LOLI'm not an expert on LA, but the impression that I got from the first season was that his neighborhood WAS what would have been considered a "nice" neighborhood. Franklin is the one that caused it to go downhill.
I still remember seeing a group of girls bullying another girl with this song at recess in like the 3rd grade . Found out later it was probably true
After watching that episode, this was first song that popped in my head
Early 90s was crazy.
me too famFlashbacks of:
- All of the single moms this created
- The mysterious, dark abandoned houses with lots of traffic
- multi-colored vials on sidewalks
- being offered Audi's for $500
- The break-ins.....missing VCR's and TV's
The first scene of the series was a happy ass neighborhood with Franklin I think riding his bike.I mean, in the first season they drew a big contrast between the neighborhood Franklin lived in and the poor neighborhood that his mother was selling houses in. She made enough money to send him to an expensive private school. They weren't living in a "bad" neighborhood at all. Look at it now, in the credits.
The neighborhood Franklin grew up in looks nicer than most in la but at the time and now it’s still home to crip gangs. I think the show made things look slightly better than they really were when it first started just to get the point across on how drastic crack corrupted the area. The crazy thing is families do have decent living situations in la with nice houses but the crime and gangs are still thereI mean, in the first season they drew a big contrast between the neighborhood Franklin lived in and the poor neighborhood that his mother was selling houses in.
