I live in East Oakland, CA. Its a major city with a big sea port in northern CA and very close to San Francisco. Its a predominantly black American city with a relatively large Nigerian community. its the home of hip pop in California and great rappers like Tupac, MC Hammer, Keyshia Cole and other East Coast rappers were born and raise in Oakland, CA. The crime rate is high in West Oakland but its relatively safe in East Oakland and surrounding counties or towns. A Nigerian lady was fatally shot to death 2 years ago in Oakland. however, I think the crime rate in Oakland has reduced because a new police chief was employed by the City Mayor this year. Oakland, CA is not a bad place to live tho because it has a very high nice and friendly black population. I have never really experience act of violence personally but last year a man and his wife was shot to death closed to my house and my EX- girlfriend's cousin was also shot to death last year. The problem in America is that it is very easy to get a gun. 1 Like |

Afam4eva:No. most blacks in East Oakland are not that rich and are more like medium income blacks. Atlanta and DC is the 'Mecca' of rich and successful blacks. In CA, most rich blacks are located in southern CA ( Greater Los Angeles Area) in cities like Carson and Torrance. while cities like Oakland, Compton and Watts have a high number of low income blacks 2 Likes |

Same with low income white neighborhoods. Pooor people have more propensity to become criminals. That's why cities like Baltimore, Detroit, Cleveland and New Orleans always make the list of the most dangerous cities in America. 2 Likes 1 Share |

sheniqua: Afam you can see Baltimore is not a place for you to settle with our wifeI think Baltimore is not really bad. But I will never advice anyone to move to Michigan State. Detroit has the highest unemployment rate in America; the unemployment rate is like 40% and the city of Detroit is currently bankrupt and cant pay its bills. Plus the crime rate in Michigan State is really high. 2 Likes |

Things can only get worse for Detroit except something is done. 1 Like 1 Share |

I heard houses are cheap in Flint and Detroit (Mich). Imagine buying your dream home cheap . I once visited a college friend who lived in one of the Kodak city while in school . See huge mansion between 35-90k. Nice colonial mansion At some point in history, the Kodak guys lived there, built the homes with Kodak money Past glory. I envied my friend till I sat down to her stories of gunshot at night and PTSDs. I met a Somali family who bought a home for 1 dollar. A married guy with 9 children and wifey does not work. He is planning to upgrade. The area is bad but i'm sure to him it is better than Somali. You must have strong head to live in bad neighborhood. May God help HIS children. |

Allohrandy: That last statement is the problem. If they can amend that law, crime rate will be low. |

Allohrandy:True that... But then drug-fueled violent crimes in Atlanta is location-based. Areas towards the South-Side of Atlanta are more prone to violent crimes, and areas to the North are where the more successful folks live and these are more secure. 1 Like 1 Share |
