Commute Time ( in minutes ) by Race & Ethnicity , 2017
A few White people that I know asked me why I lived where I lived , saying that I needed to get out of there . But I liked where I lived . It was basically in the middle of everything . I don ’ t know if you ’ d call it overt racism or anything , but they were concerned that I ’ m this White guy living in a Black and Hispanic neighborhood .
