Somebody who knows nothing about Mobile comes in and drives around some of the poorest neighborhoods, then advises people to move across the bay or to Huntsville. Don't believe a word of it. Mobile is a charming, historic city with many beautiful areas, such as Midtown or Spring Hill. It's a great place to live with a great sense of place.
@@jessiemac4970 ummm mobile has been on first 48 since 2016. Not to mention honeykomb brazy grandparents house getting shot up and set on fire so you can miss me with that
@SirBaum you must can’t read.. I explained why it’s a shitty place. It’s not the same as it was in the 2000s it’s violent, poor as hell, nothing to see or do, the ppl are small minded
@SirBaum I wasn’t saying you were small minded. But a lot of people there are small minded Alabama has never been a state that’s big on change and growing the state and it’s cities
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS She was the head of the Prichard Water Board. Not a politician. Prichard is still a separate city from Mobile. She and her cronies used money brought in from people paying their water bills to live some extravagant lifestyle and it bit her in the ass.
I was born and raised in Mobile Al. There are very beautiful areas/homes in this city. I am sorry you didn't share them. You're sharing some of the worst areas.You should have went out west near the airport area. It's great to see my hometown! Government St. is a main drag a lot of historical homes ! ❤️❤️
I understand you might not be from the area, but all of the litter is because of the thousands and thousands of locals and tourist during Mardi Gras. A lot of it is thrown from floats.
Why don't you do research before trying to blast places you know nothing about.Prichard is not Mobile it is a city of its own that is located in Mobile County.i have been all over the United States and in 9 countries I can assure you I can name hundreds of places worst than Mobile and even Prichard.So before blasting any city please do research first

Mobile is an excellent city to visit. You need to drive in the better neighborhoods close to the beach area. I'm a New Yorker who relocated to the Atlanta area. Took a visit to Mobile and I was quite impressed. Stated in the Airpirt area and I enjoyed every minute. My opinion, I would move to Mobile in a Heart beat. Very Nice!
i was born and raised here in Mobile and i Love where come from because Mobile is such a historic place to live and a lot of history has been made here
I like your content but don't disrespect Mobile like that, they have problems like most cities do yes there are a lot of bad neighborhoods but there are plenty of nice places also i lived in Mobile in the mid late 90s it has changed a lot no doubt, but it is a beautiful city.
Noooo. They don't say Mardi Gras began in Mobile, it actually did, right down Dauphin Street. And we don't envy New Orleans, we don't appreciate that they lie and claim they started it. It's a matter of respect.
Prichard, Alabama is not Mobile, Alabama..It is how ever Mobile County.. Had you went straight through the tunnel you would have been in Mobile Alabama... Downtown Mobile where the court house is..Your going the wrong way to get to Prichard Alabama. Should have went 1 65 to get to Prichard.If you looking in the slums to show people Mobile Alabama that's just wrong of you to give people that impression of Mobile Alabama.. Try the other side of Mobile Alabama not the slums!!!
I'm sure you know this Jose, but Pritchard is actually a suburb of Mobile (not part of Mobile proper). It declined catastrophically due to deindustrialization, corruption, and a process first triggered by the aftermath of conflict from post Jim Crow race relations...
I liked going through the tunnel on way to see the USS Alabama museum ship where also is displayed the USS Drum, a World War Two submarine and also tanks, aircraft, and other military equipment and vehicles. Nice drive from Jacksonville.
I'm from Atlanta but my family is from Mobile. You actually passed my grandma house when you were riding down Houston st. To anyone who hasn't been, please check it out during Mardi Gras. Also, it would've been dope if you would've stopped and talked to some of the locals.
Love the view driving on the bridge at the start of the video! Mobile is I believe the eastern most major Mardi Gras city, as it started as a french town, though today it has far less of a french influence overall then southern Louisiana or even coastal Mississippi. It's a beautiful city though and a shame that so much of it is falling apart..
Mardi gras started here. And crime has drown the city.. along with govt corruption.. the prichard waterboard jus got hit by the feds.. them fools had hundreds of thoysands of dollars worth of fraudulent charges on their cards..
What is this dude talking about? There is so much wrong with this video and portrayal of Mobile that I would have a hard time trusting any other content on his page.
This was an absolutely horrible video! Uninformed and totally misguided. Comments like, "I think they're having Mardi Gras." You think? Shouldn't you have KNOWN this before you decided to drive around? And, "I guess people in Alabama way of partying is littering." It's freaking Mardi Gras!! The next time you come to a city, at least try to do a little research before giving advice.
Hey I moved from Mobile Alabama, and I honestly missed and moved back. Missed the history and living on the coast.. I only lasted 2 years being away before I moved back
I live in Houston where they litter all over like nooooo tomorrow! I miss Alabama also and we are planning to move back eventually!! Mobile does not litter as nearly as much as Houstonians.
You notice they never go to the good parts of mobile always the bad parts then shoot a video I have been to Pensacola and Baldwin County and its not better at all
Exactly Tee Daphne have corner stores just like in Prichard but the people who live in Daphne think people from Mobile are beneath them. Daphne is no better
I was really expecting a post apocalyptic wasteland city based on you initial intro/remarks. I'm sure Mobile has its challenges as a lot of city's in the US have but I really was expecting you all to be ducking from bullets as you were driving in. Enjoyed the video.
I lived there for a lot of years I can tell you that the government and the court system and just everything involved with the officials in Mobile county is just so corrupt it's awful
I know a good real estate lawyer. But what sucks if you buy, they can reverse the sale within 2 years. So you can get comfy and even make property upgrades and legally have to give the property back to the seller.
Thanks Jose, I know what your saying but living here in SW Florida in Lehigh 10 years from Miami since 1972 and its gotten expensive but also no way to even compete to buy anything thanks to the investors swallowing everything up. I told you in my last post to that Lehigh at night video that I was looking to move to Alabama and its not that I want it, its that I don't have any other choice because its cheaper but also because there are houses that I might still have a chance at getting into and renting while would be awesome and best for my sick mom and I and my husband but we have 2 big dogs and some kitties and no one wants to rent to as many pets as I have and they want more rent, etc.. for each of them on top of asking crazy high prices. My landlord is selling this house I am in, we weren't give a chance and while I have been saving and did all to get my excellent credit where it is and all that I wasn't yet prepared to qualify for what I was going to try and get lending for and now out of nowhere this man says he is selling and he in a market where the other home here he sold, he listed and it sold in not even 14 days. I've only been to Phenix AL. I would drive up and visit Columbus, GA often from 2018 - 2019. I was looking to move there near Ft Benning and happened to go over and look in Phenix because I wanted a home with land and there really isn't that in Columbus. Anyway I appreciate the videos you have been posting. I guess it was fate I found you the night I did. Your driving around at least gives me a better idea of what I will be getting into somewhat. Tips of what to check on also. I am looking higher up, you did mention Huntsville, also central areas. But whenever I can find a roof that isn't caving in on at least 1 bedroom I can keep my mom and animals safe in I have to go. We will be homeless otherwise. I love when you say Y'all. I know you're Cuban like my husband and he like you speaks perfect english but has that somewhat Southern accent behind it LOL If you live here in Lehigh I would love to meet you and your lady in person one day before I leave here. Not sure how mcuh time I have though. I am not trying to be a sitting tenant and giving my landlord any trouble getting out from this house so he can fix it and sell it. I've been a great ontime paying tenant who fixed his house over the 10 years in it and I sure don't need any legal issues or eviction on my record moving forward.
They got rents in sebring and Avon park for $900-1200. Sebring probally has more things than lehigh sadly. Lake wales also has cheap rents its a little more hood. I felt exactly the way you do trust me but alabama was a mistake. Its cheap for a reason. Tallahassee has cheap rents too. Ocala has cheap rents in the SW area which is kinda hood but if your poor you will be okay. I an young and dumb so i make a better target from criminals if you look poor its easier. I would go for those options first. They RUN you out of alabama.. imagine caring for an elderly person and than your neighbors being evil towards you at the same time. Trust me you can regret alabama. I had money to protect myself if i was poor i would be dead or in jail
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS I don't see rents that cheap anywhere even there in nothing here land LOL Yes I know cheap for a reason. I sure don't look poor I drive a Chrysler 300S that is fully loaded all leather guts. Not the Hemi but still nice just the same, and I earn an okay living just not okay in these times with the market the way it is. Cheap rents are going as fast as cheap well worth homes with maybe just some cosmetic flaws and things that people don't see which sellers can get away with selling the home with and even an inspector or appraiser won't see. I'm being run out of Lehigh, was run out of Miami from Criminals and so what more could I and my 81 year mother with cancer endure? Why the heck not...homelessness for someone like myself who has never been homeless, work so hard and thought I was middle class isn't an option but there aren't any other options today.
I summered in Prichard and grew up in Birdsville Projects...I love my memories, yet it is a lifestyle my kids would never understand or probably make it through. 😂
Also saw something posted from you in a notification but clicked on it and then it said it was private. Wondering now if that is the other video you were talking about checking out at the end of this one?
I couldn't watch this video in its entirety because I felt exploitation of particular communities to favor such false claims you speak of. Who are the " good people" who were ran out of Prichard? It seems like you are not from either city to advise, but I respect it's your video and you received a view...
Working in law enforcement for 30 years and retired now. I grew up vacationing in Tuskegee Alabama my dad hometown and I love the south, as I am born and raised in Wisconsin. Every state has its unsafe areas, that doesn't make the whole county terrible. There are some nice areas in Mobile. Just like Huntsville, Montgomery, Foley has not so good areas. Just do ur research. Come here to Milwaukee, I live in a very nice and diverse neighborhood neighborhood, but I can show u areas here I wouldn't send a cat to 🤷🏾♀️
Please don’t down grade Mobile not every place here is bad Prichard is bad and downtown areas are but out West Mobile is better and there is a lot of places that is nice to live iam sure that’s the case in all other States
Sonja Bryant & don’t downgrade Prichard either it’s plenty of good people that came from Prichard & Mobile got bad & good places just like any other city
Prichard is a far nicer than many drug ridden communities in the Seattle area, I don't see really any issues with this area from what I see. I see newer cars, people out walking actively, children outside. Just a lower income area, I didn't see any homeless camps in this video, campers parked for blocks, people shitting on the sidewalk or shooting up. You guys in the south still have it good in the worst neighborhoods.
@@nomiddlenamenmn427 I originally thought so as well, then after living there for over 30 years. I moved to Alabama. Beautiful, warm and very affordable, the pressures of making enough money aren’t as near as stressful in AL just to live. It’s a different kind of living here that is more relaxed.
I just moved from Olympia WA to the eastern shore to Fairhope AL but I was in Mobile yesterday. You are right it’s wayyyy better living here then anywhere along I-5. I grew up in Olympia and went to Seattle many many times. It use to be nice until the libs went full retard. P.S. nobody goes to Prichard. There is crime over there.
You passed by the bend off residence alongside the Jimmy residence I used to live right there across the street from the bend off residence right there at 8:59 and until I moved here to ringle no Shreveport and that neighborhood is the best neighborhood you can get out there it's the best it was Gloria works at the gas station
Come to mobile and see for yourself that's not even half of mobile.this guy didn't even know why the tunnel was closed!! Everyone from mobile knows it's Mardi gras
I really like your videos but have to admit you are very incorrect on a lot of your facts. Plus all your drives have been through the worst parts of Mobile every time. Also I have been to many parts of the US and there are way far worse places than Prichard. Mobile has some of the country best historical architecture you will not find anywhere else. Plus Baldwin is considered Mobile metro. Just curious what city are you from? Thought you said Montgomery. Anyway keep up the videos enjoy watching. Just wish you would have gone to other places of Mobile besides the few bad streets.
I’m a huge fan of his channel.. but he missed most of Mobile… he does have a few Mobile videos that are decent. Also Prichard is not Mobile Alabama, it’s just in the same county. You need to drive around Springhill or west Mobile and more of midtown. Also Mardi grass last almost 2 months long . Mobile is the greatest city of all time. “IN MY OPINION “ lol
I lived in Wildwood heights from 1971-1986 . You could have your door unlocked and you were safe at night. Now the house are run down and windows boarded up. We use to have yard of the. Month you would have a sign with a big blue ribbon on it and your house and name in the paper. Take university Blvd get off at panama Blvd turn on Catalina and then on satacoy look at the abandoned house with 2 trees in front yard. That was my house I lived in. Both my parents killed them self in the 1 st bedroom facing the street. It's been abandoned since 1997.
I've been here all my life and watching your video for the first time, I was praying you weren't SHOT in the high crime districts you drove thru, like Duvall st., Houston st., Broad st. All those places were my stomping grounds in the '70's and early '80's. The Wallace Tunnel was my very first Company job as a welder which my dad was over all the welding that was done on the tunnel. My mother launched the 2nd section of of it behind Lurleen Wallace, the wife of George Wallace who launched the first section. You may want to learn where these high crime areas are, on your next excursion before endangering yourself and the young lady with you. I wish you two the best.
The way it was explained to me is that decades before any of us were born there were businesses in Prichard that thrived and continued forward into what would be our childhoods. Then economic issues and epidemics moved in and the businesses bottomed out. In those same spots there are lots or shells left from those businesses. Now how severely you describe Prichard is not my experience. The optics are an issue. The inconveniences too. But it's danger level is not troubling to me like that. Or maybe I'm so tough as nails so it doesn't phase me. The thing that throws me off is ghetto ppl. Outside of that, I was never bothered when there. It was usually pretty quiet.
first gas station stop is a block away from my house now im watching to see if i show up in your video 😂😂😂 Update: at 29:27 you end on the same street my house is 😮
I have seen more of Alabama than you ever will in your lifetime. the only area I have not gone to is the extremes NW corner 3 counties up there I missed in my travels. i spent an entire year traveling that state seeing everything. Its the top 5 most beautiful places on the east coast.. its not the natural beauty thats an issue its a pretty place.. its the racist backwards people there that ruin it with their hate and litter. I know places in alabama that not even the people from there know. you ever been to the hidden waterfalls in elmore county? the cahaba river natural preserve? seen the tallest point in the state?

Hi I just subscribed, Mobile has both good and bad parts. The hoods are closer to downtown Mobile and the safer parts are farther west. Mobile population was 202k now it's 186k.
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS there are plenty of nice areas in Mobile, you’re just not showing them in your video. Plus, the Eastern Shore in Baldwin County is only 10-15 minutes away.
This video is completely misleading. Mobile is a great place. You just selectively chose the worst parts to film. What you did is like going to a nice restaurant, and judging the food from what you pulled from the trash

The audacity of this out of towner to come in our citiy & neighborhoods & low grade us because a certain area is impoverished stricken. And there's good people who lives in those areas. And there's other area that are upscale & very nice. Like I said he's a out of towner don't know what he's talking about. Trying to get views. Mobile is good living💯
"Good people huh" lol I think I know what he meant. I was raised in Mobile stayed there for 15 years and like any City there's good there's bad. Prichard not because it's a bad area, but like mobile is suffers from poverty. Anywhere where there'sa high poverty level you're going to have crime. Bring new jobs to the area and it will be fine. Mobile is one of the oldest cities in America people don't give its due. It must be those good people.
You can drive through any mid to large sized city anywhere in the country and find bad neighborhoods. This video is pointless as is the creator of this video. We recently moved to the Mobile area from Florida and it is the best move we ever made. Period. Share something positive... so much good here to see here.
Somebody who knows nothing about Mobile comes in and drives around some of the poorest neighborhoods, then advises people to move across the bay or to Huntsville. Don't believe a word of it. Mobile is a charming, historic city with many beautiful areas, such as Midtown or Spring Hill. It's a great place to live with a great sense of place.

I've only been to Phenix AL. I would drive up and visit Columbus, GA often from 2018 - 2019. I was looking to move there near Ft Benning and happened to go over and look in Phenix because I wanted a home with land and there really isn't that in Columbus. Anyway I appreciate the videos you have been posting. I guess it was fate I found you the night I did. Your driving around at least gives me a better idea of what I will be getting into somewhat. Tips of what to check on also. I am looking higher up, you did mention Huntsville, also central areas. But whenever I can find a roof that isn't caving in on at least 1 bedroom I can keep my mom and animals safe in I have to go. We will be homeless otherwise. I love when you say Y'all. I know you're Cuban like my husband and he like you speaks perfect english but has that somewhat Southern accent behind it LOL If you live here in Lehigh I would love to meet you and your lady in person one day before I leave here. Not sure how mcuh time I have though. I am not trying to be a sitting tenant and giving my landlord any trouble getting out from this house so he can fix it and sell it. I've been a great ontime paying tenant who fixed his house over the 10 years in it and I sure don't need any legal issues or eviction on my record moving forward.
They got rents in sebring and Avon park for $900-1200. Sebring probally has more things than lehigh sadly. Lake wales also has cheap rents its a little more hood. I felt exactly the way you do trust me but alabama was a mistake. Its cheap for a reason. Tallahassee has cheap rents too. Ocala has cheap rents in the SW area which is kinda hood but if your poor you will be okay. I an young and dumb so i make a better target from criminals if you look poor its easier. I would go for those options first. They RUN you out of alabama.. imagine caring for an elderly person and than your neighbors being evil towards you at the same time. Trust me you can regret alabama. I had money to protect myself if i was poor i would be dead or in jail
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS I don't see rents that cheap anywhere even there in nothing here land LOL Yes I know cheap for a reason. I sure don't look poor I drive a Chrysler 300S that is fully loaded all leather guts. Not the Hemi but still nice just the same, and I earn an okay living just not okay in these times with the market the way it is. Cheap rents are going as fast as cheap well worth homes with maybe just some cosmetic flaws and things that people don't see which sellers can get away with selling the home with and even an inspector or appraiser won't see. I'm being run out of Lehigh, was run out of Miami from Criminals and so what more could I and my 81 year mother with cancer endure? Why the heck not...homelessness for someone like myself who has never been homeless, work so hard and thought I was middle class isn't an option but there aren't any other options today.
You should have got a tour guide because you totally missed the mark on a full and accurate video of Mobile.
We have done many videos of this town already
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS Your commentary screams that you don't know the geography of the metro area thus that makes this video not accurate.
I summered in Prichard and grew up in Birdsville Projects...I love my memories, yet it is a lifestyle my kids would never understand or probably make it through. 😂
The chevron gas station you stopped at is the neighborhood I grew up in. That's the bay area but us locals call it down the bay. Broad/Duval
Dtb Big Manya
Also saw something posted from you in a notification but clicked on it and then it said it was private. Wondering now if that is the other video you were talking about checking out at the end of this one?
Pritchard is in Mobile county. It is not in Mobile. Pritchard is its own city.
So basically you drive thru the black neighborhoods and advise people to not move here? Tfoh with that bs.
Very colorful neighborhoods. Not black. I believe these were thriving before the interstate made them obsolete
This guy is SO uninformed
I couldn't watch this video in its entirety because I felt exploitation of particular communities to favor such false claims you speak of. Who are the " good people" who were ran out of Prichard? It seems like you are not from either city to advise, but I respect it's your video and you received a view...
Working in law enforcement for 30 years and retired now. I grew up vacationing in Tuskegee Alabama my dad hometown and I love the south, as I am born and raised in Wisconsin. Every state has its unsafe areas, that doesn't make the whole county terrible. There are some nice areas in Mobile. Just like Huntsville, Montgomery, Foley has not so good areas. Just do ur research. Come here to Milwaukee, I live in a very nice and diverse neighborhood neighborhood, but I can show u areas here I wouldn't send a cat to 🤷🏾♀️
Please don’t down grade Mobile not every place here is bad Prichard is bad and downtown areas are but out West Mobile is better and there is a lot of places that is nice to live iam sure that’s the case in all other States
Sonja Bryant & don’t downgrade Prichard either it’s plenty of good people that came from Prichard & Mobile got bad & good places just like any other city
SORRY BUT DOWNTOWN BIRMINGHAM IS VERY NICE!
Prichard is a far nicer than many drug ridden communities in the Seattle area, I don't see really any issues with this area from what I see. I see newer cars, people out walking actively, children outside. Just a lower income area, I didn't see any homeless camps in this video, campers parked for blocks, people shitting on the sidewalk or shooting up. You guys in the south still have it good in the worst neighborhoods.
I respectfully disagree. Overall, Washington is a much better state than Alabama in my opinion.
@@nomiddlenamenmn427 I originally thought so as well, then after living there for over 30 years. I moved to Alabama. Beautiful, warm and very affordable, the pressures of making enough money aren’t as near as stressful in AL just to live. It’s a different kind of living here that is more relaxed.
I just moved from Olympia WA to the eastern shore to Fairhope AL but I was in Mobile yesterday. You are right it’s wayyyy better living here then anywhere along I-5. I grew up in Olympia and went to Seattle many many times. It use to be nice until the libs went full retard. P.S. nobody goes to Prichard. There is crime over there.
You passed by the bend off residence alongside the Jimmy residence I used to live right there across the street from the bend off residence right there at 8:59 and until I moved here to ringle no Shreveport and that neighborhood is the best neighborhood you can get out there it's the best it was Gloria works at the gas station
That life was fun and easy that is the real south life
You drove around some of the worst neighborhoods! You should be ashamed of yourself! Mobile is a beautiful place. I will be glad to show you around!
You mean baldwin county? Thats not mobile. Towns a dump. And those are NOT the worst parts.. ive seen the worst parts of movil .. disgusting Prichard
Come to mobile and see for yourself that's not even half of mobile.this guy didn't even know why the tunnel was closed!! Everyone from mobile knows it's Mardi gras
Just moved from Colorado to mobile cmon now your just hating on the city...
If you want to see a bad neighborhood go to the Alabama Village
☺️ thanks
Prichard area yeah we went there scary
Which is in Prichard
I really like your videos but have to admit you are very incorrect on a lot of your facts. Plus all your drives have been through the worst parts of Mobile every time. Also I have been to many parts of the US and there are way far worse places than Prichard. Mobile has some of the country best historical architecture you will not find anywhere else. Plus Baldwin is considered Mobile metro. Just curious what city are you from? Thought you said Montgomery. Anyway keep up the videos enjoy watching. Just wish you would have gone to other places of Mobile besides the few bad streets.
I’m a huge fan of his channel.. but he missed most of Mobile… he does have a few Mobile videos that are decent. Also Prichard is not Mobile Alabama, it’s just in the same county. You need to drive around Springhill or west Mobile and more of midtown. Also Mardi grass last almost 2 months long . Mobile is the greatest city of all time. “IN MY OPINION “ lol
I lived in Wildwood heights from 1971-1986 . You could have your door unlocked and you were safe at night. Now the house are run down and windows boarded up. We use to have yard of the. Month you would have a sign with a big blue ribbon on it and your house and name in the paper. Take university Blvd get off at panama Blvd turn on Catalina and then on satacoy look at the abandoned house with 2 trees in front yard. That was my house I lived in. Both my parents killed them self in the 1 st bedroom facing the street. It's been abandoned since 1997.
Go to any large cities inner-city..You'll see the same thing!
I've been here all my life and watching your video for the first time, I was praying you weren't SHOT in the high crime districts you drove thru, like Duvall st., Houston st., Broad st. All those places were my stomping grounds in the '70's and early '80's. The Wallace Tunnel was my very first Company job as a welder which my dad was over all the welding that was done on the tunnel. My mother launched the 2nd section of of it behind Lurleen Wallace, the wife of George Wallace who launched the first section. You may want to learn where these high crime areas are, on your next excursion before endangering yourself and the young lady with you. I wish you two the best.
why would they shoot that kid ?
His fist stop in my hood down the bay
Born in theodore basically mobile
Every thing is cheaper in Alabama.
Life is what you make it...everywhere. 😮 .1 question,, why u in Alabama if things didn't go right for u. ?
because i can
The way it was explained to me is that decades before any of us were born there were businesses in Prichard that thrived and continued forward into what would be our childhoods. Then economic issues and epidemics moved in and the businesses bottomed out. In those same spots there are lots or shells left from those businesses.
Now how severely you describe Prichard is not my experience. The optics are an issue. The inconveniences too. But it's danger level is not troubling to me like that. Or maybe I'm so tough as nails so it doesn't phase me. The thing that throws me off is ghetto ppl. Outside of that, I was never bothered when there. It was usually pretty quiet.
Mobile is New Orleans baby Brother I have realitives there
Riding thru gentrification acting like it's the vibrant part of the city lol 😆
Worst about Mobile is the drivers and I never see cops
The best weather in Alabama? This dude is off his rocker.
I'd move there just for the deep fried Oreos..word:)))
Where are you from Dude? You speak of what you know not!!! Poor Video Asinine Audio😝
first gas station stop is a block away from my house now im watching to see if i show up in your video 😂😂😂
Update: at 29:27 you end on the same street my house is 😮
Dang 🤣🤣🤣 thanks for watching
Ya never hear much about the 2.6% in our nation the Native Americans. They are the most discriminated against. 👍
I dealth with Native Americans In Alabama with klan ties they we dangerous
Now who in they right mind wanna move to Alabama ?? 😭

CHEAPER COST OF LIVING...
I'm coming from Michigan

I’m from mobile Al and I must say that place is pure EVIL! I moved to Florida with $50 and never looked back
WHAT PART OF FLORIDA
#251shiiit
I had been in west mobile, Alabama and it's beautiful, you don't really know the nice places in Alabama. Don't show the worst side of the State.
I have seen more of Alabama than you ever will in your lifetime. the only area I have not gone to is the extremes NW corner 3 counties up there I missed in my travels. i spent an entire year traveling that state seeing everything. Its the top 5 most beautiful places on the east coast.. its not the natural beauty thats an issue its a pretty place.. its the racist backwards people there that ruin it with their hate and litter. I know places in alabama that not even the people from there know. you ever been to the hidden waterfalls in elmore county? the cahaba river natural preserve? seen the tallest point in the state?
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS as a youtuber or whatever you're called, that's not a polite answer to any person. My friend and her family live there more than 16 years and they live in a nice area, luxury house in west mobile. I live in Orlando fl, I don't know about you, but try to be more realistic and professional at the time to inform about something. Thank you!!!..
I agree Jacqueline, he just had a horrible experience in Alabama for no reason.
Who is this guy?
i know someone who isnt related in Alabama is an odd thing to see
Came from nyc i hate here😢
Hi I just subscribed, Mobile has both good and bad parts. The hoods are closer to downtown Mobile and the safer parts are farther west. Mobile population was 202k now it's 186k.
Speak the truth Albert. He should have went out near the Airport or Ziegler
SO PEOPLE ARE MOVING OUT? WHY
I had to move from San Diego to Mobile Alabama against my own will but working on moving back to California
yeah Alabama is Horrible. I lived there, glad I left. You become a savage like them eventually
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS yeah as a black person it’s kinda true. To many shootings, gang members and more I can’t stand it. I’m glad you left. You lucky
It’s scary bc I live here 😳
He had not to say good 😮 yet you here
The nice streets in Mobile are also real.
There is no nice side to mobile. Baldwin county is too far
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS there are plenty of nice areas in Mobile, you’re just not showing them in your video. Plus, the Eastern Shore in Baldwin County is only 10-15 minutes away.
Prichard like a baby New Orleans it goes down in Prichard & Prichard makes up for at least 75% of Mobile’s murder rate
How dare you! New Orleans has cultural center and food and tourism. Alabama.. crime and dirty diapers
This video is completely misleading. Mobile is a great place. You just selectively chose the worst parts to film.
What you did is like going to a nice restaurant, and judging the food from what you pulled from the trash
If i wanted to show the worst i would have gone to Prichard.. that whole city is a racists dump
@@FLORIDAHOODVLOGS how is it racist?
Eu amei de verdade, conhecer um pouco desta cidade e paisagem maravilhosa. Parabéns sempre pelo canal e o conteúdo. Um grande abraço daqui do Brasil, São Paulo. Nelson.
ALABAMA nao e bom.. FLORIDA, assim e! abraco daqui FLORIDA ! Jose
i can see them building mobile skyline over the years it looks needed lol
You are completely wrong about mobile
The audacity of this out of towner to come in our citiy & neighborhoods & low grade us because a certain area is impoverished stricken. And there's good people who lives in those areas. And there's other area that are upscale & very nice. Like I said he's a out of towner don't know what he's talking about. Trying to get views. Mobile is good living💯
0:14 Yo what's the point in blurring those posts ?
how do y’all feel about Mexicans in good ol MobilE
We don't care if you are a Mexican or not
Huh?
As long as they come legally then be my guest, but if illegal then absolutely not.
I have relatives that live in Mobile
One sided
Nothing like home .,.but Ohio is interesting
"Good people huh" lol I think I know what he meant. I was raised in Mobile stayed there for 15 years and like any City there's good there's bad. Prichard not because it's a bad area, but like mobile is suffers from poverty. Anywhere where there'sa high poverty level you're going to have crime. Bring new jobs to the area and it will be fine. Mobile is one of the oldest cities in America people don't give its due. It must be those good people.
You can drive through any mid to large sized city anywhere in the country and find bad neighborhoods. This video is pointless as is the creator of this video. We recently moved to the Mobile area from Florida and it is the best move we ever made. Period. Share something positive... so much good here to see here.
Thats what I thought after moving to Montgomery… a year later we found out what it was.. you will too eventually
At 20:30 you keep saying too much litter but it mardi gras season 😂 when you went so you probably came after a parade 😂
Saraland is quite. But don't move here, June, July, Aug, September, October, November are HUMID AND HOT! Just saying
You need to learn all you can about mobile county before you pass undo judgement on our city. One thing that happened is you drove here. Go home!
Theres nothing to learn from a civil war relic
What’s funny I’m driving thru PA now .. All G.. MOB
We aren't as rinkydink as you think we are. I been here all my life and there's other places than where you went.
I lived in Alabama, i seen what yall do
