Bakersfield

Probably the worst place to move to.

I’d rather live in Dino or hemet again before living there. IMO the closer you are to riverside or Rancho the better.

 

[Ol’Otis]

I figure it’s probably more expensive now than then. They can’t move back unless they win the lottery.

Black folks should’ve held on to South Central.

Now all the Hispanics got all the money coming from the rising property rates. They can actually make the money that black ppl missed out on by selling for a nickle.

I agree
It went from 85% black to just 28%

LA as a whole was damn near 20% Black at its Peak. There was a time LA and NYC had identical black percentages in the 1970s. LA used to be Black AF relative to its size. I saw that in 1970 or 1980 Los Angeles as a whole was 18-19% Black African American and NYC was like 20-22%. So I can only imagine how black the actually black designated districts like South Central, Mid-City, Jefferson, West Adams, Leimart Park, Long Beach, Watts, Compton, Inglewood, Crenshaw, Slauson, Altadena, etc was back in the days from 1970-1990. That’s a 20yr run of the 2nd largest city in America and the largest county in America being Black AF relative to its size. LA probably felt like ATL back then.

Black folks were fleeing to LA at one point. That’s how Tom Bradley became mayor.
