The Bronx was really known as a gutter slum.

But when it came to raw fear, it was Brooklyn. Brooklyn just had a aura that was

overall NYC used to be bad as hell with their 2300k+ homicides a year. most people not from northeast cities dont realize how close and crazy the NYC boroughs were and ARE ....the amount of people going that hard(bad) is so crazy to look back on. nyc deserves so much credit but even their 400+ homicides is still impressive with the strict laws and cops everywhere....all that lower homicide stat proves is that the real are still going as hard and havent fell off. theres a HUGE drug game in NYC and people stilll fight for it and the fact is most that commit gun crimes dont get caught

the true fact is NYC still has the most active hoods in the country. try sell dope in their hoods YOU WILL get shut down its a huge difference between fukking around with people in tight areas compared to people in areas miles away...and by people i mean "nikkas" yeah i said it

BX was, is and most likely always will be the worst borough in the city. I think it has the most housing projects per square foot, nothing will change there as long as that is the case

As wild as that might seems, we had good times during those days. But not knowing if you were going to live or die day to day was a little sad as a young head.
