NYC is one of the most overrated cities full of ppl with huge egos who haven’t Accomplished much.

NYC
1) dusty and dirty
2) have the most masculine women in the world…top 1 or 2 spot
3) ppl not even gettin money like how you’d believe

London
1) cleaner
2) safer
3) nice, kind ppl
4) very few manly hoes
5) more fashionable
6) lotta dope spots
7) extremely integrated
8) food is ok at best tho :/
9) overcast when not in the summer

Anyone else been to both?

Us non east coast folks had these high expectations for nyc based on tv, movies and music…but after you’ve finally arrived especially if you’ve been to Tokyo, London, or any other world class city…can’t help but be disappointed.

Chime in

Nah, NYC is better.

In terms of infrastructure, London is better. I think that America as a whole has lower standards when it comes to things like pavements and buildings although as I am writing this Grenfell comes to mind.

People, vibe, things to do, NYC is leagues ahead.
Maybe I missed the vibe and ppl and things to do

I like both. Good memories in those cities for me. Maybe I prefer London since I can't just visit on a whim like I can for the Bronx/NYC.

I deadass want to go back to London for the KFC. The chicken tastes like how it used to here in the US. They also got this Robinsons drink that is legit.

SMF and LAX to VA and NC
Never been to London but Los Angeles greater than New York...

New York is dope, on aggregate it deserves its reputation but it is slightly overrated. It's age and historical heft gives it the one up on LA---->LA had 100,000 people in 1900. Just think about that for a second. That was only 122 years ago...

In less than a century Los Angeles caught up to NY in nearly anything, and I've been on this for years, anything you can do in NY that matters, you can do in Los Angeles...

So I'm not sure how London compares but NY is overinflated online stateside, and it doesn't have to be. But when you meet folk who've been to both, the typical reaction is right down the middle 50/50, but when you're online you get way more NY riders in part because many people haven't experienced both...
