overrated city, weather is shit
West Coast is best coast
>tfw listening to Velvet Underground and imagining what New York was like back then
>>24724054
eventually all major cities are gonna be 100% gentrified. the high taxes, tight zoning restrictions, and such will ensure that only the rich will be able to afford living there
>tfw living in the same apartment for the last four years
>city expanding faster than it should
>in the last year, my neighborhood went from having nothing but fast-food and taco stands to having a Starbucks, Chipotle, Yogurt shop, Pho and upscale pizza restaurant, etc.

but it was edgy as fuck and that's what I want to experience. drugs. hookers. degenerates. pimps. all that shit
Gentrification has always been a thing. There just hasn't always been a stupid buzzword for it.

Secede asap please

>gentrification
>a bad thing
This is literally the ONLY issue on which I side with the reactionary right wing. More wealthy individuals in a city means more tax income which means more money for the government to use on things like road improvement and law enforcement. If you think living is just about working for minimum wage and living in rent controlled apartment with your "bitch" and having children for no real reason then you have no place in a modern city. Sorry but it is true.
CBGB's in the 1970s - early 1980s was virtually
the only redeemable aspect of New York Shitty.
Everything else is le trash. Sorry Anon's that you can't buy hookers on Times Square anymore! boohoo!
faggy liberals > violent shitskins

Get out normie, gentrification vastly increases rent and living expenses in neighborhoods while decreasing crime and increasing tax income.
What that means for us NEETS is that our federal tax benefits will not increase to meet the new cost of living, and in doing so force us out of our homes.
You can argue the positives all you want, but if they are only there for hipster faggots and rich people to enjoy, then what is the point for us?
When white people leave a city and take their taxable income away it's "white flight." When they come back it's "gentrification." Why are white people so problematic? What's the deal?
>tfw I already did

YOu should look into the gentrification of vancouver, and the hundreds of homes in the lower mainland being bought by Wealthy Asians to never be used except to increase property value, or the Arabs buying the tenant housing only to kick families out, rebuild the home, and increase rent twofold.

Why are whites like this? I thought you guys loved the free market?

eventually the free market will sort it out but it might not be in a timeframe that makes life easy for the people involved.

Because they aren't actually partaking in Canada's economy, almost none of them are even living here at all.
It's very similar to a monopoly buyout in that by owning a vast majority of the land here, they are able to artificially increase property value across the board, even if everyone else suffers for it.
