Yeah for the white gentry crowd, the Bronx doesn't really offer anything that Brooklyn doesn't. It's no longer cheap.

That could change eventually, but right now I don't think it will gentrify the way Bed Stuy and Bushwick have.

And I agree with you that a lot of white people are oblivious to what race relations are actually like . It's like when boomers act like their neighborhood growing up was like Sesame Street, but fail to mention that this was because of white flight happening at an unthinkable pace.

There’s a 300,000 square foot former university on 400 acres about 100 miles north in Dutchess county on the market for $16 million. There are hundreds of rooms there that could house migrants for a fraction of the cost of housing them on some of the most expensive land in the planet earth.

If they were able to work, there are also plenty of farms that could benefit from migrant labor up there.

Also, the more money you make, the more money you pay for “affordable housing.” Somebody who makes $100k would pay $2,500 in rent, whereas someone who makes $30k would pay $750. Let’s say market rate is $3k, so it’s losing $500 vs. losing $2,250.

People misunderstand what public defenders are for when they think they have any interest in public safety. They have one (1) job and it’s to help accused criminals get away with it.

I’d imagine they make you sign a contract agreeing to the terms of employment and would threaten a lawsuit if you breach it.

They are only in legal limbo because blue voters want immigrants to sit in NYC while they await a lengthy trial process.

Stop granting asylum claims

I was just thinking that!

Blue voters asked for this.

Last I saw he was on-stage brambling on about the nurse at the hospital that whispered in his ear and made him horny.

It’s called garden leave and it’s been a thing since forever

Policing measures reducing crimes. That must be surprising to the far-left ideologues in this sub.

Let’s see if this lasts after the funding to keep 10 cops in each station dries up.

When murders can drop 26% and make news, that usually means there was a problem before.

You know, bikes and rent cause flame wars, but I don't recall many major disagreements about Adams 🙃

Those low cost living areas in the city have a waiting list of New Yorkers that need it. The shelters are full, they would have to move them out of the city to get low cost housing. It would be unfair to give a migrant the housing that was promised to our own citizens. That would just provide a huge divide between the people in the city. The cost of living in NY for housing keeps increasing, so much so that some of the “affordable housing” units being built apparently need a required salary of $75+. We have corruption all over the city when it comes to housing too. I saw a building labeled adoptable housing on the lottery that require $100,000 income in Queens. I question how someone that makes that much requires a building built by a program meant for needy NYers.

It really is. My wife worked there and left practically traumatized. Fuck that place.

Where do I find this?
