Well, when you stuff 8.5 million people in an area with no space to grow? What do you think will happen?

I was there for four days in Dec. Stayed primarily around the theatre district. It was full of visitors and tourists and it was great. The area was clean and people were enjoying themselves.

I’m sorry, but when did you used to feel safe hanging out in the Bronx? Are you KRS-One?

I was there all this week and last. It’s as shitty as any other urban area. Jersey City 4 Lyfe!

I hope all the tourists in Times Square and Central Park were able to avoid it.

A tourist got shot in Times Square two weeks ago.

Never was a huge fan but it used to be halfway decent to visit and do a few fun things.


Would you mind sharing your previous visit in the Bronx at 5 AM on the subway?

We went to Manhattan in October. Had a great time. No one is vacationing in the Bronx.

They should have avoided the high end tennis shoe store. No one is getting shot at the Disney Store or weird Asian emoji store.

I don't think most people realize just how large NYC is. You could multiply the population of New Orleans by 10, and that would just be 1 borough.


Haven’t checked the math, but a tour guide told us that if NYC and Brooklyn separated, Brooklyn would become the 4th largest city in the country (think Houston), and NYC would still be No. 1.

I preferred it when the man was shooting the attackers.

I was there a few years ago. Never had the desire to go, but it was on the wife's bucket list. Neither of us have a desire to go back. Of all the places to go, I'll never understand why people want to vacation in NYC. Too many people, weather sucks, and EVERYTHING is overpriced.

I went there in 2018. Never had any issues. Walked to my Airbnb in a Queens neighborhood with a South American influence. It was kinda shady, but I never felt unsafe. Went and saw Yankee Stadium. The Bronx sucks. Manhattan is/was nice though.

It’s a huge tourist attraction but I would go to ground zero for sure. Not sure what else.
