I remember Camden from the mid 1960s. Just starting to get bad. There were still polish meat markets to buy great kielbasa,and mom and pop corner stores for a bottle of Frank's soda and a few comic books. Those old row homes in the photos were actually quite nice and roomy. I have a lot of great Christmas memories with family from back then. It started to get bad when my cousins had to run to school and run home again. The black kids would beat them up every chance they got. They would take their money and their shoes. All my relatives got out in the late 1960s. Now Camden looks like Somalia. Gee...I wonder what happened?

Are you telling us that there used to be a big number of White people living in Camden then ?
