That's one of the problems that now forms. Now that Bushwick's crime rate has gone down, and it's housing stock slowly improving, it makes it very difficult for the people that stuck it out through the hell years to be able to afford to stay.So improvement comes with many good things, but it also comes with bad. It's a double edged sword because while it was hell when it was full of abandoned buildings, burnt out shells, and rubble strewn lots, and drug dealers inhabiting them, while those are all but a thing of the past, the improvement brings it's own set of problems to those that stuck it out....or especially people that rent. While those that owned their homes also get to prosper from the new found prosperity in the form of higher property values. Those higher prices also begin to price out all those that rented all these years there when the neighborhood was hell. |
