This is the effect of the mortgage/foreclosure crisis. All of these abandoned communities are within walking distance of my home.

this over near Tolleson??

[deathhag]

@adrienneboland830 Yes. I went back there a few months ago. All of the houses have been leveled. Everything is gone.

Looks like I'm setting a bit of a trend here, quite a few vids are being uploaded showing how bad other towns and cities are deteriorating due to the recession

[deathhag]

Wow! you're quite the trendsetter! Considering you posted your video AFTER me.

[essmbee]

but my vid is a second version, I posted the orginal at the end of August but removed it a week later.

[deathhag]

Wonderful, glad we got that all cleared up. Off you go trendsetting guy...setting trends and stuff.

Man that makes me sick. People put money into that and then some asshole has to come along, destroy $20k worth of stuff just to get $20 worth of copper wire. This world is going down hill. Plus some of those houses are way better than what i am living in, and their abandone

[ndog2005]

houses have been leveled?? What a waste, they are Beautiful..

[granolanutpunch]

I can't believe Obama did that to this house. What an evil man.

Yes I'm joking. And if you think that he did look at the date on the vid.

@tarzanzardoz007 Banks giving loans without 25% down, playing games with CDO's and MBS's have destroyed the world economy. Every major company has move it's manufacting to the cheapest labor source, leaving millions without jobs. Add to that the US is bankrupt wanting 25% of your income or more in taxes. We need and inport taxe of 40% and a flat national sales tax of 10% on more income tax or property taxes! Look at those homes and just think the state wanting $2,000 a year in property taxes ea.

[tarzanzardoz007]

Unbelievable, but true. There is something seriously wrong in this country.

Why let such nice house get vandalized and be destoryed

[JBLAKIE1]

@dirtastegood

yeah all those people lost their homes but thank god the banks got bailed out and executives got bonuses lol

[casinohijack]

We should through some homeless people in those houses or some homeless vets. Slap some solar panels on the house and let them fix it up. This is about the stupidest thing i have ever seen all these people going homeless and all these houses are worthless. Its not that people dont want to work of there is no love in the world for these homes its a screwed up system and people are displaced and controlled by the cops. The land should be free to all of us someone should squat at one of those homes

I went to a spooky ghost town last night with some friends...but it was a bit dangerous since there is mattresses and shotgun shells everywhere. everything is overgrown so it really looks apocalyptic
