Room rents too high I guess.
I moved from Maryland to Western New York in 2023. Apparently me and my family weren't enough to move the needle.
Well duh they have to be quick. If they're not gonna steal the houses someone else will.
Huh. We've been considering moving to upstate NY from central CA, promarily due to ecological factors like climate, air quality, and what seems like the threat of eternal drought. I like central California well enough, but I'm dead sick of 117 degree Augusts and casually living with air quality that makes your eyes water.
Anyone got some insight on why NY lost so much population?
Watch Rossman Repair’s ordeal trying to rent a shop in NYC ultimately leaving the state.
That population loss, driven by the pandemic, effectively wiped out nearly three-quarters of the population gains made during the prior decade.
Pandemic hit the city hard and people do not want to go back for overpriced closets.
