Talk:Queens Village, Queens

message: Someone really ought to as the article - it is a little misleading and could really use some help, but I don't want to change anything myself. Hopefully someone sees this and can use the information. 
I don't know why shopping districts are the first thing addressed in the article. There is plenty of shopping available in the neighborhood on other streets, and otherwise this is just a list of main roads in the area (lacking Hempstead Avenue and some others, but none of this seems particularly encylclopedic. As a resident here I would think the proximity to Belmont would be more notable than the 'shopping' streets (no real notable stores, just typical shops you'd expect to see in Queens).
Transportation section is pretty good, the LIRR is really on the southwest corner of Springfield & Jamaica, 'Amboy Lane' is just its little service road. If someone were giving directions, nobody would know what Amboy Lane was but anyone would know the intersection of Springfield & Jamaica. Additionally I believe the seasonal LIRR station at Belmont Park may be on the Queens side of the border and so in Queens Village, but I am not sure. 
The ethnicity section leaves a bit to be desired. I suppose the 'white flight' link is appropriate as the neighborhood has significantly diversified since the second world war, but the repeated use of the word 'recent' is misleading. There hasn't really been a 'recent influx of African Americans' or middle eastern jews or asians - there are plenty of people from across the globe in this neighborhood, but this did not occur 'recently' so much as 'consistently for the past many decades'. If anything I suppose the original author may have been talking about the southern part of Queens Village becoming predominantly black, but the majority of the people here are from the West Indies. In my experience they're mostly from Haiti, Trinidad & Tobago, Jamaica and the Dominican Republic, so I don't see how 'African' is appropriate. Some census data would probably really help here, because my word is just as good as whatever jerk wrote this stuff in the first place.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.65.245.216 (talk) 04:09, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

message: There are too many references to real estate and prices it reads like an advertisement.  Things are supposed to be encyclopedic I can understand a single reference if warranted but this is too much.  This article is in need of serious work IMHO.   33L71488 (talk) 18:04, 25 May 2016 (UTC)

message: In every source, I've found, Hollis Hills is listed as separate from Queens Village. For example, NYC list of districts shows Hollis Hills as its own neighborhood, unlike Bellaire. Perhaps it should be removed from this article and have its own instead.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bubb1byb (talk • contribs) 16:26, 21 April 2019 (UTC)
