I'm not yet going to post my immediate thoughts (see below), but they weren't any of the OP's cities (for either category...)

For what it's worth, there are nice colorful maps with red, blue, green, etc. colored dots that show demographics of cities so we don't really have to speculate too, too much.

Best: San Fran and Bay Area

Worst: WA DC, Seattle. Seattle bus drivers are the worst. They are hostile to African American passengers.

Interesting that we had a thread on this exact same topic just about two months ago. Was that yours, too, ipod?

The worst could be Milwaukee with Cleveland and Chicago

I would bet my next paycheck that you wouldn't have the balls to say something like that in person. It's a good thing too because who knows what might happen to you.

What a pathetic and disgusting sentiment.

Best:
1. San Diego, CA
2. Columbus, OH
3. Berkeley, CA

Worst:
1. Seattle, WA
2. San Francisco, CA (to a lesser extent)
3. Houston, TX (the inner city, not the suburbs)
You kidding me? Houston is one of the most integrated city in the US.

And apart from one or two burbs the city itself is much more integrated than the burbs.

You know not what you are talking about.

People have said San Francisco is one of the best, but I've heard that blacks tend to be marginalized and tucked away in that city. How true is this?

I think you owe an apology to the mother in this story, her young black child shot in cold blood by some Mexican gangbanger.

LA is the OPPOSITE of integrated. In fact, in the real world, I get the impression its worse than Chicago or Detroit.

The West Coast HATES Black people, which is why Blacks have been fleeing California

It's the truth. And as a Black man, it makes me sick.

He owes an appologies just because he thinks the West Coast is integrated?

Ive lived in LA and Chicago and LA is much, much more integrated than Chicago.
