To MANY people overseas NY makes every other city in America irrelevant.



You're using the same logic.

Philly and NY is like 2 different planets, but if you want to lump em in lump em ALL in like those people do.

The World, but from BK
why are people from dc moving to ny? i thought it was the other way around

A lot of people just don't want to live in one place for their whole life. So a lot of folks move around in their 20's and 30's. A lot of people are comfortable moving from city to city .

San Francisco to Oakland. SF is promoted as some liberal tolerant world class pristine crime free city on par with Paris and Oakland is depicted as a ghetto shythole with no nice areas. The truth is both cities have good and bad areas. Actually, historically, the worst areas of SF are hella shytier than the worst areas of Oakland. Hunters Point, SF has the highest infant mortality rate in California. The projects in Hunters Point and Sunnydale are more rundown than anything in Oakland. :picard: Both SF and Oakland used to have roughly the same number of homicides many years, the only difference is that SF is twice the size of Oakland. Not too long ago, SF had a higher murder rate for blacks than Oakland because at least Oakland has a black middle class whereas nearly all of SF's remaining black population resides in the projects.

S.F. more deadly than Oakland for blacks?


But if you listen to popular opinion based on cac perspective, SF is a "nice place" and Oakland is the one and only ghetto in the Bay Area. :troll: But gentrification is quickly turning stereotypes into reality in the Bay as SF continues to lose its black population. SF has had the most severe case of black flight of any city in the country.

I don't know about the Philly NYC thing. As far as our demograp/culture, Philly kinda overshadows NYC.

DC wants to be on some sucker shyt. "We don't want you to have your own shyt, we want you to use ours" type shyt . ...not gonna happen. Baltimore is more unique than DC and Philly in my opinion. I don't think any of the other cities care what's going on in NYC.

nikka what? I know you don’t like DC and wouldn’t pass up a chance to talk slick shyt about it, be it here or City-Data but what? :heh: DC nikkas generally don’t like it when other cities take they shyt without acknowledgement, that is actually some sucka shyt.

Other than that, you right don’t any major cities on the East Coast think about NY like that. Can’t comment on Boston tho.

@BrothaZay is right, I was just telling my brother this. Philly has a long, storied history but is rarely ever mentioned as one of the best cities in the country.

I actually like DC.

I don't like how DC wants Baltimore to be part of that DMV shyt. There is no "we" shyt around here. We aren't Wizards' fans, we aren't Redskins' fans, we Don't fukk with Gogo, this isn't the "Capitol Region" or the "DMV." Baltimore does its own thing, we don't ride other cities' coattails.

Other than that, I fukk with DC.

Huh? :what:

DC and Baltimore is two different worlds, and people from both cities acknowledge that. Nobody in DC wants Baltimore to be part of the DMV. That don't even make any sense. DMV= DC Metro area. Don't know where you're even getting that from other than maybe the owner of the Wizards and Caps marketing his teams in Baltimore.
