What bothers me is when people pass off a statistic as a fact. Again, numbers can be posted of diversity in any two cities and shown to a group. Every person will interpret them differently and look for different attributes, which is how each person has their own definition for diversity.
Statistics are much closer to being factual than opinions, especially extremely biased opinions like yours.

Yes, statistics are facts. However, how someone interprets the diversity percentages is an opinion. People see things from different angles. And yes, I am biased.... so are you.
BK overall is desirable. The only areas not desirable are the nabes with high crime, which every city/area has.
Let's hear about those so called less desirable areas of BK. Honestly, this is a call out. I am testing your knowledge of BK. The longer it takes you to reply is the longer I am assuming you are googling. And don't give me the areas everyone knows such as Brownsville, ENY, Crown Heights and Bed-Stuy. Give me some info the average person doesnt know, honestly I dont think much time was spent there.
That's not difficult...
Marcy Avenue/South Williamsburg
Bushwick
East Flatbush

People have to google facts about Brooklyn since it's so under the radar next to a world-class city like San Francisco. You could post pictures of the Bronx or Queens and tell people (even NYers) it's Brooklyn and they'd agree. Try doing that with SF. Amazing how a metro of 22 million people can be so dependent on a tiny 23 sq mile island.

And? You interpret percentages that show Alameda Co. is more diverse than Brooklyn and conclude that Brooklyn is more diverse. Even mental patients have powers of interpretation.

Williamsburg is the one of the most popular nabes along with BK heights and Bushwich/Flatbush are again popular among rappers and speaking of the ghettos.
However, I am not saying you do or do not know much about BK. I was trying to call someone out who knows nothing about BK. Exatly as suspected, never got a response.

Then why is that Cali poster running his mouth and trashing BK if he knows nothing of it?

SF is a metro area of 9 million and they depend on the 800,000 in SF. Same goes for SF.

BK is more diverse than Alameda county in Cali, sorry. That is my opinion and I stick to it.

I thought it was 9 million. Sorry, I was thinking of Chicago which is a much more urban and larger metro. SF Bay Area is exactly 7,427,757. Oh, dfw is still hick.
