New York migrant admits feeling guilty over city's benefits: 'We're getting spoiled'
Story by Lindsay Kornick • 3h

Some migrants have mixed feelings over their situation in New York City.

On Monday, the New York Times released a report on some of the 55,000 migrants who are still sheltering in New York City. It focused specifically on people living in hotels, reconverted office buildings and tent dormitories constructed at Floyd Bennett Field.

At the Watson Hotel, one Colombian mother, Ingrid Henao, admitted to feeling guilty for living at the taxpayers’ expense.
 

"We're getting spoiled," Henao said. "This was never my idea. I didn't leave my country under the conditions we fled for this."
