You joke, buy people have been pointing that out for decades now. There is a reason the term Ghetto is still a common descriptor for these areas to this day…

“Ghettos” aren’t just apartments; they’re specifically segregated (and not by the minority’s choice) and often substandard/impoverished/oppressed.

Trying to equate ghettos with mere high density is nothing but racist NIMBY bullshit.

If there apartment seems like a concentration camp then it is likely subsidized housing, which is statistically likely to be part of a ghetto.

I have nothing against high density, living… the top commentor said their apartment feels like a concentration camp, and my point is that it essentially could be.
