When you get "established", mainly speaking of when you get married, have kids, and are done with school, where would you prefer to live? Do you want to live in a majority black neighborhood, something mixed, or would you want to live where it's barely any blacks? Be real and speak your mind.

I would love to live in a progressive predominantly black community. The problem a lot of neighborhoods that start out being the place upwardly mobile blacks go is that once the ones that are about something move in, here come the vagrants. And most black people won't call the police and say get this person out of my neighborhood the way a white person would in the same instance.

well...now I live in a nice, quiet, and racially mixed upper middle-class neigborhood...we have black people, asians, and white folks...but the school I go to is like 98% black (2000 students) lol...so I guess it kinda balances out... but there are these two neighborhoods that I live near called "Smoke Rise Farms" and "Doe Chase"...those houses average about $500,000-$1 million...me and my parents toured the neighborhhood and some of the estates last year...I've never seen houses like that up close...it's like something you'd see off of cribs...I'm talking about MANSIONS...and the neighborhood is like 90% black...that's where I hope to raise my family (or somewhere similar)...once I establish my medical practice

All this for $500,000 -1mil.... You couldn't get a mansion with that out this way. Maybe a two-bedroom condo. I want to live in a VERY diverse neighborhood, where whites are the minority. I love neighborhoods where the signs outside of stores have all kinds of languages on them.
