THE GREATEST CITY

I'M A NATIVE NEW YORKER, BORN & RAISED IN QUEENS. I'M 29, AND WILL NEVER LEAVE. THIS IS THE GREATEST CITY IN THE WORLD. WHEN IMMIGRANTS FROM OTHER COUNTRIES COME HERE TO LIVE, THEY TRY TO MAKE THE BEST OF IT. BUT WHEN OTHER AMERICANS FROM THE SOUTH OR MIDWEST COME HERE, THEY COMPLAIN A LOT. WHY DO THEY STAY HERE THEN? YES, IT'S EXPENSIVE, BUT I'M SURE THEY KNEW THAT BEFORE COMING. ALSO, THEY ALL MIGRATE TO MANHATTAN! EVERYONE KNOWS MANHATTAN IS THE MOST EXPENSIVE AREA! WHY DON'T THEY MOVE TO QUEENS OR BROOKLYN? IT'S DIFFERENT WHEN YOU'RE A NATIVE. YOU APPRECIATE THE LITTLE THINGS MORE...
