He’s right about checking the census bureau for numbers. Going through a neighborhood doesn’t always mean you’ll get an accurate view of what’s going on in the neighbourhood.

Example an area could have lots of Polish Americans, but because they don’t have a Polish accent you may not perceive them as such. A Brooklyn neighborhood could have lots of Dominicans right in front of your face and you may perceive them as other Latinos.

You need to be a bit more scientific about this.

Yeah, go get him

These silly posts that dont spark an ounce of conversation.

I'll let you guys be MoD for the rest of the evening if you can convince this kid why threads like this dont make sense.

Well the numbers are important of course, but I believe there are other factors as well such as concentration of ethnic businesses, and presence throughout the borough.

You're boring as hell yourself, and I don't understand why you bother coming in these threads if you don't like them.
