Where did the safety maps go? Native New Yorker, born and raised, trying to figure out a way to come home and occasionally check out rents and what neighborhoods have changed (not much oddly) but now the thread seems to have disappeared.

They were probably deemed "racist" by someone who didn't like them up top all the time

Here you go: http://www.city-data.com/forum/new-y...fety-maps.html

It's still alive, just not a sticky anymore

Honestly it didn't seem very useful, too arbitrary

Quite a few neighborhoods have changed, you would be shocked if you've been gone for more than 10 years

Rents are relatively expensive everywhere, finding a 1BR for under 1100 anywhere other than Staten Island is hard

Yeah but some stuff hasn't changed as much as I thought it would, like Alphabet City. They're still yellow even though they seem to have Duane Reades on every corner now. Maybe it was red when I lived there but I just didn't realize it.

Alphabet City is very gentrified, at least Avenue A and B

C is in transition and D is still pretty ghetto

But it's subjective, someone who lives on Long Island and doesn't go to NYC for anything other than Ranger games will probably have a different perception of somewhere like Sunset Park than someone who's more familiar with the city

Most of the red areas on those maps are yellow to me. It's all in perspective I guess.
