He's such a useless coward. I wish we had Mary Cheh advocating for us.


Not according to the Murch parents

It's just like the middle-SES Hill.


The Hill, regardless of SES, is nowhere near 85% non-white in 2016.


20003 alone is about 27K people and < %10 are school aged children. There are more seniors than school aged children. While Hill East is fast gentrifying it's not as whited out as you may think with 3:2 white to black ratio. You still have multi-generational households, plus neighboring boundaries for Payne, Miner and Tyler. It's not all dog parks, yoga and bike lanes (thank god!). Some of us do lament the loss of diversity underway


We need to act now to preserve the open air drug markets and corner stores selling blunts and singles! Life in the Hill isn't the same without the crunch of crack vials under your shoes and junkies defecating in your alley.


none of those things makes me cringe as much as seeing sheeple lined up for the latest [insert choice of cronut, barre, studio, crossfit, doggie daycare]



I can laugh at the man-bun-wearers as much as anyone, but anything is better than crack vials and defecating junkies.


it was in response to an ignorant comment taken straight out of the 90s. Even in gentrifying areas nothing described in that post actually exists on the Hill anymore. It's just stupid racist shit to say.


Have you been to the Starburst lately?


yeah and on foot ... it's not the Hill


Do you consider Payne to be a Hill school? Because it's boundary covers the Starburst.

Here's info for all of ward 6, including 20002, which has SH smack dab in the middle of it. Not saying that the Hill is "whited out", just noting that SH's population does not reflect the neighborhood, nor does EH for that matter.


Where's the info?

I knew my alley was on the way up once the sex, drugs, and defecation were gone. Now it's just peeing and a new cast of boisterous quasi-hipsters/proto-yuppies.
