They act like the mayor of NYC rules with an iron fist when there’s a whole city council and even borough presidents and shit. I don’t live there and don’t know the local political structure well but I’m pretty sure mayors can’t just make decrees and have them be binding law.

Actual figure is 19%, idk if that’s good or bad, but I doubt they’re leaving cause the spectrum of socialism. I’d guess NYC generally has a pretty high turnover rate over 5 years with young adults planning on leaving for the suburbs when they get married / have kids and older people planning on leaving for Florida / the country when they retire.
