Cannot wait until I retire and get the hell out of this hole.
My County.
It would have been better if he had held the camera steady and panned slower.
I go to that Library
I LIVE HERE!!!
Me too! West martin street and north high street
I live hear
I can tell
hows it sound.
Martinsburg would like to welcome a part time resident, Ms. Phyllis Nidiffer-Campbell. The residents here love their town and we want to say this year we truly cherish Phyllis' s presence here.
Really love this place, but he didnt really show the right perspective and that is the old county court house, not the new one
HE PASTED MY HOUSE
Should I move here?
Sandy Marie nope
I wouldn't few years back the cops shot a guy like 23 times when he was already on the ground so if you don't mind bad cops sure lol.
Or worrying about walkin on needles and dealin with druggies everyday, shit is not like this all the time this is rare frfr you walk past so many boarded up cribs
Sandy Marie no
This is a long way from where I live which is southern West Virginia.
West Virginia spreads out quite far!
"Let's Visit Martinsburg, WV." Alternatively, let's not.
No one goes to half the churches
If so, Sad . then thats half the problem . Nationwide as well Se no connection to the cultural slide or are you still that young ?
this is where I live it's garbage..
Lol. I did for about 5 years. Moved to Hedgesville. A lot better. Certain parts of Martinsburg are good tho.
i live here
PewDiePie lol hi still live here
PewDiePie i still live here
Can anyone tell me why it's a bad place to live? Video seems really nice.
