Yea but not like that any more though. I walked arounf south jamamica and st albans recently and nothing happened breh, this was like 2am. I"m not saying you're just that things have changed.

Man I love where Brooklyn is at now. I live in Clinton Hill in between Fort Greene and Bed Stuy. A lot has changed. More shops, more after school programs for the kids, more friendly neighborhood activities for people. I never got the notion of being proud of being from a place where death, drugs and bullets can ruin ya day. I'm glad I didn't have to worry about being robbed growing up. Not all of Brooklyn is grimey hood. It's only really East NY that's on some get inside before the street lights come on. Everywhere else you got some knuckleheads but since these crackas moved in, so have the police patrols.

You getting at them hipster girls. They ain't afraid of black folks like some others.

No, its not

Most of the BX, Brownsville, East New York, Far Rock, QB is still very rough...

QB and South BX are right on the cusp of being Manhattanized

it still goes down in crown heights, bed stuy, bushwick, LES, uptown

No


Generally, the rule is the closer you are to Manhattan the safer but with a population of 9 million shyt happens

It still gets pretty dangerous in Harlem n Uptown. nikkas just aint stupid with it like back in the 90s. On the low, gang activity and violence have been getting progressively worse. All this bang bang Chicago bullshyt is starting to influence the youth.

Didnt ya nikkas read that thread of tha Coli member almost losing his life getting robbed in the Bronx a couple weeks ago?

NYC is def pretty damn soft but thats good..im out there like 4 times a year and have walked thru hoods, seen hipster kids walk thru the jects in bushwick, bedstuy etc

but i was out in LA 2 weeks ago and my girl got her purse snatched and i chased dude, ended up on the wrong street and some mexican dude pulled a shotgun on me

this was in echo park too..an area thats supposed to be gentrified

oh yea also, the rental keys were int he purse and the car got stolen the next day

 

[Rominati]

One of my shorties homegirl from the Bronx went to a BBQ in Brooklyn this summer and ended up getting shot in the ass

 

[RicanFury]

yea theres like 4 bridges in harlem that take u right into the south bronx. fordham road is higher up than harlem but its still considered south bronx. fordham road crosses over into inwood which is more dominicans than blacks but still hood in its own way. inwood nikkas are more about hustling tho so it isnt as violent cause everybody trying to keep their spots from getting hot. my little cousin just got robbed in inwood 2 weeks ago for his phone tho

wrong. fordham rd is north bronx.

LES? i have a cousin that lives laguardia houses (projects near the fdr drive) and says it has gotten better throughout the LES and i lived in astoria near LIC and i never heard of anything bad goin on in LIC other than QB lol

 

[RicanFury]

alot of parts of NYC you dont wanna get caught out there at.

 

[ManBearPig]

I would assumed NYCs rapidly declining crime rate would be an accomplishment more so than a lost
