#1 While this area is not Ghetto slum. But it does have a serious interloper/Thug problem from surrounding areas.

The Edgewood neighborhood in Atlanta is middle income and mainly white. So those shot were more than likely White.

Edgewood-Kirkwood:
* crime rates are 85% higher than the national average
* Violent crimes are 31% higher than the national average
* safer than 81% of the cities in Georgia

BTW: Atlanta in general ranks higher in crime than most cities.

#4 re #1: no where you live in Atlanta whether it's a gated community or what, you are never more than a couple miles away from a slum in ATL

#10 Trying to find a place in the vicinity of Canton or Woodstock. Cherokee County appears to be the last bastion of hope.
