A lot of hilarious claims from both sides in this debate. I'm from the Bay Area but will contend NYC offers more, though of course there are things in the Bay which have NY beat. It all comes down to preference, but there's nowhere else on this continent with as much variety as New York.

I'm still laughing at that suburban line though. Brooklyn? Lol

If suburbia looks like this, I wouldn't mind living in one!

You can always tell when someone actually stepped foot in Brooklyn.

(Oh and while we're here, those piers in the first pic are apart of Brooklyn Bridge Park which is currently going through a complete overhaul. So nothing but 'Green' in Spring. The first pier will be complete in the next month are so actually. http://www.brooklynbridgepark.org)

You would be fortunate to live in either one.

That's the bottom line.

NYC. No contest. The Rome of our era, the Elizabethan England, the Constantinople. NYC is peerless in the US.

Oh, but please don't squash our little North Californian's dreams of grandeur. "We have good food and a long pretty bridge. We have some computers too! We're great!"

OK fanboi. But even you aren't going to try comparing SF to NYC are you? Start with Philadelphia or Boston, better equivalents.
