Never been to Massachussets. Personally im not a big fan of New England. The people there are always rushing somewhere. I like it in the south. The people and the area. The worst place i have been to in New England was Harlem and Baltimore. Those places are not in the New England area |

The hell you looking for in Baltimore. Trying to feature yourself on The Wire?  To tell you the truth. . . . Yeah!. The Wire is my favorite show, so i wanted to see where all the action is. Mayne o mayne was in for a very RUDE awakening. Harlem isn't bad at all, it's actually way improved from previous years. Washington DC is worse than Harlem. Those places are bad, but I have to live in the city next to Compton which is Carson. I always hear stupid gangsters shooting each other up at all hours.  Compton. . . . hell naw. I have been to Oakland and i will never return. That place was the projects and Third Ward put together. |

Oakland is off the hook!  I agree, never return! Richmond is worse. |

@ Queenisha those places are off limits. If you venture behind Northeastern University, you need to start reciting your psalms.

Why do so many Somalis go to Maine and Vermont? When I'm in the Northeast, all the Somali's say they're moving there.  |

Same as why you find Cubans in Miami and Puerto Ricans in NY and Nigerians in Houston. They go where they find fit. Oakland is off the hook! I agree, never return! Richmond is worse. You don't have to tell me twice. Baltimore downtown neighborhoods are scary.

Harlem isn't bad at all, it's actually way improved from previous years. Washington DC is worse than Harlem. Thanks to Rudy Gulillani. I do like making fun of Harlem though cos it annoys someone I know  Seriously though, It has improved. It's New Jersey that has issues now. The annoying thing about Harlem is mainly being verbally harassed by neanderthals when all a girl wants to do is braid her hair for $35. Jeez. Must everything come with a catch. No mind oyinye. trying to call us New England. oniranu omo. |

Washington DC is worse than Harlem. Northeast and SouthEast DC to be precise. Even the Northwest area where the white house is ain't that safe either. The number of homeless people in their parks can fill a whole village. Never stay there till sunset,it's a scary sight with all these homeless folks walking around They are everywhere. All the homeless people in America head to DC for some reason Even in their McDonalds,there are scary homeless people all over the place |

It baffles me why the american media is so quick to report about poverty in developing nations when there are so many poverty stricken, homeless and hungry people here. |

Same with other countries. I have friend who is studying in Italy. Do you think her country is going to talk about the recent makings of The Pope or talk about how the kids use angel dust as a way to get through tough times? You be the chooser. |

I was going to start a thread on that but changed ma mind on a second thought. you would never see CNN or CBS show anything that's related to poverty in America whereas, there is SERIOUS poverty in America. they project the image of the country so positively without flaws that if you're not living there, you would be thinking America is heaven on earth. |

sadly most are drug addicts and the mentally insane. Most are veterans of war believe it or not. They say 75% of the homeless men were former soldiers who went cocoo from traumatic events they witnessed at war times. |

No they do it regularly. It's also sad that most of these homeless people are black esp in the DC area |

I've never seen it on my TV, the closest is showing people rendered homeless or the like due to some natural disasters but to show the real poverty as it is, i'm yet to see that |

That one that murder capital na Detriot is 90% black american and their crime rate is unparalled. Newark New Jersey is another area that before you move there,just go pick out a pink or blue coffin and a choice burial plot |

For peace of mind,keep away from the big cities. Move to the suburbs. |

The homeless problem in my city is bad too. We have this part of my city called "Skid Row", and I'm sad to say that the majority of the homeless there are Black. The really sad thing is, is that a lot of them are veterans from the Military that have been swept up by this unstable economy, and of course their bad choices throughout their lives |
