Lower Cascade in SW Atlanta is by far the nicest black area I have ever seen.

Kettering has a lot of suburb thugs.... people with section 8 vouchers have been moving from DC and inner ring PG to further our places.... Prince George's county is the wealthiest ghetto in all of America.

Growing up near Ladera, it was definitely NOT 70% black (or whatever the politically correct term is today). It was about 10 or 20%. But I wouldn't consider it a "real" African-American neighborhood - it's more of an upper-middle class enclave for LA's black professionals, along with Baldwin Hills and View Park. And there are a lot of WHITE professionals in LA who can't afford to live there.

I was going to say some of the African-American communities in the suburbs of Seattle and Portland. In Seattle, it would be the S.E. side of the city. The housing stock looks similar to what you find in other in-town neighborhoods (that are unjustifiably expensive), but the racial make-up is different...I was thinking Madrona, Rainier Beach, etc.

There are no upper class black neighborhood in Seattle. Rainer Valley is a ghetto. Well to do blacks in Seattle generally move to where well to do white are. Mainly Bellevue, Woodinville, Kirkland, etc

Are there at least any solidly middle class highly or mostly Black neighborhoods in the area? What about parts of say Renton or Lakewood?

Audubon Parkway Syracuse NY - Google Maps

It is in a census tract that is 60% Black and has a poverty percentage at 9%(if I'm not mistaken). This particular census block has the highest median household income in the Salt Springs neighborhood.
