Okay, that is silly.

Co-op City is huge and is its own neighborhood.
(I've never even heard of "Baychester" but I've heard of Co-op City.)

Starrett City is a separate neighborhood from East New York.

Starrett City, Spring Creek, New Lots, Cypress Hills, and City Line are all part of ENY.

That would be in City Line. I would expect that the South Asian population in ENY to continue to grow as they expand outside the boundaries of Richmond Hill and Ozone Park.

There's lots of Bangladeshis right near the Euclid Avenue stop on the A train. Is that "City Line"?

Are the Bangladeshis in East New York moving from Richmond Hill? I thought the South Asians there were Indo-Guyanese?

From the more expensive parts of Queens, like Jackson Heights and Astoria...

Euclid Avenue to the Queens border is City Line, from a subway map perspective. I think the actual border of City Line is Crescent Street though.

More so Ozone Park. Ozone Park and City Line are close to one another.

So the Bangladeshis now in East New York used to live in Ozone Park?
I didn't realize Ozone Park was a Bangladeshi neighborhood.

I thought it was more of an Indo-Carribean neighborhood (i.e., Indo-Guyanese)?

The Bengali people in ENY can be from anywhere, it's not like ethnic groups migrate only to neighboring neighborhoods. It's not like the Bengalis in Parkchester appeared out of thin air.
