Okay I'm just gonna say it:

Why is everyone black?

KC neighborhoods are either black or white. It's a legacy thing from back in the blockbusting days of their real estate boom.

That's fascinating to me.

Look up redlining.

Used to live in KC, very true. Parts of city are nice and safe right next to very bad spots. The nice spots are majority not black by an overwhelming percentage.

The general rule is avoid going as far East as Troost, and if you can't, do NOT go near Prospect.

Just go to Slaps or Joes and head back home and your safe. Maybe go to Messenger coffee if you're feeling adventurous.
