“Ignoramus” here again. While doing some research to debunk yet another, evidence-free Polemical post, I found more recent census data and now update my response “at November 3, 2007 5:17 PM.”
“…we have incredibly expensive housing [in] a city that has barely changed since the [1961 zoning] law was enacted, despite the fact the population increased substantially.” Actually, no.
1. Official 1960 population for New York City: 7,781,984. Official 2006 population for New York City: 8,214,426. That’s
a 5.56 percent increase.
2. Of the 3,200,912 housing units in New York City in 2000, 1,051,557 (or about a third) were built since 1960.
So, the population has not “increase significantly” but one-third of the housing has been built in the same 46 year period.
Gee gosh, 10:30, I’ll call the United States Census and see what we can rustle up. Get some perspective. The most recent deccenial census is good enough for a post on a blog. What? You think the city’s population has increased by a half-million people in the past eight years?
At least I used statistics. The Polemic One spouts off without any evidence and you, well, you just stamp your feet and call people names like a seven year old.
hey ignoramus at 5:17.
it’s almost 2008 now. not 2000.
how bout you figure out some more realistic stats.
7 year old data is pretty useless, at best.
