Most Ghetto Cities In America

Post by AbdiWahab252 »

Most Ghetto Cities You Have Ever Visited/Lived in America:


1. Baltimore - Dirty, dangerous, crime ridden. The level of urban decay is mind boggling. It is the one place where more people get killed every night than Baghdad.

2. Gary, Indiana - Home of MJ (Michael Jackson). Yet a dirty poor, economically devastated wasteland. Don't stop here just keep driving.

3. Southeast, DC - This place has infant mortality rates worse than those in Subsaharan Africa. Whatever you do, don't venture here at all. If you do, don't stop and ask for directions.

4. East Los Angeles - Horrible joint. You might get caught up with the over 12,000 gang bangers in the LA County area.

If you ever get lost in these places, pray, pray hard.

I wouldn't really call it ghetto. City is actually gettin cleaned up, a sound transity train bein built and everything. A lot of the madows moved out, went to Tacoma and Kent, cheaper housing, Seattle is expensive.

There's some stupid kids who act hard and retarded, but nothing too bad. Its a nice city, crime is low, and most neighborhoods are nice.

You forget Southern Chicago. That place is so dangerous that the normally brave MJjpride had to run away for his life. Police has a no go zone over there

MJPride,

I totally forgot the Southside. I visited during a cold winter day and noticed I was the only car on the road.

Been to Detriot and the city is garbage. They don't even clean the city. You see mcdonalnd and KFC leftovers all over the city. The people of Detriot are nice though. Most Somalis run away from Detriot and they are in An arbor and Lansing

Voltage,

Oakland's not that bad anymore. Still some drive-bys in "West" Oakland and the southern flatlands, but there's been a big improvement since 60's, 70's. Much of the Madow population has been replaced with Vietnamese, Latinos and Koreans. The "Hills" are distinctly upper crust. The Eritrean and Ethiopian restaurants on Telegraph Ave. have a middleclass clientele. There are no no-go zones. The old downtown area has been largely redeveloped.
