Most "Status" oriented cities (Where to get a job?)
I read the forums on different cities in the US and the "feel" of them, but I'd like to know which are very focused on "status" and "prestige"
My take:
1. New York City-very hierarchical, most chicks looking for older guys with a penthouse and prestigious job. Which building you live on the Upper East or West side, what firm you work at, etc. You can hardly get into a conversation with a girl that doesn't involve your job. One of the only cities where it is commonplace to wear business casual to a bar. People don't care about what car you drive because you probably don't have one.
2. Los Angeles: Pretentiousness comes with the celebrity-crazed town. Paparazzi, Beverly Hills, etc, lots of snobbery. Gold diggers and aspiring actresses wanting to get their name on a newspaper somehow. I almost feel that the people are naturally stuck up, even if they don't have loads of money.
3. Miami: Definitely different than New York city (LA is more of a blend.) Miami reminds me of the "bridge and tunnel" crowd of NYC (Jersey, Long Island, Staten Island.) Expensive, gaudy clothes, jewelry, and cars. Gold diggers galore, but moreso checking out the rides and bottles on your table than your job (no one seems to care about job prestige). Nouveau riche mentality for sure.
Chicago, San Diego, Austin seems to be chill and less status oriented? Not really sure. Sound off on what your take is.

+1. great topic and solid
+1. great topic and solid post, dude. I have to jump in as an avid advocator of "status". some points to argue for:
1. Most "status" oriented cities = New York, New York, New York.
What you said about new yorkers are basically true and I love it. I've lived in almost all major cities of the states and I only found NYC to be my best fit for "status" worshipping. I could not probably find even one single person who shares what I love regarding "status" in any other cities (Note: especially, particularly the midwest). But in here, I don't even bother searching. There are a ton of that breed out there.
A little off the topic, you said new york girls dig older men with fab jobs and titles. I don't disagree. Maybe. But how pathetic is that? How older are the men? Personally, most of the times, I only want to date younger (younger than I am) guys with the equivalent potentials. (Pedo smile)
My very own motto: "being an old fart is not your fault, but being an unloyal, creepy, sexual old fart is your sin for sure".
2. LA. Nah, nah. I know a lot about Hollywood. I would say that city is more likely "publicity" oriented. Also, is any "status" in showbiz considered real "status"? lol C'mon.
3. Miami on this list is a joke.

Look man, I'm on your page. I came to NYC from the South, so it's been a huge change. That being said, you can find people like-minded who think the city is full of people who would give their left-nut to feel like their caste is higher (which is just sad). My advice is go to a big city, make bigger money, find some guys you can have a good time with, keep your head down, avoid the jappy girls and asian girls, and then move back to the real world once you've made some money.

(1) NYC definitely.
(2) LA - Yes and no. Ordinary finance/business guys in SoCal are pretty chill. But anyone connected to the entertainment industry is likely to be a massive douche. You have to have some sort of insane ego to think, yes, I will be the one who "makes it", among all the thousands of baristas who are also trying to "make it". Stick to the normal people, and it's great.
(3) Miami - Never really would have thought of Miami as status oriented.
I'd nominate DC as a replacement for Miami. I never thought of DC as status oriented, but apparently the influx of young people has caused something of a public service prestige order to develop. I have no idea what order it is (Fed > CBO > CFPB?) but it apparently exists.

the stereotype is girls like midtowngal above, very very status oriented, probably comes from some kind of insecurity, which is no more fun to deal with than a social climber.
obviously stereotypes are stereotypes, there are great asian girls out there.

yeah, as far as I'm concerned, if I ever get to the point where girls try to get with me for my status, they'll be nothing but cum dumpsters in my eyes
