I can't see how it can be any worse than it is now, but you live there and if you can say it is better now than in the FC, then good for NY. Let's face it though. Cities like New York Hell LA, Frisco, Chi Town, Philly, have become crappy places to live compared to a few decades ago. And those in charge seem unable to move the needle in a positive direction.

You might be better off. Watching those news stations leaves you madder than when you first tuned in. I still don't know what news station is totally independent to give both sides to an argument. Certainly not CNN, MSNBC, Fox or Newsmax. And please don't put in a plug for NPR. They are as biased as they come.

ChiMo, this thread is very much in vogue today as I hit the computer. For some reason I was totally and thoroughly pissed off yesterday at everybody and everything. I got totally carried away and felt I needed a time out. Amazing how people, newspaper editors, politicians, and even friends sometimes can drive a person off the wall.

TV news of any kind is pretty pointless. It has low information density and is always sensationalist.

You want good information, the news pages of the WSJ, WaPo, and NY Times are fairly decent, as long as you watch out for their biases. Their opinion pages are all seriously suspect.

NYC is better to live in than 3 decades ago if you have a place you can afford to live. The only real problem (and it is huge) is the cost of renting or buying a place to live.

Reasonably unbiased but I find its information density is too low.

I listen to it rarely and almost always while driving.

I used to listen to it a hell of a lot more often before the traffic report became obsolete.

There's one flaw here: older rent controlled/stabilized units lose their status if the renter moves out. So those cheap units cannot be passed on to other low end renters unless the landlord opts for it.

The allegations about crime, the homeless, and illegal aliens. Like if they weren't around in the '90s. Some of the other things were also pretty minor, like the bike lanes. I personally find them annoying, even a little dangerous, but it's because I have to change my street crossing habits.

What about Statin Island Spider?????? It is part of New York City but from what I remember when last visited it almost 20 years ago it looked like a nice place to live with a great deal of neat homes and greenery to make it almost suburban like. Please don't tell me that it has gone to seed too. I was impressed with what I saw there back in the day and hope it is still a place where New Yorkers can still live in the city and not be inundated with smoke skies and some foul air like to many big cities today.....and, yes, that includes the two big ones in my state.

Nothing new there. I'll guess that I'm several months older than you. That said, back in the 70s WABC TV pioneered in the concept of "happy news". The 6 O'clock news was anchored by Roger Grimbsy and Bill Beutel.
It tried to put a light hearted spin on the stories of the day. The concept worked. Ratings went thru the roof. It all came crashing down when weatherman Tex Antoine made a lighthearted comment about how women should react while being raped. He was fired before the show was over & happy news suddenly got serious.

Crime is down so much since 1990 that it offsets any possible minor worsening of the other factors.

I agree our current mayor is way worse.

Crime sure was.

Illegal aliens? It's not as though you didn't run into help in the deli that didn't speak any English back then.

Homeless people camping out on the street? Nothing new.

Yeah, I do miss the 30 mph speed limit.

But the decrease in crime outweighs the others.
