Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens experienced dramatic population declines in 2022 as Manhattan rebounded

New York City is becoming the shriveled Apple.

Three of Gotham’s five boroughs saw some of the largest population declines in America last fiscal year, with only Manhattan bucking the post-COVID trend, according to US Census data released Thursday.

The population of Queens County plummeted by 50,112 residents in the 12 months ending July 1, 2022 — the third largest raw drop of any county in the US, behind only Los Angeles County (90,704) and Chicago’s Cook County (68,314).

Right behind Queens on the list of declines was Kings County (Brooklyn), which lost 46,970 residents over the same period, and Bronx County, where the population dropped by 41,143 residents.

Richmond County — also known as Staten Island — saw its population drop by just 2,351 residents over the same one-year period.

The "missing population" will soon be filled to the overflowing point.
By illegals flooding in.

There should be local laws against that sort of thing. After all,these asshats are the ones that allowed that crap to happen,so they should be forced to live with it instead of being allowed to move to more rural areas and bringing that insanity with them.

AND,make no mistake about it,while the yankee refugees might be friendly and open-minded the first year they infiltrate your cities,by year 2 they are working hard to get laws passed to make it just like it was back where they moved from.

Californication. Same thing.

It's how it works. From time to time, it goes to seed.
