Concord isn't ghetto, the crime rate isn't there to support that accusation, and Pittsburg hasn't been all that bad since the 90's. Just because cities have large communities of non-whites doesn't mean it's bad.

But Concord has the second lowest crime rate for a city of its size in the Bay Area.

LoL most cities are much larger or smaller than Concord . Therr are lies, damned lies, and Statistics, as Mark Twain noted.


Sorry, but Concord is ghetto. No one is saying it is 1989 compton. But it is ghetto by 2016 standards. Its a place people move to because it is the best they can afford, not because they want to. And pittsburg is 100x worse.

You're kidding! Trump is one of the biggest exploiters of the H1b program! He has a recruiting office in Bucharest, and has been importing thousands of Romanians to work in his hotels and other businesses. If anyone mad at the H1b program voted for him, they screwed up majorly. They should write their representatives in Congress to amend the law, instead.

Probably around 15-20% of the city could be considered "ghetto", maybe 25% if you count areas that are lower-middle class but low crime. The rest is typical middle to upper middle class. Anyone who thinks the entire city is ghetto is a complete moron.

Oh yea because areas that are 75% middle to upper middle class have such low performing schools like Concord. Yup, that makes sense. Mostly middle class town, with high schools that rank in the bottom 40% state wide.

That's totally what comes to mind when I think of upper middle class suburbia. Watch out Danville, Concord is upscale now!

I'm far more interested in the cities Trump did terribly in to see what percentage of the population still voted for him. Like how many people in Oakland voted for Trump?

I did. *trollface*.

You can search by (California) address for precinct level voting maps here - California neighborhood election results: Did your precinct vote to elect Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump? - Los Angeles Times

Edited to add- you can search by city by listing that instead of the address. And if you click on the map it will give you results for that area.
