"Poll question: (Excluding NYC) what U.S. city has the most Blk transplants?"


  

          

I'm just gonna assume NYC wins any transplants completion across all races, regions

But out of the rest who has the most Black transplants?

I kno ATL has A LOT of Blk transplants, myself included, but I maintain most transplants here are from other parts of the south (which doesn't fit neatly with fuck them northeastern transplants narrative but that's another post).

However it always amazes me how many Blk Midwesterners I encounter down here, Cleveland, Detroit, KC and STL being the leaders from my anecdotal evidence

I mean, I get it, I suffered 4 winters in STL and besides the chi there are other negatives about Midwest cities that I won't list cause this ain't about bashing

But yeah it's a lot of them down here.

Does dc have more? La for all the aspiring entertainers?

Poll result (12 votes)
ATL (7 votes)Vote
DC (2 votes)Vote
Houston (0 votes)Vote
LA (1 votes)Vote
Other (2 votes)Vote

in the last 10 years i'd wager black folk were more likely to dip out of LA then move here

esp when the messican/blk beef was in full force around 05-09ish?

Of course we refer to them as those who moved there in the last 15 years maybe...and we rarely include folks who came here for college as a transplant.

how many of them are not from cali?

of course Long Beach State and Dominguez Hills are being touted as west coast HBCU now
but i think most of them are local SoCal enrollees

UCLA, USC, Pepperdine, CIT, etc aint getting many black enrollees tho
period.

NYC has a bunch of West Indians but not a lot of Blacks. It's bleeding Blacks in fact... I know you transplants will try and tell me something different as if you were there 10-20 -AND 30 years ago and can honestly compare. But ATl wins this hands down.

Black transplants b/c we get to throw shade in the process.

like: i know the answer ain't Los Angeles b/c it ain't enough trucks available to ship all enough weave down there to handle an influx of Black transplants.

fuck you.

about the city they now live in while constantly saying how much better it is where they're from.

if your hometown is that great and where you're currently at sucks so much, TAKE YOUR ASS BACK HOME.

especially for those that's been in the new city for 10+ years...
