@@JoeandNicsRoadTripthe mountain dew sign was a restaurant and bar owned by my family for 30 years. I am hoping to purchase it and restore it. Actually looking at it next week. My childhood friend currently bought it and said he would sell it only to me. ❤ it was a saloon years ago. Had hotel rooms upstairs. Very beautiful history. My grandpa bought it for my grandma when I was 4. My mom bought it from my grandma when I was 14. Then my aunt bought it, then my uncle... until he passed away a few years ago. It was in bad shape... currently horrific shape. My uncle didn't take care of it and he couldn't find good workers that wouldn't cheat him. The large yellow house was my childhood friends house and we actually tried to purchase it last year... but they already had an offer. Unfortunately they painted it punk now. 😢 My entire family has lived in lynchburg at some point. My great grandparents had 18 kids. I was born and raised there. ❤

Being an Ohio Native, and having travelled many backroads, and small towns throughout the US, I have to say that towns like these are why I’ll probably never live anywhere else. While these places may not be the bustling hubs they used to be, they are still active communities with their own little eccentricities, and idiosyncrasies. You’ll find these places dotted all over Ohio, and generally the people are always friendly, and very welcoming. Being the original frontier there is also so much history in our state that is still very well known, and preserved. It’s pretty wild that in under a days journey you can go from riding on a world class rollercoaster, to the middle of Amish country. You can see mountains, plains, and three big cities in around 5 hours of driving, and you could make it into Cleveland to catch a performance of one of the best orchestras in the entire world. Whoever said that Ohio is boring never really took the time to look around.

As you have shown in your video, just because a town is poor doesn't mean they can't take pride in keeping their town safe and well maintained. Being poor is not a legitimate excuse for criminal behavior. Because the towns are so small people tend to know each other and help and support each other. There are obviously some exceptions , but overall, they are good places to live and raise families. Pride in one's self and one's surroundings is not based on income but on morals and hard work and a sense of community. ❤

I remember stopping in one of the small towns to buy a bottle of wine and it wasn't until I went into the stores that it dawned on me how run down the local economy must have been. A strange, semi abandoned slightly sketchy atmosphere. The local people were friendly but somewhat taken aback to find a foreign tourist browsing their local store. I like visiting these out of the way parts of the USA as they tend to have a lot of character, the environment is beautiful and the people friendly. There is usually a lot of social and industrial history too which is rewarding to investigate if like me that kind of thing interests you.

I learned she passed last year with her husband passing a few years earlier. They were part of a band. She sang and her husband played the guitar. They are interred in the area.

All these small towns are beautiful ... I really liked Greenfield, and especially Wilmington ... watching the video I felt like walking through those streets, it must be a wonderful experience. I live in central Italy, and watching the video some considerations came to my mind: Here in Italy the houses, whether they are single or condominiums, are almost all surrounded by a gate, while instead I see that there in the USA practically none. This makes the streets of your towns much more beautiful and livable, in my opinion ... however, I like them better than ours. Here in Italy the cars all seem to be in a hurry, often an unnecessary haste, more of a habit ... over there it seems that everyone takes it easy, another point in your favor ... in my next life I want to be born in Wilmington!!!

I wished the video could have shown the inside with the gorgeous statues as well as a marble staircase. The staircase is not used only at graduation for the seniors to use. Not much as far as restaurants or shopping here but we are centrally located about 50 miles from Columbus, Dayton, and Cincinnati. The largest "small town" nearby is Chillicothe Ohio in Ross County. It has most everything you would need to buy without traveling to the big cities.

It's really funny how people often confuse politics for economics,math and demographics. Lots of videos on this channel show charm and beauty of middle America and rust belt. Bunch of numbers, but they are all pretty basic..so many square miles population and service.. and that's all dependent on the tax base. See the sprawl of Indiana and Michigan videos and government doesn't have enough tax money coming in to maintain schools fire police roads, public space . Each video or statistics showing the population aging and getting smaller should be a 911 emergency for the entire country. How do we maintain jobs and lure new investment.. doesn't matter what political party brings the jobs brings new opportunity to the community and maintain current employment.. scary at the per capita and median household income.. very very low.. and as you drive around.. where are the building blocks for the future? Schools of everything..every kind.. and your data connecting college students w crime..? Michael Moore makes lots of films revealing obvious problems and often don't spend significant time on solutions.. the US needs workers and jobs..America needs to work towards a sweet spot of people young enough to work..produce and consume..as we are going have huge percentage of the population set to stop producing and consuming through retirement and death.. people are being sold a bill of BS about the population of the country.. Decades from now we will have even more extreme worker shortages and that's where most of the tax base comes from.. wondering what we are waiting for?

@@randycallow3736 I find it interesting how folks refuse to accept that demographics have always been political. I say that as one who graduated with an interdisciplinary degree in business and history from a self-proclaimed right wing university (and worked in their archives). That university was founded by a guy who made it his mission to make everything, including religion, political to an extreme level. Unfortunately, that dude's influence has done so much damage to the country that I don't think the US will ever recover. We hear today of certain political parties making it illegal to protest in the streets while at the same time decrying "cancel culture". Well, the founder of my former university led a massive street march to the doors of the 7/11 headquarters because he believed they were evil for selling something he didn't like. He wanted to cancel free speech for a certain publication. Anyways, enough about that. Btw, I am a librarian now.

Over twenty years Ohio's population has increased by 334,000 total. The Columbus population has grown 26% (191,000) since 2000. It does account for more than half of Ohio's population growth in that period, but that is not exponential. Until recently, I lived in Youngstown whose population has decreased 27% over the past twenty years. Most cities and towns in Ohio are in decline.

I used to live 2 states over in Illinois. Outside of Chicago is endless farmland until you get to the southern 1/3rd of the state, where there is economic desolation but it is rich with natural beauty. I lived in the farmland portion and can tell you it is incredibly boring in the villages. I can't believe Ohio is any different EXCEPT that Illinois is as flat as a board whereas Ohio has undulating hills, small waterfalls, rivers/creeks, and a lot of trees. But I know a lot of people outside of America such as India who love that sort of thing because their countries are overcrowded so it's refreshing for them to have lots of their own property and lots of space/lack of congestion.

The architecture does not deviate much from home to home. Of particular interest to me was the civil war memorial. Perhaps less than 100 miles south that memorial would have read something vastly different. I imagine it reading something similarly to this “this memorial is dedicated to those that served in the war of northern aggression.” I love the history of this great nation.

On the farm I grew up on, we had a homestead from the 1800's on it. Just the foundation and some stuff littering the ground, and an old filled in well.

My husband and I just moved to Lynchburg from a bigger city in Virginia to find an affordable home with 30 acres, good schools, and a friendly community. We really love it here.

I love Ohio small towns, I used to live in Mason for quite a few years, did a lot of exploring and found some really nice places to visit as well as shops and flea markets when I went out trayzure huntin. The big places are somewhat soulless, like Cincy and Dayton but none-the-less friendly enough. These smaller locales are quaint, a bit dated or stuck in the 80's with the same stores, dollar generals, old video shops. But around every corner there's something new.

Whatever you do don't do go to a Democrat City. You'll probably get shot or Robbed or carjack

I grew up in a small town, in Clermont County, moved to Mason, and my middle son graduated from Mason. I hated Mason. It's why I moved to Clinton County.
