Those places are much more affordable so that makes sense. A lot of Blacks and Hispanics priced out of Gentrifying SF and Oakland are moving there. A Black family can sell a shack in Oakland and buy a McMansion in Brentwood.

No they can't. A mcmansion in Brentwood costs a million dollars. Shacks in the black parts of Oakland do not cost a million dollars. LoL

Concerned about not enough white people in the Bay Area? Maybe you should go encourage Chick-fil-A to build more restaurants, or better yet, put your money where your mouth is and franchise one. My wife and daughter visited one in Sunnyvale and they were pretty surprised to find that 80% of the patrons there were white. In Sunnyvale (which is better known for having a lot of South Asian and Korean shops)!

That is the price my brother paid for a 4,000+ sq ft house in Brentwood a few years ago. I am sure it is worth more now than $600,000.


I wouldn't live there still too crowded and is the fastest growing city. Too much traffic and way too much stop and go driving because of traffic signals and gridlock.

I am not really offended by Silverkiss's comments because it is rational for an Asian person to want to live in a majority Asian community. The main problem I have is with upper class Whites who claim to be anti racist yet will only live in an area that is majority White. Beverly Hills is majority Middle Eastern and San Marino majority Asian yet those areas have lost their desirability to White Elites. For example on my Jewish side I have family who left a wealthy part of the San Fernando Valley when it became to Middle Eastern yet they are still the biggest pro immigration liberals. Eventually most of the elite White areas will change demographically and it will become more difficult to put on an anti racist facade.

Again, who cares?

It ain't my problem. People want to live in a place or don't want to, let them!

Please stop. The OP is a casual white supremacist that lives in southern CA. Please stop. I don't want to see this convo any longer. OP, move to an all white area so you will be happy and will shut up. Thanks.

Yes, I live in a suburb of LA but I really don't care for the place. All the sprawl, traffic, trashy wannabe real TV stars and large underclass. I would prefer to live in the Bay Area but cannot afford a nice area because of wealthy Chinese buying up the real estate. I might end up moving to Colorado but it is turning into California. I don't want to be in some hick town in the middle of Idaho. Being accused of racism is false and has caused me unessary tension. My last Asian GF broke up with me for stating facts far more mild than what I have stated on this thread and some of my Jewish reletives won't talk to me and call me an Alt Right Nazi even though I voted for Bernie Sanders in the primary. I did vote for Trump in the general. I visited all parts of the Bay Area and have decided that Central Contra Costa would be the ideal place to live.
