_BW can't find partners on their level; BM wants to _*_Marry up_*_ as most BM are marginal. Less than 12% of married BM in most Urban cities are breadwinners in 2022 stats vs 50% of other races including the immigrants! *Most BM drop out of society at 37 to 55 and they look for women to live off!_

*According to Pew Research Center, 24% of recently married Black men have a spouse of a different race or ethnicity, which is double the rate of Black women*

Give black guys hope

Oh wow I moved to Charlotte too in June 2020, no job, no family, no friends- so I definitely understand and resonate with your experience. I now seesaw in contemplating moving from here for some of the reasons you mentioned... but had a blast when I first came. I also started a girls GroupMe for meetups, but so hard to get people to participate in anything! Was exhausting and some girls were catty acting so I haven't done anything with it lately

I’ve been watching your videos because charlottes been heavy on my mind !

Just move to Houston family matters it’s rare sisters are not beefing it’s big enough to not feel crowded or Atlanta if you wanna be rivals lol

I would join the meet up if you do it

Def would love if I had you as a resource. Also, do you have sister locks?

Nice video ,,, I always enjoy your videos .. I hope one day I’ll run into you 😊

Yes Nnena get that apartment video up soon I need to move by Oct … I’m already in charlotte ,,,thx

If your roots are in America, meaning, you're an American Freedman (This sister is not), you should DEFINITELY move to Charlotte. The immigrants are taking over this city that we've inhabited in great numbers since the Reconstruction era. We me more of OUR PEOPLE from right here in America to get to Charlotte and all of the cities populated by our Freedmen family.

Cslling Houston segregated is a bit strong.Houston is the most diverse city in the country .There are people here from all over the world.I think a lot of people come here from cities with a long history of segregation.What that means are the black people are all going to stick to a side of the city.Community will be steong and prevalent but opportunities will be scarce. Houston historically has a history of being one of the few cities that did not have forced integration. The people and businesses owners integrated on their own. Yhe blaxk people here built strong communities. Places like 5th Ward, 3rd Ward, Sunnyside may not look like much but those communities are rock solid. That means some may move to other parts of Houston but they do not abandon those neighborhoods.If youre a transplant, its hard to break into those communities because everyone knows everyone. So people hete are not divided along racial lines necessarily, they are divided culturally. I don't understand what people mean by they cant find a decent oaying job in Houston. If you sont have a field of expertise and think youre going to find a job working in a warehouse, factory, etc; those jobs are largely given to people crossing the southern border. If youre in the medical field, technology, energy, you'll do well.If you are an unskilled worker the first thing you need to do is take any job to pay the bills, then enroll in Houston Community College. They have a ton of Continuing Education classes, that are very affordable and they offer online classes. Houston employers prefer experience over degrees so with a little grind, you can double your income in less than a year, taking classes online. I know seceral people that have done that successfully. Lone Star college is also good.Last thing on jobs but the most important thing, Hostin is too damn big for you to be going around using the "y'all hiring" technique. Get a resume and get online!! Best places online are Indeed and LinkedIn. Link. The others are ok but those two are the best. Indeed will let you search for jobs in your area and you can apply for 20 or more jobs all at once!! Do this everyday for two weeks or more and you will get calls and emails for interviews. I tell my kids, "when you dont have a job, looking for a job is your job" you should soend 8 hours a day doing that until you find something. If you see jobs that you can do but don't meet the qualifications APPLY ANYWAY, some jobs will hire you on experience and just pay you the minimum salary. That's why some jobs say {$20-$35/hr). Last thing, don't be afraid to take temp jobs, that is one of the easiest ways to find perm work.Houston is too big. Big companies use recruiters, contact temp agencies and the recruiters will tell you where the jobs are.

Born and raised here .. and it's so terrible now ... Everything is expensive...its too hot .. too much traffic, to much crime , Everyone including crackheads have guns ... Your kids are targets ... Police target middle class ....not the ghettos .. Oh and if a natural disaster comes .. lol game over ... You won't find food , gas , assistance for months .

Atlanta (the city) is ghetto. The service is ghetto. The city is so rundown, abandoned houses and graffiti everywhere and I'm not talking about the nice street art and murals. They've built all these luxury apartments in the middle of the hood. I went to every so-called "nice" neighborhood and I'm sorry but in Chicago these neighborhoods would be considered the ghetto. I can't leave fast enough. The suburbs are nice but boring. I cannot recommend living in the actual city, which really defeats the purpose of living here if you ask me.

Omg I missed this live! Why am I not getting notifications, my bell is on!! Since I've lived in Charlotte and now Atlanta, and moving to Houston in 3 weeks I could have certainly added some input to the conversation lol.

HTOWN No comparison. The people are realer more down to earth not Hollywood fake. The women are real thick not BBL drizzy fake lol. 🤘🏽

Charlotte is for families not single women. No fashion, only American fried food or sushi, and no men. If you happen to find an eye candy, 98-100% of the time, he’s someone else’s man. Oh and the traffic and driving my goodness. 🤦🏾‍♀️

My light bill in a double wide trailer in the country is ant where from $400 to $600

You said the keyword 2020 I was born and raised in Charlotte and after Covid hit here y’all came messed up the city. The people that have moved here. Charlotte didn’t used to be this way. Its you people that have moved here in a lot of you if you leave believe me, you will not be missed, Charlotte used to be a clean city and affordable place to living and now prices are so high you got trash everywhere. It didn’t used to be that way. Charlotte was a very clean city. I enjoyed coming home after flying out to other cities as flight attendant. This is my home I was born and raised here, but I have seen changes for the worst when Covid hit you scattered here and I wish you would scatter back where you came from for those of you that have been here for years. You understand where I’m coming from since then I’ve had my cars broken one stolen twice never in my 60 years have I experience anything like this. People are so disrespectful rude not respecting your neighbors loud partying late at night even though you know you’re not supposed to be around the pool area there you are hanging out 12 1 AM way after hours of the closing of the pool. So if you don’t like it leave And I wish a lot of you that have moved here that don’t like it. Bye see you later. Bye. But I promise whatever you go drama will be there to it’s all over the United States. You’re not gonna be able to get away from it unless you move to another planet, that is life as it is today it’s not like it was when I was coming along and it’s not gonna change so wherever you move, it’s gonna be there too.

Ive been here a few months im a homebody but i agree with alot of what you say plus its hard when your a remote worker, they dont seem to have a carribbean scene either! I dont hate it here but im trying to find my way i guess no state has it all... Also you have me thinking if im living in the hood lol, it seems nice but now im wondering..

It used to be fine in Texas, but it’s getting terrible. The cost-of-living the lack of police the crime is increasing. Don’t let the governor fool you he does not know what he’s doing. They make some of the most unintelligent decisions in Texas that you just stand there and look at it.

I died when I saw the roach on the thumbnail 😂😂💀 what's understood don't have to be explained!!

I agree. I also moved here the same time you moved here. I moved from Houston to be close to family after 16 years. I totally get what you’re saying. I’m still here for now and trying to meet new ppl. I like nature so we do hike and looking for other outings. I wish you luck. Maybe we’ll run into each other one day and laugh about our commonalities . 😊

I’m a black man, and Literally every black girl I’ve asked out has rejected me, not only that, they played games and used me for attention

Refrain from conflating Black with African, although there is considerable overlap the two are not the same, especially culturally.

Cool channel but please don’t confuse city population vs metros! Atlanta proper has about 500,000 people with metro being about 6 million. Charlotte has a population of about 900,000 and metro about 3 million. Folks in Atlanta and Charlotte live all over the metro. That’s like saying Manhattan 1.6 million is NYC . No there are 19 million people in NYC metro! I like Houston but come on Houston ain’t Atlanta! For Black folk!😎

Big Mama!

🔥 I just like hearing yall talk peace and the person yall brought on was good as well

Noooo way I missed you guys at the event. Was just there!!

Black people who want a small town atmosphere should consider Beaumont,TX. Its more affordable and you can drive to Houston for special occasions.

17:05 😂 mmmmmmmhm

What is with TX and these roaches? Austin in the Summer? They move in wid out asking. Heard Houston is shaped like a bowl,so it will flood easily.

lol.. The cisty-slickers have RUINED Charlotte with all of these ugly apartments and houses. The winters ARE warmer compared to what they were in the past. You will have cold days and maybe a whole week of cold weather, but it's not a "good" sustained cold temperature. We used to get more snow more often also. But, Charlotte is NOT LIKE IT USED TO BE. It was a city (and, somewhat still is) a place to move if you were settling down and wanted a slower pace of life. It's still slow, but so many people have moved here from major cities and countries. The crime is off the chain. Our state is fourth now in most murders. The traffic is insane. People from Charlotte already can't half drive, and now, there are more aggressive drivers and reckless drivers on the road. Also, you can see "good ole' Southern Hospitality" going right out the window. The customer service and employees at so many places is subpar or just plain trash - restaurants included. I ALWAYS hear people complaining about racism here (like it's all over the place) when really, a LOT of people who come here are racially charged also. They are racists who come looking for racism. I have experienced being denied access to certain things and places, but I've gotten access by similar people also. Even at work, people claim it, but I've also seen what those workers do and how they work - and, they are lucky to have lasted so long. Anyway... just putting in my two cents. I'm not trying to convince anyone to come to Charlotte. Heck, I wish you'd all stay away, and the ones that are here, I really want to go back.

I live in apartment in Houston and have a two car garage.

I moved to south carolina and everything u said i feel the same

I felt so similar to you when I moved to Raleigh. I ended up moving back to my home state and now I want to move back to Raleigh lol. Having a community matters but it can take awhile to build. It’s funny because when I moved back to my state people were contacting me from Raleigh to hang out and connect not knowing I was already gone lol.

Have you thought about relocting internationally? Try Toronto, Canada. There are a lot of Nigerians here. The only negative thing for you would probably be the winter weather, similar to New Jersey! Since you work remote. 😊

Charlotte ended up being a "pass through" city for us. We loved living there and thought we would never leave, but a job opportunity led to us move away. We talked about possibly moving back, but our last visit left us feeling indifferent. The city is still beautiful. I think we need to make another visit and stay longer to get a feel for things.

You live in an apartment, smoke drugs, like the night life, interested in grummy activities… you can do that in any city

Facts Charlotte is slow

Houston sucks..im from here# overrated mexicans here are racist the list goes on,food is overrated

Houston is the #1 recipient of refugees in the nation. You can also meet someone from every corner of the globe, especially because Houston is the oil capital of the nation. I'm moving & there are many things I will miss about it.

So...u dont pump ur own gas ??? ⛽ Like how? And you didnt elaborate on that?! 😂 And I'm thinking maybe all the political ads cuz it's a swing state. 🧐

Well said. Your spot on!

I went to Charlotte in 2015 to check it out for a possible relocation and I wasn’t feeling it so hearing this doesn’t really surprise me. Since then I moved to Nashville, Tennessee and it wasn’t for me either. Now I’m in Florida. I don’t love it but I do like it. I joined the meet up app about 10 years ago to find people with similar interest and since being in Florida I’ve attended about 7 group events. I just want some traveling friends/associates. I’m older and pretty settled. I think you’ll eventually meet some good people just continue to be intentional!

I love Houston I’m in a 4/3 1500 house note in Katy I wish I would leave.
