What type of place do you live in? Center of city? Suburb? Rural? How diverse is your area? (sh.itjust.works)

Hey from Philly

Outside center city, in a I guess "suburb"...

Like my neighborhood is like 20% white, 20% black, 20% Asian, 30% hispanic, rest is mixed or "other". Seems kinda diverse

How about your area?

I live somewhere between where the great plains turns to marshes and lakes, where the summer has 15 hours of daylight and the winters only 6, and the desert side of the highest mountains where the day and night are in perfect equilibrium. I live in the empty meadow and the city, neither the suburb nor the desolate waste.

I do not reveal any identifiable information online unless it's a lie.

More hispanics than non-hispanic whites in the area, an interesting outlier. Big American Chinese community nearby. ICE hasn't found it yet but if they do I'll be ready for them.
