Since income is not the factor that makes a neighborhood a tough neighborhood, it must be a neighborhood that's been around a while. A newer neighborhood hasn't been broken in yet must be the logic that separates one from the other. Like most neighborhoods though, there will be some who think its a great place to live, some who think it's boring, and some who make it sound like the most interesting place on earth, beyond just a great place to live or grow up.
The guy made his neighborhood sound like a war zone when he wanted more respect, and the most interesting place on earth when people didn't think he was interesting, always talking about shootings and robberies. Talking about a tough neighborhood can get as overrated as some of the parties described as the most popular can be. A bunch of people in the same place at the same time isn't always interesting.
