Can you explain to The Coli why only one Black person lives in Cacland Park, Dallas to this day?
Can @BrothaZay go out there and chill without being harassed by the Cacland Park police?
Can you explain why you want to live in a cac neighborhood so bad?

I don't. I'm just illustrating that point that there are pockets of extreme
in and around your beloved Dallas.Stop shytting on other people's cities in other threads when you are living in a city in which nikkas know their place and don't do anything to try to change the power dynamics.
I ain’t know so many folks on here hated Dallas
It’s fine by me, got a lot of potential IMO
Nobody hates Dallas. Folks hate nikkas like @BrothaZay with all his ridiculous statements and rehashing threads like this one over and over, again.
Most brehs on The Coli from Dallas are cool, as are other brehs from other cities around the United States.
Atlanta is a writer city than Dallas. You make no senseI don't. I'm just illustrating that point that there are pockets of extreme

Negro, please. Atlanta is a Black city. And its neighboring cities/counties are just as Black.
You Dallas nikkas are overrun with Mexicans. Just because cacs don't live in the city of Dallas doesn't mean they aren't the majority. Cacs don't live in the city of Dallas. They live in Plano, McKinney, Frisco, Richardson, Murphy, etc. which border Dallas.
Black people are in the city of Atlanta and the neighboring cities/counties.
That's why Atlanta feels even Blacker when you step foot out the city limits. Whereas Dallas feels even whiter when you step foot out its city limits.
I think because middle class incomes haven't risen there since the Great Recession. I routinely see jobs paying way more money in Raleigh or Atlanta than in Charlotte. And if you get a high paying job there you better keep it. Very little churn in the job market keeps wages low.i don't understand how the homeownership rate isn't high with the homes are so cheap

Why It’s So Hard to Get Ahead in the South
CHARLOTTE—Shamelle Jackson moved here from Philadelphia, hoping to find work opportunities and better schools for her four children, who range in age from two to 14. Instead, she found a city with expensive housing, few good jobs, and schools that can vary dramatically in quality. “I’ve never struggled as hard as I do here in Charlotte,” Jackson, 34, told me.
Charlotte ranked dead last in an analysis of economic mobility in America’s 50 largest cities by the Equality of Opportunity Project, a team of researchers out of Harvard, Stanford and Berkeley led by Stanford’s Raj Chetty. Children born into the bottom 20 percent of the income distribution in Charlotte had just a 4.4 percent chance of making it to the top 20 percent of the income distribution. That’s compared to a 12.9 percent chance for children in San Jose, California, and 10.8 percent change for children in Salt Lake City. These statistics are troubling because mobility is essentially just a formal term for the American Dream—the ability to find a good job, provide for children, and do better than one’s parents did. Rather than making it into the middle class in Charlotte, poor children, who are majority black and Latino, are very likely to stay poor.
The rich are segregating themselves off from everyone else
The disparity shows how rising income inequality has fed higher wealth inequality, as high-income Americans earn still higher amounts of money, which they can then use to bid on homes. That, in turn, allows them to earn even higher returns than housing does for everyone else.
Indeed, research released this year suggests that the primary driver of higher housing prices in well-off neighborhoods is not bigger homes or renovations but simply people bidding against one another to live in those areas.
Doesn't matter. Ain't goin way over there for anything.

Austin and San Antonio? Especially San Antonio? Were you in Grand Prarie or Arlington or some shyt? For Black folks, Dallas>>>>>>both cities.fukk Dallas.
Nikkas from Dallas are weird and try so hard to get others to respect that dusty ass place. Been there multiple times. Wasn’t impressed. Austin, Houston, El Paso, and San Antonio are better cities in the state of Texas. And Detroit will always be “The D” and true “D-Town”, btw.

Lots of folks. Up in here in DC, you would here lots of folks thinking Fort Worth is in West Texas and or people naming things in Fort Worth but attributing it to Dallas. I vastly prefer Dallas to Austin, FW, or SA. I think you underrate it. More urban than FW, more green space, etc. FW has the downtown tho.Only people who willingly move to Dallas for reasons other than job opportunities/relocations are country nikkas from Arkansas, Kansas, Northern Louisiana, etc. who see Dallas as their version of NYC/LA.
What person doesn't know that Dallas and Ft Worth are in close proximity to each other?
I do like Houston as a city better tho. But i would rather live in Dallas than any southern city not named Houston, Atlanta, and Miami.
I'm not saying FW > Dallas. I'm saying Dallas needs FW to even be lumped in the same convo with Houston, Atlanta, Miami, etc.
DFW gets compared to those places, not Dallas on its own. When people think of unique "Dallas" culture, they are really thinking of FW Culture. When people think of "Dallas", they falsely assume that there's cowboy shyt, western-oriented shyt, etc. That's FW, not Dallas.
Dallas is JFK murder site, Tex-Mex, Dallas Cowboys and shopping.
Can you imagine how crazy poppin' Atlanta, Miami or Houston would be if they each had another fairly large city within a 30 min drive?
