Louisville Kentucky: Crime | Street | Crash | Flood | Urbex Opus Gallery Volume Four (2017 - 2018)

Most of last year I did long haul truck driving and had a delivery there. It creeps me out being in places like that and the customers were dicks.

It reminds me of one time I was in Louisiana parked at a truck stop and there was a guy who literally lived in the woods behind there offering to polish truck chrome for money for food.

It's a life I cant imagine. When I see photos like these it makes me feel like there are parts of our country that are basically third world countries and it's saddening.

The weird part is looking just past the urban decay and seeing the towering cityscape and seeing so much prosperity nearby.
 
From what I've seen, it's a great city. Also, from what I've seen, it has parts that are really going through a rough time.
It surely does, I avoid West Louisville for the most part because of it. But IMO Eastern Kentucky/ Appalachia are in a far worse state. They tend to be forgotten about partially because most people tend to think they are white trash Hillbillies.

But I've never met a nicer bunch of people in my life.
 
I live in Louisville, it's actually a really nice city.

Well, there is the main city and there is this crap on the south side. To be fair maybe these pics exaggerate things, but I didn't feel like parking my truck behind the Valero gas station covered in iron bars.

It's kind of how even Downtown Detroit has nice buildings, but venture off in a certain direction and you see neighborhoods falling apart.

I drove semitruck and I delivered to a warehouse in the West Side lol.

It somewhat seemed to be in a Pre-MadMax phase.

I don't know much about Appalachia Kentucky. Would it be comparable to the Ozarks and the people that live there or is it more modern than that?
