I bet there were several tenants in Cabrini Greens that made six-figure incomes,

selling crack and heroin to the other 10,000 residents.

Actually, street level drug dealing does not pay all that well. The money has to be divided up among too many people, and most of them make little. Yes, they don’t pay income tax, but they still don’t make much more than people with a ho-hum regular job.

Back in 1970, Mrs BN & I briefly taught Sunday School in Caprini Green. Thankfully, we had a "formidable" black momma meet us at the curb and escort us into the complex.

Interesting place...
