The Advantages of Living in NYC

By Jonah

NYC is a beautiful place to live. There are so many advantages living there. You can do so many things there. The convenience, the different landmarks, all the buildings, and many more things! I’ll show you why, but you better keep reading!

The Convenience is Amazing

Did you know that there are at least five stores on most streets in NYC? If you need to go grocery shopping, or you want to go to the convenience store usually, you just have to walk out your door and your there! In an interview with Phillip Novgorodsky, a fifth grader at Manhattan New School who moved to NYC from Ohio, says, “ I really like the convenience here better than Ohio because in NYC if you want a slice of pizza, there is one on almost every block. In Ohio, you have to drive a lot which means you waste a lot of gas and money”. Now you see what I mean, right?

The Different Landmarks

If you are bored in NYC [Which you should never be] go to central park, take a tour of the Empire State Building. Novgorodsky says, “ I love the different sites and sounds of the city. There is so much to do, and I just love it”. There is really so much you can do here in NYC

The Public Transportation Is Very Helpful The public transportation in New York City is one of the best in the U.S or the world! You don’t need a car, just take the

subway or bus for $2.25 a ride! It takes you from The Bronx- Brooklyn, Queens-Manhattan! It’s even in Staten Island! The public transportation is great and is in all of the five boroughs!

 

Schools

Parents. Do you want your child going to school? No problem! In NYC, there are plenty of different schools to go

to. I think there are too many schools! Public, private, all amazing schools! And they will all help a child have a great

education they need.

You don’t NEED a car like I said earlier, but if you do, there are plenty of ways to get in and out of New York City. Bridges, highways and

many more things! 

 

There are so many advantages living in New York City than anyplace else. So much to do, so many places to go. Like taking a tour of the Empire State building and being up the Statue Of Liberty! Or if you want to go have something to eat, there is something that has food weather it’s a restaurant, a food stand, a snack bar, anything on most streets. If you want to go shopping, go to midtown, Thirty-fourth Street. There is a huge Macys and plenty more clothing shops all around the city. My point is, there are so many advantages living in New York City than anywhere else!
