"The GOAT Black City" The Official: ATL Discussion Thread

[Apollo Creed]

Nah breh if you're black the only part of Atlanta you should live in is the SWATS and Zone 3 or Zone 6. If you choose to live anywhere else in true metro area you're a fraud

Why are you so emotional?


This thread is for COA residents only

 

[AVXL]

Im not asking you to do anything. I literally said I dont care what happens to anyone else. Get out your feelings and enjoy the burbs

Nah I just see you throwing shots and criticizing black people who move out of the city. I rarely see you criticize the COA for having higher taxes than surrounding counties, or the COA not having enough first time home owner programs in place for minorities. You're noticeably silent on what role the city has to incentivize people to actually stay in the city and in historically black parts of the city...I wonder why

CTA makes an ass outta MARTA, they got twice as many lines and stations as we do, and they buses ain’t no joke. They coming every 5 minutes. A couple commuter lines that go out to the burbs too. They got long commutes tho, you probably just ain’t going that far out.

Hell ya and the 7 day pass only $3more than Marta. That burb shyt cool I ain’t gotta go that far but if Atlanta had that for places like McDonough, griffin, Alpharetta, etc that would be crazy.

They turnt on their too one nikka came on with a bottle of grey goose selling vials for $10

What’s your opposition to that?

I hate how Atlanta has control over the airport but it’s in Hapeville, C.P. and Forest Park.

Forest Park can use a lot more of that airport money

Breh CP, Forest Park, Hapeville don't have the resources, people or money to effectively manage the airport. The airport is the #1 economic engine in the state. There's no way those cities, even if they joined forces could manage it effectively. At best those cities should invest in building hotels, parking decks and getting tax credits to develop the areas of those cities closest to the airport...there is enough future growth there for all of those cities to eat

Hapeville and College Park has grown a ton in the past ten plus years.

When I was coming up in forest park all the other cities in Clay co used to make fun of us cause we were they dusty brehs & it’s literally nothing to do in Forest Park. It’s always been full of warehouses and truck stops since it’s right on the highway.

No forest park mayor has ever had vision to turn it to something more.

I never understood why black people care so much where other black people live. Like if I moved my family back to Adams Park are you willing to pay my mortgage or some shyt? I never understood that line of reasoning.

People should live where they want to live and living in a good, safe communities with good schools, low crime, etc should be a goal for everyone when they're thinking about finding a place to live. Choosing to live in an area strictly to preserve its heritage and history is a noble idea but it isn't always realistic

Hold up now...white people DEFINITELY care where black people live

ATL should get the airport because...its the fukking airport.

I mean its in Clay Co, but does Clayton get get the lion share ?

No.

My opposition to the cannibalization of the city is more fractured government and it makes it harder to push sweeping infrastructure and united public works projects

I dig that but they make it hard on purpose when a lot of the high paying jobs are in Alpharetta.

We all know exit 27/US 14/GA400 is bottleneck hell in traffic

I'm in Fair Oaks (Smyrna/Mar) and I went to my auntie/unc for Christmas and at the Black subdivisions in Sandtown with beautiful homes decorated with Black excellence. Near Westlake.

Then I got sad because I could never do that commute.

It’s so much black excellence near Westlake and Langston Hughes HS. My dream house in one of the subdivisions over there.

I think Dwight Howard owns one of the mansions over in that area

American Deli, A Town Wings, all the same shyt.

I went to the A-Town wings on Buffington Road in College Park one night after picking my brother up from his football game, and it was about 10pm. nikkas had a gun on the counter just to show any would-be robbers not to try them
