NYC is the worlds favourite city. It routs San Fran.
The only city in the U.S. that NYC may occasionally compare itself to is LA, and really only in certain aspects. SF, while a great town, never, ever enters the conversation as a peer city of NYC, simply because it isn't.

Completely false n fabricated. There are a handful of cities that can compare in different ways to NYC. San Francisco is one, LA of course and Chicago. Then there are 20 or more outside the US.

Depends on what the basis of comparison is. Again, if you're talking about overall clout and influence, then it's going to NYC and then possibly London, Paris, Tokyo, HK, and possibly a few others depending on how strongly factor one thing or another (such as strongly weighting being the seat of political power in which case Beijing, Moscow, and possibly DC). Aside from those, other cities are going to compare favorably in some sector or another, but not so well overall.

No. There is no comparison to NYC in the United States. None. Size matters.

This. There are only a handful of cities that really compete with NYC (London, Paris, Tokyo and possibly HK), with London being the only true case as being superior on a majority of metrics.

Yep, agree in general, there's more than that too.
