I know this kinda messed up because im from Atlanta and I don't know how to go into detail with this question or like answer the question.

But someone IM me this question. Does ATL have 2 different Hood Sections that are connected, are the same but different? You know how Harlem and Bronx are the same but different and BK and QB are connected.

Atlanta is not like a "Northern" city in this sense.

if they are different how are they the same. Do you mean next to each other(connected? On one side of the street you can be in Queens and the other Brooklyn?



Oh and QB stands for Queens Bridge a PJs in Queens not for Queens.

Atl is funny. You can have a subdivision of nice homes, the hood, some projects, a forest, a farm, a horse ranch, a mall, million-dollar homes, a trap house (that is, a drug house for those that arent familiar with urban dialect lol), a strip club, and a church.......ALL ON THE SAME STREET!!!!

All this well within the city and not less than 2 miles from I-20 lmao..........

I wish I could answer this. When you say "hood" are you simply meaning a typical black neighbohood, or are you talking about the projects? Because there are plenty of black neighborhoods in Metro Atlanta & the outlying counties that are located right across from each other & usually are only seperated by a main road.

Maybe you should flesh this question out little more, because you seem to be leaving the intended audience wanting for minutia. Just sayin', I guess...

Basically anything south of I-20 is considered the hood. There are other areas like the Fourth Ward where all the males wear white T-shirts and baggy pants.

Ok so cascade is the hood? The new development on camp creek is the hood? Anything near and around the airport is the hood? Hell out of here.

LMAO I know my friends and I were having this conversation recently. Up in the camp creek area you have these brand new beautiful house and then you will see old abandoned houses next door or down the street. Its very weird because Most of the time either an area is bad or maybe even a street but Ive never seen the hood and the NICE areas so close together. Then you wonder why their is crime.
