There is no doubt that Mott Haven is not for everyone, and neither is Pelham Bay...if I wanted to live in a mediocre suburban town with racial undertones and a long commute to Manhattan, Pelham Bay might be on my list! If I wanted to live in a downright cheap place close to Manhattan...Mott Haven is the ONLY place on the list.
They both serve their purpose and neither are for everyone.
I love you Krazyyy....you wont let me go on E Harlem.....but you are cool
Anyways all that applies to E Harlem as well. For Mott Haven I said "among" the highest crime nabes....not that its tops. E Harlem was higher.
Same ****
May be if you hang out in Harlem a little bit more you'll change your point of view about it. The same with Mott Haven (cuz since I don't live there anymore but once in a while I'm there I don't think it's that bad). Give it a try.

Ok I will. Im always in West Harlem but E. Harlem not as much.
I was born in the Bronx in 1961 and seen the last wave of the Italian and Irish children that lived in my neighborhood slowly disappear. For many years after, I felt depressed when I noticed the changes around the early seventies when those fools walked around with colors from their gangs on their backs. An Italian girl whom I had an infatuation for in my school told me and a girlfriend that her brother was murdered by a gang only feet from her home in the Morris Park section. After that day, I never returned to her home because I felt that her father would probably blame me because I was Afro-American. The glory days of the Bronx are gone forever. Since the sixties, the children of the blacks and latinos destroyed the peace and created a violent atmosphere through their ignorance and passed it down to this present generation. I grew up only knowing about people by names and not by their skin color. I was so ignorant of race and enjoyed that bliss until I was about 18 years old. I have been living in South Carolina since 2004 and I never liked it here because the seeds of the state's evil history still remain. The reason Donald Trump is liked here is because they all have terrorist leanings that are deep rooted as they masquerade as American citizens while waving the flag of White supremacy. I probably will move back to New York (Queens) if I don't go out to California, but the glory days of the Bronx will always remain in my memory. I would advise you to go where you will find more Caucasian people so you will feel comfortable and safe from the animals who assail you.
Dont assert yourself. Ignore what they say. Dont let them touch you though. But if they say somehting to you, theres no point in responding. They're gonna think you're disrespecting them and thats not going down with them.
Haha, "disrespecting" someone is the ULTIMATE offense!
