Meh. They voted for it by voting Democrat. Start voting in Republican AG and DAs who will prosecuted these crimes, rather than coddle criminals.
How many people renting in that neighborhood even live there, or do they snowbird winter?
My house is in one of the most self identifying as conservative counties in Texas…Montgomery County. It is adjacent to Harris county, the third most populous county in the U.S,, which includes Houston.
A creek (Spring Creek) divides the two counties, and I-45 (which goes north to Dallas) crosses the creek.
On the Montgomery County side of the creek, on the east side, essentially the first thing there us the ‘new’ (only a few years old, and built for them) location of Northside Lexus.
A few feet beyond the edge of the dealership is this billboard:
I really wish folks would leave us city folks and for once pay attention to the crime in small conservative, and rural communities, which is pretty damn bad.
So many on the right believe that crime is only a big problem in big cities with Democratic mayors. Murder, mayhem, mass shootings, drug use, rapes, can and do happen everywhere. They're easy to see in crowded big cities. But just because there's less media and less visibility out in the boonies and MAGA land does't mean it's not happening there as well. It is.
It’s good to know New York has managed to make a comeback. I was worried the whole place was shot when they ran the hookers and drugs and peep shows out of Times Square. It was ruined for a long time.

Exactly! When I want to score drugs, squirt in a peepshow or pick up a dirty leg I want to travel to a place that accommodates that, not have that anywhere near my back yard.

That was funny!
I worked on 42nd and 8th from '79 - '81. The transformation was in the planning stages then. Jackie Onassis was spearheading the 42nd St. Redevelopment Corp.
I recently watched the Netflix documentary "The Times Square Killer" about serial killer Richard Cottingham. There was tons of footage of TS and 42nd Street the way it was back then. You might enjoy it for the trip down memory lane.
If the rent is that high, then the QOL is not that bad. Therefore this is sensationalism at its best
Im in Chelsea all the time. My company has property in the heart of it. You wont notice anything stated in the OP.
From what I am hearing it is pretty much confined to one block on 8th, and is centered around the adult book store.
I think NYC and the Chelsea neighborhood needs to lure Officer Avery (Sean) back. He would clean it up. LOL!
