Imagine you are moving to New York or thinking of starting a business there. You want to pick the best location, right? How could you figure out the best area for you in a city, even if you’ve never been to it? You have to ask yourself “What am I looking for?” Do you want to move to the rich part of town or something more affordable? Do you want to open your business where people spend a lot on food? And, if so, how do you find those areas?
This book looks at Zip Codes within the New York metropolitan area and compares them to the metropolitan area as a whole. It points out all of the major differences between the two, for every Zip Code! You’ll see Zip Codes where the incomes are higher or lower than the city's average. You might see Zip Codes that have higher concentrations of certain ethnic groups. You might even see Zip Codes that spend more on tobacco than others, or give more to charity.
This book does NOT have descriptions of each Zip Code. We look at the numbers and tell you when there are differences between the Zip Code and the metropolitan area as a whole. However, this book can easily tell you where you should go -- "Birds of a feather flock together" and this book shows you where the different flocks are located!
