That video is more of a commentary on the things that DON'T exist here anymore. The people, factories and lifestyles are all gone. The mill owners passing out checks to the employees, the iron plants, and the tremendous industrial complex that skirted the Mahoning River are all gone. City of the Dead is about a culture and lifestyle that doesn't exist anymore.

I have always loved Youngstown's architecture. It's beautiful! Don't love the crime and dangerous areas but I still like Youngstown. It's a city with potential. I miss Jim Trafficant!

[metromonthly]

We love Youngstown too.

@Stixx128 Why can't people support Themselves? It's the truth.... nothing there..... Where is the plan for the city? You have to ask yourself........ Get the people together and start a new beginning..... a rebirth....

@westonsz Throw the politicians in too, I'd like to outsource all of them D's & R's alike!! They vote themselves a raise while the country is on the verge of economic collapse!!

[westonsz]

The prosperity is long gone so thank the idiots in congress and the least talented and most overpaid corporate leaders on earth. Next please outsource the jobs of the undeserving corporate American leaders. They are even worse than the union workers due to the fact that they do nothing at all for the pay.

Thanks for the video. So sad what's happened to Youngstown. Have family there still. Had many who worked in the mills.... Want to know what's wrong with Youngstown? Do a search here and look at 80% of the videos related to it. It's not hard to figure out...
