Houston. If you don't mind seeing bodies strewn every few blocks and bobbing and weaving bullets, come to Chicago

Gangbangers are about to get into their busy season so I suggest you cop some body armor.

 

[IronFist]

This isn't even a competition.

Houston easily.

Like 40% of the black people I know got roots in Chicago and they real nikkas and cool af for the most part. Even had a couple fwb from Chicago
I dunno if the crime rate thing is true tho..


Breh that's like 70% of the decision right there
Plus from what I understand it's a more driveable city so Imma be sliding thru the streets in my entry level sedan blasting Pimp C and attempting to holla @ some females.
How much an 8th of green go for tho?

Word?
I was gon be around the Hyde Park and more south area so prob the high to mid crime areas anyway.
If I move to Houston I'd be able to avoid public transport so that probably makes it better.
Plus I always stay strapped in the car no seatbelt.

Hyde Park a great black neighborhood . Even before the gentrification . Cacs cant let us have shyt

But our Summers and Falls are legit as fukk, especially if you live in close proximity to the Lakefront.

who cares when you have to experience 90 days of winter and you can live in a city that doesnt experience winter weather no more than 1-3 weeks every 2 yrs

great to visit thats about it

Unless you're from out here and have fam there's no real reason for you to move out here from Houston

I don't plan on leaving but me and my girl discussed this and if we did make that jump, we'd be goin to Texas. We was looking at houses, researching and everything out there. Y'all got it compared to here by far, couldn't believe some of this shyt we saw for sale in y'all housing markets.

 

[O.T.I.S.]

Nah I wouldn't mind living in the Chi if I had a great opportunity to do so...

But honestly, Houston is a no brainer

 

[god shamgod]

There are black Chi communities that are great to live like Hyde Park, Maywood, Pill Hill, Kenwood, South Loop, Jackson Highlands, Oak Park, n others. But ofcourse you got "Chiraq" incredibly dangerous place like Austin, Englewood, Humboldt Park, Back of the Yards, New City, South Shore, Chatham n others. One thing tho I despise about Chicago is how segregated it is. Trust me, alotta people arent living in bad neighborhoods by their own choice






My breh told me about Houston honeys, fine af, down to earth . And the cost of living is great. Plus im in IT n the tech field down there is boomin

maywood aint nice

houston has better weather, but that shyt is too spread out for my taste. just like LA.

not tryin to live somewhere, where you gotta drive 2 hours just to get across town for work

also houston is lacking in public transportation.

 

[beenz]

when it comes to large cities, chicago is VERY affordable UNLESS you have to live in one of the most expensive areas.

 

[LezJepzin]

Houston, easily. Better food, women, weather overall, cost of living and job opportunities.

As a Cali breh, I'm not bout that Chicago winter life but I'd visit
