Living in NYC, grad life, first apartment, new york city living, moving to NYC, move to New York, life in New York
One thing about NYC doesn’t adjust your lifestyle it is you adjusting to NYC!! NYC isn’t cute vibe , it’s a hustle and grinding your way until you’re ready to move on.
Agreed! definitely a hustle, and not as glamorous as people make it seem
All yall who dont want to be here please leave so we have more space. I promise you when you travel to anywhere else in this country and you have to get in your car just to go to the local pharmacy or drive 30 mins just to meet up with some friends you'll miss NY
I am a New Yorker and trying my best to get the hell up outta here !!!!
Please do. We don’t need your negativity. Thanks.
@@damnjustassignmeone no negativity ! It’s called being honest my friend. You should try it sometime. Now u have a good one luv 🤙🏾
@@kamyiamonee3798 I guess that’s your reality. It’s not mine. I like NY. I’ve lived here over 20 years. Other cities always bore me after some time.
I live in NYC, agree with your points, and am so tired with the obsession over it. It's an iconic city but it's not the only one like that, Chicago is very similar and actually much cheaper. Not sure what happened but many people don't even think about moving there now, it's all about NYC or LA. Due to the high cost, NYC ends up attracting a disproportionate amount of young people with well off parents or who went to top schools, which really distorts the social life and personalities we encounter. They can afford the high prices on everything, for social life, and to keep on top of every new trend. There are many generational ethnic enclave people too but they have their own bubbles separate from single people that move to the city. It may get worse due to retro trends, with NYC being seen as the center of coolness in the early 2000s, which led to a large influx of people making the rent skyrocket even faster, which has been an issue for awhile now but especially bad recently.
Lmao I live in Chicago and it is not very similar. Our transit is way less reliable, our restaurant and theater scenes is second tier to NY, we don't get the same amount of options when it comes to culture festivals. Like there's a reason NYC and LA are more expensive they have everything especially NY
@@pimpnamedslickback7780 I honestly loved Chicago aside from the weather. While it is definitely not LA or NY, I do think it checks off most boxes for people looking to live in a major city.
@@pimpnamedslickback7780 yeah I never got why people liked the city >_> I live in walking distance from the Japanese stores in the suburbs, that's enough for me
@@pimpnamedslickback7780 I see your point, but surely Chicago is a big step up from Detroit, isn't it?
We visited for the first time in June and I loved it. Everyone was very kind. They could tell we were from CA so we kept hearing about “Cali” 😂 as they call it. We were offered drugs on Wall Street, we solicited for money on the subway in the most dramatic theatrical way, and the city did stink…not to mention spiderman on Times Square was incredibly rude compared to our spiderman on Hollywood Blvd, but I enjoyed visiting. Don’t think I’d want to live there. 2 days was enough. I could see myself living in Brooklyn for a little bit though. Brooklyn was nice. But then again, we were only there a couple days.
The price alone is enough for me…biggest problem tbh…
Curious, would you rather live in a city in South Korea or elsewhere in East Asia as opposed to New York City? Do you think Seoul is better than New York City?
Lovey video. Very nice make-up.
Move to Texas or Tennessee. You’ll never regret it.
This was so cathartic to listen to - I agree with all your points!! Moved here from Chicago a year ago and miss it so much every single day.
L.A. would be nice palm trees warm weather....I would love to live in Los Angeles. Orange County Huntington Beach area is really nice from what i have seen...
Hi, native New York here. Born and raised. I left when I was 18 because, among other reasons, I hated it there and I’ve never moved back. I never will. Perhaps you’ve heard this little adage: The second hardest thing in the world to do is to convince a New Yorker to leave New York City. The hardest thing in the world to do is to convince him to move back.
Have not heard that but I agree! People who leave tend to stay away because they learn to get comfortable with quiet or driving a car or having a nice yard lol
@@schoe6309 All of that is true for me. I haven’t been back since 2006 and except for pizza and Chinese food, I don’t miss it at all. I do watch videos about New York City from time to time, particularly those posted by Cash Jordan and it seems like New York City is returning to the cesspool it was when I grew up in the 1970s and the 1980s. If you want my advice young lady, get out while you are young and beautiful. New York City will make you hard and grizzled.
@@MrSethmo13 I believe that New York is WAY WORSE than it was back in the 1970’s and 1980’s.
@@1525boy I don’t mean to argue with you, but I am curious. Did you experience New York City in the 1970s in the 1980s? I watch videos about New York City nowadays and I am hearing CZcamsrs make remarks like “the subways just aren’t safe anymore“. Back in the 1970s and the 1980s, it was well known that the subways were a mugger’s paradise. You didn’t dare ride the subways alone at night, and if you did, you were taking your life in your own hands. The subways of the 1970s in the 1980s gave rise to the Guardian Angels, a group of volunteer vigilantes with martial arts training that would patrol the subways after dark to protect riders from the very well known threat of violent attacks by muggers and thieves. And it wasn’t just the subways. In 1974, at the tender age of eight, I was mugged for the first time in my own neighborhood in broad daylight on a Sunday afternoon. And that was just the first of several such incidents, the last of which entailed me being mugged at knife point in broad daylight at the age of 17 in 1983, again in my own neighborhood. So I’m curious, if you experienced New York City back in the 1970s and the 1980s and if you still reside there today, that would give a lot of credibility to your opinion that things are worse now. But if you are much younger than me and if you have only experienced New York City over the past 20 years, I think you lack the basis for making a reliable comparison/assessment. I would suggest that you go to your Google search engine and type in the following search:
“in terms of crime, is New York City worse now than it was in the 1970s in the 1980s?”
When you’ve done that, you will have an objective answer that resolves this dispute once and for all.
NYC Subways have bedbugs too! So disgusting.
Subways don’t have bedbugs. I’ve never had bedbugs, and Ive ridden the subway at least twice everyday for over 20 years.
I was holding a railing in subway one time and saw one crawling down my arm. Lots of the immigrants and people who live in low income housing have bedbugs in nyc. They sell used mattresses with bedbugs in them too
New York City’s best days are LONG GONE!
Those are the same reasons why I hate São Paulo, the city where I live now. In São Paulo is the NY of Brazil. Everybody wants to come here thinking is where everything happens and that's part of the problem of why is so chaotic. I have a theory that big cities have a tendency to be chaotic if not properly maintained and cared for.
Move to Boston ..you will enjoy
Enjoy what? The Boston metro that stops at 10pm every night?
The Boston mayor wants to stop arrests for theft, disorderly conduct, shoplifting. It’s going the way of NYC. Lawlessness.
It’s the City what you expect it’s going to be noisy, Brooklyn and queens is your best bet to live if you can afford it other than that go else where we are crowded and rude in New York and New Yorkers trying to leave as well lol
Actually, the metro in DC is great.
Right. Also she’s stating the obvious about NYC. You don’t have to live in NYC to know this. It’s apparent visiting.
Try the metro in the Asian countries. Blows NYC metro out of the water.
I went to Tokyo and it completely ruined the way I view New York
Move to Tokyo then? I’ll stay in New York.
@@damnjustassignmeone thanks for giving me permission lol
@@supervro3071 If all you want is on time trains and order, Tokyo is the place. Just remember, though, the nail that sticks out gets hammered down in Japan.
@@damnjustassignmeone thanks
I’ve seen some NYC videos where it’s just plainly walking to see how “nice” it is and most people look cold and mean, old newspapers on ground and people could care less to pick it up and at least throw it away. 😮geeze.
There was a time when I picked up trash from the ground when I saw it. After a while, I had to stop because it was exhausting! There is an endless amount and a lot of it is absolutely disgusting - feces, used tampons, human teeth, etc. I do think that a lot of people who live here just have to turn the other way so that they don't become completely disheartened.
You sound like London Tipton
Thank you?? that's quite the compliment
You kinda look like her too
BERLIN IS A ZILLION TIMES BETTER THAN new york or chicago!
NYC is good for visiting but NOT living.
If you don’t like NYC, then move. I’m sick of people just ragging on it. I’ve lived here for over 20 years, and I love it. Also, stop saying NYC when you really mean Manhattan.
Actually, lived in Brooklyn for a bit too! I’m just trying to negate all the videos out there about how incredible NYC is and give a more realstic view.
People have talked about mean New Yorkers before.
I’m from the Midwest. I’ve lived in NYC now for 20 years. There’s nothing mean about New Yorkers.
@@damnjustassignmeonelol this guys under every comment. relax buddy seems like the city owns you
I noticed that. Like a middle schooler..fusion annoying,
NYC is overrated, and HORRIBLE!!! I lived there for 3 years and it was enough. Glad I am not there.
Didnt enjoy watching th makeup application- its grooming. Eliminate.
🙏🙏🙏
Why aren't your video views increasing? And not reaching people?
The reason is
1. Your video is not being SEO properly
2. Your video is not reaching the right people
3. Not using video hashtags properly
4. Not sharing the video on social media
There are a few more reasons.
That's why your videos are limited to your channel. Can't get out
In a word, your video is awesome.
such videos are in great demand.
If you do these things correctly. Hopefully you will get a lot of visitors.
Feel free to ask me any questions you may have.
If i can help a wonderful person like you. Feel lucky. I will cooperate with you in all kinds.
I am waiting your reply,,,,
NY and CA are falling of a cliff! Keep voting Democrat!
