Only 30% Of New Yorkers Are Happy With City’s Quality Of Life, 50% Plan On Leaving Within Five Years

Believe it or not, high prices combined with massive taxation and out of control crime aren’t the keys to keeping the citizens of major American cities happy.

Such was reflected in the results of a new poll, reported on by the NY Post, which revealed this week that only half of New Yorkers plan on staying in the city over the next five years.

A mere 30% said they were happy with the quality of life in the city, the poll – run by The Citizens Budget Commission – also revealed. Additionally, the poll also found merely 37% of New Yorkers now rate public safety in their local area as excellent or good. This marks a significant decline from six years prior, when 50% of residents felt positively about their neighborhood’s safety.

  1. But none of those slaves will do anything about it, or move. I predicted the demise of NY many years ago and I was correct, as I have always been and always will be!

  2. Build a wall around the city….make it a max security prison.
    Oh damn, that movie was called Escape from New York.
