The only thing that will fix Upstate NY at this point is a mile-wide asteroid. I grew up in Endicott NY, once the safest town on earth, is now infested by ghetto welfare blacks from NYC. Same for Binghamton, JC, and numerous other upstate towns.
Add in the high property taxes and low employment. This is what you get from a state run by liberal snowflakes.
The secret to finding a great place to live? Avoid blacks.
So I guess you are going to have to move to the bottom of the ocean. No Black people live there.

The same thing happened to Newburgh, which is somewhat near where I used to live. But it's not necessarily blacks in all cases, the town my parents live in used to be a quiet small middle class town, whose population got nearly tripled by a huge influx of guatelaman and ecuadorian immigrants with huge families, now the crime rate has risen and so have taxes used to support these people, and their house's value is worth much less now...
My cousin's safe quiet town on long island got infested with crusties (white heroin addicts) who were priced out of places in the city and they cause a lot of trouble, throwing garbage everywhere, sleeping on streets, probably stealing
I don't know the secret to FINDING a great place to live, but the secret to maintaining the greatness of a place that's already great is to not let big hordes of people with no money or no job in...

A: There is no legal mechanism to keep people out of a place.
B: The reason why Trump won the election is because much of the MidWest has been reduced to poverty after big companies offshored jobs that pay well. As towns lost factories, people who had money to spend didn't have money to spend in that economy, and entire towns became much poorer from it, leading to some of the problems you mention.
C: The extreme fear of poverty that some people on City Data have leads me to conclude they are just a paycheck from disaster, and have no actual ability to live anywhere nice. So all they can hope for is ridiculous solutions like somehow the city is going to ship out all poor people (wrong ,de Blasio has been building affordable housing like crazy).
Rust belt and NY State are never going to recover no matter what happens with the economy. Politicians of both parties should have started being honest about the situation 25 years ago and developed programs to help people switch gears. Nothing but lies about bringing manufacturing jobs back blah blah blah. The human manufacturing era is over over over. Rust belt not coming back....neither is coal country.
The longer the lies persist the longer people will suffer.
Can't wait to see how many man powered mfg jobs and coal mining jobs are added to the economy in the next 4 years and what the minimum wage is in 2020.
I don't think manufacturing will mKe a comeback either. It would be nice to see educational opportunities opened up to help people transition to other fields. It would be better than people falling into minimum wage jobs/having to rely on tanf because really...tanf isn't permanent.
Anybody who thinks Trump is going to cut federal funding to NYC for being a sanctuary city is an idiot. The illegals do jobs nobody wants and NYC needs. If NYCs economy went down so would the entire countries as we are by far the most important city

Go **** yourself.. Happy scum like you only has the balls to talk like this behind your keyboard. Ban him.
Ignore the troll. The town he claims to live in is overwhelmingly white with a high poverty rate. I also suspect a high opiate abuse rate as wel.
I don't live there anymore, I was smart enough to leave lol. And yes there's plenty of white trash on opiates, mostly sold by black drug dealers from NYC. Just check the news everyday. And the "overwhelmingly white" percentage on city-data's figures is way off or outdated. Anyways, I just hope the next big flood washes the entire pile of garbage away.
