I see what you are saying. It's the area then. It's probably not really as liberal and tolerant as they say it is. Hype.

Maybe this is part of your answer. Now I'm not an expert on New York's cultural geography, but if I'm not mistaken Jamaica has a high concentration of immigrants, many of whom come from countries where racial and ethnic mixing is not warmly embraced, to put it mildly.

Just because New York is extremely diverse doesn't mean there will be less problems than say a conservative area or less diverse area.

You probably have some hidden bias or prejudice that will somehow make me always look wrong?

No, but you saying you have it all figured out is just..wow. Unless, of course, you are psychic how can you possibly know what those other people are thinking?

Hidden bias or prejudice? I don't even know what you are talking about.
