I’ve never been to either, but I’d rather visit NY over LA.

Id rather visit north Cali over SoCal to see the redwoods & rural parts of Cali

Yea the scenery out here in northern cali nice static

I fukking love Broward folk. They really are cool people. When I lived down there everyone was so nice.

Picking up on your nice point...I expected new yorkers to be rude..but when I went everyone I met was super nice. I chopped it up wit people and it wasn't what tv shows (the rude new yorker). Maybe its because I was in tourist spots, but I really felt welcomed.

The Coli has an anti-NY bias.

In real life of course you hardly see that.

How is the Muslim community like in LA? It seemed none existent when I was out there, where do you usually go during Friday prayers? I heard they're more up North in the Bay area.

Yeah, I rarely ever went to Mosque there. I would mostly make prayer at home. I know they have ICSC, but I never went.

The Islamic culture I felt was more vibrant in NY, but then again, it could be because I grew up here, so I knew more. I don't really know LA Muslims who could've put me on.

I never went to a Mosque while I was at LA too, I would see other Muslims visiting from the Gulf States in Orange County, West Hollywood and other parts, but never in a Islamic gathering. Not many Mosques around for a major City. I love the City weather and the Beaches, but something was missing..and it is not very friendly City for Muslims to be at, no sense of community.

I live in the UK but I've always been interested in New York not so much LA

NY.

I love the cold snowy winters and having the ability to experience the four seasons (Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter) yearly. Bright City Lights. The clothing. Food. Times Square. Broadway musicals/plays. Style. Music. The PPL. Historical/cultural landmarks and the enormous amounts of opportunities within the city with so much variety to explore new things.

I don't like California. Beaches serve no purpose for me, not a fan of year-round warm weather, too many gangs, terrible traffic, bland party music, not enough black people. California is just like Florida, nothing but beaches and warm weather.

You don't like beaches and year round warm weather... I hear that a lot from New England people. I don't understand it.

Also... LA is as much or more a performing arts Mecca as NY. I agree that New York has a lot more culture. In LA you can be whatever you want to be and your personal relationships seem a lot more meaningful.

Better weed. More laid back. I enjoyed New York. I love a lot of things about it. LA just takes the crown.

How many times is this thread going to come up? And it ALWAYS becomes a NY hate thread.

1. Some people are jealous.
2. Most of the time NY people can't accept the same energy they dish out.

3. Narcissistic people love to hear themselves talk.

New Yorkers aren't inherently rude. We just move fast. Speed is very important to us. If you ain't holding us up we're very kind.

NYC.

Feels like there's considerably more black people in NYC compared to LA.

Better nightlife too.

+1 on diversity of Black women.
-1 on nightlife.

The Caribbean community, an African community are 100% better in NY.

In real life of course you hardly see that.

Most of it has to do with regionalized hip hop and sports.
