City Living

I've lived in Manhattan for 12 years...so I guess I'm a New Yorker now. At first the over stimulation of walking, schleping, and the sites and sounds was a bit much but later you adapt. Everything is convenient and the entertainment, culture and career opportunities are endless. If you can't afford a large apartment, or a weekend getaway place, and you life is all about being out -- then quality of life is great. However, if you are a person who needs more at home, Manhattan might be a challenge -- particularly if you're raising a family here. Overall, it's a great place and everyone should live here when they are young.
