One thing about NYC doesn’t adjust your lifestyle it is you adjusting to NYC!! NYC isn’t cute vibe , it’s a hustle and grinding your way until you’re ready to move on.

I live in NYC, agree with your points, and am so tired with the obsession over it. It's an iconic city but it's not the only one like that, Chicago is very similar and actually much cheaper. Not sure what happened but many people don't even think about moving there now, it's all about NYC or LA. Due to the high cost, NYC ends up attracting a disproportionate amount of young people with well off parents or who went to top schools, which really distorts the social life and personalities we encounter. They can afford the high prices on everything, for social life, and to keep on top of every new trend. There are many generational ethnic enclave people too but they have their own bubbles separate from single people that move to the city. It may get worse due to retro trends, with NYC being seen as the center of coolness in the early 2000s, which led to a large influx of people making the rent skyrocket even faster, which has been an issue for awhile now but especially bad recently.

We visited for the first time in June and I loved it. Everyone was very kind. They could tell we were from CA so we kept hearing about “Cali” 😂 as they call it. We were offered drugs on Wall Street, we solicited for money on the subway in the most dramatic theatrical way, and the city did stink…not to mention spiderman on Times Square was incredibly rude compared to our spiderman on Hollywood Blvd, but I enjoyed visiting. Don’t think I’d want to live there. 2 days was enough. I could see myself living in Brooklyn for a little bit though. Brooklyn was nice. But then again, we were only there a couple days.

I'm Born and raised in NYC; Brooklyn & Queens, I have left NYC so many times and always came back during 1982 to 1991; because I love NYC, it will always be my home, I lived in other Cities in the USA and Abroad and I will say... Only the Strong Survives here in the Big Apple. No matter how much the City News love to advertise only the bad things in NYC, and never focus on good things I call it False Advertisement, but if you are not from NYC or born here, you will never see the good inside of the Bad Apple You go to move into any City[ give or take a few weeks or few months you will hear about or see it on your City News that City you just move to is no difference from NYC, you have a City filled with bad things probably worse...then you would wished that you never left NYC.

NYC is not that dirty. I've been to plenty of cities in America and overseas which are far more dirty. NYC is only expensive because of rent and home prices. Besides that, it's fairly affordable. NYC has the largest Metro transit system in the world that runs 24 hrs. NYC Subway is also well designed. Yes Seoul transit is nice and clean, but the design to get from point A to B is freaking time consuming.

Hi, native New York here. Born and raised. I left when I was 18 because, among other reasons, I hated it there and I’ve never moved back. I never will. Perhaps you’ve heard this little adage: The second hardest thing in the world to do is to convince a New Yorker to leave New York City. The hardest thing in the world to do is to convince him to move back.

I do watch videos about New York City from time to time, particularly those posted by Cash Jordan and it seems like New York City is returning to the cesspool it was when I grew up in the 1970s and the 1980s. If you want my advice young lady, get out while you are young and beautiful. New York City will make you hard and grizzled.

@@1525boy I don’t mean to argue with you, but I am curious. Did you experience New York City in the 1970s and the 1980s? I watch videos about New York City nowadays and I am hearing RU-vidrs make remarks like “the subways just aren’t safe anymore“. Back in the 1970s and the 1980s, it was well known that the subways were a mugger’s paradise. You didn’t dare ride the subways alone at night, and if you did, you were taking your life in your own hands. The subways of the 1970s in the 1980s gave rise to the Guardian Angels, a group of volunteer vigilantes with martial arts training that would patrol the subways after dark to protect riders from the very well known threat of violent attacks by muggers and thieves. And it wasn’t just the subways. In 1974, at the tender age of eight, I was mugged for the first time in my own neighborhood in broad daylight on a Sunday afternoon. And that was just the first of several such incidents, the last of which entailed me being mugged at knife point in broad daylight at the age of 17 in 1983, again in my own neighborhood. So I’m curious, if you experienced New York City back in the 1970s and the 1980s and if you still reside there today, that would give a lot of credibility to your opinion that things are worse now. But if you are much younger than me and if you have only experienced New York City over the past 20 years, I think you lack the basis for making a reliable comparison/assessment. I would suggest that you go to your Google search engine and type in the following search: “in terms of crime, is New York City worse now than it was in the 1970s and the 1980s?” When you’ve done that, you will have an objective answer that resolves this dispute once and for all.

I agree with pretty much everything in this video, but I think comments about the MTA are harsh. It's true that other international cities have much better mass transit, but at least as far as London and Paris are concerned, they aren't 24 hours. It's true that the subway is dirty and stinks (and the stations are stifling in the summer), but it does the job. The other thing I disagree with is that New Yorkers aren't helpful. They actually are very helpful. And they're not mean -- they're busy and in a hurry. The city IS expensive, loud, and smelly, but it also offers things that almost no other city can compete with.
