New York has done a great job of navigating through the last 200 years and maintaining its relevancy. It has fallen on some hard times in the past, and faced steep competition from growing metropolises both in the USA as well as abroad. It was really declining in the 70's until the early 90's but punched through it and got itself back on its feet. As far as its economic output in comparison with the rest of the state, Upstate NY really hasn't recovered from outsourcing. Rochester, Syracuse, Albany/Schenectady all used to be almost like the Sillicone Valley of 100 years ago. GE, Xerox, Kodak, etc. and more all called Upstate NY home, and much like the rust belt before them really took a huge hit when those companies left. I used to live in Upstate NY, and as much as some places try, they haven't meaningfully found a way to get anything really going. It's sad. And, much like the Jersey Shore, there's towns like Hudson and Kingston that used to have a lot of money because they were the city's upper class getaway towns, but really struggle with decline and declining populations. There's typically a lot of animosity between everything below the Tapanzee Bridge and everything above. It's codified in the fact that the vast majority of Upstate NY is bright red and poor, and the City is bright blue and isn't. It's been that way for most of the 42 years that I've been alive and I don't see it changing anytime soon.

It's interesting to consider how New York's, and the USA's histories would've been different if Governor DeWitt Clinton had not pushed for the Erie Canal. That enabled NYC to access the resource wealth of the country's interior. If the canal hadn't been built, the vast majority of that resource wealth would have gone down the Mississippi, and New Orleans would've been the greatest port in North America. New Orleans did ok, but the Canal transformed NYC into *the* major port for over a century and vastly changed the American economy. Without the canal, the South, and eventually, the Confederacy, would've been different too.

@danielzhang1916 5 месяцев назад

I'm not so sure, there would always be a need for a link from Chicago to NY, the railroads made that inevitable, yes the Mississippi River is very important too, but I don't see how New Orleans would compare, it's always about location location, there's a reason why NYC Boston Philadelphia etc. were able to develop much faster than others

I live in Brooklyn, and it's amazing how much construction I see in every borough. It seems any empty lot is built on quickly, and old, dilapidated buildings are torn down to build new apartment complexes, every chance they can. Lots of the warehouses that are closest to the city, don't even exist anymore, and are either torn down or converted into apartments. And the upgrades they did to La Guardia Airport are phenomenal and is now my goto over JFK. They also offer free bus service from the train to each terminal. One thing NYC doesn't do well is build many new houses, or condos/coops, which makes it very hard to own here. Even some old houses are torn down and replaced with apartment buildings. I guess that's one reason homes prices have gone up so much the past couple of decades

@johncurtis920 5 месяцев назад

A great video, especially for those who may not be overly familiar with the region. Something from which I, as you can tell from my avatar icon, do not suffer. In any case I submit one of the primary reasons for NYC and the metro areas success is the density of built-out infrastructure. From telecom to water, sewer to roads and rails it's got an unrivaled level of complexity that's all its own. And let's not forget that its transit system is instrumental in the city's development and existence. You can think of it as the city's version of the Mississippi river. People, goods and services use it every single day to get about the place. But here's the thing city/national planners need to start seriously contemplating. Since the entire region is only a few tens of feet above current sea level it puts the whole of it in jeopardy if there's any truth to projected sea-level rise due to melting polar caps and the like. You flood the subway/transit system, for instance, and you strangle the city. And if you strangle the region you put a serious dint in the global competitive nature of the country as a whole. Just some thoughts.

I've lived in New York for most of my life, and I'm still not sure what you were referring to when you talk about NY-based manufacturing "producing things to compete in New York". Are we talking about subway equipment or something? Pizzas? Theatrical lighting? Pianos? (Steinway, FWIW, DOES actually compete internationally.) The biggest manufacturing sector that I'm aware of in the greater NYC metro area is the chemical and pharmaceutical manufacturing in New Jersey, which is less expensive than the city proper, and the aerospace industry in Long Island, which I think is mostly defunct these days. I suppose some of the media industry, particularly print media, might be classified as manufacturing, but that might depend on the statistical agency.

NYC also has a hugely productive hinterlands region, with a population density along European lines, fertile productive farm and forestlands, all of it well watered, and with a moderate climate. This has developed a ring of smaller urban centers specializing in the sort of 'break of bulk' and industrial production 'the city' is too expensive for, all of them within the critical 4-8 hour transport time. This gives NYC a 'least cost' advantage over many of its competitors added to its low cost usage of clean, renewable hydro-electric power from NY states access to Niagara Falls and the St. Lawrence River.

Actually, contrary to popular belief, the Dutch stock exchange was not the first globally, just the first in the West. It as already in the Song dynasty China, that people would buy and sell papers representing partial ownership of enterprises. Or at least, so I was told.

As a suggestion, rename the leaderboard to Economic Entity Leaderboard, or EE Leaderboard 😉

There is no need to have a physical exchange anymore. Still didn’t explain why even nowadays why it is still so hard to move out of NYC

I need to do some research but its likely the difference on GDP between NY state and city could be commuters working in NY city and consuming in the wider NY area thus larger imports for the state than the city

Can't wait to see New New New New New New New New New New New York's impact in few thousand years. I mean, not that I will see it but I'll bet it would've been fun.

Idea. Make multiple leaderboards. Country, province/state and city. Then do comparisons between them

@dakshitchhadwa2454 5 месяцев назад

Your content is really insightful. Throughout the video I was thinking about Mumbai (My home) is so relatable to New York City even though I've never been to the States.

Indian or south Asians in general don’t care about outside hygiene due to caste. Vietnam is poor but not filthy like India

EE, I would like to let you know that I've noticed the AI photos. I get it. It's cheaper. But it's also worse. THE TRAGEDY OF THE COMMONS IS NIGH.

Hmm London has been around for over 1000years, and still vies with NY for top position…. Considering its cosmopolitan advantage, I’d say there’s no competition- still.

It’s not London because of the UK’s increasing irrelevance on the world stage. If it wasn’t for the need for tax evasion London would be even more irrelevant.

Why didn’t you talk about any specific local manufacturing in nyc? You brought it up and talked about the local consumption of the goods and economies of scale but didn’t give any specifics on what these local producers are making or how they are being affected by international players :/

The weakness: needing to channel enormous amounts of food and energy into NY area every day. Then channel the trash/sewage out. Either one of those aspects interrupted for a week and its rating means nothing.

At 3:55 New York/New Jersey/Newark are combined but Los Angeles and Long Beach ports are split up. Even though the port of New York Metro area is co-owned while LB/LA ports are separately owned it is not fair to split them up when comparing the two metro areas. Especially since the LA/LB ports share the same bay and County (LA).

It's important to like what you're doing! I'm all for it! I understand that everyone has bills to pay though! A lot of my coworkers don't want to be doing what they're doing and are only doing it for a paycheck which again there's nothing wrong with it, but, then they get stuck in a rut.

Deeply disagree about the premise of 'most important city in human history' There are a ton of cities in the middle east alone that have had a tremendous impact on human history such as baghdad and Damascus, other cities nearby such as samarkand, cairo, alexandria have all had a extended and deep impact, meanwhile, while new york is certainly an important city it is essentially just a newer and bigger London, if New York was never built or if it never took on prominence, there are plenty of east coast cities that could have taken on the mantle of financial hub instead, Philly, Boston, Washington, Baltimore etc. Its certainly one of the most influential cities of recent history, but hardly of human history
