Why do Dominicans own so many Corner Stores in NYC

[ElMorenoFeo809]

Yeah

Dominicans be on that hair salon n laundromat wave mostly.

And auto shops and sketchy car dealerships. Also lets not forget the door to door buses where they transport drugs too.

Say goodbye to those businesses on jerome once the rezoning process really kicks in.

Just like @September said it's just a mirroring of back home. There's colmados everywhere so it's natural for us to get into the same shyt here. That plus hair salons and barbershops, auto shops all over Webster and Jerome in the bx, most of the livery cab bases, and a shyt load of bakeries and restaurants. We just in it to win it and keep those remittances going back home

Prolly a front for drugs too. Arabs got the heroin/opium hookup

Anthrax/ bazookas/ proximity mines

Anyone notice Dominican barbershops opening up all over the place. They are opening shop in black areas too. Crown heights and Flatbush! Just like the hair salons it looks like they are testing the waters in non-Dominican areas!

These Dominican barbers work 7 days...
It's a gamechanger

When you say Rezoning do you mean like gentrification?

And no appointment needed

Shut the thread down. This along with hair salons. They operate as fronts for the drug trade and illegal gambling spots especially in Washington Heights which was the center of the cocaine trade in NYC at one point.

Was?

It’s the only place I know loaded with 24 hour coke spots today

Couldn’t image Jerome not being the spot to pull up for a used tire or a cheap bondo job

 

[NY's #1 Draft Pick]

Dominicans

Where’d they go? Orlando?

The word rezoning means gentrification to most blacks and Latinos but a lot of our people don’t know that if these places do not get rezoned then rental prices will keep rising.
