Corruption and ultra high salaries of government officials and police drain the life out of these cities. This is a story playing out in small piggy-banks, ahem, cities all across the nation. I lived in a particularly egregious one called Yonkers, NY for a while. This place is the only city in NY (other than NYC) that goes after your income too in addition to ridiculously high prop taxes.
