New York is in Trouble...

New York city is changing, big time. Over the past year, city life has become drastically different and things will never go back to being how they were before the pandemic. Work from home is a reality for many people, and a necessity for many companies who need to function even if the city cannot. Also, restaurants and businesses have been shut for quite some time and the NYC experience / New York City experience isnt what it used to be. How long do you think it will be until NYC Recovers?

I was born and raised in the Bronx. NY is called the city that never sleeps because there is always something to do, or somewhere to go 24/7. I don't live there anymore, but it was pretty cool to go dancing all night, and leave a club when the sun was coming up. A bagel bakery, diner or coffee shop was within walking distance, where I would get breakfast. Afterwards, I could stand on any street corner and hail a taxicab, to be home in 10 minutes. I had a friend who called me one night saying she was craving a good burger. She walked 4 blocks to my house, we caught a cab to the upper east side, ate our cheeseburgers, and were in our beds by 3am. In a few hours, I got up and went to work. That's just what NYers do!

As a native New Yorker who’s parents grew up in Brooklyn and Queens after being here for most of my life I want to leave. As much as some New Yorkers can try to persuade themselves, the truth is things won’t ever be the same and this isn’t the NYC I grew up loving. 90% of small businesses are projected to permanently close and unfortunately that leaves opportunities for large franchises and big businesses to swoop in take over. Turning blocks from mom & pops to fast food and fast fashion chains which sucks. I don’t blame anyone for leaving the city or moving to other states. It’s really not the same quality of life anymore.

It sucks to see the amount of homelessness grow. Thankfully indoor dining is resuming this weekend but this definitely isn’t going to be the same city it was for a few years, it’ll take time to repair. And while I have love for this city and the culture, it’s still not affordable or functional compared to other states and places that haven’t been as badly affected by lockdowns.

I don’t like either apartment too much but, I can also see that people aren’t very creative either. People move to the city often for money. They may not be willing to live in the burbs and they may not want to be a homesteader or farmer. Maybe they want to live in the city temporarily. They have a higher paying job and lots of places to go and see. Sometimes, being in the city is merely for the earlier stages in life, to later be replaced by something more comfortable and spread out and many people want different things and different points in their life. Some of it, as the YTer said, is spurred on by the pandemic though.

New Yorkers just don't realize that the vast majority of folks find such living incredibly depressing - packed in like sardines, dirty, crowded, no greenery, constant noise and people (in normal times). We love to visit, take in a few plays, restaurants, do some touring but live there? Two guys from NY moved here recently and were stunned at what $600k will buy. One said he saved 10.5% in personal taxes, thousands a year for a car (fees and parking), over $1000 on food, and $15k/yr in property taxes. They had an inherited 3 br 1100 sq ft in Hempsted that sold for $400k!!! (Their new home has 3300 sq ft on 1.5 acres.) They keep saying they "escaped".

The movie Escape from NY comes to mind. Appreciate what you do. It's nice to see inside what I consider the greatest city in the world.

No one in their right mind would pay that much to rent either one of those. Get out of NYC.

Hey Cash, I saw one of those whatever they call them...spirit balls? floating between the 6:00-6:14 mark. It flew right towards the camera...in the basement of course!

It’s a camera irregularity or a dust particle
