I could say the People I grew up with also had better Moral Values but that has become too individualist and subjective because the majority of the Populations Moral Values are extremely divers compared to when I was a Kid.

My perception is the same. I can't say what was the reality. For poor blacks, it was probably worse, but their families were still intact. OTOH, they were more subject to random searches, and police brutality. For middle class, suburban whites, it was a pretty good time to grow up.
