And they still would rather live in NYC than in Atlanta. Mind bogling, isn't it?

By the way, you can still buy a nice, new condo in very live part of Brooklyn, two stops from Manhattan for about 400K. Rachael you wnet to Poland, right? You may like Greenpoint, Brooklyn then

Why do you wanna know so bad where I was in NYC. Again Im going to wite 2 senteces , I DONT NEED TO VALIDATE THAT THRU YOU

This is why the trains smell like pee


YouTube - peeing on the F train


I've been riding the subway my whole life, and have never seen anyone pee in the subway. You make it seem like this happens all the time.

You're insulting our subway system when Atlanta's world class transit looks like this:

And it's common sense that a subway system that started in the 1890s vs. a system that began in the early 70s, lol.

There's a reason why people move to NYC if they want to experience the city life and not living in a car-dependent city.

Never been to that neighborhood, but my family is from Maspeth, which has one of the highest populations of Poles in the city too. I sometimes go to the Polish grocery stores there. Gotta get my fix of pierogies sometimes, lol. But I ate so many there, that I won't want any for about 6 months or so

I'll check out Greenpoint sometime.

I'm still waiting to see what neighborhoods a certain poster has experienced the city life in the outer-boroughs. Me thinks someone has never left midtown Manhattan

Most people dont expect the outer-boroughs of NYC to be exciting, but honestly, I find the neighborhoods more exciting and real close-knit:


YouTube - Jackson Heights


YouTube - Broadway in Astoria Queens


YouTube - Egypt African cup 2010 win Celebrations in Astoria Queens


And those are just 3 neighborhoods...

Oh yeah? might want to check out this thread and see how many people moved to Atlanta say that the bigger house isn't worth it; that they would much rather be in a smaller house and in NYC:
