Reply to comment by RowdySuperBigGulp in DAE feel like the city is about to explode and experience massive growth? by ticonderoga-
They probably mean that brown people and Asian people are the ones moving in. Some equate bad neighborhood as anything that isn't a white-only neighborhood. My brother-in-law is moving to Denver. We were watching videos on the city. Some guy has a 'bad parts of Denver' youtube video. He sounds like a white guy that has old rap songs in the background and basically just names all the black areas while in some cases doing a 'stereotypical black accent'. The only data he had was some of the areas have a whopping 4% unemployment. Yea, he posted that as a sign that the area was impoverished. So, plenty of people out there claim any black or brown area equals bad neighborhood.

And it’s funny because the block has been much much more quiet with the Chinese people moving in and the rowdy Irish people moving out. I got along with them but they had a habit of drinking through the night and playing music until the morning.
