You live near housing projects now?
It's complicated.
I live in a historically segregated neighborhood. Just north of a divide where minorities legally couldn't move south until about a decade after civil rights.
So I live in an area that's basically in the middle of being gentrified. It's got mostly older black residents who managed to keep their houses despite the encroaching gentrification. If you go maybe 3 blocks north or east from me it starts getting really sketchy, so I'm pretty close to those areas, but in a nicer part where the money from the south has started creeping in.
Most of the non-chain businesses around me are family owned by either older black families or asian families who lived through our grew up with or lived through pre-civil rights or post-civil rights backlash.
