wtf guys, beloit is NOT a dangerous city. the only people who think it's dangerous are the rich suburban kids who think that older/smaller houses+a little diversity=ghetto. I mean, walking down switchtrack alley alone at night might not be the best idea ever, but that's just common sense. if you don't ask trouble too come find you, you'll be perfectly fine.
@albirrojaPY1 Yeah, around Grant St. it's pretty nice except for certain people but every neighborhood has them. The only bad area I have seen for the 15 years I have been here is a road by the McDonald's close to McNeel Middle School. And a hill that I went up to get to my friend's house where the entire hill made me feel that I could get jumped at any second but when I got to the top, it looked perfect and nothing like the rest of the hill.
Interesting video. I grew up in Beloit. I moved to a small town - Kendall, Wisconsin 5 years ago. Nothing open past 10 p.m. here. I miss some things from Beloit though it is beautiful country where I am now. Again interesting video.
haha i was just in beloit the other night im from madison but i was coming from ohio n stopped in the TA for a bit came through a lot last fall traveling between milwaukee n monroe. i gotta say it seems like a pretty decent town
I lived in Beloit Wisconsin 9 years, I saw it in several ways. My dad was a pastor in Beloit for 8 years. I was a student at the undergraduate level at Beloit College. I also graduated from Beloit Memorial High School , Beloit College and taught in the Beloit Public Schools at Hackett School.. That city has huge problems. The college is a place for rich kids that do not come from the area or city.. The high School is a great place to become a teen age mother or involved gangs,and Unemployment
I'm sorry but anyone who thinks that Beloit has a lot to offer is retarded. I lived there for 15 years. It is a terrible city no offense big bear ron, but wal-mart is all we have. I guess Riverfest in july is cool too. Other than that it is terrible, almost everyone for fifty miles in any direction has heard of it and will tell you to steer clear. We definitely dont have harmony, it has way too much criminal activity, and the whole place is, not nearly slowly enough, going to crap.
ok Beloit isn't that bad at all I have lived here all my life, im almost 16 so I do have experience, I go out and do stuff that Beloit has to offer, we have all this history, and Walmart isn't the ONLY thing there is here, we have all these different kinds of musems the Beloit College, which is one of the biggest colleges in the world. Beloit has event almost every weekend, yes we do have some bad stuff in us but other places are much much worse.
@Gweedo4ewa OMG!!!!!!!!! A lot of criminal activities?!i'm going to exchange in Beloit College next year. are there any safe place to hang out in Beloit?
@joycescofield Most of Beloit is safe. The high crime rate is only a problem if you go looking for trouble. Just stay out of the run-down parts of town, walk with a friend if you're going out at night, and you'll be just fine.
@Gweedo4ewa As with any city with a population of 35,000 there are bad parts of town and places you shouldn't be at certain times if you can avoid it. However, if you don't look for trouble generally in Beloit it won't find you. That means if you aren't in bars or known drug trafficing areas you will be good. Beloit has invested alot of money into the Riverside area and the I-90 area looks great also. Beloit has a bad reputation, but it is unwarranted.
hey, BBR! thanx for the love! there really is alot to be offered in Beloit. it's a very diverse city and you can see about anything here at any given time. it's like a melting pot of people from Chicago, Milwaukee, Rockford and the deep south. next time you swing thru going down I-90, honk the horn!
I checked Atlanta Bread's website and there's not one far from me. I hope they gave you a free meal for the promo! Your truck vlogs are great Ron, thanks.
There is also Tilley's Pizza. It's more downtown.

I almost got a trip to Iowa, but the truck broke down (Dang it!). I didn't stop in Kentucky (dang it), but drove through....
It's too bad that I don't get my trip info. soon enough to post advance announcements on YouTube.
