- Start date
Washington, dc 
the rapid development going on there is crazy. U street, H street, SW waterfront, shaw, Anacostia.
all areas that were overwhelmingly black 25 years ago have been turned into one big whole foods.

Washington D.C. will continue to skyrocket. It will become the "San Francisco" of the East Coast.
NYC will stabilize somewhat.
Philadelphia will start to gentrify as "Millennials" and "Gen Z" (white kids) realize its like Brooklyn but, cheaper.
Chicago will start to gentrify for the same reasons as Philly. Major world city. 40% the cost of New York.
Atlanta will no longer be a cheap place to move to.

What places will go down?
Chicago is a city that is actively losing citizens, can't imagine it's poised to blow up...
DC was the murder capital, had a mayor that got caught smoking crack and Wayne Perry was out there executing nikkas in broad daylight
Now it's one of the most gentrified cities in the USA
It may not be 5 years but, before long they gonna push all them drill nikkas outta there and Chicago is gonna be a hot spot
The south has a lot of potential to grow.
The South and Midwest are the last regions in American left for growth. Everything else is overpopulated and causing cost of living to go up.
Charlotte already had its surge.
I'd say Rock Hill, SC is up next as people look to commute.

It’s already happening. Whole Foods in Englewood now, Mariano’s opening up in other hoods. White folks starting to pop up in areas where they wasn’t before. And the new development from the Loop is creeping further and further south. Been saying for years Chicago is next up. You can’t find another city in America with the amenties Chicago has for that cheap of a COL. The people who pull the strings realize it too. That’s why they flood the media with “Chiraq is horrible” stories to scare folks away while they buy up everything. I bet you in the next 10 years Chicago will be the next it city. Pop culture wise the same thing that made middle America yokels want to move to Brooklyn when they grew up is happening now with Chicago. Shameless, Chicago PD/FD, The Chi, Drill Music, constant drubbing in the media.....trust that plays a factor in it too.
and that obama presidential campus that's getting built.
good deals to be had too.

Its already going up in Atlanta. You can’t find a decent spot in the city for less than $1300-1500 a month anymore. I realize that’s not a lot to the NY and DC brehs, but a decade ago you could easily find a place to lay your head for under a band in town. Nowadays that money gets you way the fukk out in the metro fighting traffic everyday or in town in a sketch area with brehs trapping and robbing
