Fo reels?

No, LOL. I combined anus with vaginoplasty not realizing the word already exists and means something unrelated to buttholes.

Fwiw, when I was told I may have needed to have an anginaplasty done, it did make the old starfish pucker.

There are nearly 400k people in Arlington and there have been 5 murders this year. Overreact much?

this.

Born and raised in Arlington, lived there 30 years, live there now, Mom still lives in the house she bought the year I was born. The majority of Arlington is a shit hole, but it's been going down hill slowly for way more than 10 years. It's overcrowded and housing is cheap. East Fort Worth and West Dallas are sketchy, so naturally, you get some trash coming over. Katrina didn't help.

All that said, I'm pretty sure the few murders lately are still less than what you have in Dallas or Fort Worth.

In this metroplex, you gotta pay a premium for a nice area. Higher prices keep the riff-raff away. $200k will get you a lot of house in Arlington. It doesn't get you much of anything in Grapevine. Your other option is to move to the outskirts. Decent neighborhoods, decent prices, but longer commutes. However, a lot of the outskirts will eventually start to degrade, too. City life FTL.

White flight.

There's plenty of black folk around here. They love fat crackers.

I thought it was mexicans, like with the joke of what do bricks and fat white women have in common......they only get laid by mexicans.

One could assume that multi-culturalism destroys nice areas.

*yawn*



btw those 'gangs' and 'violent people' that end up in the cities around dallas are the soft ones who couldn't make it in dallas that's why they moved to the burbs!

There have been 4 in the past week.


Arlington is a shithole. We just finally moved my in-laws out of there. They had been there for 20+ years and thought I was crazy when I used to tell them it was a shit hole till they moved and look at it from the outside.
This is what you get when white folk are the minority.....

I believe crime is tied to the mean rim size. McKinney is approaching the red zone of 21". Arlington is at 23". Predominately white areas are generally 17.5".

Although this doesn't explain the 14.75" in the Mexican community.

Crime is also drastically lower where the number of mountain bikes using a 29" rim is on the rise.

And there were six murders in Grapevine on Christmas Day in 2011. What's your point? It's getting hot outside, people are going to start getting killed. I'm already seeing ridiculous short tempers coming in my store. It happens every summer. Arlington is a completely average middle class town. If that's your definition of ghetto, your place must have floor to ceiling cow skin rugs.

Pleather is the only way to go...

I think some of the criminal element from Grand Prairie has made it's way West. You know it's great when the police put up signs warning that you are in a high crime area and to be cautious. As long as it all stops and Forest Hill and stays out of Fort Worth I'm good.

Also, I hate to break it to all the closet racists that think the world is coming to an end every time they see a black person, but Arlington is 65% white.

Dude, Arlington is a little more ghetto than average.
