Sullivan county was home to the Catskill resorts.
Beautiful lakes, golf and skiing in the winter.
In the 80's they needed gambling to keep viable.
But Cuomo I decided that gambling was evil but abortion on demand was a right. (And mega bucks from AC helped form his views)
So the resorts degraded and closed taking thousands of jobs with them.
So now Cuomo II decides that the Catskills will be viable again.
I predict this resort will be bankrupt in 5 years.
All the resorts have been taking over by Chasidic Jewish illegal day camps.
Which have taken them off the tax rolls.
NY State has an ever increasing tax exempt property problem.
This was the main reason I sold my house in Ramapo NY in 2013 for $429,000.
I was lucky as I could easily leave as my kids were grown and I had a job waiting for me in Texas
Total property taxes back then were just over $13,000/yr.
My old house was just sold again in July of 2017 for $260,000
Yet the property taxes are now over $15,000?

NY is dying.
Even once desirable Long Island has turned into a s--thole.
