      It's a stepping stone neighborhood. People who come to New York move there because it was a place they can afford otherwise they eventually leave for somewhere better. Most of the immigrants who were there in the 90s you find them in the suburbs now. Particularly New Jersey and Long Island.

    Whenever I hear Queens I think of this song:
    She was working in a bridal shop in Flushing, Queens,
    Til her boyfriend kicked her out in one of those crushing scenes.
    What was she to do, where was she to go
    She was out on her fanny.
    So over the bridge from Flushing to the Sheffield's door,
    She was there to sell make up but the father saw more,
    She had style, she had flair, she was there,
    That's how she became the Nanny.
    Who would have guessed that the girl we described
    was just exactly what the doctor prescribed?
    Now, the father finds her beguiling, watch out C.C.,
    And the kids are actually smiling, such joie de vivre
    She's the lady in red when everybody else is wearing tan.
    The flashy girl from Flushing, the Nanny named Fran.

    I'm getting a vibe that I feel like I would've gotten over a hundred years ago in NY when it was flooded with Southern and Eastern European immigrants. Now, it's mostly Southern European, Middle Eastern, South Asian, Southeast Asian and Chinese immigrants. To paraphrase a famous saying, the more diverse things become, the more America stays the same. Thank you for showing the tremendous diversity and vitality of Queens and the people that make it that way, and therefore make America the greatest place on Earth. They are our future.

I'm talking about sheer number count of nationalities that reside in a city and Toronto has been #1 for years. The city can be some unknown, tiny town in the middle of nowhere that only has 1000 people - as long as they are all from different countries, it can be the most diverse city in the world.
