Astoria has turned into a over-priced ghetto
I agree strongly. Non-stop overnight fireworks… Small brain, loud muffler, attention seeking drivers… Loud junk music with vulgar lyrics on the street, in the public parks day and night… Lot’s of f-word, n-word, b-word in people’s mouths… Ghetto culture invading everywhere. I was concerned with overall gentrification but this is worse. I see families running onto the road to not to get hit by delivery scooters riding full speed on the sidewalks when walking the kids. Is this the Progressiveness we were promised? Thank you but no thank you. They messed up the city really bad. This is coming from an immigrant. I cannot imagine how people who were born here and raised kids, grand-kids here feel like seeing the deterioration. I am glad that I did not buy a house here. Cannot wait next year to move out.
I was born here, own a house here, and also look forward to YOU moving out. Do us all a favor and don’t wait until next year.
I signed a yearly lease and still have respect for agreements and the law unlike some other people.
Agreed. Ghetto culture reigns supreme these days. I used to think a shorter commute was worth living in the city.
