Gentrification in Jamaica, Queens

[InfinateOpulance]

Where in Africa and Jamaica are blacks being pushed out

Chinese folks are in Africa are they not?? They are also selling plastic rice to Jamaicans on the island. They have plans for these places.

Nevermind.. I thought we were talking about actual Jamaica

Im coming NY next year, don’t make me pay 500 to come only for it to be gentrified and cacified

Theres no venue near Jamaica for me to see it worth investing in

The reason the property values blew up is because of Barclay Center. I just don't see Jamaica getting gentrified like that. Its not that close to Manhattan either. I don't see the value.

Barclay center is no where near Jamaica
You have no idea what you are talking about.

The reason why real estate is a mess is because all the new money foreigners are buying up/renting property. So it pushes everyone else out further and further. There are sections of Jamaica that are beautiful as hell.

Eh, you maybe overestimating the situation OP. And about the St. John’s area, the average home in the area is around 2.3 million dollars. We weren’t living there anyway.

SE Queens is still black
Y’all need worry about those Guyanese and Indians more than whites tbh

No you don't because they're intention is paper. Whitey comes to make rent high, change area names, open stores to accommodate their own, force hood staples out of business...no comparison

St. John's area always been asian and jewish. Where you get Arabs from?

Queens also showed why that election in Atlanta was important.

A Starbucks is the first horsemen of the gentrification apocalypse

Dog you don't get it..The "sexy" spots have been accounted for 10 years ago...They want EVERYTHING WITHIN CITY LIMITS at this point . The NY Times are putting out lists of places within the city that are still "hidden gems" Rockaways, East Harlem, The Bronx,Flatbush etc buudonheermedoe

Own your homes brehs

this will keep happening until more people learn to prioritize owning where you live instead of renting and don’t sellout.
