Upstate NY real estate had been declining for years. No one wanted to pay the taxes on houses that were priced more than $350 (10k in taxes) especially In the area we finally left in 2014. And luckily we’re able to sell our home after being on the market for a couple of years.
It was bad upstate for years. Nobody moving in except Muslim refugees and welfare peeps coming up from NYC. And corporations and businesses were leaving in droves. Cities and towns became hovels of welfare recipients. Drugs and crime kept skyrocketing.
NY real estate is going to decline IMO due to illegals, gang members, cartel people etc.

Now it’s NY City’s turn.
Sad. Upstate NY is really beautiful. Knew a family from Wells. The lakes and mountains are awesome. Can’t see a welfare boob shoveling snow though.
Wells is more "northern NY", than "upstate NY". The city people consider all the areas north of NYC, that are commutable to NYC, as "upstate".
Im in that "North of NYC" area and its still pretty, clean air and it doesn't smell like piss & shit infused with gasoline.
