[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agreed. In my experience, Black neighborhoods are friendlier on the whole. I've heard that's because the Black population moved up here generations ago from the South. Whatever, as a White person, I learned to say hello to people on the street once I moved into a Black neighborhood. [/quote] I'm the DC near-native PP who grew up west of the Park. When I was growing up, white people also said hello to each other on the street, and when I moved back in the 2000s they didn't anymore. except the older generation. Definitely a change. I still blithely say hello to people even in my old neighborhood (and ALWAYS in my new neighborhood). In my old neighborhood I'm often ignored. Makes me kind of crazed, actually. [/quote] OP here - Thanks for your follow-up. Lots of people's lives always seem so busy now, perhaps even to say hello. Unfortunately. [/quote]
