New York City has lost nearly half a million residents over the course of just two years, newly released United States Census Bureau data reveals.

go woke, go broke. American's are waking up to the crazy ass left's insanity and getting the hell out of town

Americans moving out of deep blue cities is widespread, the Census Bureau data shows.

The second largest city, Los Angeles, California, and the third largest city, Chicago, Illinois, also lost residents over the course of two years. In Los Angeles, for instance, about 3.8 million residents remain in the city as of July 2022 compared to about 3.9 million residents in April 2020, a loss of about 100,000 residents.

I'd wager most moves were either direct or indirect COVID impacts and many taking advantage of work from home and work from anywhere during the great resignation rsther than your silly anti-woke fantasy

Gee, I guess former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo was afflicted by the same "silly anti-woke fantasy", eh Gristle?

The silliest fantasy by far is the one that insists you can jack up taxes again & again & again ad infinitum and the top earners won't vote with their feet and get the fuck out of town!

That article speaks to my point. Did you see the whole section about the hundreds of thousands that moved elsewhere due to COVID?

Just asking. Not trying to rustle your jimmies.

Covid isn’t why they left, it gave them the ability to do it.

[HDGristle]

Both, actually. His article supports my position better than his or yours.

Add a pinch of this.

A dash of this

COVID and the lockdowns were a next-level catalyst. For many a direct driver. For many an indirect driver. Add in the most insanely lopsided job-seekers market in 2 generations brimming with COVID-inspired workplace flexibility (remote work, hybrid models, work from anywhere all skyrocketed) and you have the means and incentive for a generational change.

Another ploy by the democrats, make it so bad the people that wouldn’t vote for you move thus assuring your reelection.

And you would be wrong

High Crime, Soros DAs letting criminal walk free, racial unrest, high taxes, scumbag illegals moving in, high cost of living

Normal Americans are sick of the leftist woke bullshit

[HDGristle]

So you keep saying. Show me the data points, not the inference.

[Salty Again]

... Co-vid or not... High taxes or not... ...

... THEY ARE GONE - from New York. ....

Yep. Some of them died, too. Let's remember that while tallying up political points.

As usual he's being untruthful. Murder and violent crime rates in NYC have been relatively low for the past 10 plus years. While there was a spike in 2022, it's gone back down in 2023.


In 2019 for example, it wasn't even in the top 65 US cities for murder rate.

It didn't make this list of the top 32 for 2021
https://time.com/6223217/homicide-rates-us-cities-2021/


According to the FBI it didn't make this list of the top 75 cities for violent crime per capita in 2022, even with the spike.

Well when you have Soros soft on crime DAs like the idiot in NYC putting criminals right back on the street, not prosecuting them, I am sure you can make the numbers look as good as you want

Alas the reality is people are fleeing NYS in droves because of high Crime, DAs letting criminals walk free, racial unrest, high taxes, scumbag illegals moving in, high cost of living
