Did you guys grow up in the hood or the suburbs?

I feel like we have the assumption that all Somalis live in the hood/low income neighborhoods.
But I didn't , I grew in a mostly white safe & clean suburban neighborhood. What about y'all?
 
Lol that's not true.
In Europe there's no such thing as suburbs.

All the immigrants live together in their crowded small dirty boroughs and the middle and upper cadaans live out of the city in their nice pretty green neighborhoods.
Yes, all too ‘multicultural’ for my liking (ironic isn’t it?). Imagine spotting a Hindu, a Pole, a West African, and an Arab in a bus, from all corners of the globe and all going about their businesses and chatting in their native tongues on their phones; uneasy to say the least.

From the projects. However the place looks better now but the mentality over here is still ghetto.

I have lived in all sorts of neighborhoods.

From extremely MENA ghettos to ultra white areas (both working class white and snobby rich white).

I honestly liked the MENA ghettos the most. Only there did random people refer to me as their brother all the time. It felt weird the first couple of times. 😂

Neighborhood types where I lived ranked:

1. MENA ghetto in Europe.
2. elitist rich white area.
3. Somalia
4. working class white area.

elite cadaans are better than the working class ones.
