the five counties that make up New York City lost the most jobs. Kings County (Brooklyn) shed 15,204, the biggest drop of any U.S. county. Kings was followed by Queens with a loss of 14,875 jobs. With New York County (Manhattan), Bronx and Richmond added, New York City had 52,120 fewer people employed in December 2019 compared with a year earlier.
Given the population of the five counties, that could be right. But I'd have to see the results for Los Angeles County--which is the most populous county in the United States and which has a total population greater than the five boroughs of NYC, and which is also run by leftists (thus, it wouldn't shock me if jobs killing regulations and taxes are negatively impacting business there, too)--before I'd say if this "sounds correct" to me.
sounds about right in general. Condo prices in queens are going down and staying on thw market for a while
