They are now calling Toledo Little Detroit. I grewup in Toledo. Scary.
I was born in Northeast Philly in 1963. We fled the city in 1968. Never were able to sell the rowhome.
Yoday you can use Google Earth to see that very same street that I played on as a child. t looks like a warzone. Things have fallen down and collapsed, but not a one seems to have deliberately torn down or improved on.
It is a disgrace and an indictment of Democrats and their liberal Utopian dreamworls.
Living there now. Just showed my GF that video. She agrees, that is an accurate reprsentation of the state of Detroit. It’s third world. Toledo isn’t as bad by any means but we are close enough to Detroit that we can’t help but be affected by its decline (the decline of the automotive industry) and there’s a real fear that we haven’t seen the worst of this recession/depression throughout Toledo (and all of Ohio really). I imagine the next set of mortgage resets will be the coup de grac for a lot of states including Ohio and Michigan. We’ll see.
