"as bad as Washington Heights in the '80s"

From someone who grew up in Washington Heights in the 80's, specifically 171 street home of the Lenny Boys dubbed the Wild Cowboys by the cops and media, I can attest that Washington Heights in the 80s was NUTS and I don't think there will ever be another Washington Heights.

There were so many murders in the 34th precinct that they had to split the precinct up and create the 33rd just to even out a little. The crazy thing about was that believe it or not as unsafe as the numbers would indicate. Most of these murders were drug related so if you weren't selling drugs you really didn't have much to worry about.

Washington Heights was special because of its strategic location right by the George Washington Bridge. That meant affluent suburban New Jersey residents could come cop their drugs and be back on the bridge on their way home in minutes. So the drug dealers there never had to prey on the local residents, in fact drug use among the actual residents was low.

Washington Heights never saw the devastation that many other neighborhoods saw, it just reaped the benefits of the money coming in from a much more opulent community. It's hard to understand but imagine profiting from something without actually seeing or experiencing the devastation that it's causing.

Bottom line, Washington Heights was crazy and in my opinion there will never be another Washington Heights, at least in NYC.

Well, I mean you've got soldiers coming back from Afghanistan after they've been exposed to the heroin from the poppy growing over there. Inevitably they get some of their friends into it, and then use spreads and you end up with increased violence for turf and from users committing robberies for extra money. Plus Long Islanders are apparently freaking out because their heroin use rates are going up, and the whole drug cartel wars down in Mexico is all about security smuggling routes in order to import cocaine and heroine from South America into the United States.
