How is milkwakee the "best" city in the midwest? Especially a place known for having a drinking problem and has experienced decline?

Honestly, being from Memphis originally, Milwaukee's hoods look like some of the better kept neighborhoods in Memphis. It doesn't really look that bad there. Of course, once you've seen Detroit and Memphis, everything looks pristine. And Wisconsin looks pretty cool, regardless. Wisconsin is friendly and inviting. It's like Minnesota's drunk cousin. 😄

Yeah, bars is right. I grew up in South Milwaukee and we had 3 bars and liquor srore by my grade school.

I’ve been to Milwaukee a couple of times and thought it was a cool city, especially the historic area. I think it gets overlooked because it’s so close to Chicago.

Nick, you're the only person I've ever witnessed pulling off every look from every region of the US. Everything from countryside bunken to upper yooper. I'm still waiting for that south florida style though. . Just put on a poncho and a sun visor if you ever go there.

Fast fact: I was there when they revealed the Bronze Fonz statue. A lot of original cast members were there as well. Anyway, when they were taking pictures of Henry Winkler standing next to it (he is really a tiny man in person) someone pointed out to him (which he then announced on the mic) that the veins in the backs of his hands are "HW" and "SW", which are his and his wife's initials. Also, a lot of people around here think it looks more like the Joker than the Fonz.

Milwaukee really has some huge old homes.

I really enjoy your channel. With this video, you really came out of your shell. I live in a Boston suburb (an hour north) Newburyport, which is actually a city but acts like a town. Everyone knows each other. It is an old historic seaport town where ships were made and textiles sold. I wasn't born here but have seen pictures of the boarded up windows in our downtown in the 1970's. Nobody wanted to live here. Now the avg house is $1M. If you visit downtown Boston, it is really beautiful. However, there are parts of Boston that are not safe even during mid-day and they look like @12:33. I'm thinking areas like Dorchester and Mattapan. Both are considered "Boston." but you won't see any pictures of those areas on tourist flyers. (do they still make flyers?) I remember when Baltimore, MD tried to re-invent themselves. They created "Inner-Harbour" (I added the U to make it classier). It was initially a huge success with shops, restaurants, and condos right on the water, joined by an enormous curvy boardwalk. It was a huge push for MD. However, I believe today, it is no longer new nor quaint. It was beautifully reborn, yet had a painful death. I'm not sure why. Did Eric, @14:29 own or rent? (not judging, just curious). Behind "Mappy" look at Nick's rotary dial black phone in front of his YT plaque. 😎 BTW, I'm the guy who wears shorts all of the time. I look like I'm either coming or going to the gym.

In fact, Later had nightmares I was stuck there. Somehow dreams became a nightmare when Milwaukee was the setting. Trying to figure that out. Nothing terribly wrong with it except the gray, and I never feel like drinking.

From WI here- yes- it is pathetic how much people include drinking into their lives. Truly pathetic. I don't drink a thing. Not a drop. It causes to much misery for people. And for those who drink & think "I'm doing fine." You're not. You could be doing MUCH better.

Grew up in Milwaukee and its by far my favorite Midwestern City. Always love coming back there especially for all the breweries and Beer and German food and the downtown area is really nice.

To get a true feel for the hood it should be a summer night not winter day time.

NICK IS THE BEST

Went to John Robert Powers finishing school there, My band played German Fest for many years, have relatives there, some of the best food in the world here 😊 Bars everywhere in the whole state, great tour Nick!

I got goosebumps when you said this is your new favorite place. My family has been here since 1863 and I love to call it home!

Was gonna say! Ron Jeremy wants his stash

Thanks for another great video! It looks like a fabulous town!

Loved that one you did in the MUP

Interesting to me that the homes in the bad neighborhoods look just like the homes in Connecticut and also Ohio. I'm curious why the architecture in these separate states are all the same..... homes built around 1910-1920

They all read the same craftsmen catalogues and ordered from Sears

Those were kit homes sold by Sears, Montgomery Wards and lumberyards. Home builders would buy lots from developers then offer to build a home the buyer wanted from a catalog show by the builder..

I would have asked the brewery why is it that beer costs more per gallon than gasoline, when gasoline is not renewable but beer is. Also, how is it that Coors is made in Milwaukee when their label says it’s made with Rocky Mountain water?

Love all your videos Nick❤

i got an internship in the milwaukee area this summer. nice to know that the city is cool.

It's not cool. Young people move out when they get a chance.
