If u think this is bad look at Detroit neighborhoods

[@showmestatefinest5412]

Nobody said this was bad and there are 100s of videos on Detroit and I'm pretty sure most viewers seen a few. People always gotta compare one city to the other saying corny stuff like this is Beverly Hills compared to Philly etc but never been to a hood in real life

[@kb889]

Why does everyone focus on the worst neighborhoods in Oildale. I’d like to see someone share the rest of Oildale instead of focusing on the most poverty and where the bulk of tweakers roam. Although I will say this video is calm at the moment for the area driven through. Try closer to China Grade Loop.

[@MykelbeeGood]

ThankYou

[@CommanderCronus]

K B is right. Everything north of China Grade loop is fine. Just typical suburban neighborhoods.

[@jKLa]

@@CommanderCronus still largely pretty cruddy suburban neighborhoods though.
