The Cities Where African-Americans Are Doing The Best Economically 2018

[Easy-E]

Propaganda to make us feel like things improved under obama and Trump

I skimmed but it's worded in a way to deceive

Black home ownership is at 51 year low and millennials across the board will make leas than their parents

The black male unemployment rate in 35 major cities is at 45%

The UN just came thru and declared Alabama was as bad as a third world country... They are dealing with hook worm due to a lack of sanitation


....


Now, after all the fight we put up, 'Everything is okay?'

Boston was one of the most hostile cities I've been too. Nashville is cool for families but boring as he'll for singles unless you like honky tonk music.

Memphis is a much better city for black people. Nashville is a cracker town

Miami number 9

Its hilarious the d riding going on for tx cities, and down south cities. Its really not even close...the balt/annapolis/dc area is it...period.

And the coli laughs at jobs that pay an individual 70k a year

Washington, with its ample supply of well-paid federal jobs, is the metro area where blacks have the highest median household income in the nation: $69,246.

ain't no way Boston should be anywhere near this type of list

You can eat out if you got a degree

If we are just bringing up city limits, blacks make up more of the Boston population more than Houston. Those schools in Boston are teaching our brehs good

Facts. Low key, we just need more organization

This article wasn't about anything you're talking about.

It was explicitly about where black Americans are doing the best, presently.

Then what followed was black people about how well we're doing.

It's doing it's job. I'm all for great news. But, when the news to used to cover stuff up, I'm upset.

As a black male with inheritance and a parent readily available to support me financially, I don't look at my life as normal as I've got enough information to show that it is not for black people.

Damn, Dallas and Austin made the list but not Houston?

Wtf going on...

EDIT: Houston at 8 right behind San Antonio, Dallas ain't make top 10. Overall Texas looking good, but I'm kinda iffy about Austin being that high, never heard much about the black population in Austin.

Yeah. Austin and Black progression doesn't seem right.

I think this list changes a good bit over the next decade, depending on where Amazon goes for HQ2.

Wherever they land will lead to some brehs eating good and others being gentrified out of their city.

To me, they go to one of the following cities (in no particular order): Detroit, Atlanta, Dallas or Boston

Young middle-class black kid here...where do you think I should move?

where do you live now and what do you want to do

 

[UserNameless]

Good money in central Texas plenty of jobs and opportunities to start businesses. Gives a fukk about the night life?

If it means that much to you open a bar.

These guys always show how backwards their mindsets are in these types of threads

Atlanta, with its historically black universities and strong middle class, has long been described as the black capital of America, and its thriving entertainment scene has given rise to claims that it’s become a cultural capital as well. Entrepreneurship is strong, with some 20% of the metro area’s black working population self-employed, the highest proportion in the nation, and though median black household income is quite a bit lower than in the D.C. area at $48,161, costs are lower too. In-migration has slowed since the financial crisis, but the black population is still up 14.7% since 2010.

I fuxing love the DMV. Exactly why I left NYC for the DMV. I can go to bars and events where its all my people, damn near all professionals and working folk and such. And oh yeah the bread is wonderful. Im solo and well over the DC median, so life is good I guess...for me

My boy who works for Amazon was talking about leaving the DMV for Seattle. I was like breh wait till you visit and see how hard it is to run into black folks like your'e so used to here in DC. HIs ass was up there miserable.
