This is the Ghetto in Kobe, Japan. It's called Shinkaichi. The homeless take shelter under the roof of the old open air mall, a cross guard toughs out the rain and tiny restaurants open their doors to customers on a Friday evening. This is the Ghetto in japan.

  • There's no ghettos in Japan, get real.

  • @Serendipity1881 I am as real as rice. In Japan, this is considered a ghetto.

  • How is this a ghetto.............?!

  • @bealuct Exactly man, that's my point. If this is the "ghetto" in Japan you can see what a safe place it is. This neighborhood is what Japanese people consider the ghetto. Man, if they only knew what a real ghetto was like...

  • @GrayAu well i meant nishinari, osaka well be considered a "ghetto" or a slum. i didn't mean the south was ghetto, i meant if in the u.s., if the north was kanto, the south would be kansai.

  • @719n30track south of the US isn't ghetto but... if they look at it in a similar way it could be with distaste then, huh?

  • it's really interesting that in Japan, you will find more crimes in rich city areas than you would do in these poor "ghetto" places. the yakuza don't hang around in "ghettos", they're all over the big cities.

  • @GrayAu LOL haha osaka is like the "southern" of the u.s. but in Japan.

  • @719n30track isn't all of Osaka considered by the Japanese as their ghetto? ^^

  • go to nishinari, osaka japan. that will be considered a ghetto.

  • omg the guy at 1:49...so cute :D

  • @PowerCrumb45 Americans don't know what a real ghetto is... i'm from albania and there you have normal neighboorhoods who are all public housing. the poor neighboorhoods are slums...

  • watch out! the old women might shank you!

  • Japanese people have this for a ghetto? Wow, just think if they saw Detroit or New Orleans.
