  One thing that is good about South Central is that there is lots of different culture here. South Central can improve in many areas. I think it should improve on the violence that occurs here. I like living here sometimes. But sometimes i dont like living here.

  The first event that occurred to make south central what it is today was probably the watts riots. It is important because this is when south central started changing. Alot of white people left watts and the surrounding areas during this time. I chose it because it seemed like the most important event. I also chose because if this didnt happen watts wouldnt be the same as it is right now.

  The second event that occurred is the la riots. It started when Rodney King was pulled over then beaten by police. The riots then started when the police were fined as not guilty. This is important because this showed how blacks and latinos were still being treated unfairly. I chose it because it seemed really important.

  The third event is the crack epidemic. It started when the CIA sold illegal drugs to south central to fund an illegal war that was going on in Nicaragua. This is important because this lead to higher crime rates in South central. I chose it because it was the goverments fault that south central is the way it is now.

  The first event was the watts riots when all the whit people left watts. The second event is the La riots. The third event was the crack epidemic. They all were the reasons of why south central is the way it is. I dont know how it will change in the futurre.

there are manyt things that make south central s[ecial. one is that there are many different cultures. there are different races of people. we also have the watts towers.

there arent many places where there are different cultures. most places have one race but here there is a mix of different races. we als have the watts towers.

i do like living in losangeles. i like living here because i grew up here.

 There was trash on the street that kept piling up because they probably saw one piece of trash. There is an abandoned house thats broken and has tagging on it. The abandoned house is broken down and neglected. I do because people go inside and do drugs. They also tag on it. Yes I do because they would see it neat and wouldnt want to mess it up.

1.The Broken Window Theory is a theory that you do more crimes because the community is not taken care of.

2.I did find places that were not taken care of. A corner was dirty and not taken care of. There was a house with a broken fence and a lot of trash. There was a water tank that had some graffiti on it.

3.I saw that there was a lot of small businesses in the community. On the end of the street there was always some type of business. There were lots of houses for sale. There was graffiti everywhere.
