This place is said to be the most violent in the deep south. What u think about Prichard, Charlie?

[@CharlieBo313]

It's probably is, or at least right up there with the worst. Serious poverty too. I heard several gunshots being fired and some commotion nearby down one of those back roads, but I couldn't see what was going on. Not exactly a vacation destination lol.

Did you get to visit any at night? I grew up here but live in a different, nicer county now. My parents still live over there. When I joined the army about 8 years ago, they put up a barrier blocking over the bordering city chickasaw due to drugs and crime. My best friend from the army is from Missouri and he said east st louis is just a bigger version of prichard when I took him through. He didn't believe me until we got close to the entrance and then he quickly realized once we got shot at, this place is no joke lol.

This is everywhere in America. We do volunteer work in poor areas of my rural NC county, I've stopped being shocked by homes that haven't seen repair in years, but have lawns filled with cigarette butts and pepsi cans. One trailer we pass regularly has a huge trump flag flying next to it's front door, but part of the roof has caved in and is covered with a tattered tarp. Sometimes it's about bad choices.

It looks way better than the other neighborhoods he's shown. They deserve to be invested in. The place is clean, the kids seems respectful, the adults still say hello to strangers and looks like they are doing something productive not just standing around.

[@iProBrix]

@@suzy-qwoo6268 That’s southern people in general. Every southern “hood” is basically a regular black neighborhood with a little bit of a rough history but with friendly people, nonetheless. Put some money and better paying jobs into these places and they’ll be in much better shape.

PA is home for me. Full of pride and great people. Yes, it has had its struggles over the many years but such is the life for many cities/towns where there are no industries to generate income/revenue; not to mention corrupt officials/politicians. Hate to see the continuous decline and I hope it escapes gentrification.

I grew up in the Village back in the 80's. All the streets flooded back then too. We used to swim in them after a hard rain. It wasn't a bad place to live, just a bunch of poor folk trying to survive. Most of us ran together and there wasn't a big divide between races like it is nowadays. There was an equal mixture of black and white people. I miss my childhood.
