hey so to make it short i am a 25 blk male in Atlanta. Who is deciding to move to chicago in a year and a half or elsewhere. I will date any female who peaks my interests but I have a high attraction to white girls. to be honest I have bad luck with dating white girls in Atlanta but I always see interracial couples here but for me they dont give me a chance. i am not the stereotypical black guy I like indie music and some ppl call me a hipster (ugh) but I am looking into neighborhoods like logan square and or hyde park. Would i have tough time looking for interracial dating in chicago?

My! OK, if you want to find white girls to date, you should concentrate on Logan Square, Rogers Park and the north side instead of Hyde Park. If you want to live with a white girl, choose Hyde Park.

IMHO

Good luck with that. You'll have to find White women whom actually have a preference for Black males.

I'm a half White half Chinese male, but I look like a Hispanic and I can't get conversations with White girls.

I've mostly lived in dangerous Hispanic gang neighborhoods, and, Hispanic and Black girls are by far, more talkative and easier to approach.

But the kind of Hispanic girls I talk to are the ones who have boyfriends that are in gangs and felons, as they are the easiest to talk to. (But I'm also street smart and can talk like a Hispanic person when I'm with Hispanic people, talk like a White person when I'm around White people.).

As an example, consider the following:

On the public trains and buses, and out on the street, I often hand out pamphlets on anti-Zionism/atheism. With Hispanic girls, 90% of the time they take it. With White women, 90% of the time they reject it.

Why White women are like this I don't know, but most of them are cowards and the ones that are easier to talk to are ones who either went to the Chicago Public Schools, or live in or grew up in Hispanic and Black neighborhoods.

Interesting. I would take a pass on your pamphlets no matter what race. Creepy.

There are fewer unattached white females in Hyde Park. The university is mostly male, making the available female population smaller, if you believe in statistics. However, Hyde Park is very accepting of all dating arrangements.

The only area in which you may get static is in approaching white females in some north side yuppie bars. Some are notorious for not admitting two black males together. But that is the management -- I don't think that crosses over to the female clientele. Some male patrons can be standoffish but one can live with that.

Everyone has a chance in dating white women; just bring your "A" game.

There seemed to be a lot of interracial couples living in Hyde Park and South Loop. There aren't a high number of Blacks in the Gold Coast but there shouldn't be any issues from what I've heard and you will see Black-White couples walking around. There are some interracial couple who hang out in uptown but they didn't seem to be of the professional caliber. Edgewater is another area to consider that may give you access to nightlife. Budget is another piece of the pie.

I personally would check stats on your new potential zip code to make sure the area is livable like rental rates and demographics. I wouldn't live in any neighborhood that is below 10% Black or more than 80% one race.

As far as places to meet other like minded people to date, I would recommend online dating. That way you can manage potential dates and they will do the same. I think interracial dating is easier. Rumors have it that there is a lot of "no black men need to apply" profiles online. But that is ok because it will help you to eliminate.

I hope this helps.

Mod cut: Orphaned (quoted post has been deleted).

Anyway back to OP question. If you want to meet white women that are more open to interracial dating, I'd definitely stick to Logan Square over Hyde Park. But if you're a date-able guy (not totally ugly, decent job, interesting, etc.) you shouldn't have a problem meeting white women or women of any race really. But in my personal opinion, hipsterish women are more open to inter racial dating. The yuppie ones are the ones that want to only date whites.

You definitely see inter-racial couples (black-white) downtown too (Loop, River North). Mostly young professional types. I don't think you should pick a neighborhood based on where you think you'll have the best 'chance'. Pick a neighborhood you like, and if you have an interest in inter-racial dating many girls will be open to it. Chicago is a very social city, so if you have an outgoing personality, it shouldn't be a problem.

Chicago is not the best place for you if you are a black male looking to date white women. Sorry! Seattle maybe?
