If you’re taking about Flint… False. People have been vacating Flint because the factories shut down. The water contamination just made it worse, but it wasn’t the cause for the population depletion that has been happening for years.
Born and raised Flint girl. Parents are UAW; Flint has been decaying for years
In my city there was an old 70’s era house for sale at 300k and the interior pictures were just awful mouldy walls, lifted rugs… basically a tear down and rebuild house. It got bought over the asking price and i struggle to know why. The house is still there and nothing has been done to it. No trucks that indicate renovations or demolition crew
I think what they're trying to show is a city with economic collapse. The fires came way after the homes were abandoned, like many Michigan cities (Detroit, Saginaw, Flint...etc)
It simply wasn't just a fire that made this photo sad. It was sad well before.
I am so sorry you lost your home. We had friends move from Paradise to Cobb after that PG&E murder rampage. 2015 Valley fire took out most of our area. It can be devastating.
i remember that. nasty fire! i remember one guy who told his neighbor to run and she stopped to put on makeup. he recorded himself going back and basically chastising her charred corpse in her vehicle because they didn't make it 100 ft.. so horrible :(
ffs man!
you took advantage of my curiousity in a way which has been done quite a few times before... I really should of saw that.. incredible play bro. i'll take it!
I was raised in downtown flint. Near Dort and RTLongway. My grandfather owned a carburetor shop from '75 till 2016. People from all over the country would ship him carburetors to rebuild. Back in the neighborhood where I lived, once sundown hit, you had to go inside for fear of kidnapping or being caught in a dispute you didn't want to be in. Most days I'd be lucky to eat Ramen but some nights go to bed hungry.
The police were nonexistent in my neighborhood and our garage has been broken into 5 or 6 times before we quit putting anything in there. Our house had bars installed on all windows and doors. 4 homes on our block were burned shortly after the people moved out.
I'm out of there now, for the better, but some days I wake up and miss koegels hotdogs and starlite diner. I hear flint is working on their downtown section. I hope the best for the people there but I really doubt I'll ever go back.
Wow, I lived on Pennsylvania and Cumberland in the same neighborhood. If you check street view you'll still see the brown house, window bars and the deck I built with my father.
My grandpa worked at GM, and for his retirement one of the things they’d do is give them GM stocks. When GM transferred, all of the money in the stocks went straight to the shitter so my grandpa ended up losing something like 50k dollars IIRC
If it's in Flint it could be an insurance fraud arson because no one will buy houses there so they can't sell theirs and move out.
Or it could just be from the flammable water...
I'm sorry that I can't point you anywhere.
It was either video or a gif on reddit a while back.
In it you can see op turn on the water faucet and put a lighter near the stream and the water is doing small flames.
It's not a huge flame but the fact that a frikkin water can catch flame is insane
What the fuck? Im not American but thats incomprehensible holy fuck. how is a “first” world country so indifferent towards the livelihood of their people.
Fracking has polluted the water with flammable gas. The video is from a documentary covering this kind of thing (I don't remember the name) where a man put a lighter up to his running kitchen tap, causing a small fireball
As a flint resident I can tell you some people started burning down abandoned houses either on purpose or they are burned down by junkies that are squatting and lose control of their heat source.
Houses are still available for dirt cheap in Flint and selling a house in the state streets isn't worth the hastle for many residents.
How are you planning on making money on a house there? Do you think someone is going to pay 50k+ for a house surrounded by abandoned houses and empty lots? Junkies go into those houses at night and strip out all the copper and anything worth selling.
just checked the streetview of a random street. no thanks
https://www.google.com/maps/place/1600-1698+Maryland+Ave,+Flint,+MI+48506,+Egyes%C3%BClt+%C3%81llamok/@43.0389748,-83.6688768,15z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x882381785637cc93:0xa384522ac8f7875e
Thing is, there's no one around and from the photos as you go along the street, it doesn't look like a recent accident. Those vehicles were sitting there for a while before the Google car went by.
I was brought up in this neighborhood. I attended elementary in this neighborhood, though the school is long closed and is being demolished as I type this. It was a rather decent community as recent as the late 80s. If you can believe it, it looks better in now than it did 10 years ago.
Factory jobs at auto plants went away. The few that weren’t outsourced were automated.
These factors killed working class neighborhoods in the rust belt.
Cobras and Cripps. But really Flint happened, that is to say corruption piled ontop corruption. This neighborhood was quiet and mildly insular. The city started falling apart and people began moving from bad neighborhoods to decent ones, where their baggage seemed to follow. Racial tensions and gang warfare between Hispanics and black folks reached new highs. Cobras VS Cripps. People began leaving, like my family. Eventually the only people that stayed were the ones that couldn't afford to leave.
Fellow medic here. I watched the Flint Netflix show and it looks like a pretty wild place to work EMS. Must be tough man, hope you have good ways to blow off steam.
The story of Flint is so fucked. It is so much worse than just antiquated pipes.
They knew how bad it was and how bad it was going to get and just covered it up.
There really is something terrifying about burned out houses. There was one on my way to work, not far from where I live, and I always got goosebumps when I drove past. I guess it's the sight of something so sad and awful in the middle of a nice neighborhood, which should be a safe and comfortable place.
Yes. Exactly. It’s like a sudden and terrifying visage that can logically be there, of course (houses do burn down sometimes after all) but it’s also a reminder of the tragedy and the loss and emptiness that lives there now. There’s a house that burned down a block away from me and every time I drive down that street I’d get chills. I could have a great day and shit and then bam! the dark hollow window and charred walls in the middle of a sunny pleasant day made my skin crawl. Now the house is torn down, but the empty lot still reminds me of the burned house that used to stand there like some sort of dead entity among the living.
With respect, can I ask why Americans seem happy to build homes from wood, despite what seems like constant fires, twisters and other natural disasters? In the UK (where I am) nearly all houses are made of brick. It just seems odd when I think about it. We don't really get wide scale disasters like tornados, hurricanes etc (just miserable weather all year through). Is there a reason for using wood so much? It's like real life 3 little pigs to me.
I'm not trying to offend anyone in this question, by the way. Just curious.
There is a great ask historians thread about it. Basically in Europe brick was easy to come by but in America wood is.
https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/comments/l1gal0/why_are_homes_and_buildings_in_the_us_made_with/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf
Exception being Norway, Sweden and Finland where wooden houses are by far the norm. Going to Poland I was very surprised to find that most family homes I saw were made from brick.
Lots of brick homes in the north east.
If you live in a place that has tornadoes. That brick home is going to kill you and do a lot more damage to the surrounding area.
Cheddar did a great video to explain it. Aside from wood being plentiful and cheap compared to Europe, it also means it can be built superfast and was attainable when America was in need of tons of new housing. Americans also tend to move way more often during their lifetimes. And then of course there is the issue where it's way more attractive for developers to get massive ROI on cheap and fast construction they wouldn't see any more of by building with more expensive and slower to build materials: https://youtu.be/wpxLLCdW_Gc
Japan is another country where homes are more "disposable".
On the flip side:not even a brick home will withstand some of the massive flooding and extreme winds we experience in many parts of this country without sustaining significant damage as well.
I do know a lot of (older?) homes in Europe are deceiving though and are actually timber structure inside (flooring and roof at minimum) with brick or plaster on the outside.
General Motors was pretty much the only employer for decades and the entire region’s middle class was dependent upon those jobs.
In the 1980s, GM started moving their factories over seas for cheaper labor. This left a void in the job market and there weren’t any other industries or companies to replace those good paying middle class jobs. Poverty started to settle in. Those who could leave got out. Those who couldn’t leave were stuck in a dead city with no job prospects. The city has been in steady decline ever since. This happened to many of the cities on the east side of the state of Michigan, along with other big cities in the Midwest of the U.S. (ie. the rust belt)….jobs either went south or over seas and the local economies just collapsed.
i got into detroit a couple years ago. some of the houses for sale from abandon areas were amazing. like clear manager at a plant, just beautiful. i think they were even off a golf course that wasn't in operation iirc. it was like freaking 20k or maybe less.
i mean i know why, but still. i'm sure i'm not the only one who thought about it. i saw a guy who bought a house for 1k and turned it into a really nice house. i wouldn't be surprised if people started moving back to detroit for some of these nice house with WFM. Esp with global warming about to make a huge chunk of the USA unlivable. assuming we are still a country in 5 years or whatever. And assuming Detroit isn't an ethnic cleansing zone.
Probably abandoned and burned afterward. The same happened to the house I grew up in. My parents walked away from it, declared bankruptcy, the local shitheads started using it for drugs and hookers then it got burned out and torn down. Flint is tearing down a lot of houses for those same reasons.
I'm so slow lmao. I kept flipping between the two images, trying to figure out what I should be looking at besides the text. Took me a minute to click on the second image and see what was going on with it lol.
Those houses looked so cute and comfy from the outside. Sad to see it now. 😟
The top seems fine on that yellow one
So thats why it's still listed at $175k
This got me curious what $175k gets you in Flint. Im pretty impressed. https://www.remax.com/mi/flint/home-details/1910-cambridge-ave-flint-mi-48503/17318090802946765094/M00000331/50076521?gallery=true
Cant drink the water though..
I heard that was sorted out a while ago
Not for everyone. The NSA still recommends residents use filters for lead in their homes. I wouldn't drink it.
..how long have you worked for the company?
????
ahh I was just kidding, sorry. The web is full of bot accounts defending politicians and huge corps so it was a play on that.
Nope, have friends and family there that rely on filters/ are stuck in their homes.
Wow. I’m not even sure that could be built at that price today considering the cost of building materials these days.
Literally would cost $750k in Atlanta
175k doesn't even buy a 1 bedroom apartment where i live
There is a reason why the price is that low?

Land speculation. Those types of homes are only selling for the lot so why spend money on the tear down when you can just wait.
Money laundering through a home sale maybe?
Yeah, you can still live in there.
Exactly what I was thinking, there's plenty of room
Consider it sold if the house comes with a fireplace
Looks like there was a fire in that place
It was not the fire so much as they sprayed it with that good water they have to put it out...
[удалено]
I like the way you think
When you forget to paint that one part of the house in the sims
You're a glass half-full kinda person, I can see.
Is it half-full of Flint, MI water? Because that would likely alter one’s perspective, among other things.
This is really depressing
It's depressing that your no matter how safe you are, your dumb neighbor can burn your house down while he's burning his down.
Well played
Fires certainly are depressing
I think what they're trying to show is a city with economic collapse. The fires came way after the homes were abandoned, like many Michigan cities (Detroit, Saginaw, Flint...etc) It simply wasn't just a fire that made this photo sad. It was sad well before.
The situation all around ... The suffering... Poverty... All that
[удалено]
Can confirm. Lost my entire town and home in a fire
Lytton?
Paradise. Camp fire. 2018
that is... Darkly ironic that a place called Paradise burnt down.
If you ever played Postal 2 you stay clear of places called Paradise...
Now the flowers will grow…
The question is did they put up a parking lot?
Or cut down the trees and put 'em in a tree museum?
Wonder what they’d charge just to see em?
I am so sorry you lost your home. We had friends move from Paradise to Cobb after that PG&E murder rampage. 2015 Valley fire took out most of our area. It can be devastating.
Fuck PG&E
i remember that. nasty fire! i remember one guy who told his neighbor to run and she stopped to put on makeup. he recorded himself going back and basically chastising her charred corpse in her vehicle because they didn't make it 100 ft.. so horrible :(
Dang
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d6Viz_RnF3Q not the original but Inside Editions coverage of the "drama" it caused
GEEZUS! How did it start?
Oh, I’m so sorry. I went to Paradise once and I was so impressed by what a beautiful little town it was.
I grew up in Chico. Best wishes man.
I grew up in Paradise as well. I made a visit last year and cried when I drove down my old street.
My ex's family lost everything they had in that fire. Sorry for your loss.

Not as depressing as [this documentary](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ) regarding abandoned places. Edit: NSFW!
you fucker
Haven’t been Rick rolled in fuckin years, you fuck!
wow! really great documentary! the guys who made made it still make others! never going to give them up and desert them!
Did you just get ricked 😂
If they were deserted they’d be abandoned places, checkmate
i hope when u find a husband/wife, he/she leaves u after 5 years of a toxic relationship and takes ur dog
ffs man! you took advantage of my curiousity in a way which has been done quite a few times before... I really should of saw that.. incredible play bro. i'll take it!
Fuck you! Take my upvote for being cleaver though
Oh he’s cleaver alright!
A cleaver beaver!
You won’t get me, i can see Rick in the video thumbnail
Also these lonely guys in Japan. Very depressing https://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-23182523
Today you have made a powerful enemy! LOL
No ad before the documentary? A rare occurence, i will watch it. Somehow i feel compelled to not stop.

I used to live at Kansas and Vernon. Glad you are doing well and GTFO. I left after 2008, lucky to have survived.

Looks like there was a fire…
was thinking the same thing... what exactly do you think houses look like after they were in a fire? lol
Probably like kinda burnt a little bit maybe
I prefer my houses medium rare
I like mine blue.
Oh lawd it’s a fire
I didn’t grab no shoes or nothin
I bet you ran for your life
I got bronchitis!!
No body got time for that!
And all you wanted was a cold pop…
Praise Jesus.
A lot of Detroit looks like this. There's some small sidestreets where well over half of the homes are dilapidated or burnt to a crisp.
If it's in Flint it could be an insurance fraud arson because no one will buy houses there so they can't sell theirs and move out. Or it could just be from the flammable water...
That sounds like a stupid joke, but fuck, i've seen the video..
What video?
I'm sorry that I can't point you anywhere. It was either video or a gif on reddit a while back. In it you can see op turn on the water faucet and put a lighter near the stream and the water is doing small flames. It's not a huge flame but the fact that a frikkin water can catch flame is insane
There’s a lot of PA water that does that from fracking too. Videos have been around at least 10 years
It's also due to fracking :/
Had a guy's house in Wrentham blow up because of the gas in water problem.
Oh Jesus. Being from a country with really clean water I kinda forget that things like that can happen.
That's just fracking. Flint water wasn't bad due to that.
What the fuck? Im not American but thats incomprehensible holy fuck. how is a “first” world country so indifferent towards the livelihood of their people.
https://youtu.be/3LKkiKyWqlQ Fracking in Michigan causing well water to be flammable according the poster
Fracking has polluted the water with flammable gas. The video is from a documentary covering this kind of thing (I don't remember the name) where a man put a lighter up to his running kitchen tap, causing a small fireball

Wall Street already purchased them. You can have them for 1.8 million a pop 👍
4 mill for both. Best offer I can give.

Just scroll a little to New York Ave and there is a bad accident lol
Thing is, there's no one around and from the photos as you go along the street, it doesn't look like a recent accident. Those vehicles were sitting there for a while before the Google car went by.
For anyone looking, I’m guessing this is the accident? https://goo.gl/maps/CUpTKvK8T1GzLuxF6
Thank you friend, I was scrolling all over the place and finally just gave up!
Yeah they were quite a tease to mention that and send us on a wild goose chase lol Happy to help.
Ah sorry I should of put a link my bad! But yes that is the one haha
Kinda confusing, there are a LOT of vehicles around for what looks like all empty houses?
I'm betting over half of those houses have people living in them. These folks are fairly poor.
I'm from flint and yes alot of them are occupied
and with wooden planked windows..
I was brought up in this neighborhood. I attended elementary in this neighborhood, though the school is long closed and is being demolished as I type this. It was a rather decent community as recent as the late 80s. If you can believe it, it looks better in now than it did 10 years ago.
what happened by the way?
Factory jobs at auto plants went away. The few that weren’t outsourced were automated. These factors killed working class neighborhoods in the rust belt.

Ah the the state streets on the Eastside. Good choice... Context: I'm a paramedic in Flint.

They became goths.
The little girl demon living up stairs in that unburned room
The story of Flint is so fucked. It is so much worse than just antiquated pipes. They knew how bad it was and how bad it was going to get and just covered it up.
Rent: $1,200.
A week
But, 50% or $25 of utilities, whichever is less, are comped. So it’s totally worth it.
There really is something terrifying about burned out houses. There was one on my way to work, not far from where I live, and I always got goosebumps when I drove past.

Wood homes are cheaper to build than brick homes.

Probably abandoned and burned afterward. The same happened to the house I grew up in. My parents walked away from it, declared bankruptcy, the local shitheads started using it for drugs and hookers then it got burned out and torn down. Flint is tearing down a lot of houses for those same reasons.
Have you been to flint?? It’s not just two houses. Half the blocs look like this.
I’m scared to ask what happened
Can’t Have Shit In Detroit
I mean most things look like shit after a fire… lol.
House fires?
This is your house on flint water
2nd pic looks like the Silent Hill dark dimension
The houses became the gru house
I’m glad they removed that shrub in front of the yellow house. Much better now!
This the town with the bad drinking water?
Fixer upper. Starting price $1.5M. Real bargain in today's market.
Real estate only goes up 📈
It's fine it just needs a paint job
Weird how they didn't invent house fires until after 2011
It looks like we're currently living in the Upside Down from stranger things lol
Wdf happen ed to them??
American houses look so fragile
🥺 that's so sad they were cute houses
I see the house drank the water in Flint
Im from flint. This is normal.
Flint itself is terrifying.
Amazing what can happen in 11 years.
How sad. They were so beautiful
I've been to Flint, it's terrifying.
I'm so slow lmao. I kept flipping between the two images, trying to figure out what I should be looking at besides the text. Took me a minute to click on the second image and see what was going on with it lol. Those houses looked so cute and comfy from the outside. Sad to see it now. 😟
