Shanghai is emerging trendy ultra futuristic space age galaxy. Bizarre Hong Kong, Tokyo, Bangkok, Singapore are continuing to get more attention compared to this Chinese megalopolis destination zone. Actually more of a wow factor recently compared to New York City, even though they are equal.

However, out of all those strengths to Shanghai, there is a weakness relative deficiency to technically having a Cosmopolitan atmosphere. Requiring more diversity later on. Shanghai is very exotic while New York City is too familiar. One of the best collections of Architecture in all of Planet Earth between The Bund classical versus Pudong modern. Shanghai’s nightlife is thriving to top of mainland Asia ambiance elevation levels. Quite a ubiquitous enough occurrence.

How is Shanghai equal to NYC?

What a joke.
Shanghai has a more modern infrastructure than NYC. That's the only area where it can edge out NYC.
It gets blown out of the water by NYC in pretty much every other category that a city can offer to non-natives.

why is it a good thing to accommodate non-natives? Ask any New Yorkers,
and most of them will think of NYC as a hell hole

That's kind of the point of this thread/poll.
Speaking of hellholes have you been to Shanghai in July?

lived in Shanghai for 5 years, and now live in NYC. NYC feels really third world compared to Shanghai
Infrastructure, safety, public transit, education, health care, Shanghai all wins by a lot
