I know that's where you prolly came up, that's where you old friends are, but dammit when you move up in this world it's OK to upgrade your surroundings!

It's ok to want to put your kids in good schools
it's ok to want a nice house in a nice area
It's ok to want nicer things for yourself and your fam.
When you get to that point... the point where it's no longer viable to live in "da hood", it's ok to leave it and not feel guilty about it.
