This Wiki will be focused on the drastic economic and cultural gap between the bordering cities of Garden City and Hempstead NY. I will not just be focusing on the topic of drastic economical difference but also that of race and diversity.

My Primary research will consist of interviewing the public and public figures in the area.

- I will focus on making comparisons between the minorities in both Garden City and in Hempstead. See how they differ and how they feel about the inconsistencies between the two cities. - I will communicate with the Mayors offices to see if I can get some political insite on the issue and see what is being done about it.
