Ghettos are fascinating to drive through.  I've driven through the ones in Texas (Houston, Dallas), but also most of the big ones in the East Coast (DC, Baltimore (where I lived for a while), Philly, Trenton, Newark).  Not NYC however.

However, ghettos are not anything new - they've been that way for the last 30-40 years.  Why the sudden fascination?

30-40 years? You can't be serious.

I was referring to the present-day inhabitants and condition of ghettos, not the fact that ghettos have existed for quite a while.  So your point is quite fair, even though that's not exactly what I was talking about.
