Some jabroni from Utah already tried to buy a bunch of property in PB and make a tech hub. It went about how you'd expect.

I drove through Pine Bluff once just because of the shot I’d heard on the OT. It didn’t disappoint.

Simultaneously the newest and worst Chik Fil A I’ve ever eaten in. It was strange.

I’ve been offered jobs in Pine Bluff that I could just name my price, but if you know Pine Bluff, it’s not worth it…

It’s honestly surprising the city still exists with a fairly large (but drastically declining) population. Who the hell grows up in Pine Bluff and stays? Little Rock is 45 minutes down the road. GTFO.

Lets say you could wave a magic wand preventing the, uh, locals… from robbing, raping and killing you. Those houses are still so bad you may as well bulldoze them and start over.

I was born in Pine Bluff but raised in Sheridan.

Both sides of family came from Helena and my grandfather on my mom's side moved to Camden back in the early 80s until 2000.

White Gen Zers will buy them, fix them up, live there, then be accused of “gentrification.”

You literally can’t win. The game is rigged for everything to be “racist.”

It reminds me when my family lived in West Helena, the black folks couldn't wait when the white folks would leave. It finally began to happen when Mohawk Tire closed for good in the early 80s. Soon white flight began.

This always made me laugh. I think of it every time I see the 530 exit.

I couldn't eat in places like Helena or Pine Bluff. They are not only rude but if you happen to be white and you argue with them about the order then they probably would spit in your food.

My cousin ordered food from Sonic and he found what looked like pubic hair in his fries.

They don't like white liberals at all. They see them as condescending and look down on them. Everyone else they either tolerate or are fine with just as long as you don't say or do something stupid.
