Review of Troy, New York


Do NOT Invest in Troy New York
Star Rating - 12/18/2019
My great grandparents came from Germany to settle in Troy, NY in 1885.
Troy in the early days beyond the corruption of politics was a safe place to live.
The current climate is ridden with domestic violence. Most recent:
3 charged with murder of 19 year old girl. Gun violence.
Mother sentenced for killing 21 month old son.
Troy man bear his girlfriends 3 year old son to death while babysitting.
Husband shot and killed his estranged wife.
Quadruple murder-Family killed over Xmas
The list is endless and horrific.
Homes have declined because landlords are out of state renting to low-income families. The neglect of DSS and Housing do not take the time to investigate family composition makes the city additionally unstable. Did I mention the drug houses?
All 350 or more with the Red X are used by homeless or drug dealers.
Should I go on?
This City should not be rated as one of the BEST places to LIVE.
The TAXES are one of the highest in New York State. We have a garbage tax to cover the past financial inaccuracies of city officials.
