The exclusivity of having lived so far uptown that half of the maps of “Manhattan” don’t include your neighborhood.
Interestingly Israel’s potential first Mizrahi prime minister has an Ashkenazified last name (Azencot which became Eisenkot).
Very amusing that the most prominent American producer of Italian-style cheeses is from Denmark, Wisconsin
Contra the YIMBYs San Francisco and Manhattan are both on this list 😜
The worst housing market over the last decade is somewhere people would least expect.
Manhattan.
Values in New York County dropped by -11.9% from September 2016 to 2026, falling from 1.41M to 1.24M.
Which is an astounding -51.2% drop in inflation-adjusted terms.
Condo/co-op/townhome values inn Manhattan are now at record lows compared to incomes and rents.
Making it one of the most undervalued housing markets in America, despite it's still expensive price tag.
Values have actually started turning recently, up 3% YoY.
Meaning it could be a good time to buy in NYC.

My Irish ancestors came to
America as passengers on American Airlines 🤣
My Irish ancestors were slaves bought and sold by Jewish people. And you expect me to care about antisemitism?
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Irish people sent to the Americas were primarily indentured servants under temporary contracts, not chattel slaves. No historical evidence supports claims they were bought and sold by Jewish people; this relies on the debunked Irish slaves myth.
