You need to judge this city by its cover. The crime is way worse than statistics identify. There are gunshots almost every night during the warm months and every couple nights during the cold ones. There are tweakers everywhere, and everywhere there's not a tweaker there's a heroin junkie. Someone broke into my truck and stole my McDonald's burritos while i ran into homedepot, didn't steal a single tool but cost me a window. People drive like it's a mad max meets fast and furious crossover! There are not enough stores for the amount of people there, that coupled with all the shoplifters means they will often be out of things you want. The bums are aggressive when you tell them no and I got into a handful of fights in the one year I was there. But they are usually drunk and can't hardly stay on their feet so if you're big enough to restrain a 5 year old kid that's no big deal. Unless they decide to pull a knife... -5/10 ⭐

My home town…Pueblo, rich in history and beautiful people. I’ve lived in several places and few people have heard about Pueblo. I visit my family at least once a year, and you’ve highlighted some things that are new to me. I really need to get out more when I’m there. Thank you for this wonderful video!

I cannot thank you enough for making this video. I came to visit and find out for myself. I'm moving to Pueblo next month, and I've travelled all over the U.S.

I was born in Pueblo but grew up in Denver. I periodically visit family there and had no idea some of these places existed. Thanks for showing me some new places to go. BTW Passkey has amazing Italian sausage sandos!

Yep, Pueblo gets a bad rap but it is a hidden gem. It’s starting to become discovered for sure now. Great weather and great food, only 30 minutes or so to mountain areas and a really nice lake.

"Bad rep" it gets the reputation it deserves. It's a beautiful* city with some really unhinged people and some of the most disrespectful and dangerous drivers I've encountered outside of LA. Acting like there isn't a problem with the social state of this city will only cause the issues to never be resolved and simply become brushed under the rug until they get worse.

@@RealBono not sure about the drivers, there are much worse in every major city. I worked all over the country for 25 yrs, the very worst drivers I’ve seen are in Miami. Anyway, Pueblo has always gotten a bad rap from people in Denver/Northern Colorado, many of which have never even been to Pueblo. Those who actually spend some time here tend to like it. Most who move to Pueblo from Northern Colorado also like it here. Don’t get me wrong, Pueblo has lots of problems that need addressed. Drugs have become a huge problem over the last 6-7 yrs. Homelessness is a problem, but that is everywhere.

Yes! This! Native Michigander here. I fell in love with Pueblo when one of my kids lived there, also in the Mesa junction area. Although they don't live there anymore, I plan to look for a place there when I retire unless I hit the lotto first, then sooner lol. It's hard to put into words but I pine for it. The weather is perfect, there are so many cool book and record and antique stores, very bohemian and very me in some of the downtown areas. Delicious food, all kinds of stuff to do. Art everywhere. Shorter winters but you still get that snow for Christmas. You can find bad crime areas in any town anywhere. I love Pueblo, and good for your mom for choosing an awesome place to be! I envy her!

Thank you so much for highlighting Pueblo in this awesome video!! Pueblo is my hometown and it is often very overlooked. My whole family still lives there, so we always enjoy our visits back to see them and indulge in all of our favorite restaurants. My summer job for 3 summers was a tour guide on the boats at the Riverwalk! I drove them and got to tell all about Pueblo history!

Wonderful video. I grew up in Pueblo left for 5 years and have been back for 50 years. Some of the bad reputation comes from locals who moved away and some still here. Pueblo is a hidden gem but I’m reluctant to see the cat out of the bag. As a business owner in the historic district I welcome the publicity but I also rue rampant growth. I have seen many positive changes over the years from the founding of the Sangre de Cristo Art Center in 1972, the reservoir, the creation of the historic district, the riverwalk and the fantastic library. I do not fear any part of town. One daughter lives on the east side and one in Bessemer. There are problems but nothing you wouldn’t find in most other towns.

I lived all over the country and things are the same in any city. I also love Detroit, and the places others don’t. That steel mill raised me and my four siblings, put food on the table and sent us all to college. Thank you, thank you!!!

We lived in Pueblo 25 years ago and was back in town last week. I won't lie, it was looking pretty sketchy. Lots of boarded up houses, homeless tents on the side of the highway. We were downtown the day after Thanksgiving so it was Friday and a holiday weekend. Nothing was open, we drove around looking for a place to have dinner and it was a ghost town for some reason. Love the weather in Pueblo, sunny and no humidity.

I Love your video, and I love living in Pueblo. I got the same negative feedback when I first decided to make Pueblo my home 9 years ago. It has been a wonderful place to live with good people and now good friends. I feel very much at home here and miss it when I'm away. Prayers for your mother.

I lived in Pueblo 2012-2021 and am thinking about coming back. I always liked the scale of the city. A negative thing is that Pueblo has expansive soil, which over time will crack your sidewalk, driveway, and foundation. The length of time that it will take is proportional to the thickness of the concrete. Much of the housing stock is older (1920s to early 1950s).

Thank you so much for doing this amazing video on my home town of Pueblo. This town does get a bad rap, but it doesn’t deserve it. In addition to all of the things you mentioned, the community here in Pueblo is second to none! The people here would give you the shirt off their back! I love my home town and am so glad to call it home today. Next time you are here, don’t forget to check out the air museum out by the air port and Reservoir Brewing in Pueblo West!

Thank you for sharing our wonderful little town! My best friend owns SoCo Organics and it really is the best garden center in the state 🥰🥰🥰

Someone else already mentioned but it's worth repeating - the rec path is really nice and one of our favorite places to bike.

Be careful and do your research. Pueblo is ranked in the worst five US cities in terms of crime. Pueblo is located in a state full of dope smoking Marxist lunatics - thus the crime wave is no accident and will not be resolved - it will only get worse, by design. You are actually safer and better off moving to San Francisco or Los Angeles at this point.

I'm 70 years old now, but when I was 16, I proposed the River Walk to City Council; they denied my idea, but luckily, they eventually adopted it, although I never got credit for being the 1st one to propose it. The MOH (Medal Of Honor) are not "winners "; they are recipients. I knew all of them personally. Treat yourself to a tour of the Rosemont Museum, (and the Weisbrod Aircraft Museum at the airport. ) I was the ONLY chauffeur in Pueblo during the 1980s. I now live in Cripple Creek,Colorado (about 70 miles north west of Pueblo), but Pueblo is my hometown.

Thanks for the awesome tour of Pueblo. Life long resident here … I’d Like to first start out and tell you welcome to the home of the hero’s.. you did an awesome review of our town.. You are right there are beautiful things to see here if you look for them. On your next tour you should try liberty point they have awesome sunsets you would love. It over looks Lake Pueblo state park. Also check out the river trails that have different murals of local artists. Haven’t seen very much of your videos but I think all start. Nice to have someone come from some other state and say nice things about our people and town. . prayers for your mother wish her well.. .. Happy trails..

From someone that has lived in Pueblo some thing that you need to do is 1. Bell, Canon, or Pigskin Football games. The bell is the oldest rivalry west of the Mississippi. 2. Watch some baseball at Runyon 3. Go to any pumpkin patch on the mesa 4. State Fair 5. Chili festival. 6. State fair/ parade of lights parades 7. City park

Thanks for posting this! I am a Colorado native born and raised in Denver, but left in 2017 for Pueblo because the growth in Denver and congestion was intolerable! It wasn't even like my home anymore. Pueblo is still like what Colorado used to be like before it was invaded. I think it is a bit overkill how bad the fake reputation is of Pueblo, but then again maybe it is a good thing as it has kept people from going crazy coming here. Denver had WAY more crime and rough spots of town than Pueblo hands down! I would say to the people that want to move here from out of town, DO be mindful to pick a nice area of town still as Pueblo is still a city. There are a couple little rough areas of Pueblo (just like every city), so don't move in on the rough side of the tracks. Most of Pueblo is great, and the pace of life is laid back. The people are amazing, they love their families and they have pride in their families and community (just as it should be). I am content to spend the rest of my days out here in Pueblo enjoying life and the laid back people. BTW Pueblo is EXCELLENT at preserving their history and historical buildings. That is another HUGE reason I came here as I am an old house and old architecture addict!

Nice to see someone post something positive about Pueblo for a change. I love those majestic homes on that one street you showed. If someone knows the name of it, I’d like to drive down it myself. Pueblo does have more sunshine than Denver, both claim 300 days of sunshine a year, I believe most of the state claims this, but they fall bit short of that. And the way it’s measured, only one hour of sunshine qualifies as a sunny day if I remember correctly. It was a marketing ploy for the whole state of CO, and as I understand it, the railroads perpetuated it back in the 1870’s, I believe, in order to entice people to their state. People are still using it. Although it comes up short of 300, I can’t think of a more beautiful place to be in the summer. I’m south of Pueblo close to La Veta, and will always make it here in the summer to escape TX hellacious heat.
