Sad but true. I’ve noticed in my travels, in city after city, that Martin Luther King Blvd. is located in a bad neighborhood. Not politically correct to say out loud, but sometimes there are inconvenient truths in life.

Back when comedy allowed for a small amount of intellectual honesty, Chris Rock had a joke about it:

"Martin Luther King stood for nonviolence, but if you're in any city in America and you're on Martin Luther King Boulevard, there's some violence going down!

If a friend calls you on the telephone and says they’re lost on Martin Luther King Boulevard and they want to know what they should do, the best response is 'Run!'"

LOL, but true. For your own safety, avoid Martin Luther King Blvd.

Is there any city with a street named for Dr. King, in which that street runs through a middle class or nicer part of town??? Any at all???
