Local people have voiced annoyance at the drop in public safety and charged Ocasio-Cortez of ignoring her voters in favor of a national political profile.
She isn’t performing sh*t. Guadelupe Alvarez, a lifetime Elmhurst resident living in the 110th Precinct, said, “She doesn’t live in the neighborhood, she doesn’t care.”
Former Ocasio-Cortez supporter Alvarez claimed to have seen her neighborhood fall apart noting gang activity, car theft, assaults, and the presence of a brothel straight across from her childhood house.
Alvarez said she was brushed aside when she tried to bring up her issues straight with the congresswoman during a Bronx town hall last year.
