Ive been to Brooklyn College and Midwood HS a few times. The furthest I would go is the B6 stop at Nostrand, dont want to trek any further. D: I find it humorous how the demographics have a sort of a invisible wall, instantly tell where the Jewish community borders with "that" area. If you know what I mean. edit" African Americans accounts for a quarter of NY's population, dont need to mention it. Especially you know, Central and East Brooklyn and the Bronx. Oh, I honestly didnt know about the student government thing(I attend CUNY in the city), I just know there are a ton of Asians and Caucasians in those schools. | ||
