Las Vegas isn't much better. It used to be, but with the housing boom of 2004, many moved here because you can make A LOT of money, with very little intelligence, education, character, or morals. Many move to serve deal cards, park cars, serve drinks. A person can make over $100k/year. Unfortunately, as fast as $$ comes, if one isn't careful, it gets away just as fast. Hence, we have foreclosures with lots of liens all over the place. I'm currently a realtor here, but am applying for law school for Fall 2008. Although Vegas is home and all that I've ever known, our law school is probably my fourth or fifth choice. A friend of mine just bought a 3600 sq ft. home in ATL and paid less than $350k. At the time of his closing, I was holding open houses here at a property similar in sq ftg and style, but on a parcel of land the size of a postage stamp. The listing price was $800k--go figure. Yeah, we have some brothas here with the OJ complex, but they're ignorable. Good black men are so hard to find, that not much surprises me anymore. I get more problems from their non-black women who find an intelligent and articulate sista threatening. I guess they're afraid I'll do a "take back". Anyway, I went to ATL recently to visit my old friend and fell in love-- with the city and back in love with him. And you're right, ATL does have some of the best law firms. My friend works for one. Look out Emory, here I come.
