This Should Be A Crime…

This Should Be A Crime.
What is the Area Median Income? Too low! Gotta jack it up by 30%!
So if 100% of AMI means 50% of people can afford the rent, 130% means around 80% of NYC residents cannot pay these rents.
Still more unaffordable housing for NYC. How many apts with rents lower than this were razed to build this?
