anywhere worth going and isn't a dump in chicago is cac filled, that's a fact

i'm trying to think of the city that isn't like that.

I do see blacks in the "good areas" all the time. If you really think you'll just see fat white when u go to the Taste then u got another thing coming. Do some research before stating shyt that isn't true.

you're right, the "nice areas" are usually more white then other races, but when me and my boy going into a restaurant and we the only minorities in the place for a few hours, then walk out the street and see a sea of cacs, it doesn't compare to NYC, SF, LA, Miami...

It's hilarious how misinformed ppl are about NY in here thinking everyone LIVES in manhattan...nah man ppl work there and find cheaper rent in the outer boroughs. I would never want to live in manhattan, there's way more affordable living options...especially if u have a roommate. Oh and you don't really need a car to get anywhere.

Having a room mate and living in a box is not the way to live. Especially in your 30's. Roommates are for college students. NYC is not cool to live in unless you made out of $$$ to enjoy yourself.

C/s the dope areas of Chicago being cac havens, and I also feel dude about being the only black folk at restaurants and bars, especially if you venture further north than river north. The segregation here is wack then you have the same 150 buppies that show up to the same parties, it just gets old. And as a transplant, most people you know don't live in the black neighborhoods so you end up feeling super disconnected from the black community...don't get me wrong, Chicago is cool, but IMO its not seeing DC or NY

It's pretty much the norm living in Manhattan...spouse or roommate.

That's one thing I have to give the south is its cost of living compared to other places. For what a lot of people pay to live basic, I can pay to live pretty good.

NY is one of the best cities in the world

My rent isn't that bad, if I stay here long term I'll just buy.
