When they are in better areas, their violent nature is kept in check. They must be kept away from black majorities. This theory has been around for a long time, as long as Europeans have been trying to civilize them. It still holds pretty well.
In more affluent areas, black culture is kept very low but I have seen plenty of areas where that changed and it ruined the place.

So just as I suspected, it's the culture.

Of course it's cultural. But is it accurate to define anything as black or white culture? Wouldn't it be more accurate to determine a culture geographically and historically? People of similar genetics have vastly different cultures and social values depending on their environment. The culture of Liverpool differs from the culture of Sussex, nothing racial about that.

genetics influences cultures, English of Liverpool and Sussex while differing some in culture will still share more than a Nigerian would with and English man of Sussex. Culture is the outward attitude of race.

The culture of black Americans differs from Caribbeans, differs from Africans, differs from British, differs from French, etc. It's convenient to suggest local towns are more similar racially, until you just go across some.water.to say, Scandinavia or Russia, then you see massive differences.

I have spent a good deal of time in the Caribbean, no it doesn't differ much. It does differ slightly but about as much as I would expect of a English man living on different sides of England, not much. There is no where on this planet where a black population has made a street, city, or anything good or better than it was.
Ghandi said blacks should never govern themselves, he was right.

But in a different culture they're disconnected from that history. Not genetics, but if it were genetics then raising them in a different culture shouldn't help.
