I live in a working class town in north-east England and I went to New York City in 2004 when I was 12. My grandparents took me and it was amazing. I hope I get a chance to go back one day and maybe even live there.

Fun, exciting, culturaly diverse, hipster jiving, madhouse of the utmost praportions. Although living in a big crowded city can also be overwhelming. A big city can be great to visit, but when you actualy live in one for a length of time, wide open spaces can seem very appealing. Like they always so, the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence..

probably the most surprising thing about New York City to people who don't live here is how it is made up of neighborhoods and each one is like a village.
I'm a friendly type, so I know lots of people in my neighborhood and can't walk down my block without running into people I know and saying "hi." I know the proprietors of the shops in the nabe and they know me.
Of course, people can avoid their neighbors, be anonymous and be left alone if that's desired. But there's lots of neighborliness.
And there's a food boutique (it calls itself a supermarket) on the corner. If needed, I can run out, buy an ingredient and be back in my kitchen within 10 mins.
And I can either walk or take a bus or subway nearly everywhere. No need for a car. And within a few minutes walk, there's the river to walk along or Central Park which is gorgeous every season of the year.
And there are Museums and theatre...any kind of cultural event you would want.
I love Manhattan.
