Yeah, this article reminds me of the very worn out “is New York worth it anymore?” trope the New York Times publishes yearly. Or the ones they run profiling a young professional couple that has lived in the city for 5 years and is moving somewhere cheaper.

It’s the reason I fell in love with the city as a kid in the first place.
