Are you white?

I did like Manchester, surprisingly it's a good looking city and kinda fun. It's got the most diversity anywhere in Upper New England and that was surprising (7% black, 7% Asian, 11% Latino)...

White as all hell and damn near middle aged to boot. :smile: Manchester is the biggest city in New Hampshire and definitely the most diverse as you mentioned. @patscorpio im sure you where thinking of Manchester earlier when you mentioned enjoying the nightlife in NH.

The seacoast where I live is a lot more touristy/small towns and white, though the diversity is definitely ticking up.

Utah is really fukking strange, it's like someone took the west coast of northern Florida and stuck it in a desert valley.....surrounded by the Rocky Mountains and littered with crazy Mormons....who all speak at least 2 if not 3 languages.

That being said, the only town Ive gone to that just felt all wrong to me and was more than just because of one thing or the other, was Houston.

Man, I have been their twice for a few days at a time and I wasn't feeling that place at all. All the wrong vibes. Its this weird showcase of Texas Largess wrapped up in the most urban sprawl Ive seen in the states. Nothing walkable, no downtown, being chased by aggressive homeless people on bikes, aggressive homeless people allowed to stand at the literal front entrances to two different hotels I stayed at, unfriendly ass people where ever I went, no eye contact when talking to me.

Thats a place I wasn't digging at all.

DC nikkas are weird. As much as I like DC the city, the culture doesn’t make sense to me. I’m from Philly. All the East Coast cities/states have a similar vibe. New York. Jersey. Delaware. Philadelphia. Even Baltimore is familiar. But DC got their own culture and swag down there. They don’t even listen to rap like that. They dress different. They talk different. GoGo is their preferred music. And for it being the Chocolate City, it feels more diverse as in a large percentage of the blacks are from Africa, the Caribbean and South America whereas in Philly, it’s pure ADOS blacks. It was jarring and took getting used to because I just assumed it would be a smaller version of NY and Philadelphia culturally but it’s not.

Uncertain grounds
it’s confuses a lot of OTers cuz the airport isn’t in the city of Hartford but when you land you see and hear welcome to Hartford :mjlol: it doesn’t make sense. Glad u enjoyed CT tho

Windsor Locks :scust:

Bridgeport, CT.

Bridgeport is a dumpster :scust:

Which is sad because it could have long term potential given its location. I was considering copping some property there and holding long term but im too shook

Lol the dances down here are different from y’all too. More funk-, bounce-, and r&b-influenced as opposed to hip hop-, breakbeat-, and house-influenced.

Most of the young nikkas nowadays listen to a lot of Rap music but GoGo still got a presence, even a reboot in interest amongst the youth thanks to Moechella.

The Black population is pretty diverse in DC and the DMV (DC area) in general but it’s still a strong number of ADOS Black folks. Plus, my hometown next door PG County, MD looks and even feels more Chocolate than DC now. DC itself still got a good number of Black folks but it’s just too many Cacs now for my liking. I think the only cities on the East Coast to rival the Black diversity out here are NYC and Boston.

Overall tho, DMV culture has always been different from the rest of the Northeast Corridor and even from the South. We just be doing our own thing and prefer it that way :yeshrug:

This one actually had kind of a bad back story. One of my more simp moments of the past. Skipped class to drive from NYC all the way to this city (20 fukking hours) for this older lady I was fukkin at the time. She claimed she desperately needed to see her family for a personal reason but had no car, couldnt afford a flight, none of her broke friends had a car, and I was the only one who could come to the rescue before it was too late. p*ssy was good tho.

To start, I did not see big downtown Dallas while I was there. It felt weird being in a city where people don't....you know....go outside. Everyone drives from place to place, and if you're walking you look like a psycho. Just weird to me, as a East Coast dude. No corner stores, no bodegas, No noise. Drive-in everything. Every place you need to get to is in a mall or plaza. Just a weird city to me. I can see myself retiring away here, but man, not for me at this point in my life.
Literally none of this is true :dead:


1. NYC to Dallas is a 24 hr drive at best
2. The rest def not a description of Dallas
