I hate to say it...but NYC is finished.

[Playa With Tha Passport]

I don't go there that often. I wouldn't necessarily know I live in hunts point and work in midtown. It seemed there were more Spanish folk out there than anyone else.

You know who I'm talking about though...I hate using this word but "hipsters". They an eyesore.

The Hipsters mostly n bk in Harlem

Hipsters idk if they would really be in queens like that aint really shyt in queens thats attractive lol

Same with bx

But there tryna move out all the lower class back people tho

Theres so many ppl ik from ny nj ct

Who have moved down south
Especially ny

 

[AB Ziggy]

anyone feel maybe cacs are trying to push minorities as a whole or lower income cats to the Midwest since it gets less coverage and attention as the big cities (LA, NY, MIA)?

Wouldn't that make more sense, get broke folks in Miss and make them kill each other, lesser police present, lesser money spent on the city as a whole and attend to those with the money.

Even Chicago and Cleveland is going under gentrification to an extent. They just want minorities out to the outskirts of cities and rural areas, period.

Astoria and even Jackson Heights is a pretty attractive location for hipsters.

Gentrification is happening everywhere. But that's what happens when you rent property instead of own it.

That's why it will be hilarious when they start pricing those Chicago "gangbangers" out of their turfs they keep killing each other over.

There's a difference though. It's easy to tell born and raised white people in Queens from these hipsters. One, they aren't afraid of people of color. Two, they aren't on that "look at me" Halloween 24/7 tip. Three, they actually are a part of the neighborhood. Not like this new breed. They are rude, they are intrusive, they feel like they can go anywhere. I'd take the former over the latter anyday.

So you're saying the yuppie type people generally don't interact with the long time residents?

I have no idea how New York intends to sustain itself when average rent prices are $3,000.

Everybody can't be rich. Where are the garbage truck drivers and security guards living?

Garbagemen in NYC make enough to comfortably live in most of NYC

"Is this the Q111 van"
*gestures 'yes yes' assuredly*

I always wondered though, what is the point of those vans, I can't imagine them being cheaper or more comfortable than a bus?

Back when gas was cheap the economics made sense. They also run a lot more frequently than buses. I used to live at the end of the Q111 line and there would always be 2-3 vans just chilling and waiting to go. Much faster and IMO more comfortable than buses too, but man those Jamaicans drove crazy

Yep, both neighborhoods are appealing (safe, subway access, close to Manhattan, not expensive for NYC standards).

Also I think a lot of people here are confusing "hipster" for "yuppie".

Damn I remember when Jackson Heights was all South Americans

It is mostly South American but there are plenty of South Asians and white people there too

I used to live in Jackson Heights, east elmhurst...

The spanish people will never move from there. I've seen all nationalities of spanish over there, now more than ever. you will not see a push by rich white hipsters in that neighborhood....

It's funny when you you used to say you from brooklyn, it's like wassup brownsville nikka...

Now it's more like: I'm from Brooklynnnn...

Partially I blame Jay-Z....

 

[BodeineBrazy]

Born and raised all my life here...but the older I get I really feel like it's just time to go.

Saturday I was visiting friends in Ridgewood, queens. I know Brooklyn is got got but damn! Where the fukk did all of these goofy white people come from? They all look the same too! Me and my boy were just grabbing some Dominican food from this one spot on myrtle and they were legit pissing me off!

The self entitlement, the disrespect towards the original residents, the absolute refusal to mingle with the locals. I fukking HATE these people now. Oh they racist too...thanks to all the jew landlords for inviting these people to kill this city. Thanks to Bloomberg for allowing this place to be turned into a luxury playpen for rich kids with no lives.

Now I see that there are still some kids that are trying to "make it" here...but unless you have a good job that brings in a lot of money or some lucrative side hustles just forget about it. I saw some kids that didn't even look like they were poor outside of a KFC asking people for money. Do you really want to come to new York and live with 15 people in an apartment and beg for change just cause? That's no life to live.

All and all...stick a fork in this bytch it's done. Storefronts closing everyday, for lease signs on the front, seemingly more homeless people than ever. Tons of luxury condos and steel and glass apartments popping up. I don't see this ever reversing itself.

man and the shyt happened so fast. thats the craziest part. they even in Brownsville now my nikka. Brownsville...

Yea...I got friends that made the move to Baltimore and Virginia. They were just sick of the city life and we're able to get more bang for their buck there.

Yessir. We welcome then with open arms and they just seem to give us odd looks or roll their eyes. Why do they have to be so disrespectful? I dunno....people feel slighted and take offense to kt.
