Youngstown, OH. Steel industry left, but the families are still there. A beautiful river runs through the town. Craftsman homes- gorgeous homes with original builtins! Beveled glass windows in French doors. Real wood floors and these houses are abandoned right and left like in Detroit but in Youngstown you'd actually want to live. The Christian community through the Church has made great differences in many lives here by being the "village" that helps raise the children there who are experiencing challenges. The documentary aired on PBS in Phoenix on Jan 22nd, 2023 again and it was informative, interesting and inspiring to see children featured in the program enjoying trick or treating in their own town. Interviews with the black residents - Youngstown has a lot of black people that worked in the steel industry which the industry is now gone- they discuss their memories and current opinions and hopes. What a wonderful program and I will ever be reminded of Youngstown and the families there. My only regret is in my later stage of life, that I will not be here long enough to buy one of those beautiful antique glorious Craftsman home there too, and to enjoy the pretty trees, rivers and nature there.
