This isnt true because the jobs in nyc are pretty good if you ask me. I'm living great and i'm not even rich. The only people who are suffering in nyc are the natives leaving in areas going through gentrification. Not half of the new yorkers

Get over it! NYC is no longer the center of the World... it's just another rusty city!
this is a nyc vs London thread. Not nyc vs un diversified Asian city thread. so you need to get over your love of nyc.

This is kind of true because my professor told me that when 9/11 happened it effected the whole country.

This is when nyc bashing gets bad. When people lie about cities they never been to or barely know. The fact of the matter is most people in nyc are not living in poverty. smh

New York. I don't want to cut down London, but New York is superior in my opinion in every way. Also, I don't want to live in a place where people look down on me. English people think they are better than American people, even though I disagree.

if the metro area which includes cities/regions of what, 2 other states produces that output.. how exactly is that something worth bragging about when you're comparing 1 city to another city. new york city is 1 city in 1 state. use the data of that city to brag about "largest economies" not the combination of 3 states worth of cities
whoever posted that data about GDP rankings emphasized the "just one city" vs the world and put the "and its metro area" as something of an after thought, as if the metro area is just a complement to what nyc alone generates in output
new york city's gdp is closer to 500 billion probably. oycrumbler over here excited because i skimmed over that dude's posts, getting off calling people slow lol "hey danny sorry bro"
log off for a half hour
