Fine. They were evacuees.
Calling them refugees is not fair because they were American citizens.

The toughest parts of 5th ward and the toughest parts of 3rd ward are about the same. Neither really make me break a sweat. Seen rougher in DC and NOLA.
The congressWOMAN does NOT approve this thread!

Playing junior high basketball in the greater Houston Catholic School league introduced young suburban prep schoolers to life on the other side of the tracks. I recall watching two players at Our Mother of Mercy trade out their one pair of tennis shoes when they substituted in and out, and taking dirt roads past blocks of houses with chickens running around in the front yards. That was in the fifth ward. St. Peter's off of O.S.T. had a gym with a narrow court and seats right on the sideline which made breaking their full court press all that harder. Plus they had fans in the neighborhood that would taunt you as they left the KFC accross the street while you were warming up in the parking lot. Queen of Peace, Ressurection, and Our Lady of Fatima were pretty rough too. I still smile everytime I pass Our Lady of Guadalupe (a block down from the original Ninfa's on Navigation), they were our first win. Chumps!

Quitman at Jensen used to be the center of the ghetto universe in Houston. Don't know if there's a new, even worse area now.

I do ghetto runs for fun because I have to drive all over this city for work. I have been to most of the areas mentioned in this thread. Jenson north of I-10 is easily the worst. Acres Homes might come in 2nd.
You can drive through these areas during the day and be just fine. Most of the people living there are still sleeping.

Y'all would have loved Critical Mass tonight. We rode down Quitman, then north on Elysian. We turned east on Cavalcade and rode right into the heart of the Bloody 5th. Cruised down Broyles until it turned into Waco Street. Then we rode down Navigation to Wayside. Took Wayside to Lawndale, then to Telephone Road and Leeland. We cruised Leeland back into town.
We hit nearly every ghetto outside of Southside and Southwest. People were happy to see us. No one got shot.

5th ward is 3rd world.

Can I get a thoed ranking on Sunnyside? I went to a junkyard there to pick up some wheels for my S10 and the first thing they guy asked if my wheels were stolen, "Na, they're 14's nobody wants that ****."
So pretty much anywhere blacks live en masse. Got it.
Sunnyside is very thoed!
3rd ward.."Sunny side"...where its always sunny in suunyside
Don't you critical mass turds think people hate bicyclists enough? Is there REALLY a need to antagonize the public further?
Pretty sure the Critical Mass guy is a tsip troll from old rivalries.

Actually, I am a class of '82 Ag who lives in the Heights, and am a former CT.
Nice try, though.

SW gets my vote, & its the most diversified area of town. Where Asians pop trunk. Apartment complexes are essentially projects. & Hillcroft is the Mecca of knock off purses.

Wait, what's this about? Help a brother out, don't feel like back-tracking this one.
Approx 80% of the area 2 miles either side of BW8 for its entire length.
