TL;DR Summary

Migrants at the makeshift tent city at Floyd Bennett Field in New York City are warning others to stay away, claiming it is not suitable for children and lacks basic amenities. One Venezuelan family refused to be bused to the facility after being told by another asylum seeker about the conditions there. The family claims that workers at the intake center said they would be on their own if they didn't accept the offer to stay at Floyd Bennett. The site, designed to accommodate 2,000 migrants, has faced controversy since its opening. Over 65,600 migrants are still in the city's care.
