sorry but ATL will be out paced by Houston, DFW, DC and Miami this decade

crazy ATL posters were predicting ATL to pass Houston in population about 4 years ago. What happened with that??? The people realized that ATL is not Disneyland and moved here instead.

Atlanta is number 1 relocations for Blacks period for the last 2 decades there is no argument there. When you can prove to me that Houston Dallas Charlotte and Raliegh have outpaced Atlanta in Growths for Blacks then we can have a debate until then Zip it. Anytime there is talks abotu where black majority is moving to they Always bring up Atlanta. The other cities follow behind.

Best is subjective, there is never a "Best" anything in life.
did you read the post that he wrote. You are cutting off everything after recognized and twisting it to mean stereotype

he did not say that Dallas is the city associated most with Texas. That is a negative stereotype anyway. People see it as a cowboy town. you changed the discussion into when people think about so and so. I am not Miss Cleo, I dont sit here and read people's minds to see what they are thinking of.

WHat he said was that it was recognized as the number one in Texas, and no matter what you say that is far from the truth

not at all. All smiles here. I live here after all. I probably would be mad if I had moved to DFW
I have a feeling that Houston will be number 1 in black raw change.
