Why doesn't London feel as glamorous as NYC
NYC is 1000% better in nearly every way. Why do people think London can even compare? It’s not even close.

In London the hobos compliment my suit, in New York they try to stab me.
You’re just making stuff up. The crime index is higher in London than NYC.
https://www.numbeo.com/crime/compare_cities.jsp?country1=United+Kingdom…
London area: 1,572 km²
New York area: 783.8 km²
This crime index appears to be high solely because a shithole located one hour away from the city centre (in the South) is considered as being part of London
Me at the facts factory getting the latest hot facts 😎
I assume your shitposting.. London is better in many ways but perhaps not overall better... nevertheless
You’re? I assume you didn’t get past 5th grade phonics. Also, I posted the crime rates. This isn’t 1990 NYC.
NYC has parks everywhere. But, I guess if you haven’t explored the city you wouldn’t know.
He made 10 good points and you only had one point to clap back on + a grammar connection? This isn't English class lol.
Fwiw I prefer New York, but this isn't the way to defend any point.
Isaiah bro are you drunk? You’re usually a bit more docile.
Who tf took phonics in 5th grade
Some facts here I'll agree.
Major difference is NYC is top city in US while London is in UK, part of Europe. The fact that many of us can't argue on this with personal experience is we have never lived in London long enough / never intend to do so
https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.businessinsider.com/new-york-city-vs-l…
One hundred and twenty six of NYC's restaurants have been awarded Michelin stars, just over twice the number of London's Michelin star rated restaurants (62).
There are also nine NYC restaurants that made it onto the World's 100 Best Restaurants list, whereas only five London restaurants made it onto the list.
NYC bars offer longer hours: the majority of bars in New York stay open till 4am on the weekends. Some stay open this late on weekdays as well, but a number of them close an hour or two earlier. Clubs in New York go on well into the early morning hours.
Yelp has a total of 859 24-hour stores listed for London, compared to 5,738listed for NYC.
Considering that New York City won in six out of the 11 categories we used for comparison (London won in five), New York City is the winner of the debate.
London has better weather? I've never been but all I've heard is the stereotypes about it always being cloudy or rainy
Yeah I thought that was suspect too. They don’t call it London Fog for nothing. I think the weather was a generalization including low temps in the winter, but after living in NYC, know just to wear boots and crunching in the snow with a big jacket and scarf on in the city is kind of fun. So what they see as a negative (low winter temps) - it is not something that really bothers me personally.
The weather in the UK is just a meme. It's just mild and rains a bit and London arguably has some of the best weather in the UK anyway. NYC can be blistering hot or freezing cold and rainy. London hasn't even had snow for several years.
It’s may sound surprising but I’d agree that London has much better weather having spent years in both. It really doesn’t rain as much as people think in London. NYC seems to get as much or more and it often rains harder as well. Mild winters in London are really nice. Cold enough to feel like winter but without the headaches of snow, slush and ice. Summers are really great as well - they’re not humid and uncomfortable like in NYC.
no beef but you just proved my point... NYC won 6 out of 11 and so London won 5 out of 11
so you can't say "why do people think London can even compare" - quite a few people might the value those 5 more than the NYC 6
This ^ - NYC won by 1/11 ~ 9% by your own measure... hardly a home run
nah London 1000000% much more cultured.
Going for girls in their prime is based, enjoy used up roasties

Not sure why you associate me as seeking out minors as I never have said that or done anything illegal. You have issues if that stuff is in your head, because it’s not in mine.
Fuck you, sincerely,
Isaiah
Also, I bet you feel great being a keyboard warrior and just typing whatever untrue and defamatory shit anonymously.
The truth is that you don’t have the balls to say that to my face and if you did I would crack your left orbital with my elbow. Bitch.
Show some respect and learn that defaming someone will never get you anywhere except in the ER or lawsuits. And you hide in your anonymous state like the little bitch that you are. I hope you sleep well tonight knowing that you can hide behind your little monitor and be safe, because those are fighting words and you would never dare say that shit to me in person. Have fun living life in your little world that no one can touch, because if you venture out into reality with the rest of us, you’re gonna get hurt. So why don’t you just shut the fuck up talking shit that isn’t true and actually do something productive with your life.
The difference between your statement and reality is that I never said I like to look at 16 year old girls. I said I like tik tok - do I have to draw a Venn diagram for you, bitch.
How bout you shut the fuck up and stop talking shit. Did you really have to make that edit? What kind of demented shit do you have going on in your life that you have to accuse people of being pedos? You must not have that much respect for yourself and definitely don’t support the concept of truth, so your issues here are obviously greater than mine so get help bro or start to do something positive in your life other than accusing people of things on the internet. Know truth. You don’t seem to get what pursing truth and loving kindness mean in life. Get with it dude - stop being a piece of dog shit.
Based, I watch 16 year olds in bikinis too on Tiktok.
London beats NYC on everything except the 3 most important.
Comp, hot girls, opportunity set
Yeah these three are good. One thing that really makes it for me is the 24/7 style of the city. I’ve been working at a Kinkos or similar in the middle of the night then directly went to eat at 4am at a very good 24hr buffet. I feel like when you want to be productive in NYC, you can do it at anytime. The NYU Bobst Library is open 24/7 and I used to spend time there studying for the CFA exams and then could always find a deli open for some grub. It’s a big draw to me as my hours are really weird sometimes and embrace when I am productive, no matter what time it is.
I hope you're just shitposting
London is infinitely better as a place bearing human beings than NYC. Not sure if this has been reality in NYC for too long but it's littered with problems. Visible obesity, high crime, casual thuggery on the streets, rampant poverty, garbage everywhere, mind boggling scammers, and overall a heightened space to live in. I am still traumatised by a story my brother has told me about - of a man shitting on the subway station. Wtf?
Heck all of North America doesn't have a spot nearly as pleasant as Bloomsbury. In contrast the atmosphere in NYC is overwhelming at points.
Mate if NYC is too fat for you, specifically the places where affluent millennials live, then I got some bad news about the rest of our country :(((((
On one hand, London has more Africans.
On the other, NYC has a lot more tier 2 caucasians (Irish, Italian, Eastern European).
It depends on what demographic you can tolerate more. Personally, I prefer London because their Africans have less firearms. I can survive a shanking better than being turned into swiss cheese by "King Von" from "O Block".
New York also has a ton of the sneaky white people, which isn’t ideal.
London demographics are just generally far better. Better types of white people, better immigrants etc.
I wouldn't say better immigrants (after all, a whole song was made about "brixton bullies", which I don't pretend to understand, but I assume it's about African "gangbangers" in the neighbourhood of Brixton"), but definitely better class caucasians.
Better types of white people? Ok bro
No matter how different New York is from the rest of the United States, it's still just a great American city with a lot of foreigners.
London, meanwhile, is a true international city.
London is better than new york in a few different areas, this wreaks of someone who's never been to both places or is a man child without the ability to accept that people have different preferences/likes.
I'm calling it. Isaiah's gonna read this and not address a single thing you said, but will drone on about how you said "wreak" instead of "reek".
hahaha, my bad on that but i think ill leave it as is to test your theory
But sir it is based on my personal taste. For example, the homicide rate is much lower.
I haven’t lived in or even been to London. But from what I’ve heard from my British friends, below is what makes NY - Manhattan specifically, let’s ignore the other boroughs for the time being - better than London (for finance folks in the age group 20-40 at least):
