The opening scene for Amsterdam is Amsterdam, The Netherlands, not Amsterdam, NY. Syracuse is a city in New York, not India. These are just two of the many examples of the video not depicting the city it claims to be showing. Does anyone edit these videos, or are we expecting too much from AI?

You can thank 65 years of bad, corrupt politicians for most of this disaster. No incentive for businesses to stay in NY. Both parties suck.

Ft. Drum, it was a no place, till the 10th Mountain division came to town, the Army moved them from Alaska, because it's colder in Watertown!

You ought to include Fulton, NY. Miller Beer plant and One of Nestle's first factories held this little city together. Not only did these 2 places close (Nestle gave no notice. Employees came to work to locked doors), we also lost a hospital to private investors. Historic buildings were knocked down to make room for another auto parts store (that makes 3 now) for a community that is over 80% poverty.

Syracuse does NOT have closed industrial businesses on the south side of Syracuse. Any city with older homes will find high lead levels in the children who occupy old homes with lead pipes! Why lie?????

Syracuse has great hospitals, amazing mall and we are going to the state fair again this weekend. The homeless are coming up from nyc and its getting worse, hence homeless from syracuse heading into Cortland and ithaca.

You couldn't take a very small amount of effort to find pictures to match the narration? Just a bunch of random pictures that mean nothing!

Apparently the flooding in Elmira caused a proliferation of palm trees. The lack of effort on this video is ridiculous
