Agreed.
I was there in the 60’s for college and grad school.
Just a marvelous place. Safe, fast, what it was famous for.
The decline there and elsewhere is due to a slide in respect for merit and a rise in left wing navel gazing. Almost willed to happen.
I agree.
It was turned Bad at some point in the 70s I think.
I know when I was driving a cab in the early 90s, the whole west side was littered with prostitutes right out in the open at night, cars picking them up left and right. Police not stopping anyone. Drug deals everywhere.
So you were here when it was still very good, then it got bad and then rudy made it good again.
Now it got bad again.
Ya know, it’s ironic. People from the red states Hate when NYers move to their towns.
But I have known HUNDREDS of liberal small town guys and gals that left for the bright lights of the Big Apple.
Ironic
