Gentrification. Blacks aren't being "pushed" out, they're leaving due to economics. A home that may have originally cost them $20,000 can be sold for $750,000; they move east to the suburbs, buy a better home for half the price and enjoy the profits. Back in the 1960s, there were lots of blacks in SF. Something like 15 percent of the city was black while the suburbs were for the most part white. Now it's probably 5 percent or lower, dropping lower every year. The blacks are leaving because they want to. Meanwhile yuppies and hipsters are moving into the city. Hispanics are bristling at the conversion of "formerly" latino areas into white hangouts (which were originally white prior to the 60s). The changes I've seen in the last 60 years are amazing. Black ghettos going upscale and turning Asian. Maybe there's hope to turn San Francisco back to conservatism (was a Republican city for most of the 20th century).
“Gentrification. Blacks aren’t being “pushed” out, they’re leaving due to economics.”
Yes.
San Francisco costs too much now.
I meant I noticed how the biggest liberal city has become bereft of blacks.
It is like a purge.
It’s ironic given the pandering and should be used against them.
SF may have pockets of conservative living people, but it is not going to go right.
