When I visited New York City for the first time in my life two things struck me as odd:
On thing was the number of camera teams in the streets.
I mean not movie production teams necessarily but press primarily. This was after 9/11 and before that I always wondered how it could be that there where multiple cameras pointed at the twin towers in exactly the right moment. After I spent some time in NYC this wasn't weird at all anymore.
The other thing was that strange feeling of familiarity of many streets and places. I blame watching too much Kojak as a kid...

I mean not movie production teams necessarily but press primarily. I grew up in NYC and I can say that filming (professional or not) has increased dramatically. When I was younger, I would routinely see camera crews down the street and get excited about who was there or what they were filming. Now, it happens with such regularity that you just grumble and try to find a way down the side-walk to avoid it.
