I guess they don’t live nextdoor to Doug and Carrie Heffernon in Queens anymore.

People are leaving because of the taxes.

With movie studios still shuttered because of the coronavirus pandemic and businesses only just starting to remove the wooden boards put up after city-wide rioting following the death of George Floyd while being arrested by three white officers in Minneapolis, LA is now in the grip of white flight.

This line punched me in my tism.

I don’t have any doubt that there is an exodus of sorts from the state. With that said, it’s not like LA is going to become Detroit.

Calling LA one of America's great cities is quite the stretch

Upvote. Nobody has ever lived there. Downtown LA is like downtown Atlanta. A CBD (CENTRAL BUSINESS DISTRICT), nothing more. Be careful, and don't be there between 8PM and 5AM.

Yeah I highly doubt homelessness is the driving force. Money is always the driving force.

The real exodus is happening in San Francisco. Los Angeles hasn't seen much of a change in terms of home sales:


It’s happening right now. I just sold my house in Bakersfield and had 3 or 4 showings for people leaving LA. Real estate agents are getting more clients from LA wanting to move into the Central Valley where it’s cheaper and you can commute into LA 1-2 times a week.

LA ain't got shite on San Francisco



NYC is "dead forever"

quote:

The New York Times back in June asked the “agonizing” question: “Is New York City worth it anymore?” amid a mass exodus of an estimated 420,000 residents between March and May, when the coronavirus was really blowing up.

In July, there were a record 13,117 vacant apartments across Manhattan, according to a report by Douglas Elliman and Miller Samuel Real Estate Appraisers & Consultants. A year ago, that number was a 5,912. Also, new lease signings fell by about 23%, resulting in a drop in rental prices.


New York City has lost around 450,000 residents since February, that's around the population of Atlanta

Question here. If all the smart level headed, God-fearing and virtuous people are in Louisiana, why is it almost always dead last in category after category that matters? Fix Louisiana for once, then throw stones.


How in the world did you read what I wrote and come up with this ?

The one family I personally know that has left the area is a household of gun loving trump voters. Hopefully the majority of those fleeing are similar.

What the people fleeing don't realize is that in the long run, THEY are more dangerous than the rabble they are fleeing.

These Leftists are like locusts, they will not change their behavior, they will simply spread their destruction elsewhere....

I’d rather these retards stay where there at. I’m uncomfortable with multiple mentions of moving to Tennessee in the article.
