New York City

To many, New York City is not only the hub of the United States, but the cultural, economic and societal center of the world. New York City is teeming with diverse individuals, dazzling sights and pulsating industry. At least once in your life, you must visit and soak up the stimuli of New York City in order to become a true citizen of the world. If you are bold enough to be a permanent dweller in New York City, you may want to consider leaving that space for a trip upstate (perhaps to Elmsford, NY)--to really understand the city's literal and metaphorical strength, you must look on it from outside, from another angle, from another slice of New York life.
