Question for Non-New Yorkers ONLY! Why do you love New York so much?

Well, im actually from nyc and the only thing i really care for here is Manhattan and the city. I love it but dont really care to live where i live. New york IS crowded - we're the biggest city in the country..but it may seem like a lot for you cause maybe you're from a much smaller town?? i think ppl love new york city in particular bc of all the attractions and things to do. they love the life the city has. thats why i like it too, but not really the rest of ny.
