NYC looting alarming preview study reports widespread poverty
A July 13 looting surge across New York City is described as a preview of deepening urban poverty. The report by Curvin and Porter notes heavy hits in Harlem, Bedford Stuyvesant, and the South Bronx, with unexpected damage across many nontraditional ghetto areas including the Upper West Side. It links looting to economic hardship and rising minority populations in transitional neighborhoods, highlighting food and clothing stores and the role of welfare-affected areas in the pattern.
