Diversity != Harmony
Monday, 14 July 2008 by Jacob TomawI wonder if a white, upper-middle-class family of 3 moving out of uptown made it more or less diverse.
DePaul recently found that Uptown is the most diverse neighborhood in the city, both economically and racially. When you walk around Uptown, that is clear. What is also clear when you walk around is how you are not sure you are safe walking around. Everyone, all races, income groups, and ages, is on edge.
That being said, if you would like to make an offer on a lovely 1BR in the Margate Park sub-neighborhood, email me. Maybe not a nice place to raise a family yet, but the retailers faces just light up with the see a non-crazy person not on the public dole come in the door and buy something.

Most non-diverse “suburb” in the Mpls/St. Paul metro - Hampton, Minnesota. The only real diversity we have is the German dog that we own loves to play with the French poodle down the street.
