Of course, not everyone can just pick up and move back to NYC.
Earlier this year, Jenn, who works for a radio station and declined to give her last name, moved out of her apartment on West 87th Street with her husband and two daughters, ages 4 and 8.
When June came, I lost my mind and agreed to buy a pool that came with a home in Albany, said the 44-year-old, half-jokingly.
The former Upper West Sider said she misses everything about the city, but agreed to stay put considering her husband loves the burbs and her kids are thriving.
Someday, when she and her husband are empty-nesters, she hopes to return.
I just cant believe that I have to wait that long, she said.
Kids thriving not in the city? Who would have thought???????
Stupid people.
I just didn’t leave because I don’t like dating my sisters, riding pickup trucks, having theater showing at the local Barn, among other things :-)
“The former Upper West Sider said she misses everything about the city....”
Yeah, like the looting, rioting, crammed subways, pickpockets....oh, and COVID. I’d miss that crap too. NOT!!!
Her kids won’t be raised on the streets. Maybe she thinks they will be deprived of thrilling adventure tales.
