I hear all three terms.  "Negro" seems to be preferred among older, conservative, educated people.  My suggestion is to listen to what those around you say and imitate it. 

I happily surprised to see that you have a good understanding of "Nigger".  Very few foreigners have a grasp of its significance and think they are "cool" if they use it.
