You left off parts of PG County in Maryland. Hillside, NJ especially if we're talking per capita income (53% Black), average household income $67K/ year

Again...you are validating my original point. Just because black folk don't want to own homes doesn't mean we shouldn't nor does it mean it would help us when areas are gentrified.

And those neighborhoods you named as well to do areas...find the % of homeowners and I guarantee its high. Its one reason those areas stay nice.

You study this more than me. Clearly. So I'm not going to sit here and try to out stat you or out history you. But if we owned homes we could turn our own neighborhoods around.

And one thing I haven't seen you mention at all...which is the number 1 thing for families next to safety is schools. We turn our schools around and families want to move into that community.
