Black vs. Gentrified?
The real question is how are you visiting these cities? If you're out here on TripAdvisor reading "Top Places to Visit in [insert city]" then you're asking for your experience to be trash. People be out here visiting NYC and going to all the tourist traps and paying $20 for a picture with meth addict Elmo then say NYC is overrated
Lowkey between Tyler Perry and Pinewood it’s a lot of that work going on out here. Them freaknik dungeon family days are gone, the city done expanded.This plus Authentic vs. Hollywood
Dude what are you talking about.
Point to where you was at on a map.
Interior Bay, where 90% of the population lives, was specifically the word choice earlier. We have microclimates out here. Certain geographical features and proximity to the ocean shape (for better or worse i.e. San Francisco) affect everything.
Like @sfc415 once you get to suburbia on the other side of the East Bay Hills range, you're talking a minimum -10 degree temp drop at night and a +10 temps during summer days.
"Tunnel" rats staying out that way deserve to freeze and sweat anyway, but it's still top pickings in the country.
But Oakland? Any of the mid-major cities along the Bay inland? Again, one of the most liveable climates in the world. Living here will make you so so soft when it comes to dealing with anything less than B+ weather on either end of the thermometer.

All beach. Nothing like speeding up Biscayne on the jet ski looking at the skyline.Miami for SURE
IDK why some people go crazy for Miami.

Atlanta funny man. I have a good time everytime I go but everybody just always “on”That means don’t go anywhere
I swear I went to brunch at “Chef’s Up” (a restaurant) them folks were living their best life on the Grams - dressing like they’re going to a Super Bowl after party at 11am
It’s like this at the HIT museum too on First Friday.
It’s not really the places - it’s the mentality and persona. If you talk to some of these people, they make themselves seems more than what’s really going on.

like somebody said tho you just gotta be tapped in before you call somewhere overrated.

Yea I’m a family man now and Raleigh perfect at the moment for us...Atlanta ain’t for me unless it’s a mans trip or them panthers coming in town to do work.Yeah being a residence during my middle school and part of high school. Then coming back in 2003. Been here since. The dynamic of Atlanta as a whole, changed.
Totally overrated and now becoming overpriced.![]()

Hated living in NYC. Like with a passion
I already hated living in the city, but my time in NYC sucked hard.
Have had chances to move back, passed on all of them
Still trying to understand why yall say Miami is overrated. Are things overpriced and there isn't much to do?
