I know a lot about Sheepshead Bay. I own an apartment near Kings Highway that I rent out so I'm in Brooklyn quite often. The Asians are relatively newcomers to Brooklyn, especially southern Brooklyn. Ave U is very Asian but if you go just a few blocks way, the very well maintained houses on the quieter streets are almost all Jewish owned. The Russians tend to live in the older apartment buildings. The Asians like to build the newer cookiecutter Fedder buildings but the poor ones will live in any place they can find.

Glad I'm not a newcomer, I'm a native. Or being even close to alike to any one of them. And my neighbor is a Chinese man who's been in sheepshead since the 60s.

Brooklyn is the most segregated city period.
You and this thread is such a waste of time. I feel like I'm talking to a 5 year old. Brooklyn is not a city btw.

Some Russians are white.
Some look more East Asian.
Others look Middle Eastern.

If you don't think Brooklyn is segregated as hell get your head out of the bubble, the world isn't that friendly.

Let's compare New York real estate with Jersey and other generic states. What a joke. LOL
There are many Asians at CUNY, including the two year community colleges with terrible graduation rates.

And if you're Chinese you know the gaokao exam. It's an exam people take in China. Top scorers go to a top university in China for free. Lower scores can go to a mediocre university that they PAY for. Those who score lower go to a bad university that they pay for. Those who score poorly don't get to go to an university and have to get whatever ****ty job.

You must not see many Chinese people then! I grew up in an apartment and I am Chinese. So now you've "met" someone!

I still live in the $1.9 million corner house that these Russians harassed me about like, "how did you buy this house?" giving looks like no way an asian can buy this house but at the same time all the Russians live in apartments...They even asked me if they could rent a room in my house.. I was like no. wtf. So why are Chinese people considered lower class to Russian people? You people are not even "white", you do not make a lot of money, and are the most uneducated, lowest income immigrants to reach my property. But I guess because chinese people look different genetically from them, they consider them as worse. I go to Baruch College and my sister goes to Columbia University, best colleges of New York. We both pay for it.. Just stop the bull**** already... I can't stand the lower class because they try to bring me down as well.

"I am not a White Man" inferiority complex detected
