I’ve lived in threes of these cities (Honolulu, Tacoma and Spokane). I never felt in any danger in Honolulu but the crime in Spokane shocked me.

Stunned that Bakersfield didn’t make the list.

I live in Vegas. Dont move here unless you have a job lined up or a transfer. They post that there are jobs, but good luck getting hired. We moved here 6 mos ago and still haven't been hired anywhere. Thank god at least for my husbands pension! Nick Johnson rocks! Love his channel too!

Eugene resident here. It was a decent place when I moved here in 2018. In 2020 it really went down the drain though. Homelessness, drugs, crime, and a rising cost of living ruined it. I drove around town yesterday, saw tents and garbage everywhere, and thought "this city looks like shit right now" 🤦

I live in Tacoma, WA... I have for 50 years. there are areas that are bad - the Hosmer area is the worst- there are also areas that aren't quite as bad. Or maybe I'm just numb to it...

I love when people go to Fresno and hang out in fig gardens and say wow it’s really nice here.

[KARW]

I nominate Vallejo, California for this list

I moved to Vegas from the east coast and really like it. In Florida and NY where I lived, everyone talked about how they did not like it. In Vegas, everyone I know talks about how amazing it is. It’s very underrated- lots of outdoors like Colorado without the crowds. The weather is great 50s, 60s, and 70s year round October - April. It is hot June-August, but dry heat and much better than Florida. Of course it matters which part of town you live in. Because the strip distracts everyone away from all the nature, it is one of the few places you can still get 5-star views without crowds. You have almost everything you want within a 5 minute drive. Great dining. No traffic like other places. The city is growing faster than you can think, so will be interesting to see how the stats change!

My aunt moved to Honolulu back in the late 70's. She always held down a job & managed to support herself until the mid 2000's. Her last job was working as a live-in caregiver for an elderly man for about 10+ years. When he passed away, his son saw how much home prices were skyrocketing so instead of renting out the house (& allowing my aunt to stay in her rented room as she was promised by his dad), he kicked her out & sold the place for a ridiculous amount. He didn't give her any sort of severance pay, bonus, or just a small monetary gift to say thanks for taking care of his dad (which he refused to do himself). So at the age of 65, she ended up homeless. We tried to intervene by sending her money & have her move into my parents' place in Monterey, CA but she refused to leave "her home". She cut all contact, lasted about 5 years longer, & died after being physically assaulted by another homeless person in January 2018. The police suspected that it was a robbery & she put up a fight to defend the few possessions she carried around in a suitcase. We didn't find out until months later, after she had already been cremated... It still upsets me to know that she lived there her entire adult life, worked, paid taxes, & ended up dying on the streets instead of in her own house or even a rented apartment.

I live in vegas and today it’s a beautiful sunny 60 degrees with not a chance of a tornado, hurricane, mudslide, blizzard or any natural disasters. 😘
I’ll be in my pool during the hot months. No humidity and mosquitoes is pretty sweet too.

Regardless of any other problems, Vegas is *not* running out of water anytime soon. It's actually one of the most water-efficient cities in the US, and does not even use all of its' minuscule allotment of 1.8% of water from the Colorado River (most of which goes to SoCal and Arizona). Las Vegas has a water intake below the deadpool level at Lake Mead - i.e., if the water dropped so low it stopped flowing over the Hoover Dam, Vegas would still get water. SoCal residents and farmers lose water (and power) before Vegas does.

I'm from Stockton. I had to look up the Kennedy neighborhood. It's the area that I would have called Sierra Vista. Maybe they changed the name. It was the ghetto. I went to college at SDSU and ended up working and retiring in the Silicon Valley. I've been back to Stockton to visit friends once in a while. My parents stayed in their home. Stockton was a divided city politically and economically.

Many people are moving out of Anchorage to the Mat Su Valley because land and taxes are less expensive. The Mat Su has grown by over 6, 000 people in the last few years.

[geebrewer]

these videos always make me laugh, great sense of humor included in them (the worst place to live in Tacoma is Tacoma). Was surprised to see Honolulu on this list. I know there is crime, but I always felt fairly safe in Waikiki, but haven't been there in a dozen years, so maybe things have changed.

[jameshaxby]

Tacoma is on the upswing as prosperous Seattle-ites are being pushed out.

[strategery]

I've been living in Las Vegas for 2 years now. It's so bad here I plan on staying :)

[lindasteller]

I live in Eugene. You're right this used to be a great city. We call west Eugene felony flats.

Briggs the reason why home prices are still rising in these cities is the housing shortage!
What’s causing the housing shortage is people that have homes with interest rates 4 percent or below are not selling their homes even if they relocate with their job they’re just renting them out cause interest rates are too high!
That’s what is causing the housing shortage!

Love the Diaz bros reference. Great video, as always 😊
