Half of all New Yorkers will flee city in next 5 years as quality of life plummets post-pandemic: poll
NY Post ^ | 03/19/2024 | Jesse O’Neill

Just half of all New Yorkers plan to stay in the city over the next five years, and anger over quality of life has skyrocketed since the pandemic — with just 30% saying they’re happy here, according to a damning poll from the The Citizens Budget Commission.

The non-profit think tank’s first such post-pandemic survey, released Tuesday, also found that only 37% of New Yorkers thought public safety in their neighborhood was excellent or good, down from 50% six years ago.

When asked if they planned to stay in the Big Apple until 2028, only 50% of those surveyed said yes, down from 58% in 2017, according to the CBC.

Half of the 6,600 households polled also said they felt unsafe riding the subway during the day, a drastic reduction from the more than four out of five New Yorkers who said so in 2017.

“That’s terrible news for the rest of the country”.

It sure is.

Hey New Yawkers, don’t come to Colorado. We’ve got people who carry rifles in the rear windows of their pickup trucks, avalanches, rattle snakes and real live Indians who carry guns. And those are only a partial list. Stay in Central Park!

There is no longer any particular reason for NYC to be anything special.
It was invented 300 years ago and was geographically lucky for most of its growth. (Location, Location, Location)

That’s all gone now.

Like a balloon letting it’s air out, it will collapse under it’s own weight.

Like the rest of NYS, it will be an abandoned husk, and will not revive within the lifetime of any person reading this post.

NO! NO! NO!

Thru your voting, you created this mess!

You need to live with this and experience it to your fullest.

New York, you wanted this. Now EMBRACE it!

It certainly doesn't sound good.

The southern states have gotten many of the more intelligent New York refuges fleeing their collapsing state. They have helped turn Florida into a solid red state.

Going forward southern states may very well see some of the worst, angry New Yorkers just looking for a safe harbor to dock and spread their toxic culture.

Terrible prospect.
