About the financial district, it’s also much quieter because many traditional banks and firms have been moving their headquarters to Midtown in Midtown east in the past few years. Personally, I love it, it feels so old-school New York off the grid and lots of funky little winding streets

Wall Street/Downtown have been losing financial firms to the midtown since the 60s. There have been attempts in the 70s to rebuild new areas downtown to compete with Midtown but for the most part they failed (the buildings on Water Street and most notably the OG World Trade Center which was a financial flop). In 2021, the last bank left on Wall Street (Deutsche Bank) moved out leaving no banks left on Wall Street.

Understanding that this is a totally subjective list, as a native New Yorker I needed to add some notable neighborhoods that compete with any on this list: Long Island City- one train stop into midtown Manhattan, and the best views of NYC, bar none. Forest Hills- an actual tudor style village within the greater city of NYC, with the storied Forest Hills Stadium at its center. Rockaway- The end of the A-Train, the Atlantic Ocean and beautiful beaches on one side; Jamaica Bay national wildlife refuge on the other. All with a view of the Manhattan skyline in the distance!

I moved here 50 years ago . Chelsea and I have grown up together. One sad memory is the Theater District where so many of the performing arts people lived. They walked to work. It was a hell hole, home to the pavement princess crowd and their fans. Always crowded, always noisy, always vital, you always knew you were in New York, New York, America. One place that's a favorite of "nice" people is Tribeca. For me, though, whenever I go there I always miss the turn-off for Spectacular boulevard. There is no "there"there. I must not be a nice person. I miss the East 40s and 50s, and Sutton Place. The 60s were "swinging." The UWS was do different, where Mom & Pop had stores. It was gritty but not dull like today. Boo. Hiss. Lincoln Center as a neighborhood was chic. That's when the Arts were prominent, important, the fabric of New York. That all seemed to vanish when the millinneals moved to town. Culture is not their forte. Sigh.

Interesting list. I would not have included Times Square as a distinct residential area, although agree it is close to the bottom if you live there which I would avoid like the plague. I would have included Carroll Gardens, Cobble Hill, Park Slope, Forest Hills, Riverdale, UES. Parts of the LES and Little Italy are basically the same these days and merge into Chinatown. I might have carved out NoHo maybe. Gramercy and Lower 5th/ Flatiron. All great in their own way. In truth, NoHo and the northern part of the LES have a vibe distinct from streets below Delancey.

Tough job to combine most popular for both residents and tourusts. I'd think the Upper East Side would make the cut for both before some of those you included, such as Bushwick. For tourists, I don't see any omissions. For a list for potential residents, I'd leave off many of these and add Park Slope, Bay Ridge, LIC, Forrest Hills, Inwood, and Riverdale. I live on the UWS which I think is great both to live and for a hotel stay.

Great video Jon! very much used to be an avid watcher of your channel... just no time now as have a toddler! Hey obviously lots of debate to say the least. I find it very hard to leave out Park Slope and also Cobble Hill/Carroll Gardens. Park Slope for my wife and I would be nearer the top. We lived in NYC for 2 years about 3 years ago (yes during covid). Lived in Harlem for 12 months then got very lucky with lower rent prices at the time and picked up a steal in Dumbo. Perhaps you've done this already... but we will need the next 20 ranked below this field!! Final thought... I have friends that would firmly have Greenpoint at the number 1!!
@tips4tourists790
@tips4tourists790 Ай бұрын
Hey Jon, awesome video as always. I will say that there are a few neighborhoods I would switch around in this video. I think it's worth mentioning that cost of living regardless is an issue for the city as a whole. This is only my own personal opinion, and I'm just speaking from my own experiences. First, I would note that Bushwick overall would be one of my top picks for the whole city. The way I see it, safety is more of an issue for the southern and eastern parts of the neighborhood. However, when it comes to the strips along Wyckoff Ave, Myrtle Ave and Broadway, the nightlife scene thrives and those are the areas that are right next to the subway. Yeah, the subway isn't the most reliable at night, but that kinda goes for the whole system. Plus, considering it is right next to the Queens borders with Maspeth and Ridgewood, there are a number of bus lines that lead to areas all over Brooklyn and Queens, minus the traffic due to the lack of cars at night. Plus, a ton of Latin American, halal and Carribean food options scattered throughout the neighborhood and into the surrounding areas. I found it surprising that Chinstown didn't crack the top 10. I guess livability is a major factor in the ranking. The tenements prove that much at least. Still, the food scene alone makes my mouth water whenever I hit up somewhere I haven't gone to before. You and Marco Lombardi put me on for my own $20 challenges. Plus, the overall location of half of the subway lines going through the area makes it so that I don't have to take more than 2 trains to get practicslly anywhere in the city. Then there is Astoria. Steinway St alone might contain the best strip of nightlife in Queens. Shisha lounge central and Queens hipster galore, amiright? Plus, it's a mini Jackson Heights ranging with options from all these countries 🇬🇷🇪🇬🇧🇩🇧🇷🇱🇧🇧🇦🇪🇹🇲🇽🇯🇲🇮🇹🇯🇵🇨🇴, to name a few. The food selection, number of parks, and housing compared to what you would get in Manhattan is stellar. Despite LaGuardia being nearby, I consider that a positive if I'm trying to fly out of there. Plus I'm probably biased because I went to high school there. Still, a pretty great list overall and I hope you intend on making a part 2 sometime in the future

Pretty solid ranking, as someone who lived in Chinatown I agree with your overall pros and cons but would still rank it higher than some other neighborhoods (much safer than Harlem for a similar price, way cheaper and more well connected to most of Manhattan than UWS, way more culturally distinct and vibrant than Midtown, much less busy and noisy than East Village although at that point I think personal preference is the decider between those two neighborhoods)

Every year I come back to New York in the end of october. So I'll be in town in just under 2 weeks. I have stayed in the financial district for the past 6 years. I think that it is wonderful, if you want to get away from all of the huge crowds of tourist on their first time I think it is a good place to stay. It's very easy to either take a walk across the Brooklyn bridge or take the ferry over to Brooklyn which I highly recommend and I think that it's a must. I believe that the area is just super beautiful and it's very easy to get to everything you want to whether you're a first-timer or it is a return visit.

Also, the Upper West Side is one of the best and most "NYC" feeling neighborhoods. Amazing architecture, history, and people. It's where the majority of movies have been filmed in NYC, and where the most celebrities choose to live.

In this video Jon explains the best and the worst parts of living in NYC, but the majority of the places he talks about, by large is Manhattan, but the majority of people can't afford to live there,and 2nd he mentioned a couple of places in BROOKLYN, which I don't care for, and 3rd he mentioned only two places, ASTORIA, which I don't care for because it has very limited subway service and JACKSON HEIGHTS, near all subway lines at 74th street at BROADWAY AND ROOSEVELT AVENUE, but I have lived in ELMHURST for over 35 years, very quiet, clean, and a large diversity of people but the majority of my working experience has been in MANHATTAN, and I don't like noise, drugs, crowds, people in general but I like to be near shops, and restaurants, but I am very picky where I go, and I don't care for late night people either, and I don't like a lot of noise, but my father once told me that IF YOU LIVE IN MANHATTAN, YOU WILL PAY MANHATTAN PRICES,and where I am from in Honolulu Hawaii, in the valley it's extremely very quiet and the people are very respectful of each other, but that's the price you pay to live in a city, but when you consider that there's 8.5 million people in NYC and 17.0 state wide,it's very understandable, as I consider NYC a MECCA of the entire world, all countries are represented here, like going to the UN,and QUEENS is very diverse in cultures and people but very interesting video.

It’s such an iconic, historic, and beautiful neighborhood rich with culture. The brownstones in Stuyvesant Heights are some of the best in the city. I make sure to visit Bedstuy every chance I get when I’m in NY. I was a bit disappointed by the neighborhood picks and Manhattan-centric they were. To me, most of my favorite NYC neighborhoods are outside of Manhattan.

@@mikeb.joseph1866 1. im from NYC 2. its just true? long island and westchester isnt NYC. also the bronx has nothing in it that tourists would want to go to. they want to go to times square, rockefeller center, empire state building, etc. not the bronx

@cruxiql The point is that NYC is NOT just Midtown Manhattan & gentrified areas of BKLYN. Believe it or not, The Bx does have good neighborhoods & places to visit & eat. Can't judge a whole borough because of 2 or 3 bad areas that are constantly highlighted by news & social media. The Bronx has the Botanical Gardens, Bronx Zoo & Little Italy just to name a few. Queens is probably the most diverse place on Earth.

@@mikeb.joseph1866 ok, and im not arguing with that. what im saying is, if you're a tourist coming for a week, you're going to want to do the MAIN things that everyone else does. not go to random places that no other tourists really go to. thats why, for example, midtown manhattan is jampakced with touritsts and none of them ever go to the bronx

So you rated Jackson Heights at 3 and left off the upper east side. You've got to be kidding.

Did I miss it or did you entirely skip Park Slope? It's like the UWS of Brooklyn, with easy access to Prospect Park and the endless brownstones. If I'm not mistaken, you live there now, no? I would easily rather live there than most of the other nabes on this list!

I picked a combo of areas that had interest to tourists + locals. Why I skipped almost all of Brownstone Brooklyn + LIC. Upper East is the one I arguably should have included that i'm getting most flak for haha.

What about Greenpoint? Or are you incorporating that into Williamsburg? The studio price for Williamsburg is a bit misleading because it actually doesn’t have that many studios except for new buildings and lofts. Way more 1 bedroom railroad style places. Whereas a lot of Manhattan neighborhoods have more studios. I think actually the average price of a 1 bedroom in Williamsburg is less than a studio.
