In tired of all the bad publicity that we get. That shooting on Edmondson Avenue was on CNN yesterday.
It's because its the last area that has valuable land. You spread negativity to the outside world, that keeps prices down, but to those in the know see what is coming up the pipe line, and want the property for cheap, this is happening now in white areas. You know who is next. This same thing happened in Brooklyn. The first area to get gentrified was Williamsburg, not a black area, but it relaxed people to move to other areas. Once Barlcays opened up, it was a wrap!.
After Philly & Baltimore, there is no where to live comfortably in such prime real estate. Baltimore is close to philly(over 5 million in population in the metro), D.C.(5 mil. in the metro), NYC(8 mil.) and Boston(over 4 mil.). Don't forget Baltimore itself is surrounded by Howard country, Baltimore county, and Harford county, that is at least 2,000,000 in population. Baltimore is prime real estate that is going for cheap due to bad publicity, and the large amount of blacks which this country deemed people that are the opposite of wealth, and the image you think of when you think of wealth itself.
