    Ahhhh gotcha. I didn’t mean for it to come off that way, Big Problems like housing, waste mgmt, water, etc are all very complex and multifaceted issues that are arguably primarily due to greed, and unnecessary/inefficient expansion of our race (cause is my opinion, not fact but claim is objective)

      Much of the problems are always present. It make no difference that an apartment is occupied for a short term rent or a long term. As long as it is occupied you have mgmt problems.

      Greed and bad planning are other things, but they are different from place to place, so I cannot say anything about them regarding NYC

        Oh yeah, I think we can agree that mgmt is definitely one of the key issues as well as any number of issues that are compounded by other Big Problems like waste management and thus pests.
