As previously wrote ForumDaily New York:
- Despite the country's continued economic expansion, New York is actually losing its population. So, the total population of the state as of mid-2019 was 19 people - this is 453 people, or 561%, less compared to the previous year.
- It is believed that the number of immigrants in the country affects the level of crime in it. However, recent studies have shown that the relationship between immigration and crime in the United States is missing. Moreover, in areas where migrants live, the crime rate is lower.
