It looks as if my husband and I will be moving next year to Virginia from Northern Illinois, to be near children and grandchildren. That's if we can unload our old half-paid house. We kind of need a little town. Obviously we can't live in their rich Arlington neighborhood (well, it looks rich to me). And if we wind up in one of these deep-red all-white towns, we may have bad things happening to us. Are there inexpensive places with lots of black people and sane white people?

AA & Latino ladies do, in fact, deserve a LOT of credit for Terry Mac's win. AverageJoe90 Nov 2013 #13
