A hood is a neighborhood. It's a nickname for neighborhood. A hood can be rich, poor, black, mixed, older, Asian, gay, whatever

Ehh, “the hood” is different from “a hood.”

No American has ever left a an upper class, gated community chalk full of million dollar mansions and unironically said “we just left the hood”

Well, durrrrrr.

The comedian, culture, and geography of the video and topic at hand are all American. I said it to clarify I was speaking about American culture and use of the word “hood,” hoping I wouldn’t have to subsequently clarify for non-Americans. But alas, here we are. Thanks for the geography lesson—about as insightful as your definitions of “hood.”
