Generation after generation of people have lived in the same locality for about as long as we've had agriculture so I'd say it is pretty sustainable. I think it's odd that a jet-setting tourist should be lecturing the locals about their "extreme privilege."

Did you just call people who take the $14 bus ride from New Paltz to NYC "jet-setting tourists"?

Being born in NYC doesn't mean the city belongs to you. I'm a New Yorker too.

In the sense that New Paltz is in New York State, sure, you are a New Yorker if you live in New Paltz. But you're not a resident of New York City, not because of where you were born but because you do not reside there.
