It's interesting that we've seen hundreds of stories about looting, but all the stories seem to come from two locales: Union Beach NJ and the Coney Island/Belle Harbor/Far Rockaway strip.

These two places have one thing in common - they are located right next to low-income housing projects.

Hundreds of cities and neighborhoods, and these two seem to get all the attention.

Looting in Far Rockaway wouldn’t surprise me one bit. But I haven’t seen any stories about looting in Belle Harbor. Could you please direct me to one/some?

I did find this about Rockaway Beach - bayside in the 80’s - and yes, the area abuts the Hammels projects. Yikes!
