First sentence: I lived in the New York City area from 1993 to 1995, dividing my time between three communities: Parkside, a wealthy, mainly white, upper east side neighborhood in Manhattan; Kelley, a white working-class community in Queens; and Queenston, a mixed, somewhat lower-working-class community also in Queens.
