  • We took a bus tour up in the hills of the ritzy area of Ironshore in Montego Bay. Darn, we wish we had money to afford a piece of the land to nestle among these gorgeous homes and bountiful trees!

    Thanks for the upload. I was living in New York at the time I visited Ironshore. I did not want to go back to NYC.

      Lucky you!
      Beautiful place. The whole island is stunning!
      Unfortunately because of it's reputation of being a country with one of the world's highest crime rate, some people are a bit reluctant to visit the island. I wish they would stop the killings already because it's truly an amazing place and the people are just as incredibly beautiful and friendly.
      I will be visiting again next year. :)

    @ Kathy B your correct abt the crime its just too much, I suggest the country have seperate laws in each parishes just like America each state has its own laws crime would go down ,

    Well I just came back from ironshore n most of the homes are owned by doctors and lawyers. Very nice n affordable

  • @jamdawgutube
    @jamdawgutube Před 9 lety +14

    The lady asked if the homes are owned by Jamaicans. Why do Americans always ask the dumbest questions? And, how would the tour guide know who owns the houses? Did she ever hear about wealthy people in a country, even if the country is not economically well off as America? I would want to imagine that Jamaica is going to have very rich areas and very poor areas like most countries. I am sure she was expecting to see only thatched houses. It is unfathomable to think that Americans do ask us Jamaicans if we live on the beaches in thatched houses. How brilliant of all of you! The houses in New York, for example, are pale in comparison to the houses in Jamaica/the Caribbean for that matter. Ironshore houses are not eveb a match to some residential areas in Kingston and St Andrew and Mandeville. She would have gasped if she sees those houses.

      jamdawgutube Because we're suppose to be all poor. white foreigners hate seeing African and people of colour not only being prosperous but living a lifestyle they could only dream of, on one of the most beautiful places in the world, JAMAICA. Can't wait to make the final move back home. Working haaard, my goal end of 2015.Jamdown here I come.

      It was a polite way of not asking "Is this a white neighbourhood?", lol. Stayed there myself some years back. Beautiful region of JA on many levels.

    @expatlifestyle6069 Před 5 lety

    These homes are owned by Jamaicans. Some have traveled and other are owned by people who’ve never traveled. There are no real foreigners in ironshore in spite of what the so-called tour guides tell you..

  • @renysti
    @renysti Před 8 lety +3

    so you only thinks those houses are own by just layers & doctors, umm I have to laugh. FYI all kinds of people owns homes in ironshore,when you live in Jamaica you would know what goes on in jamaica,teacher,lawyers,doctors, tour drivers,business owners,employees & so on,most of these owner not just got house & land now,they got it from way back in the days,some of these owners are away abroad sending money to build their home & some simply leave their homes to families meanwhile they are away trying to make a dollar, yes it happens, jamaicans do what they have to do.the main dream for a jamaican is to have a big hous & fancy car,that's their dream
