Big Irish population in Woodhaven and Woodside Queens. Many Irish immigrants in that neighborhood. You'll feel right at home.

There are five buroughs in NYC, Manhattan, The Bronx, Queens, Brooklyn and Staten Island.
If you really want to experience NYC you got to live in Manhattan it is much more expensive but you will experience the city the way that one should. That is where all the Broadway shows are, Sporting Events, most concerts and the best restaurants. Central Park is one of the greatest parks in the world.
You will want to visit the famous McSorleys pub.

Living in Brooklyn or anywhere else is nice too, but the commute will not give you the same experience that you get living in Manhattan, which Manhattan is what people associate with when talking about NYC.
If you have to live in Brooklyn then Park Slope or under the Brooklyn Bridge are your best bets. Prospect park in Brooklyn is nice too, but it is no Central Park.

You will feel right at home, NYC is full of Irishmen, specially police and firemen.
As for settling, nothing before you get employment as commuting can be a problem in some instances.
Have fun and enjoy yourself. NYC is a great city

Well in NYC it's all about money, so the more you have the better off you are. Make sure you have job and find a place in one of the boroughs to live; Manhattan is very expensive, so you may want to look in Brooklyn, Queens, or the Bronx (Staten Island is a pain to commute from).

Your in simple terms reasonable risk presently may be as a pupil at a school or college. the probabilities of having an employment visa while the unemployment fee is drawing near 10% are slender to declare the least.

regardless of where you live, it will be expensive. It's always best if you know someone who lives here. you might want to go on craigs list and do a search/post an ad. or if you can afford to, visit for a few days and get a feel for the place.

Expect culture shock to the extreme. Write a book about it. I bet it would be a best seller!
