Abandoned Town of Union Level Virginia
Union Level is quite an amazing little piece of history. Located in Virginia, it sits not far from the North Carolina line. Feels like the middle of nowhere, because it kinda is. Abandoned and by many called a Ghost Town, the only thing you can hear is nature and some semi trucks moving along the road. This place once had general stores, barber shops, a bank, motorcycle dealer, pharmacy, and a railroad depot. Unfortunately with the changing times of travel, growing of surrounding areas, and the Great Depression, most of this came to an end by the late 1920's. Many moved to a nearby area called South Hills, VA. Whats left is only a small reminder of what used to be. Population has steadily declined, currently it's at around 67 people within the area, and will certainly continue to become less as times goes by. Let's take a quick look and see what it looks like!

Man, WV is a pretty unique place. With a population of 706, and a median household income of around 70k, it's definitely in a lot better shape than most of West Virginia. This IS the Home of The Hillbillies, as its school name suggests. Let's take a quick drive through and check it out.

Переглядів 2,9 тис.День тому
Mckees Rocks is said to be the most dangerous place in Pennsylvania, but taking a drive through it, is it really?

Knoxville, Tennessee Worst Areas?

Here's SOME of the worst areas in Knoxville, TN. Although the crime stats suggest crime to be twice the national average and poverty level more than 22.5%, are the worst areas really THAT bad? The population is certainly growing at 796,337, and increasing every year so maybe it's not all that bad, right? Let's take a drive and check it out.

West Virginia | What Is an Appalachian Holler?

So what really is an Appalachian Holler in West Virginia? Well, it's usually a very narrow road surrounded by beautiful mountainsides. It will have a creek running beside it, and of course will have a dog watching your every move as it sits or stands on the road, might even chase ya (almost always happens to me). A lot of times the holler will be family or close knit friends, they will always s...

    You didn't film the big fancy really expensive homes on the River road in Franklin Highs or the mansions in Miller Park. There is still money in the area but only a select handful have it. Most of us can barely afford the taxes and insurance and still put food on our table.

    My father, brothers, sister, and I grew up in Hendrysburg. We all went to school here as did my father. He operated a filling station and an automobile repair shop and body shop here. Some people think the closing of the coal mines doomed the town but that’s incorrect. The town had been here and very prosperous for nearly 200 years which was nearly 120 years prior to the coal industry boom. The single greatest destroyer of the economy was the interstate coming through. Once that happened, malls began popping up within easy driving distance, local grocery stores were no longer needed. The school closed as did the post office. Everything slowly began becoming consolidated elsewhere. Then, we moved away after graduating school. It’s terribly sad to see this. My sister still lives here as does one of my nephews. It’s just heartbreaking to watch it go to ruin. I have a very detailed video from nearly 40 years prior to this one. I may try putting it onto this platform one day. Thanks for your video.
