Let's not leave the Chi off the list:

1. Englewood
2. K-Town
3. Lawndale
4. Austin
5. South Shore aka Terror Town
6. Little village
7. The Wild 100s



#5 is my old stomping ground.
Used to be all over East...South C, Raw Naw, etc.

Far East around commercial , exchange, etc etc used to be mostly cousins (Kings and Moes) with a few folks (Black and Mexican) sprinkled in....now they got lords, dragons, kings, 4chs, stones, folks, etc etc....all in a small area; recipe for bs.

Each of those that u listed are only a few blocks....small areas in a big city. Most are still Still fucked up/poor areas...but no where near as violent as they used to be.


Most of these places are just regular working-class neighborhoods with a few idiots running around giving them a bad name.

Basically. This also applies to todays Chicago.

You got young knucklehead niggas, old bitter Black folks and racist White folks making the country think Chicago is "wall-to-wall hood", Chiraq, etc.......but Chicago hasnt been a pure shit hole in over 16 years. Lots of isolated struggle....but not a pure war zone.

As for the parts of Michigan that are now being called the murder capital....they didnt become that way until the economy went to pure shit. Go figure.

That's my city fam, I still hit Mario's or Royal Caribbean on Dyre and Rocatone on white plains road when I pass through... Papi at the liquor store on Laconia next to the 47 (the little one, not the new big joint up the block) still knows my name. In fact, I think we've had this discussion numerous times

this area is popping

You must mean in the day time when that Fed court building (in the first pic) is bustling. Courlandt Ave runs right into 161.. Melrose, the side closer to the Deegan(87) and that whole area is still not a nice place to be at night. There's a really nice park around Yankee stadium and stays well lit, you won't be bothered there unless the group of niggas in there banging out their calisthenics intimidate you

I frequent the GBar / Giovanni down by 149th (great food, pizza, and women) - I'm always at my cuz's crib on 163rd at all hours and the dudes in the Puerto Rican spot across from the court house know my face and name... I pop in there late night too many times.
It ain't sweet, one side of the Concourse is better than the other but neither side ain't hood no more - rents are going UP, and I've been seeing more and more white people moving in since 2009...
As I'm sure you already know - if you chill outside in one spot around there you will see a never ending parade of some of the baddest women in NYC

I can't co-sign that it's not hood, but I know what you mean. I feel like I'm repeating myself because I know we've talked about this before on the board, it was inevitable they came back for that area. Yankee stadium is right there, it's a 1-a couple stops into manhattan depending on what train you take and those apartments on the concourse were originally built for the jews anyway with the sunken living rooms etc etc. They're priming it for when Harlem is complete.

But I completely get what you're saying and why you feel that way
