I live in a big metropolis system, where the boundary of the Mississippi River is the gate keeper of two major casino boats and rich in industriousness imports. However, I was raise in an urban community of Zion City, a subsystem within the Baton Rouge, LA area. It's a somewhat dense population not to crowd but limit in space. The racial culture was majority black with a few white spreading between the streets, and living standard was poor to middle class. The area housing was adequate affordable ranging from housing authority, renter, and home owner. The dwelling in some area was bunch to cramped, with the homes ranging from new to older structure.
