Some of it may be the influx from all over. Of course there are still tensions, but it just doesn't seem like the kind of tensions my old neighborhoods in places like NY, Chicago, and Boston just breathed. Maybe I've just not found the properly neanderthal parts of the neighborhoods.
Fruitvale Station is a good move.
