Okay, what language is "bougoise" then? That word doesn't exist, in any language.
Lol, I agree. We both know what the poster was trying to say though. Even if the poster used the term correctly, it's still used in English vernacular although it is of French origin. But you knew that too (not being facetious).

I never saw anyone selling phones on any corner in Parkchester. While 75% of Parkchester could still be upgraded to an entirely safe population (without changing the income level), it is already 25% excellent and 75% okay (by my estimate, derived mostly from educational levels), which is far better than the Bronx average. Again, I do believe that the level of education is still the best screening marker for anybody's neighbors. An education-oriented community, no matter how poor, is always acceptably safe.
The South Bronx will gentrify long before Parkchester. Parkchester is too far away, and one million City Data posts will not change that. Still if someone wants to waste their time promoting Parkchester on City Data that is their right to do so.
I personally am not hoping for gentrification of Parkchester (if by that is meant the increase in the price of properties or rents), but that more good quality people (yes, that generally means better educated people) of limited means will find Parkchester on the map. More minority scholars/professionals would be EXTREMELY welcome!

Grow a sense of humor, lady.
