Jackson Heights does not have a "growing" gay population it has an enormous gay population, and has had one since the '70's. I have no knowledge of DarkCore's relationship to Jackson Heights but my great grand parents, grand parents and mother have resided in Jackson Heights since the 30's and I have been a resident of Jackson Heights since 1983. I have added a new line concerning the gay community to the trivia page, which is completely verifiable. Forest Hills/Kew Gardens Median HH Income is $53,704 this not much of a drastic difference and somehow you say that Jackson Heights is mainly lower and middle. OK so next check your demographics before placeing unaccurate information up. Īlso i would like to add that jackson heights does NOT consist mainly of lower class residents since the Median Household Income is $45,889 this maybe be the case for neighborhoods such as corona but it is not the case of Jackson Heights and it most certainly isnt the case of the Jackson Heights Historical District where most of the residents are middle to middle upper class.
This is not true and its completely unverifiable. Also it was mentioned that the Jackson Heights youth go outside to "tag it up" on the streets. also i greatly disagree with who ever wrote the youth section saying that they call the travelers park "da park" and then go to the 7 eleven & the fact that someone wrote that most of the youth here listen to "hip hop " and "reggaeton" and rock is not as accepted or whatever the person who wrote this said. Im sorry that wasent my true intention it was a mistake when i was editing the section i will post it up as soon as i can. Ok, who ever erased most of the information about the Latin American population and KEPT the Asian Amercian and European American information in the beginning, is making him/herself look like a racist. I have removed the line in the trivia page about the gay population of Jackson Heights because it's unverifiable. Since when has Jackson Heights been a gay village? I know they have a growing gay population, but the area certainly does not cater specifically to the gay community. 14 A Commons file used on this page has been nominated for speedy deletion.
