No,I do not agree, a person could live in a fancy home but not be very clean, although they have money. Then again some could not have money and live in not a very good neighborhood, but be clean and respectful. Like I know some people they dont live in a very good neighborhood in Chicago, but they are very nice people.
Maybe, but their personality may be completely different from their home. I live out in the country in a normal house so I'm sure someone would say "It's just another everyday American".

I dont think you can tell a lot about people because where they live. Because some people move into the wrong neighborhood. Or they live there and the wrong people start to move in to the neighborhood. So no you cant tell a lot about a person because where they live.
Tyler,
I think you can learn alot from what neighborhood they live in. Not all people from that neightborhood are the same or take the same actions.
The area where I live teres alot of different kind of people that do different things.
Tom
I dont agree with that statement,Ive lived in three different types of neighborhoods, and no change was brought upon because of this, Ive remained the same type of person for the most part.
Nikki,
Sometimes you can tell alot about a person by the neighborhood you live in. Like for instance when most people hear the word park view, they instantly think "trashy", but my sister use to live in park view and i do not concider them "trashy".
Melani
I myself think you can not tell a lot about a person by the neighborhood they live in because everyone is different. When I lived in my old house it was in a bad part of town but that doesn't mean that I was a bad person. When trouble started I would just stay away from it or go inside until it stopped. I wouldn't get invovled with it all.

I do but i don't agree with this statement because i used to live in a trallor park but i was never as bad as all of the other kids. I don't agree because as the saying goes don't judge a book by it's cover.
Meagan Ray
No, apperence can tell a lot about a person but sometimes looks are decieveing. You have to talk to the person for about a day or so to get to know them. You can't just look at a kid and then automatically not like them.
Christian
No i dont agree to this statement, becaues some people might live in a bad nighbore hood but they could be good/nice people.
I think the neighborhood i live in where all pritty normal in my life.
ISAIAH
No because you might not know the person that well. Like if there is a new person that moves in your neighborhood you dont know how they live.
Mason
I think that sometimes this statement could be true because if a child grows up around people who does bad things he or she will not know whats right from wrong when they grow up. For example, i was always taught not to swear but if my parents ccursed all the time i would end up doing the same.
Chance's comment is the one with no name. :D
Ben best
I don't agree with that because I
have a friend who was realy nice
then on that same street there was
some people who were not so
nice.
Nikki
Taylor,
I agree with you
Sean-John
Hey megan the post has nothing to do with apperence. Just saying:)
Jake I think you can tell a lot about a person by the neighborhood in which they live. Were you live can have a big impact on the way you act.
Taylor.
Nikki, i agree with the whole park view thing also. Not everyone down there is a bad person.
Emily
No you can't judge a person by where he or she lives. They could live in a bad neighborhood but they dont have to be bad. When i was younger I used to think that if some people in a neighborhood were bad then the whole neighborhood was bad it just depends on the people.
Melani
Hey Meagan I agree with what you said but i am pretty sure it took alot longer then a day to get to know you.
Beau
I disagree with this statement cause you should never judge some one bye the the out side of them. I met a person that was a really nice person and was nothing but kind and worm hearted but when i went to his house it looked like a bum him self lived there.
Shayla
No i dont agree with this statement because, some people could live in a bad neighorhood, but that dont mean there bad people.
austin
Yes because people act like the way they grow up
Emily
Hey Mason i agree with what you said it doesnt matter about the neighborhood it depends on the people
Tom
I believe Meagan and Christian both have good points.
Nikki
Taylor, see most people don't go with the reputation of park view that live there.:)
Mrs. Matysak
I disagree Sean-John, I think that the "appearance" of a neighborhood says a lot about that neighborhood.
