My username says it all! In Queens, we have tolerance. You can be left wing MO or Chassidish, and everyone is accepted by everyone else, people are friends with one another. On Shabbos everyone says Good Shabbos (or increasingly, Shabbat Shalom). Our yeshivas are just a drop more expensive then Brooklyn. We have Aron’s (best prices), Seasons (spun off from Pomegrante) and many other stores. Yeah, Brooklyn has more clothing stores. And we have an Eruv that is vigilantly maintained and at least in FH, and KGH, were established under the auspices of Rav Moshe. In KGH we have over 45 shuls. Because our Eruv is accepted by all, women get out on Shabbos, so there isn’t as much of a market for Shabbos robes. We have Yeshiva Gedolahs Ohr Chaim, Yeshiva Chofetz Chaim, and several smaller ones. We do kiruv and make people feel welcome.
