Financial circumstances forced me to buy a townhouse in a predominantly black area, upwards of 90%. Guess what? Most of the residents are owners and accept me as a member of the neighborhood. In six years I've had little problem except for the theft of an American flag and my front door welcome mat,plus a break-in by juveniles who took nothing.I also had a minor (peaceful resolution when parker moved her car)confrontation with a next-door renter when I honked because one of his visitors had parked in my assigned space. All in all, not too bad.
Give it time.. LOL!
