They see the light all the time and leave. Others move into replace. Still the city has been confronting some unflattering issues such the transportation, housing, and even the school system that will prevent many of these people from wanting to live here long term.

I don't think we'll ever see 1980s NYC again. At the rate we're moving we'll probably see something more like 1990s Leningrad instead.

New Yorkers are not a monolith

People love nyc and some don’t

I don’t know why people are ignoring the obvious demand of people that want to live here. Ignore every statistic if you want to

Americans as a whole like cars and houses. Of course SOME people like NYC style living. Not the majority of the American public.

Westchester isn't even cheaper than The Bronx last time I checked

Americans are polled when they vote, and NY style public transportation is clearly not a priority or concern for most Americans.

Indian and Chinese people tend to purchase homes on Long Island and the neighborhoods deeper into Queens and Brooklyn rather than in the more centrally located neighborhoods
