Living in the projects/poor quality school districts.....why not just move?

[DarcSkies]

Fairly obvious.. some people dont have the means.. whether its savings/a job that pays enough, may not be privy to certain information that could help them move.. others have no desire, comfortable where they are at dont know better dont want better.

Some people just cant pick up and move.. not matter what the situation is.. and once upon a time some of these neigborhoods weren't the neighborhoods that they are now.. you can chalk that up to a multitude of factors..

^ this.

And this is just another cracker making a "it's all u nigger's fault and I'm too white and stubborn to consider other factors and no matter what answer I get I wont be satisfied" thread.

 

[thehonorable]

Yeah. I mean all people are doing is being lazy. Thats the whole reason why ghettos exist. Becuase people just dont have the will power to move out of them

Thats exactly it.

it take about 3000 dollars to move. first month, last month, then moving fees. we already live check to check with bullshit ass bills and by the time we save up the money, something happens like the car break down or somebody get sick or needs to borrow.

it aint easy. Ive never been thru it, but i know it goes on. Then you gotta find a good hood. I dont want to live amongst white people and i want to live in a hood in my city with mostly black people. not saying that im gonna be "neighborly" but i know what i "would get" by living with my peoples.

it just aint that easy.

and moving into a house, its way more household bills monthly that renters dont even have to deal with.

its a process. alot of planning. and wont happen when the idea sparks your mind.

dont see the point in making a point when its already been done 3x already.

Some are conditioned. When they tore the projects down here in the Chi and moved people around a lot of them still returned to the projects. This one young lady that was 23 and had 4 kids said it was too quiet where she was and not as chaotic, so she still went to the projects. Just last month they had to put a lady and her 6 kids and some of her grandkids out of Cabrini Green. She was refusing to go and she said "this is all I know, I'm scared of what's out there"

Who would've thought the solution was so simple.

This shit is groundbreaking.

u talkin bout the last family that had to leave?

 

[king hassan]

Yeah. Lady was 51 years old and moved into Cabrini in 1991. She even had grown ass kids living in a 3 bedroom. You would think that all those grown people and they could pool their money together and move out, nah, they used to chaos

 

[sammm]

not everybody can just up and leave....

they are there for a reason.

some dont have the finances to move to a better location.

A lot of times they do, these be the same ones with expensive clothes, cars, electronics and all other types of bullshit. They just content on where they are

 

[gorilla]

It really all depends....We all know there are some who don't want to move for various reasons but there are some who can't afford it. You gotta remember, while there are housing programs, the owner's of property still have to be willing to accept that. And let's face it, a lot of them ain't tryin to mess with that. At least in my area I don't see too many sec 8 accepted properties for rent. Then you got the ones who work hard and are caught in the middle - don't make too much for assistance, but not enough for suburban living.

thats not the case for most of the people living in the hood.

i mean, i never lived in the hood but im sure if i did i would try to get out but with out being financially stable its not much for me to do right?

its also about priorities those people who have authentic gucci and louis, driving a luxury car and got the latest ipad and still stay in the hood they have their priorities all fucked up.

also, some people have a weird relationship with the hood too especially if theyre family was raised there.

they have "loyalty" to the hood so they feel they shouldn't leave.

 

[Chi-Town Bully]

They stay in the hood because they cant afford to leave.

u sure? cause i was reading about that story in this newspaper and she said she didn't move out cause the place the CHA was trying to give her was supposed to be shut down..it was a dope house with broken windows, no child guards, tiles in bedrooms were broken, etc..i dont kno the whole situation tho...

 

[truth spitter]

nah. the thread starter is right.

yall are giving the logical explanations of why people dont in most situations, but yall are making it seem mentally and physically IMPOSSIBLE to better ones situation.

and im black and all that so miss me with it, man. it is what its.

some niggas DONT have the mental capacity, self motivation (and fuck, your KIDS should be enough), determination, and inner strength to better themselves. some niggas are lazy. point blank.

stop making excuses for these niggas.

this is true for alotta niggas but I dont thk this describes the mother in Ohio

He's basing his discussion off the mother in Ohio....in this case, she was in the process of bettering herself, and the lives of her children to get them out of the "hood". She was 12 credits shy from graduating college, and with that the hopes of obtaining a position that would enable her to have the funds to get up and get out. So, while what you are saying may ring true for some, in the case that he is basing his theory on, its a moot point.

so she had enough money to go to school herself but not enough money to move for her children to go to a good school? Your really reaching .

Financial Aid maybe....Sallie Mae possibly....did you think of that?

 

[Cutler 26 INT's LOL!]

Ya'll actin like it's easy to just up and move like that.

His parents paid for his college education. He doesnt know about anything like that. Pretty obvious.

You know nothing about me...and I paid for my college education. Thanks for assuming you know anything about me though.
