"Where are all these wealthy african americans?"

I am no more annoying than you with your prying questions. You rep african americans...thought you had some insight. Or does it limit istelf on bw/single mother/bedwenches.

You never skip a beat in those threads.

Nah...I was genuinely trying to spark a conversation on why wealthier african americans not reinvest on the city.

You were the one that was defensive:manny:

1. The ones that tried were either written out via legislation (Casinos) or flat out didn't have the equity to compete.
2. The ones that COULD HAVE ACTUALLY DONE IT moved they money out to the 'burbs and had no desire to come back and invest. Not even on a small scale.
3. The ones who are trying now are having SOME success but its much too late for the hot areas. Black folks can keep the Avenue of Fashion, Rosedale, Palmer Park, Chandler Park, the "Mile" roads and more and STILL it wouldn't match the simple geographical value of Downtown, Midtown, Corktown, Brush Park and New Center. Literally 5 neighborhoods have more business and equity than the rest of the city combined.

Comparatively, yes.
In terms of nationally, not really.

Detroit is still a cheap city. But rents in those areas are MUCH more than what you would pay in the other areas. I moved out to 3 bedroom 1 bath house with a roommate and paid $650. Moved to a 1 bed apartment dolo out here in New Center and pay like $525 and I got a STEAL.

It's too late for Downtown, its been bought up already. And the adjoining areas (Corktown, Midtown/Cass Corridor, Brush Park, West Village etc) are all being bought up too. If you didn't get in 4 years ago, you can't now anywhere south of I-94 and East of i-96.

So black people are just assed out? Soon every major city in this country is going to go the way of San Francisco, NYC, DC, etc. Guess I gotta keep looking for an untapped well
