Virginia Accents
It’s kind of interesting how local people I have talked into in Maryland and Virginia – especially women – have Southern accents. In West Virginia, at least in the northern part, don’t have much of an accent or if they do its mostly a rural Midwestern accent as is common in much of Rural Upstate NY, especially the western part of the state.
Residential Rental Properties in the City of Albany
Lately there has been a proposal to enact a form of rent stability enhancement known as Good Cause Eviction in the City of Albany. This would ensure renters across the city would be able to maintain their homes, while limiting future rent increases for existing tenants and increasing neighborhood stability. Some neighborhoods in Albany would be greatly benefited by such regulations, although it would come at the cost of higher upfront rents for new tenants and lower profits for landlords with large numbers of long-term tenants.
