Jobs recovery is outpacing the rest of the country here, but unfortunately much of that growth is in lower paying jobs. It’s been that way for a while now.
The only people wanting the border of Crown Heights moved to Franklin are the people too ashamed to tell people where they live and the brokers at Corcoran trying to sell million dollar homes in the “ghetto”.
“Brooklyn is filled with rats – four-legged, two-legged,” one 63-year-old neighbor said. “They’re everywhere.”
My laugh of the morning.
Someone posted the squirrel link yesterday in the OT. I think it would have been very interesting to watch…certainly educational for children. It didn’t look like they left much of a mess!!!
