Honestly, if you have to ask Reddit, it’s probably not for you.
Edited to add: I lived in Trinidad in 2008-2009, my first year living in DC after college. I am white woman and loved it for a lot of reasons, didn’t love it for some other reasons. I also grew up in a 60%+ Black rural county, so that factored into my comfort level with living there. Before deciding for sure, I spent a couple of days walking around the neighborhood both during the day and at night to get a sense of it and see how people reacted to me being there. I would suggest you do something similar if you are considering neighborhoods you aren’t sure you’re going to be inherently comfortable in.
