Also the crowd of people chilling next to the hooptie on the neighbor's lawn thats blasting reggaeton 22 hours a day should be ignored

Another tip- don't leave your laundry unattended unless you wanna pull your fav hoodie off a crackhead in the street 3 days later.

thankfully not anymore. It sucks when your being harassed by the po po thinking your a coke dealer when you could pass hair follicle test and it also isn't fun when the bar is next door and they end up knocking at your door thinking its the bar.

It seems like it'd be kind of sick to have a ghetto apartment wouldn't it? I mean, what are the real downsides when matched up against a dorm?

Were they grilling the chicken on a grocery cart? If not, it couldn't have been that hood.

my apartment is shit. The floor of my tiny living room is sagging down in the middle, cracks in the walls, six inch high mushrooms were growing out the side of my toilet at one point before I sprayed them with febreeze and they died. My full mattress takes up 2/3 of the space in my room. I do however have a half finished attic with christmas lights that can be a cool spot to chill. Spent a ton of time up there when I used to smoke. Also my neighbor sells drugs

To be honest i was out of my element being a naive teenage at the time. As i look back on it now i wouldve joined them, you dont get the chance to hang with some hoodrats cooking chicken too often.

Dude it's not as fun as it sounds when your boy comes sprinting back upstairs gushing blood and sporting a rusty screwdriver through the bicep because he got to his car and some puerto rican was in the middle of stealing his stereo. Literally kid flips and smashes said thief in car door who then stabs him with his screwdriver and runs away. Like wtf.

I'd rather not. I'll pay extra, just keep the fucking crackheads away. Ugh.

I used to live in Pomona next to a trailer park.

Haven't heard of it? Just watch an episode of COPS.

Now I live in a lovely apartment in Mammoth where my biggest worry is leaving a window unlocked and having my bear neighbor break in and consume the contents of my pantry.


Just umm... get good grades and you'll get into one of them colleges where you can graduate and join the 240,000 underemployed.
