why is it that the media potrays parts of LA like compton ,southcentral , inglewood and watts as ghettos. when I went out to cali I had to drive through many of those so called ghettos and to me they looked like polished suburia. (wtf) I just wanna know why cali is so quick to throw out the word ghetto when they aint never even seen one which they should be proud of. now i aint say cali is some fairy land but killa kali tends to extend the truth alot. I have to ask yall have you ever been to places like midwestern cities such as chicago st.louis detroit or eastcoast cities. yall have it made compared to other cities around the country better yet the world. let me know if Im wrong
go to e.27th and say that, i dare you

Those LA ghettos haven't been ghettos longer then u may think.....The midwest and east coast regions have been ghettos way longer and seem to always lack money to fix up those parts.

Alot of South Central actually has working class people....I have alot of family and friends that have good jobs and live right in Compton, South Central, Inglewood etc.....LA is a very expensive place to live and alot of people just wanna be in the city so even if u got a 50k a year job u still living in the hood in a place like LA...Not enough people try to move out to the suburbs...Everybody wanna be close to the action.

I've been up and down Cali and the worst looking ghettos I've seen in Cali is not in LA....By far the worst looking ghettos in Cali I've been to are Oakland, South and East Stockton, East Palo Alto, North Richmond and Filmore....The worst looking ghettos cosmetically are i Northern Cali, not in Los Angeles.

Out of state people are fooled thinking LA ghettos are so fucked up and they are not....But! Them hoods are very dangerous no matter how they look cosmetically....U can still get ur cap peeled going thru them parts so don't be fooled.....LA use to average 1000 murders a year back in the 80's so don't be fooled cuz of how it looks.

being a cali head to this day, i'll be the first too admit around here has the smoothest of the smooth when it comes down to suffering neighborhoods. And I have lived in souf richmond and portero hill jects but really us cali folks got it good compared to the crumbling civilizations and struggling communities worldwide.. por example: gary, detroit, flint, natti, st. lois, houston, new orleans, dc, miami if you ain't been past your own stoop look it up. Real talk I've been all around ain't nathen like Cali we got life good. Even the strugglers. God bless

I love this LA sunshine. I'm glad it's cool here. I don't want some run down, depressing Gary, Indiana looking shit..[/QUOTE

I myself have no idea what the original poster meant, but when you strictly look at asthetics, the midwest, their cities in general are some hard hit eyesores, in general. Not only do they have the gang and crime thing, but their economies have been devastated by the decline in manufacturing and white flight. So maybe that is what he is comparing, the simple asthetics?

Lol @ thinking nice scenery = non-ghettoness.

Perfect examples...Kingston and Rio De Janeiro.

Arguably the most beautiful places on earth, yet arguably two of the most dangerous cities on earth.

California cities have been hit with that same economic downturn. California is on the verge of bankruptcy. As a State we are damn near the hardest hit. Ask people from Vallejo, Stockton & Modesto about the economy.

This whole thread is dumb as hell. I ain't never heard anybody brag about how grimy LA is so I don't even know what samie is talkin bout on that one. LA is still infested with gangs, and dangerous for ppl that aren't used to that lifestyle.
