yeah but you gotta take that 110k and buy a house at todays prices as well. probably at a less ideal location.
These houses were being bought in not the best condition either, so it’s a come up for the previous owner however you look at it. When people are willing to pay you 300+% on an investment you can’t even remember buying that’s a come up

Point was to reaffirm the article/Wiki statement that the community was well entrenched prior to 2008.
But thats not the point. The point is that the community is growing exponentially. You're underestimating their economic impact.

the Jewish community as a unified force is not gentrifying the areas @Born2BKing be was originally referring to.
Gentrification is like dropping a rock in a pond: the effects ripple outward. It's not always linear. They started in NYC with Bill Clinton's post presidency office and a magic Johnson Starbucks on 125th st. They just now reaching where im at in brooklyn. It took a long time, but city lanners mapped this out a decade ago.

Incidentally, who owns the real estate in the areas you're focusing on? Are they homes or condos/ luxury apts?

The article is in line with what I stated.
:gucci: How so? It contradicts your main point: they always had a community here, this is not new. It's absolutely 'new' (in census years). And a whole bunch of affluent nyc Jews will absolutely fukk up your housing market. (Ask me how i know. :comeon:)

@SourPowerStraws

I think you might be taking this as challenge to what you posted which it really isn’t.
:ehh: No, but thanks for this. Im pushing back because i want to apprise you of the danger... or the possibilities, depending on where you sitting. My closest cousins were raised in Atlanta, still there. There was a period in the late 90s when i was there every year. I love that city and want bp to win bc we were totally unprepared here in nyc.

With all due respect I think you jumped over a lot of points to get to where you want to be. Very specific to the OP everything I said is more than reasonable and bordering on fact.

If you want to jump to the magnitude of what it could be that’s fair but also that needed a lot of context. You quoted me with a response another thread entirely. Up until this last post I didn’t know you main focus was how bad it could get. You clearly have seen that where you are but that line of dialogue wasn’t evident based on what you saying to me.

Either way I see and respect your points while standing by my statements relative to the OP.

The actual city of Decatur has always had white folks though bruh.

The Decatur we know and love (Unincorporated Decatur..Columbia, Glenwood, Memorial, Flat Shoals, etc) still the same. But I will say I used to go kick it with a home girl who had a crib in a neighborhood near Columbia HS and it was like 3 white folks who moved in her neighborhood.

they all had Atlanta United flags hanging in front of their house :hhh:

I wonder how long they’ll stay there till they get tired or too afraid of the young nikkas in that area

!00! I had to do some research on the Demographics of the city, and saw that it was only listed as a quarter Black :ld:. Yeah you're right, I always associate Decatur with the Columbia, Dr, Wesley Chappel, Glenwood area etc and rarely with the North Decatur region. It is FASCINATING considering that the county itself is overwhelmingly Black (one of the nation's Blackest), and most of it's black residents do not dominate the county seat (Decatur). The downtown Decatur area where I am now (work) is "gentrified" with a healthy amount of Black people, but still it's clearly trying to approach a mini Buckhead status. It's so interesting when I see these immigrants here. They are no where near as cocky as they are in other cities, and I get the feeling that they know that they have entered a system with the expressed intent of preying on Black Americans. It's the nervous guilt that I feel when I'm around them, or... they're just scared of a nikka with a muscular build.

I guess maybe..I don't have to not acknowledge the "friendly" Cacs walking by knowing that they are simply renovating their own area of the county. Still though they are trying to encroach on the more southerly areas eventually. Google is planning on building a facility of some sort off of 20 in that area, which we can only imagine the level of cacery that will follow and surround that new facility.

When I was middle school I lived off of Atlanta Rd, in the black/Mexican "affordable" apartment complex right across the street from it (DeVille Apartments). If it were not for Campbell Middle still being there I would not know where I was at thanks to the gentrification.

According to the 2006 population survey, Jews who have moved to the area in the last 10 years also outnumber those born in the area, particularly in the northern suburbs.[2]

"15- 16 yrs ago" is 2006, your comment triggered the memory of my og post. It's not 'white people', it's Jews specifically, hence all the new synagogues. When we lived in gentrified Harlem, my neighbors were 70% jews, 15% foreign or American white, and the ppl who follow them (Asians, gay bm, one or two black DINKs). They're starting on our block in Brooklyn now.

Theres a pattern to gentrification, just tryna pull y'all coat and tie in some data. Id be curious to know if the pattern holds true in other cities, ie, its not 'regular' white people who gentrify us out. I read an article about the explosion of "NY style delicatessens" in Atlanta. They have cultural markers. Watch for markers and you may be able to foresee trendlines, benefit, plan ahead, etc. Its an elegant predictor for model building.

YEESS! Jews are heavy here in Atlanta. I remember when I first saw a stereotypical old Jewish man whining about absolutely NOTHING when I was in Walmart some years back. It was just like on TV lol it was hilarious. I also see alot of the orthodox style ones with the jew curl and what not.

:salute: Thanks breh. Had me thinking statistics was wrong. :mjlol:

The ones with the curl reproduce like Mexicans. If you got a lot now, your future will be full of them. Also, up here, they rely HEAVILY on social services, so a possible tax increase or cut in benefits for everybody else.

Old Jewish people are unintentionally hilarious, ngl. Their whining is a stereotype among Europeans. Iirc, i heard jews admit that's why they're such good comedians. Not my lane tho. :hubie:

Well luckily I'm living in the Stonecrest area, so I won't have to deal with that part of the BS lol. But they are definitely some characters though. Moreso than other white folks.

Pay attention @The ADD and everybody else. :ufdup:


This man makes his living in real estate (right?). I wouldn't lie to you and everything i say is sourced.


I use to but I’m not in the business no more but still pay close attention. Also Jewish landlords don’t only own properties in nyc. There was a documentary on Netflix of jew landlords in nyc even messing with tenants all the way in Virginia and Maryland from their Manhattan office.


Oh shoot the landlord was actually on Trump team. Forgot his name

:beli: There's a whole town in upstate NY... just read this shyt breh.

The median income for a household in the village was $15,138, and the median income for a family was $15,372. Males had a median income of $25,043, versus $16,364 for females. The per capita income for the village was $4,355. About 61.7% of families and 62.2% of the population were below the poverty line, including 63.9% of those under age 18 and 50.5% of those age 65 or over.
According to 2008 census figures, the village has the highest poverty rate in the nation, and the largest percentage of residents who receive food stamps. More than five-eighths of Kiryas Joel residents live below the federal poverty line, and more than 40 percent receive food stamps, according to the American Community Survey, a U.S. Census Bureau study of every place in the country with 20,000 residents or more.[6] A 2011 New York Times report noted that, despite the town's very high statistical poverty rates, "It has no slums or homeless people. No one who lives there is shabbily dressed or has to go hungry. Crime is virtually non-existent."[21] However, hundreds of incidents involving dissidents of the Grand Rebbe being stoned, their house and car windows broken, and their sidewalks stenciled with Hebrew profanities have been reported to the New York State Police.[22]

Kiryas Joel, New York - Wikipedia


:beli: They running a whole damn village in NYS like its biblical times and, tho I'm nowhere near them in proximity, we pay for it.

Be careful brehs. shyt bout to get spooky. :lupe:

Everybody want to move to the burbs to get away from :mjpls: now the same hood you left is worth more than your 3000sq house 20 mins away from the city :mjpls:.

And the sad thing is you go to any black economic group on Facebook and these folks are teaching people to leave the communities and build wealth the suburbs where poverty is rising?


:ohhh:

Y’all need to get rid of that mindset that suburbs=white

there are numerous suburbs in metro Atlanta with 60-90% black population and they’re just as dangerous or more dangerous than the city of Atlanta.

people don’t move to suburbs in Atlanta to get away from black folks. They move to the suburbs because of cheaper homes, they want to open a business, & it’s a shyt ton of stuff to do.
