I am an early/mid twenties white woman. Which makes for a better story?
1. I spent the other saturday hanging out in the projects of Watts.
2. I already hung out on a street corning in Inglewood at 1 am.
I have done both of these and would not mind getting a reaction from people when I tell them about it.
Thanks

Definitely this.

Towers? I was around one story cheap apartment biuldings where one mother was drunk by noon and laundry detergent had to be guarded.
What are the towers?

That was a couple blocks and then literally the other side of the tracks from up. I was at Compton Ave and E 112 st., about three miles NNE of the city of Compton. I never realized the two were so close. *makes note for future visit*

For the benefit of everyone who isn't from SoCal, can someone translate stories 1 & 2?
Should that be 'corner' rather than 'corning'?
Everywhere like such as, and MOES.

I still vote for Inglewood... 1 am is a totally different situation than anywhere in Watts in the day.
