Yes, cheap air travel explains it to a degree.

But the Catskills are so close to NYC. And yet still very depressed in general.

I would think real estate should be higher being so close to NYC.

When other destinations became cheaper than the Catskills, there was more competition.

There was also a generational aspect to it. The Catskills was truly something that worked for people who would primarily be in their 90’s now.

I spent 10 summers there in the sixties and seventies.
