The upstate population numbers show that people are voting with their feet:

Buffalo maxed out their population at 580,000 in 1950.
Currently the population is 278,000.

Rochester: 332,000 in 1950, now 211,000.

Syracuse: 220,000 in 1950, now 148,000

Albany (state capital): 134,000 in 1950, now 99,000.

That is what the leftists call “progress”.

Yup.
I did.
Wife wants to move back; I refuse.
(Pity, I’d be delighted to move to Adirondacks or Finger Lakes areas.)
