South Cobb has a lot of blacks and is middle-class.

Marietta has become very penetrated with white, black, hispanic, and so forth. Kennesaw and Smyrna are pretty too. GWINNETT COUNTY: All walks of life live here.

Many people, especially us blacks call Gwinnett a 'white county' which is NOT true and is one of the biggest lies in history. This area has become very diversed with a deal of hispanics, followed by the blacks, you have other races such as Korean, Vietnamese and Indians have in.
