Despite their often negative connotation, I find many black neighborhoods to be rich with history and culture, and some have gentrified.
My criteria for a good African-american neighborhood:
-Average or less crime
-Good public service facilities
-A good middle-class population
-Lots of fine culture/entertainment (music scene, literature, cultural attractions, etc.)
-Good transportation access
-Lively shopping/dining
-Good recreational facilities
-At least 50% of the neighborhood is black
-A population of at least 5,000

You know, you are right; I stand corrected. I have visited (AA) friends there, and in my wanderings took it for a majority black community.
A lovely community, nonetheless.
In Syracuse, the Salt Springs neighborhood would probably fit. Especially the eastern half of the neighborhood. It is close to all of the things you are looking for and it might be around 5,000 people in terms of size. I believe it is around 60-65% Black.
