Community Information

Healthcare and education services are relatively ubiquitous in my community, as it’s a relatively urban and somewhat suburban area. Furthermore, while NYC’s MTA is not the most reliable service, it’s fairly good in terms of affordability and especially incredible in working 24/7 in most areas of the city

From my personal experience, having a car is relatively ubiquitous, so our family travels to Long Island for most shopping, as driving in the city is impractical at best. Younger people, among my peers, usually travel into the city for leisure.

Most of the population works either in the vicinity - at restaurants/cafes or in retail, however a good chunk travels into Manhattan/Downtown Brooklyn construction sites and the various navy yards for work - I believe a majority of my neighbors are trade workers.

Since the beginning of the pandemic, I've witnessed numerous decades old small mom 'n pop shops be closed due to a lack of business - I believe this issue can be easily resolved with government funding and maybe encouragement of the local population to frequent nearby stores by discounting goods - which would only be possible with government subsidies.
