Yes, if you OWN your property or in the process of owning, then stay or move but rent your house out.
Otherwise, you might as well leave, unless you're restricted to here(family, career).
So you rather see your own black folk suffer and paying hyper-inflated rents over owning properties in metro areas of the south filled with professional black folk?
Exactly. NYC is getting gentrified to the point that the structure of the city is in question. Theres not gonna be a middle class here in a couple of decades, and all those middle class jobs that keep the city running won't be filled. I mean making $40K in the city, you can barely support yourself, let alone a family.
Even people who can afford to stay are leaving. The price to culture ratio is dropping rapidly.
cats don't know. They think that rent and cost of living is going to drop somehow

you sound like a quitter
Quitter, no. A realist, yes. Holding on to a place that you don't legally own is
status at best.

If you don't own buy something. If you do own something the only reason to leave is if you don't care about making money.
If you stay you could make tens of millions of dollars more than you would normally had made in your life.
Moving to the south is an automatic loss. Your ancestors fled from there and you came crawling back because you were to weak to survive? Disgusting I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

believe me I know what I'm talking about
All of this would be fine, if the hipsters moving in would just say hi and hang out.
Uhh, only if you are in a financial or banking industry, and even then, it is still very slim. Very, very slim. Most people in their lives don't even make a million dollars, and unless you an innovator of sorts, what makes you think that you the exception?
LOL @ hating the south like they less than human beings when they somehow own homes and have a laid back lifestyle.

you have the mentality of a looser/quitter no wonder you want to move south.
what you doing to make millions? "Hustling?"
. Gentrification war has been won by the hipsters. No more of them goons on the street corners. No more blue collar workers working hard. No more middle class. I ain't a quitter, cause only quitters accept living in small boxes and think that it is prime living.
