[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not to hijack this thread but as an African-American, I  wholly agree with the sentiment of other posters.  I would never retire to a town where there aren't others like myself.  No explanation necessary.[/quote]

I was going to say the same thing.  I think there's probably a lot of overlap in where Jews and AAs would choose to live.  As an AA, I like to live in areas that have at least 10-15% AAs.  If I had my druthers I would always choose large coastal cities (and so far that's worked out, both West and East Coasts).[/quote]
The trend is for AAs to move south.[/quote]
There is not enough money in the world to make this AA move to Mississippi or Alabama.  DMV is as far south as I will go and even certain southern areas of Virginia are off my radar.  I didn't feel this way three years ago.[/quote]

Aren’t a lot of people moving to places like Atlanta, Nashville, and Houston? NOT Mississippi and Alabama[/quote]

Nothing wrong with Huntsville Alabama and Oxford Mississippi has a lot going for it.  My experience is the south is a lot less racsist than the mid Atlantic and northeast.

No and No. Not only are those places very difficult for a Jewish person to live their public school systems are horrible. Alabama 49th in the country. They would consider reelecting Roy Moore. And their thoughts that women are second class citizens. No thanks. The mid Atlantic and Northeast are nothing like either of those in terms of racism. [/quote]
