Capital District NY Urban Communities
Capital Area Urban League
Danger: REPORT Sept. 3, 2021
transportation housing voting rights crime education
Community Needs and Concerns
The community is middle class or poor, disinvested & redlined, which leads to both low home ownership rates, as well as low home values. This (-) impacts wealth creation & hampers the transfer of generational wealth.The community is also over policed, as police don’t solve crimes, they respond to them (detectives solve crimes), so flooding the community with boots on the ground does little long-term good when people are likely to be arrested, convicted & incarcerated (hurts families).The community needs equitable redistribution of their tax payments to government, so, when communities ask for government support, that is not a handout from government. It's a ROI of taxes paid.

Normanskill
Danger: REPORT Aug. 1, 2021
parks internet elderly unions government workers
Community Activities and Services
My community is made of families that gather around the park surrounding the New York State Correctional Services Training Academy
Economic or Environmental Interests
A large percentage of my neighborhood seems to be comprised of folks at or near retirement age, and the majority of workers are employed by NYS agencies.
Community Needs and Concerns
We could use greater competition in telecommunications, as it currently is restricted to Spectrum-only internet which drives up our prices. Literally two blocks away the residents are able to choose between Verizon and Spectrum, and it has lowered their prices while increasing their speeds and reliablility.A community gym, or the ability to use the nearby Training academy gym in the off-hours would be very appreciated, and would help to increase the overall health of our community.We could also use more local events, rather than needing to find our own transportation to downtown Albany for the majority of events.Lastly, implementing sidewalks in our neighborhood would be wonderful.
