I've seen some pretty scary ghettos from Los Angeles to Miami and on to San Juan, Puerto Rico. I think the "caseríos" in Luis LLorens Torres, La Playita and La Perla in San Juan are some of the worst ghettos I have ever seen. But recently I spent a long weekend in New York City. Don't get me wrong because I loved every minute in New York but my relatives live in the Tremont section of the Bronx and I attended a wedding in Bedford Stuyvesant in Brooklyn. These areas were truly frightening in the sheer scope of poverty. I am Rican so I was not hassled in the Bronx but some neighborhoods were pretty tough and I would not want to venture out at night by myself. I have been in some rough neighborhoods in East LA and once walked around Compton in South LA. West Miami and Hialeah are like the ghetto areas of Los Angeles with mainly 2 story apartments and yards with trees so a person doesn't feel as threatened in LA and Miami. San Juan is even poorer but New York city is much more condensed and just seemed worse even if it is not.

To each his own indeed! You think only fratboys and gangbangers can enjoy Baltimore. That gets a LOL from me.

How Many Gays Has New York City? | The New York Observer (http://www.observer.com/node/32560 - broken link)

P.S.

I don't think New York is lame. New York will always be the best in terms of a lot of things. What I think is lame is the attitude that a lot of New Yorkers have. You know, "I'm from New York, we are the biggest and baddest, we've seen everything..." The truth is, for people who have lived in NYC their whole life have seen nothing but that, the 5 boroughs. You have to venture outside of your box and see the rest of the world. And in this case, there are dozens of cities that are much more ALL AROUND (see how I emphasize that) ghetto, impoverished and dangerous than New York.
how smart do you sound? are you trying to start a argument you wont win???

nyc is has 8 million people so no duh its natural numbers of gays will be higher , but percentage wise san fransisco has themost gays in the country so your point was really pointless.

AND P.S

GET OF nyc case you and all the other people always come on this forum with that same goofy story of how new yorkers think they are.

are you going to do nothing about it but complain on a forum all your life???

and also what makes you think new yorkers dont travel?? is this what out of towners like you think ? that us nyc people just stay in the 5 boroughs all day long??

well keep thinking that

out of towners always making false info about new yorkers llmaoo
