[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]this happens all over the country as areas redevelop and become more desirable it's really just a class thing I wish there were more middle class and higher black folks coming back to DC vs PG county to make this less of a racial issue [/quote] We are a middle class (250k HHI) black family and would love to come to DC from our hot nova neighborhood. The areas we think are most similar to where we live now are way too expensive in DC. It still comes down to racial wealth inequality. Its also ingrained in the housing system, down to racist lending practices and house appreciation rates still happening today. I truly hate it all, but have no way to escape it. [/quote]
