Americans, if you could live in any country where would you want to live?

NYC is the city to end all cities. I've traveled all around the World, and aside from India, NYC was the biggest culture shock. Nowhere else in the World can you walk 2 blocks and have it feel like a completely different city. It is absolutely steeped in culture, interesting things, interesting people, and incredible food. NYC is also super safe, there is almost no real crime despite what people who have never been there would have you think. It's not the '80s anymore.
All that being said, it is too much for me personally, I'd never live there. Cost not withstanding.
If you go your entire life never having visited NYC, you are doing yourself a disservice. See it before America falls!

Every city on earth is a rat hole. Cities are abominations.

Yeah the problem is, lots of people from my hometown have actually been there, and their stories match. Oh, and two were mugged, including a 15 year old boy.
