You know the salsa commercial where the cowboy looks into the camera and exclaims in horror, NEW YORK CITY!? Whether you or don't, the point is that the cowboy is correct in his astonishment, who would ever really want to live in this city? The housing is overpriced, the food though yummy is overpriced, and every other possible thing that one might need to live is jacked up to the point where it might as well be lined with gold and sold in the suburbs. But then again, where else is there to live? Where else do people live? Yes, I've lived elsewhere but who would ever want to given the choice. Unless you were to live in some foreign and fabulous culture with an equal degree of diversity, culture and glitz (such as Paris, Rome or a bunch of others I've never been to) why would one ever want to live outside the 5 great boroughs? As smelly, stinky and rude as it is, it's NYC. Open mostly about 20 hours of the day, complete with unreliable and again overpriced public transportation with a complimentary dose of stress and anxiety. What's my point? If you don't live in NYC then I don't have one. If you do, well then you're not the ones asking...
