Not my style.
I have family on my mom's side in Atlanta...that moved there from NJ via VI...but everywhere I've been to in the South I've really disliked and had real bad experiences in. So no thanks.

it's like 20 minutes from penn station if you take the LIRRI just don't see Jamaica getting gentrified like that. Its not that close to Manhattan either. I don't see the value.
How y'all plan to take advantage of this?
Barclay center is no where near Jamaica
You have no idea what you are talking about.
The reason why real estate is a mess is because all the new money foreigners are buying up/renting property. So it pushes everyone else out further and further. There are sections of Jamaica that are beautiful as hell.
So Ya'll going to have a second great migration back to the south?
We saved ya'll a plate this new years.![]()
Exactly. You can get to midtown in 25-35 mins what is breh talking about?
Make sense. That post was all in fun and was more so aimed at us African americans.It's a lot of strong African immigrant communities up north especially like New York and like the DMV.Not me.
I'm African, and from my travels to Houston for summer research internships, i've come to realize there is no place in the South with a strong community of my culture there is up here. Plus i have no family down there.
It's a lot of west indians here. That's for sure.Why y’all pretending like there aren’t hella Nigerians in Texas and West Indians in Florida
St. John's area always been asian and jewish. Where you get Arabs from?
No thank you.So Ya'll going to have a second great migration back to the south?

It's a few Ghanaians here in Florida. One of my best friends in HS was Ghanian. His name was A- Lo-Dai (i don't know how to spell it) but it's not like a big community of them here. Like it is up north.There were a hella lot of em in Houston from my time there and I have all love for my brothers.But I'm a Ghanaian, and I found very little of my own countrymen down there during my research program.
Next comes a Chipotle, Panera bread and a TargetA Starbucks is the first horsemen of the gentrification apocalypse
