Mesa PD might be THE most corrupt police in the entire country. Feds should make an example out of this entire Police Department and the city offcials that enabled their injustices. Why did Mesa rehire Philip Mitchell Brailsford and give him his pension after he blatantly murdered Daniel Shaver? They also allowed fellow murderer Charles Langley to retire and now he is hiding out in the Philippines.

I never knew Mesa was the largest suburb in the country, though I could've guessed as much! The whole Phoenix metro area is absurdly gargantuan. The streets, the shops, and the houses just never end. Cities like Mesa, Chandler, Gilbert, Tempe, etc. all blur together. It's dozens upon dozens of square mile blocks in every direction. You never realize the scale until you drive the entire length of Baseline.

Just FYI Downtown Mesa is full of transient people since it's cheap to get around and many soup kitchens are located on main st, broadway, etc etc, drug exchanges and dangerous Scenarios happen while riding light rail. Since the development of this they've had to place permanent cops around the light rail and police bike systems to be able to keep up. Please be careful and plan things early enough 🙏 not all of mesa is like this I would just say downtown. Once you get to east mesa, and tempe it's more calm, usually college students.

Next time you're near the Superstition Mall, instead of the chain story, I would suggest Nana Dee's. 50's style diner with Great food! We moved here just 3 years ago, and this is one of our favorites.

I’m not too sure that the data centers going up near the Eastmark area will actually create a lot of jobs. If they just house servers, relatively few employees are needed to run them. Some, like the new Amazon warehouse, will need quite a few employees - not sure if the majority will be high paying jobs or not.

The Mesa Az temple he mentions in downtown is one of the LDS, more commonly known as Mormon, temples. Mormon pioneers founded Mesa, and they still dominate government and politics in Mesa. He drove by several churches with white steeples. Those are Mormon churches, also called Wards. They are strategically placed in almost every neighborhood in the entire East Valley, not far from a public school.

It depends on where in Mesa you’re talking about. There are definitely areas you may want to avoid, but other areas are very nice.

Mesa's not a suburb. Never was. I left when the population was a grand 100k. Have no desire to go back. Pioneer Park still has that old rusty train. Many a children have been seriously injured playing on that old beast. Not Mormon, but been inside the LDS temple back in '76 I think for a tour, bizarro place. Just rando shots of nothing driving up and down east Main and University. That pretty much sums up Mesa.

Great city for the most part , but the city government sucks and so Does the police force.. But recently the police force seem to be getting better... But the government still sucks they rather put money into useless projects like art centers , or the Terrible light rail system.. Instead of actually Making this city better

I liked the video until you started talking about crystals...

maybe show a non mormon church 😀
