It doesn't matter either way. If an area is made up of mostly white people, so be it. It if it made up of people of all ethnicities, so be it.

Since you are in Pensacola and it is only black and white, it isn't really diverse.


Diversity is when you have a large spectrum of people...and a large spectrum of cultures and events and restaurants and everything else you can imagine...and a ton of people with a ton of different thinking and ideas on things.

I think people who live in non-diverse areas...or places with just black and white Americans...they adhere more to a singular interpretation of life and living...and develop a preference for it. Making diversity threatening or minimum, simply not interesting, or too much to deal with.

If a person has had a lot of diversity with thoughts, opinions, people, ideas, etc...it gets almost impossible to try to conform yourself to one singular non-diverse interpretation of life/living.

So, in other words, completely a personal preference.
