In reality, NY has a huge net out migration to FL.
meaning NYC is losing the wealth and brain power. In return, NYC gets the illegal immigrants and woke mob. On paper it might look like its a even trade

To fools, and apparently the governor too, this is a good trade.

You have high paying jobs in the city so it still attract talent and you have social media influencers/YouTubers who hype the city up.
Those folks moving down to FL...they'll be back in a few years.
This has not been the case for like... ever. Majority of the people who leave NY never come back. That is why NY has a net demographic domestic migration loss literally every year, and especially with the states like FL. In fact, in most years NY is a loss leader in the whole country when it comes to domestic migration, even worse than IL.
The only reason why our population is still barely growing is babies and international immigration.
NY is more than just NYC but who cares about the rest of NY? Same with FL or any state really.
California has 40MM people and a huge land area, how much do you hear of Stockton, Fresno, or Sacramento?
It's quite sad really and I agree w/you. NY can do so much to revitalize upstate but all the money gets sucked up by NYC. For example, once you get to Albany, rents actually become affordable.
You would think that a place like the state capitol with all the politicians and lobbyists would attract more business investment? But instead parts of it look like a zombie apocalypse after 6 PM.
