Black folk are moving to the burbs in droves and white people moving back to the city. Add in immigration, yeah...I can believe it.

Both. ADOS are still returning south and we're being drowned out percentage-wise by immigration (both legal and illegal).

So what's the 20 year end game looking like in terms of Black population in the most Black populated cities?

Black folks moving to the suburbs is the wrong move.


Suburbs are insolvent economically.

I've been noticing articles for the past few months mentioning how the suburbs have become a trap as of late. White flight has backfired on white people and they're kinda stuck in the suburbs, even though they want to flee back to the city.

Check out the book "Strong Towns" or a similar book.

Ehh, where are they stuck? They’ve taken back cities like Oakland/SF, DC, parts of Chicago, NY/Brooklyn and parts of Atlanta. Gentrification been going on for 20 years now, and the biggest portion of that has been them buying up property in minority neighborhoods where most the people were renters or couldn’t afford to keep property in the family when someone passed

Expanding economic opportunity to the suburbs would be too costly without private investment.

Both choices are traps if you're focusing on big cities and their outlying suburbs.
Black people taking their bankable human capital to affordable areas and setting up shop would be huge, but also a lot of work.
Risk hard work for building a better community in twenty years or stay in problem areas?
Moving adjacent to a small college town in a strategic locale and setting up shop with some tangible skills and build a tight network.
