I live in Murray Hill in NYC, so it seems mostly white, but it's actually pretty diverse.

So wait a second no one thinks that burning a house down three times is scary.

Im surprised at how calmly people have taken it here.

And what if they still sold it to a minority? would those people be in danger of being burnt or hurt and ran out of town?

Geez so scary.

I would never live in a neighborhood that is primarily one race, be what ever race that may be. I just think its imporant to me and my FH that the neighborhood we live in accepts and lives among many races. Im not naive I know that there are alot of ignorant people out there who are racists. But I just couldn't live in a place thats so blatantly racist.

I need to teach that to my children I refuse to live in a community where racisim, segration and intimidation is accepted.

This world is so sad sometimes .

Anyway, let me stop before all hell breaks loose.

Bye ladies:)

PS. I live in a neighborhood where most homes are over $600,000 and where there are italians, irish, hispanics, armenians, russians, asians, middle eastern , indian well the list goes on. I love it!

Me too. We live in a planned community. The section we live in the homes start at least 600k and it is a mixed neighborhood. The other section the houses start 800k and then there is a million dollar section. They are all mixed neighborhoods.
