[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Boston and western suburbs are where I grew up.  Public schools excellent especially in expensive towns where property taxes are high.  No worries about religious fanatics interfering in schools.  Plenty of activities and family fun.  Ocean, skiing both have an easy drive.

Sadly NYC is not in good shape.  The mayor isn’t doing a good job.  The rat problem is gross.   Until the garbage situation is fixed it’s not going to get any better.  [b]Who thought it would be a good idea putting plastic bags on the sidewalk fully of rotting food overnight until the garbage trucks get there[/b].  Oligarchs, Chinese billionaires and their children are living in the high end buildings.  Without your own billion  it would be hard  to live as well as you’d want to.

That's been the way it's been done in NYC for decades. Not Adams' fault[/quote]

The rat population has dramatically increased in the last few years and they have become bolder and bigger.   The Rat Czar did require businesses to use bins not plastic bags so that will help. But there’s still way too many plastic bags on sidewalks.  They are now required to wait until 9 pm to put them out.   It’s cockroaches too, you see them heading to the bags they are not 9-5 workers.

I don’t think Adams is being aggressive enough.  All plastic garbage bags need to be eliminated and people don’t need a two year notice.
