New York City is alright. The culture and that is certainly there for the taking. However, it is rather easy to confine oneself in an outer borough, living a New York experience quite different from the ones in the magazines and films. Living in Brooklyn is completely different from living in Manhattan. There is just less exposure the trendiness and art here.
Honestly, I think people make this place out to be more than it is. There are much more interesting and older, more culturally rich cities around the world.

I've never seen a crime committed in NYC. Ever. And I've lived either within, or a few miles outside of the borders for all but 4 years of my life.androoz wrote:
