WRONG! Astoria these days is a mixture of legal Brazillian, Indian, and Egyptian immigrants, along with young professionals who have been priced out of Manhattan. I myself don't find Eurotrash to be superior. Jackson Heights main problem is with the illegal Mexicans spilling over from Corona.
What happened to the Greek population in Astoria? I haven't been there in about 6yrs.
Thanks for the info on the Greek community in Ast. 50%, if you take out the public housing complex, was a vast maj. back then.
As to JH, I don't think that it's all Mex. or from Corona. There are all kinds of Central and South Americans. For many years there was a dam on Roosevelt Ave at Junction and at 51ST. In the late 70's it moved west to 74St. By the 80's the pressure became too great and the Woodside- JH area was inundated from both east and west. I was born and raised in the Newtown section of Elmhurst, then spent 30 yrs. in Woodside between Queens Blvd and Roosevelt. As a college student I delivered mail in Elm. & JH on my vacations. What's happened to that area is a sin.
