    Today, we will take a look at communities that have higher-than-average populations of African Americans. These prestigious neighborhoods are where African Americans are succeeding in terms of income, homeownership, and academic achievement. Since this Top 10 list highlights *communities*, we have selected predominately black neighborhoods with less than 30,000 people and our researchers have factored basic indicators such as cost of living, economic equality, and livability.

      Chuck Brown Yes, many areas of MD have a lot of upper middle to upper class black families. I remember one predominantly black high school (can’t remember which city in PG county) was reprimanded because all of the black children did extremely well on SAT and ACT. They actually outscored whites AND Asians. The school was accused of cheating. The dumb ass media didn’t realize that the black children of black doctors, attorneys, accountants, engineers, university professors and high level government workers are socialized to value education, college and academics just like their parents did.

If you teach yourself discipline if needed, or seek a normal mentor, you are on your way! Also, young people who hold ofc on pregnancies, until they are financially sound accelerate their path to the GOOD life! Yes, N become SAVERS, rather con- sumers. Buy tv's, etc. from yard sales, thrift stores, don't be psyched out into changing phones , which only contributes to billionaire companies, take care of the clothes you have, etc.!!!! Study, ask for tutors, BELEIVE N WORK FOR TOWARDS YOUR DREAMS. LEARN TO DO WITHOUT; THUS, AVOIDING THE INSTANT GRATIFICATION TRAP!!! Look forward to getting more stuff, later , when you can afford it. Then consider the stuff, being land ownership!! You surely can do it!! Godspeed!! Of course, illegal substances inflicted on one's body is not going to be good for having the successful life you are working on!

      Hi Mimi.....the interest rates should be coming down for home mortgages in NY. Can I suggest getting a multi-family property in Bronx, NY.....build equity and tap the equity to pay for your house in cash in Maryland if you decide to move there? I usually takes at least 10 years to build a decent amount of equity (not sure you want to wait that long). 20 years ago, God blessed me with a multi-family home in Brooklyn and I tapped into the equity and bought a NICE brand new home in Orlando, FL paid for in cash. Everybody has a different strategy just thought I'd share some ideas with a native New Yorker......LOL. Stay blessed and have a nice summer.

      Mocha B the Bronx always feels far from Manhattan. And the parts that are closest to Manhattan are places you don’t really wanna be. Loud dirty. Riverdale I’ve been told is nice, but it is faaaar. And if you ever wanna go to Brooklyn that’s a 2 hour train ride.

    There are plenty of suburbs in Atlanta, GA which has tons of African American middle to upper class communities that are Golf, Lake, and gated depending on location mostly valued from 250k to 600k or higher. This is why it's great to travel and experience life, so you can see for yourself what's out here and not have to depend on the media. There are tons of other states that have these communities such as North Carolina, Virginia, Alabama, and Texas from a southern perspective. What I've noticed about the Public Schools in these great communities, it's not about the family's income but the family's values that these children are raised with, money alone has never raised a well respected child. Just because the income is good, doesn't mean your children are unless you teach them values and have more impact on their lives than the shows, social media, and music that is constantly fighting to win them over. *I'd like to give a challenge to everyone to search within your state for one of these communities, may not be the top 10 but it's still great nonetheless!! God bless everyone!

I especially loved the story of the one neighborhood where "traditional" real estate companies overlooked the sweet ass vacation ready spot because of the demographics, and then boom! A real family business style community rose up on it's own, where the people that live there do business with the people that live there, and since the 1960's. That's a point of pride for anyone anywhere. Was a cool video to see.

    As a teenager it was awesome (in retrospect) growing up around upper middle class and well to do black families. There was little to no crime, clean neighborhood, everyone looking out for one another, your neighbors speak to you or at the very least acknowledged your presence, the grown ups would inspire us to succeed, once in a while a celebrity may move in the neighborhood for a minute....I would imagine for the privacy. Everyone knew the stranger in the neighborhood... those lurking around. And police officers respond quickly in those neighborhoods. Although I never ever saw one cop car growing up in Fort Washington. (Wow, that just hit me while typing this)
    I went to Friendly High School waaaaayyy back in the day. I loved that school so hard! Go Patriots!!!
    It’s a great place to raise a family. Hard working, church going, educated, proud black folk. Everyone didn’t have a degree, they just worked their way up in their organization/Company like my father...and brother. I don’t live there anymore...
    My mother and some old class mates still live in F.W.
    I remember the unity in my neighborhood. I miss that!! We never saw the adults fight or argue in the streets...
    It’s a great place to raise a family.
    I wasn’t surprised to see Fort Washington or Friendly Maryland in the Top Ten!

She has a video of these places they do exist. I've seen it in real life so I know. Cummings is not doing a very good job at all, the cleanliness of PG (Prince George's) has more to do with the people living there and their home owner associations then it does with Cummings. That's all I'm going to say because the rest is our business here in MD.

      Surprise Potomac and other Montgomery Conty cities is not on there.. The homes are huge beautiful and affordable if you have the job to afford but overall those area you can def sleep and forget to close your door .. The air is fresh ... Actually have fresh fruits in the market fews buses on the out skirt have to drive or just uber like i did

      It’s not the media’s responsibility to inspire you. Read and research what you want. You found this you can find other things as well.
