Eastside Atl -
Only places I'm feelin uneasy in, are Philly, Bmore, CHI, Newark, Camden, and a couple other places. Obviously, all those numbers are one murder, too many...:francis:


But, ATL just don't give me those "trenches" vibes, like other places, I've been to, do. :hubie:

Obviously, you're aware, nggas are from EVERYWHERE, but u just move accordingly. That's not to downplay how nggas in ATL get down, either, but in other cities, you can literally feel it in the air, or around the corner, after a certain time. You know you gotta move a certain way, or have your grip in reach. Those numbers are high, but light, in comparison to other places, if that makes sense. The murder game, is on a different level.


Facts

Atlanta is still mostly a working city where ambitious and progressive black folks can build with a network of like minded folks doing the same.

Yea it’s more violent than previous years but that’s a symptom of rapidly growing city bringing in transients from all over in a post pandemic world .

Its still plenty of black spaces here that don’t bring any smoke. Just folks vibing and building with each other.

You probably don’t go to the trenches. Atlanta definitely got as much hood shyt as you want. I can definitely drop you off somewhere if you need to “feel it”
I get what he's saying. Not that ATL don't got hoods, but you gotta go lookin for them before you find yourself there. Cities like Newark Bmore are small enough to where you need to keep your head on a swivel at all times. ATL is much bigger to where you can move around easily and not get into any trouble if you just minding your business
