I live in a city, you can have all of those things here. In fact, we have an entire stretch down the side of a river that has restaurants and other things down the side of it. The housing in that area is some of the most expensive but still doesn't touch NYC.

Another way of thinking about this is that NYC might have more of those things and then some. Does your city have a dozen museums, dozens of museums, or hundreds of museums? Does your city have a 24/365 public transit system? Bodega cats? Offices of all of the top companies worldwide? Something equivalent to the high line? Broadway? If not, why not? Some places have some of these things. How many places have all of them?
- PH95VuimJjqBqy 3y agoI make more than the average NYC person and pay far far less than them to live. apply whatever the hell you want to rationalize that existence, I don't personally care. When you're done screaming about how terrible it is that you'll never own a home, come join sanity. or don't. I don't give a shit about your rationalization.
