We're not behind in supply. There are more empty homes than there are unhoused people even. There are hundreds of thousands of units unrented in NYC alone. The argument that building more and with more density will reduce rents has literally not held up anywhere. I'm just going to respond to this by calling you a fucking idiot who isn't showing their work because that's literally all you're doing.

You don't have a fucking clue because your argument is not holding water. There are other solutions. BUILD MOAR is not the answer. You're a fucking idiot who isn't showing their work

I have also seen this scam more than once. They came to my door about 2 - 3 months ago - at night @ 8 pm or so! Claiming to be from the city! Pffft! Get the hell away from my door. No badge, no ID and so late a night....I could also hear them ringing other bells and spewing the same claptrap. Trash peddlers.

Great area, very bad for pedestrians....people drive like total lunatics. Lock your doors, don't walk home alone at 4 a.m. and you'll be just fine. Just FYI: the homes in that area sell for millions of dollars. It's not on the way up, it IS up.

You know what's really wild? On my return commute this evening, I passed a car with the exact make, model and color as this morning's. I took the plate number, just in case. Not planning on doing anything with it, just storing it.

Edit: These are good suggestions, thank you. I don't think it's worth the time spent to file a police report, I think it would be a lot of stress for zero outcome. But it's good to know what my resources are in the area.
