Goodbye, Washington DC.:
Mayor Bowser broke her contract with residents like me. So we’re leaving.

Born and bred city guy flees Washington D.C. for the country. You really need to read the whole thing to get the full impact.

HA! I just read this. Great piece. I’m from NYC too, and what he says is true. One of the real pleasures of city life is not having to know or care what anyone is doing, or thinking. You deal with people as you find them, then you move along. But all these attempts at coercing people to feel a certain way, or think a certain way, are going to backfire, BIG TIME.
I hope this fellow learns to love the non-city as much as I have. Feeling very grateful the Lord led me to where I am today.

The guy is a seriously slow learner—lucky thing he figured it out before it cost him his life.

Real Estate sales outside NYC are painting the same picture, the New Yorkers are fleeing and buying up homes in the Jersey ‘Burbs or even in NEPA, just to get away from Cuomo and DeBozo

Not really, you could have lived in Queens your entire life and never be a victim of a crime.
People have
But that isn’t the case anymore

It seems like a lot of big cities are doing everything they can to cause white flight. I guess I shouldnt be surprised, the liberals openly despise white men. Its as if the left is pushing for segregation only the segment they want for minorities is big cities.

Yeah I’m thinking once is once too many. Last time I was in the dc area in 2005 I noticed an absence of street signs. I thought that was very peculiar. Anybody else been in that area and make that observation?

The Chinese CCP is pretty flush with cash. Maybe they will take advantage of the fire sale prices and snatch up some prime property.

Is it prime property anymore?

Is it only White people who are leaving the city environment? Maybe the POC’s have a higher tolerance for lousy living conditions.

The big cities are destroying themselves. Will those fleeing them accept the suburban or rural life, or will they try to convert their new homes to be like the big cities they fled?

No, I dont think its only white people leaving and I certainly hope anyone who isnt on board with this nonsense has the means to get out now but what Im saying is there seems to be a concerted effort for segregation and the cities seem to be the target.
