Reply to comment by D14DFF0B in Staten Island (or Richmond County) is the most sleep-deprived place in New York State, with 44% of adults reporting inadequate sleep. It also ranks 15th out the most sleep-deprived counties in the U.S. by AngelaLambert
True, but these people have about 20 other options, while people of SI have no subway connection to other boroughs and only one ferry launch location. On an island.

Reply to As New York Pays Out Millions In Police Misconduct Settlements, Lawmakers Ask Why They Keep Happening by brooklynlad
So hypothetical question, let's say an officer shoots someone and assume they are 100% in the right, if the family brings a wrongful death lawsuit against the city what would it cost to litigate that case to completion?
I say this because settling out of court is super common simply because the cost of litigation is often way more expensive than the actual amount of relief the plaintiff is looking for. To use the case of the 300 in the Bronx, trying hundreds of civil rights cases would cost the city hundreds of thousands if not millions of dollars per case, so it's way cheaper just to pay everyone out $21,500 and move on.

Because the lawmakers tell the police to focus on what churns up the most fine revenue, or else. Then the lawmakers play dumb when a tragedy happens.

> Just say you want the poor to get out of the city to not inconvenience the rich.
The poor don't drive in NYC they take the subway.
> You think that all deliveries in the city are made with trucks
mostly trucks, deliver vans or freight rail which has a last mile deliver via truck/van
>They you can walk in the middle of the street without a care in the world.
Do you realize the subway exists?

As what others have said, go to r/AskNYC (rule 2, questions, suggestions, recommendations go there), and to avoid having your post removed on that sub, two words: be specific. Give an insight on your budget (you did now), time you’ll travel (also did that now), what specifically you’d want to do or interested in for early summer/late spring? Are you open to taking the subway everywhere (or bus), renting a bike, or walking? The more info, the better!
However as the only mod who doesn’t live in NYC, admittedly getting by as a tourist w/ no connections, no experience, and having a second person with you to try and be as frugal as possible isn’t easy, especially since you’re going on vacation again in Europe soon-ish. There’s other accommodations out there for budgeting, or having to trust another person, but be mindful.
Also helps to check out the individual borough subs, unless if you want to keep this strictly have this Manhattan centric: r/Manhattan, r/Brooklyn, r/Queens, r/StatenIsland, r/Bronx. Also check out r/FoodNYC for food recommendations.

Congestion pricing will be a boon for deliveries. Delivery drivers will be able to make more deliveries with less private cars congesting the roadways

>NOTHING in return for the average NY’er.
how about less congestion in Manhattan (and probably Brooklyn, Queens, and The Bronx) and more dedicated funding for the transit system that a majority of New Yorkers use?

This thread will be closed soon, but you should look into the ymca or the HI hostel in the upper west side. Your budget won’t allow for much else.

Right, a few blue haired weirdos screeching isn’t much “consequences” as it is embarrassing for them.
