Bad optics as murders and violence, breathtakingly corrupt governance becomes the new normal there. Why would anybody want to return to such a pit?

Gotham City is actually in New Jersey.

Before you ask, Metropolis is in Delaware.

I love visiting New York. I love the food, the history, and all the stuff to do.



I could not imagine living there. Maybe when I just graduated it would have been fun, but after 7-8 days I’m ready to gtf out of there for a while.

I went there when I was at LSU, was ready to leave almost immediately, and have never had any desire to go back

I've only been in the summer time. That city smells worse than New Orleans!

I popped the question to my now wife in CP(cliche, I know). About 3 hours after that, we went to this restaurant in TriBeCa, and this heroin addict OD’d and died right next to us

Been once, saw the main sights and have never wanted to set foot there again. Like one poster mentioned above, I have never been to a place with a worse stench.

Visited twice. Once in 1963, I was 14. It was so exciting for a kid my age! Went there for a day trip in December 2019. I felt dirty by the time we left. Even Times Square looked shopworn and tattered.

DeBlasio and his ilk are crushing the worlds greatest city policy by policy. But I also just want to say that shopworn is a great word.

NYC is at risk for another decade like the 1970s, with massive outward migration and severe blight. I love the place and I hope it doesn't come to that, but that's where I think it's headed if they don't wake the frick up.

Covid was bad enough, but the recent push for even more relaxed enforcement of the law will make the place much less desirable for normal Americans.

I know, right, filth and people who hate me for what I think just draw me like a magnet.

The wealth is leaving. Many will not come back. Office space will change dramatically. Companies are going to embrace the cost savings realized by remote work. Heck, it was happening before covid.

The very high rents and property values are cratering already. There is more bloodletting to come.

Eventually, the city and state will have to raise income and sales taxes on those left behind and that causes a rapid spiral downhill.
