    I love New York. We have so many different cultures mixed in . If you go anywhere and just listen closely someone might be talking in French, Spanish, German, Russian, etc. and idk how people say new york's crowded, like this is New York. We all feel like family in this huge giant city that we love. I don't even notice Times Square either . So much of this is relatable. And yes, yes we do have the freedom to do things. We have so many parks. Like there's one on every block or something . We ride our bikes, we can skate board, we can walk, we can go play foot ball or soccer, were normal and happy for living here. And were proud of it.

      I moved to central florida from NY 8 years ago. What I miss most about New York is the variety of transportations, being able to walk to places (you have to drive everywhere here, such a waste of gas), and for the love of God, they need more corner stores and street side carts. And specifically where I live, we have no sidewalks...so annoying.

    It seems like only people who have never lived in NYC have a negative opinion about NYC. But if you talk to anyone who lives there or has lived there, they all loved/love it...including myself. It may be crowded but there is so much variety and culture and so many different experiences and fascinating people. You never get bored!

    I'm from the city and this is kinda accurate. Except I don't know how you have time to do so much. I go to school in the middle of times square and it seems like time goes faster than when I visit anywhere else. I visited Connecticut once and I was like woah. What a long day. I did so much

    You forgot a few:
    Crossing the street at times square when the light is green.
    Parking in an unbelievably small space.
    Observing the seat sharks in the subway at Roosevelt, Times Square,etc.
    Thinking you will get to work on time/going home from work, then you hear "this train is making all local stops" .
    Seeing a guy spill his coffee on the subway.
    Watching as the construction workers & police take all the snacks in the corner store, with no remorse.
    Seeing your local fire house at the supermarket.
    Seeing the guy who jumps the turnstile and gets caught by the cop in the shadows to the left.
    That guy who has to swipe his metro card three times.
    That moment when you realize it takes longer to drive home from work than it takes to drive to Scranton, PA. (this one might just be me)
    Having a hot dog at Grays Papaya.

    New York is the worst possibile place anybody could choose to live. Too overpopulated, too small. Is the worst possible place to be when their is a pandemic or some kind of attack, and is the worst place to live if you plan on staying healthy.
    Also I'm 100% sure it has a shit ton of crime. TV makes this place look so nice when it really isn't.
    Though regardless I really want to go to it because just for bragging rights.

      All the boroughs like Bronx, Brooklyn, queens, are all in the state of New York and the city of New York City but (for some reason) Manhattan is New York City (I think) because it's always written as NY, NY while the others are like Bronx, Ny etc. And for example, Albany is in the state of New York and a city in New York. I live in the Bronx btw so I live in New York city

    It severely depresses me the horrible comments that are being made lol I grew up in manhattan, and seeing the struggles of my parents to keep up with the city didn't make me want to cry in a corner and wish to leave New York. New York is my home, my loud and disgustingly smelly oasis. I find that when I do leave New York, I can't sleep through silence. I might have fights with New York, but we always work out he differences and hail a cab. Sure, a beer or a margarita might be overpriced on Tuesdays, or that cab you took is mildly expensive and smells like old falafels, but it's New York. It isn't suppose to be perfect, and if it was it wouldn't be New York. Although i do agree, the rent is expensive, but you don't look in the right places either ;)

      - insanely expense stuff is norm
      - people wear earbuds everywhere
      - people can be wearing only their underwear and it's normal
      - trying to sleep in completely quiet places is nearly impossible (the silence scares you)
      - angry if 24/7 pharmacy is not open
      - going to the deli in pj's
      - conversation about anything are started about the weather
      - umbrella disappear faster then toilet paper
      - forget names in less then 3 seconds

And when you travel to a quiet state, it's so weird and hard to sleep because theres jist no noise.And not taking the subway or not eating your *LAST-MINUTE-HAM , EGG , AND CHEESE-OR-DUNKIN DOUGHNUTS-BREAKFAST* but you're in vacation or just visiting.

    Umm... I was born and raised NYC, and yeah late night on subways you see super weird things and suggest to stay inside because people get reckless. Times Square is for tourists just like Yankee Stadium, and the met-life, because most people go there if they're tourists. And Manhattan is like hell, people need to learn to keep going or step to the side, like if you're standing in the middle of the street don't get pissed if you get pushed. Most chill parts of Manhattan is far away from tourist attractions.

    I love how in NYC no one really cares about your business on the street. If you wear something outrageous, chances are that they've seen that already a few blocks back. I guess it also provides an incentive to try to stand out, hence why NYC is overflowing of amazing wonders that you cannot find anywhere else.

    You always have an opinion on politics in the city
    You don't know what claustrophobia means
    Walking and running are the same thing to you
    Foreigners often call you a rude person because you swear a lot
    You can't live anywhere else

    I wouldn't last long in NYC. Too many people. Too many cars. Not enough mountains, trees, and wildlife (no - squirrels, pigeons, rats, and cockroaches do not count; nor does anything that is in a zoo). Strangers are not friendly. It never gets quiet or fully dark. Not enough solitude. Little to do that interests me. I would be bored and miserable. I'm glad it appeals to others though. To each their own.

      Yes, I have been there, several times. Now that I've seen the usual sights, there's nothing left of interest to me. I don't go for the things you see in a large city. There are only so many movies to see. I'm an outdoors person. I don't sit around the house, or go to clubs or bars. I hike, backpack, hunt, fish, ride dirt bikes, fly and drive RC, and generally amuse myself in the woods and fields. None of those can be done in NY without significant restriction that chafes against my sensibilities. So yes, I would get bored in NYC. Do you have any suggestions for the next time I am in town?

    I want to move to NYC because my life is so boring, but I feel like if I did I'd get bored of it very easily and it would be so difficult to move there. Apartments are so expensive and the bad thing is you have to wait and such to get approved for those types of things and if you're just moving there you don't have time to wait you need to be in something asap.
    I just feel like I'll never move there because it's nearly impossible without knowing someone there, which I don't.

      you do not have to know someone there. however the rent is not cheap. staten island is the cheapest to rent from if you have a car. I am a native new Yorker for 47 years. learn the bus routes. do not rent anywhere around downtown Brooklyn. the hipster dueche made the rent 1 and half times what it is worth, if you do not believe me make a rental contract with the local mouse, rat, and roach pets that you will encounter. good luck.

    For those that say New York is possibly the worst possible place to live, there is more than just "The City" you also have (in order of pretty cool to live in to ugh ew) Brooklyn, Queens, Manhattan, Long Island, Staten Island, Bronx. I've lived in Queens on and off half my life. I have a car, a house, a backyard etc...I moved every chance I got but always somehow ended up back here. It is very expensive to live in though. It's so congested with way too many people and too many buildings stuck together. I don't want to hear what the person 7 floors above me is doing/saying. God forbid there;s a fire. One bedroom apt is like 1500+ imagine the kind of place you can get out of the state with that money? A loft with 3 floors and 3 bedrooms. However... I must say.. There definitely is no place like NY. I drove my mom to NY two days ago and while walking to the local bodega (lol...) she said there is no place like New York. There is so much diversity and different cultures. What I love most? The food. West Indian food, Belgian food, Italian, Korean... everything in one place.

    I guess this is accurate if you want to see the experience of somebody who moved here from some other state like 5 years ago... but as usual buzz feed fails to cover anything that isn't from the perspective of a 21 year old who thinks that they are now superior to the people they left behind in their dead suburban hometowns because they live in the city and go to hip bars, rather than focussing on the people who have generations of family history throughout the 5 boroughs. I don't think the producers of these videos attempt to reach outside of anything that isn't relevant to their age range (early 20s), because it's almost cringeworthy as a native new yorker to watch videos like these that give viewers a completely inaccurate picture of the typical new yorkers experience. As a 4th generation Brooklynite and I can assure you that this is the point of view this video portrays is the most diluted and unauthentic one I have seen.
