Youngstown is a dump, or at least it was when I was last there maybe 15 years ago.

I have never been to Youngstown. The closest I've been is New Castle.

First place I'd ever been where many houses had cages around their HVAC units

Most people have no idea how decrepit our natural gas local distribution network is in the country. It’s an absolute mess. You’d be shocked if you saw some of the pipe come out of the ground that I have. It’s amazing this doesn’t happen more often.
Here’s one point to illustrate it. I proposed installing sniffers on our entire fleet to do passive detection. We were forced to drop the project because the test units were hitting dozens of times a day and the utility companies are required to respond to leaks quickly. They killed the project because they couldn't handle it.

Maybe, but that has nothing to do with this.

Why was everything blocked off and no cars on that road or pedestrians? Was the leak maybe detected and safety precautions were in place?

Was the leak behind the meter?
There have been a few where the leak was outside but collected in a vent or overhang and lit.
Also not uncommon to have meters inside in that part of the world. I can’t remember if we did any for Enbridge but we had meter move out projects going on all over the place.

We are spending little to no money on infrastructure because our govt thinks our money can be used on other things.

A/C is a valuable commodity up home. 1.Not everyone has it and 2. Most don't have central air like here in the South, it's window units so it's easier to steal, thus, the cages

The government doesn’t get too involved in funding these projects. They’re privately funded by the utility company since they own the infrastructure. But they do have to get approval for the rate case from whoever oversees those, which is usually pretty government-ish.

Believe me, I know. It's one of the bellwether counties that put Trump over the top in '16.
And it's also redneck AF. My family included.

But it's home. And I miss it dearly.
