  • They said the problem was “widespread”. I’m saying it’s not like everywhere you look, but it feels worse than it is if you only go to the high traffic areas where homeless people go to beg for help.

    Cost of living is rising higher than salaries everywhere. This isn’t unique to New York.

    The fact that homeless people exist is a poor reason to avoid New York, in my view. People act like you’re going to be wrestling with the homeless every day.

    We should do more than ignore the homeless, but that’s a separate conversation.




  • If you live here you don’t really go through Penn station. That’s a major commuter hub.

    I’ve lived here for years and only go there if I need to go to NJ transit for some reason (which isn’t often).

    That’s like thinking all of NJ is Secaucus train station, or all of someplace else is just the airport. It’s not representative.
