So let's step back...this is what you're replying to:

Do you see the 3 words I bolded for you? So how does that jibe with me putting words in your mouth?
It almost seemed like you were directing towards me because you were arguing with what I said and then you added Abbott and DeSantis into the mix.
But whatever. I, personally, think Republicans need to grow up as well. This division between the left and right is out of hand and why this crisis never ends. Neither party wants to come together. Whatever one party does, the other wants to do the opposite.
I do remember during election for mayor, I specifically told people here that they should vote for Pepitone. But nope, it had to be one of the two dorks- either Adams or Sliwa. And then we wonder why NY is falling apart…
You're comparing your official numbers from a janky website to Stanford University. Tells me everything I need to know about you. I'm going to stop debating you now.
The 2020 census numbers are OFFICIAL straight from the U.S. Census Bureau. Go look up the official population number of NYC anywhere and they will all say 8.8 million in 2020. You on the other hand decided to use some source that talks about hypotheses and theories on how the population figure may not be accurate.
That tells us all we need to know how shaky your argument is.

The official numbers also don't take into account the large number of illegal immigrants. You can add 1-2 million more to that number.

Of course I make zero sense when you prefer to ramble than look at the sites I mentioned. You just said in your prior post that NY hasn't seen the price appreciation of FL and now you're right back to saying NYC has rebounded (which it has not).
What is PE? Is that an acronym for something?
Not everyone from those places are oligarchs. And according to you, the average NYer is seeking million-dollar condos? I wish people would think critically before typing this stuff. It's a bad look. So like your buddy antinimby, I'm done debating you too because you talk and talk without the credible data.
It's clear you have no idea beyond what you read (at a surface level) in an article here or there.
PE = private equity
Btw, the average NYCer is buying homes/condos/coops in the $1MM range.
The median (not even average) home price in Brooklyn is $900K. Which means 50% of homes are selling at $900K+. So yes, the average NYer is seeking homes in the $1MM range. If a household makes ~$200K, they can pretty easily afford a $1MM home.
The fact that you think $1MM is abnormal in NYC shows that you're clueless. You're not qualified for this discussion. $1MM doesn't even get you anything incredible in NYC.
Long life government employee Adams has no clue how the private sector works.

“And this is just the beginning,” said NYC Partnership CEO Kathryn Wylde, whose business group analyzed figures compiled by the numbers firm Emsi Burning Glass.
The key industries with the highest jump in virtual-work offers amid the coronavirus pandemic included administrative, information and financial services.
These Banks are backdooring tons of WFH positions but placating the Mayor by mandating vaccines and calling for employees to come back to work.
Jamie Dimon actually wants everyone back along with that Morgan Stanley CEO and Goldman Sachs too. It's not just for show.
Bank of America has had people going in Charlotte and only paused briefly during Delta Peak and now Omicron. But they're also shedding more talent than a Malamute sheds hair so interpret that approach as you will...
