Can you really consider places like Harlem, Sugar Hill, Hamilton Heights, Hudson Heights, and San Juan Hill to be part of MFH? These nigger hellholes might as well be part of the bronx or brooklyn.

Yes, they are part of MFH

They are becoming more and more gentrified. Have you been up there lately? All the working class blacks are getting pushed out to the Bronx. Hamilton Heights = white families that bought and restored muti-million-dollar brownstones.

In 10 years = Harlem > Williamsburg, Brooklyn

I know these places are located on the island of manhattan, and that they are becoming gentrified. But I still have a hard time classifying them as being part of MANFUCKINGHATTAN. I mean, basically only hipsters live in places like Harlem or alphabet city.

Absolutely not. I live in Harlem (ON THE PARK) and the people moving in overall are young professionals with dogs that want access to the Park at a reasonable price. South Harlem (SoHa, as I've seen it called), at the very least, will be gentrified very, very soon.

not what the market says. maybe the newcomers are not 'yuppies' in the finance/law sense, but demand for apartments continues for increase, as evidenced by the fact that rents have skyrocketed since 2008 despite new construction. a lot of people in new media and tech have moved in.

Yes but only because many black Mexicans show up as Hispanic. The white + azn populations don't make up over 10%.

Link: http://articles.nydailynews.com/2010-12-26/local/27085558_1_whites-million-dollar-homes-black-harlem-residents

"In 2000, whites made up 2% of the total population. Now they account for nearly 10%."

Azns also make up a negligible amount.

south of 125th street Whites are about 20-30% of the population and climbing rapidly. Asians are about 5%.

three of them are over 20%. and for all of them the population of whites grew between 103%-2,460% from 2000 to 2010. There's no reason to believe that this trend hasn't continued since then, given that rents have kept rising. So the 2010 census is an underestimate of the current white population.

From 2000 to 2010 saw a huge financial services sector boom that brought a huge number of yuppies into MFH. That isn't and hasn't been continuing.

Cool anecdote bro.

"From 2000 to 2010 saw a huge financial services sector boom that brought a huge number of yuppies into MFH. That isn't and hasn't been continuing. "

Irrelevant. Yuppies are less likely than hipsters to move into Harlem anyway, and either way rents have been soaring, indicating that demand for apartments in MFH remains high despite the collapse of the financial industry. it's soaring rents and high demand drive people into Harlem.
