Biggest city in the United States by population, used to be the capital of the state and country, world famous, city that never sleeps, etc.

I'm really curious what its like. Does it ever get boring... or is there always something to see or do? Does it have balanced diversity? Are there negatives or just positives?

well one negative is the subway on weekends.

But its a very live city with all type of stuff to do with a wide variety of all.

The only thing nyc lacks to me is good beaches.

As for diversity? nyc is the most diverse place in this country. I love it.

You are never bored in nyc, so many things to do/see.
It is the most diviserse city in America.
Of course there are negatives and postitives, like there is every other place. It depends on who you ask, but for me the positives outweigh the negatives.
New York City is, in a nutshell, an amazing and exciting place to be.

The most beautiful city in the world.
Don't take our word for it. You need to experience it for your self.

I am 100% serious.

I would take any 1 single year from the 1990s over the entire past decade.

1990s > 2000s

New York City, is New York City. I mean its tough to make it out here. It's harder if your from the hood out here. I mean i love it. I enjoy working in mid-town manhattan, thats what living is. Then i dislike goin back home to reality back in Clinton Hill in brooklyn. So NY has its ups and downs. I can say NY nevers get old. always somthing to do.
