So some Blacks unable to afford Crown Heights are leaving the region and even the country altogether.

Being unable to afford high rents is cited as the prime factor.

This is nothing new. Its been happening for years if not decades already. Just because its now happening in black neighborhoods it is all of a sudden NYT coverage worthy.

NYT has been a zionist liberal tabloid for the last ten years or so. The executive editors are very clever in covering up their agenda though.

I believe he mean its been happening for years.. with all sorts of ethnicities, cultures, religions, ect that live in neighborhoods. Where "my people" settled, they certainly aren't there anymore. Many have come and gone from different cultures since.

I don't call the new York times, "the Jew York times for nothing."

I wonder if my boy in the Kremlin, Vladimir Putin wipes his butt using the NYT?

NYC has been one of, if not the most, expensive places to live in this country for some time now. You have ex-NYers spread out living all over this country. Go anywhere and you'll find someone that grew up in NYC. And even though they might not admit it, most cases they moved out of NYC because they could not afford to stay financially. They may say they couldn't wait to move out of NYC, and call it the pits or whatever, but in reality they likely had no choice.

And even in this current wave of gentrification, ethnic white and brown neighborhoods have been shredded apart at a much faster clip than black neighborhoods. Much faster. You really think more people have had to move out of Crown Heights than say Williamsburg? But the fact that it is now happening to black areas as well it is NYT worthy of reporting.
