In order to get an idea of new york's changing demographics, this map shows the most spoken languages by district except english and spanish.
it all checks out for me save for staten island (thought italian would still be a strong #3, at least where the russians are supposed to be), central park east/west (french? wtf) and the south bklyn area
Nice map, LK. But if you think seeing it on a map is shocking, just imagine if you've lived in this city for more than fifty years and you're here to watch it with your own eyes.
re Manhattan: If the borough is liberal enough for the French to live there, that should tell you all you need to know about the average resident. Moneyed, ultra-liberal, and completely out of touch with the rest of the world.
And the Bangladeshis are
everywhere. It's honestly shocking how fast they've grown as a demographic, both in the outer boroughs and in the cheaper suburbs.
