Where are all of my New York peeps at? This is my first video in the city in over 5 years and it's a pleasure to be back! Queens is SUCH an incredible borough and I hope that on your next trip, you will give it a shot. The food is amazing and so are the people! -- My next video is about the "Hasdic Jews of Brooklyn" and it is the single biggest production that I've ever made. Stay tuned!

One thing that people might not get from this video is that Queens is a big city on its own - it's not a neighborhood at all. There's 2.2 million people in Queens, it would be one of the biggest cities in America if it was independent. It's great that you featured it, Queens is such an awesome part of NYC and it doesn't get the attention that Manhattan or Brooklyn do.

It’s about time Queens gets this international recognition it deserves. If you’re visiting and want an experience that demonstrates how New Yorkers truly live and what NY is about, go to Queens. Immense cultural diversity, authentic food, real people including many immigrants from pretty much every country, these are some of the things that makes New York the best city in the world

I think something that should be mentioned is that Drew only scratched the surface. He had to make choices because there’s so much out there in Queens. He went with what he knew. He didn’t do the Caribbean neighborhoods, or the Crazy Asia of flushing, complete with KTV and love hotel, and 24 hour bulgogi or dumplings, or street food, or afternoon BBQ in Jamaica, or dosa at the Hindu temple, the Indonesian food in glen oaks, or even pizza. But he did jollibee and that segment is true chickenjoy. I always like the fact that there’s a human story he tries to discover. And everyone has a story here! Queens has grown to be a fascinating place and he captured some of it. 👍

I used to live in Jackson Heights from birth up to 2010, then I lived in Elmhurst, about two subway stations away from Jackson Heights. Growing up with Nepalese parents, we used to walk a half hour for groceries each way because we always shopped South Asian. I had to move out of NYC in 2016 and today I live in PA. I still visit NYC whenever possible, but I miss living there. Jackson Heights brings me childhood nostalgia.

I was born in Manhattan but raised in Queens in an Italian-American family. In contrast, my wife was born and raised in Iowa farm country in a Norwegian-German household. Our experiences as kids could not have been more different. After 30+ years of visiting small town Iowa, i have come to appreciate the many rich cultural experiences....and the food that goes with it.... that living in Queens served up while growing up there.. From a distance, small town living might seem quaint or romantic but, close up, the pressure to conform and the "sameness" that pervades small town life is much too suffocating. That's one of Queens greatest strengths....an seemingly endless supply of unique characters that can be found in its many neighborhoods. The actor Caroll O'Connor (who went to my HS) in his iconic portrayal of Archie Bunker, draws from that experience. And now the best place to get Chinese food in all of NYC!

My 1st visit to NYC I stayed in Queens and had a local take me on an all day tour. I've been in love ever since and it will always be a home away from home for me!! Queens is amazing ❤

I live in a nearby place on Long Island (only like 20 minutes away from Queens), and I can confirm that queens is really cool how many different people and cultures there are here. I remember a few months ago going to a street underneath a train (like this at 5:11) and there were so many flags and restaurants everywhere (as a flag nerd i thought it was one of the coolest places ever)

You hit all the Queens hoods I love! I live in BK but I go to Astoria & Jackson Hts a lot and lived in JH for a couple years as kid. My parents live out in NE Queens and I spent some time there also so I love hitting the Korean & Chinese spots in Flushing and a little bit east of there like in Bayside & Little Neck. Queens has the best food in all the boroughs. Terrific episode!👍

As someone whose family immigrated to Jackson Heights in the 70s, thank you so much for showing the culture and diversity of Queens. It's important that people know that NYC is much more than the Empire State Building & Radio City. Thank you for continuing to inspire, Drew!

Your description was the best I have seen as you just didn't mention one of the cultures that's here in Jackson heights. I was born and raised in Queens. Born in Flushing and moved to Jackson heights as a kid spent lots of time in Astoria growing up with my school's being there and father getting an apartment there after moving from Flushing. I also lived briefly in woodside and have my mother in law living there too. This video is so accurate except when you mentioned more suburban ( although some areas are and Jackson heights used to be more suburban with even a golf course at one time but that was way before my time ).

Great video Drew but a seriously wrong fact with Astoria - it has a greek population of about 16K, averaging 10% of the population. Melbourne, Australia has the actual largest Greek population in the world, after Athens and Thessaloniki, with a Greek community of about 400K.

I'm Filipino- American who as a teenager migrated to NJ in 1974, way before Jollibee existed in the Manila. My first taste of Jollibee was when they opened one in Jersey City , I was probably 55 years old then. I have 3 sisters that probably still have not heard of Jollibee. So when that lady said she's never had it, I believe her.
