Or at least out of the city so that a lot of folks won't have to worry about living around more than 3 black households. Is three the magic number before people start talking about "Neighborhoods to avoid?"

You're forcing Asians to compete with blacks, and that just isn't fair. Blacks have been here in large numbers since the 1600s, Asians since the 1960s. As a result, different standards apply for an Asian mecca, standards that Atlanta not only meets, but exceeds.

HOney there is nothing you can do to change that title please give your argument up its always going to be known as a black mecca please deal with

Recognize and accept this.

I still say Charlotte or perhaps Raleigh Durham will be it. I see Atlanta morphing into a more generalized and diverse area.

Which is also what Charlotte and the Triangle are doing, especially the Triangle. Trust me, they aren't turning into "new Black meccas." I seriously doubt they want to anyway.

I think most people would agree that it has already MORPHED into this.
