Going with New York but I wouldn't mind living in either city.

[QUOTE="themajormayor"] You hate seeing hot girls all the time?themajormayor

Nowadays, you have to be careful. Some of them aren't really girls.

Where do you live??

Right now? I'm in upstate New York in the middle of Amish country not far from Canada*. Farms all around. I also have a house in Tucson and my hometown is Fallon NV. Take your pick.

* I guess we'd be considered living in the Thousand Islands area.

San Francisco is a terribad city. Never been to New York, but wouldn't want to live there either.

NYC or SF....... I've been to both places multiple times and had fun in both. Tough call. I liked the seafood better in SF though. They seemed fresher. SF it is.

Hmmm. Alcatraz..... NYC. Why do I keep thinking of Crysis 2? :lol:

That's more like it. Now, I wish I can change my vote to NYC.

New York. I have a bit of a fascination with that city, I love that it's got some real history behind it, plus I have family who live there.

SF because the weather is more moderate and I prefer the west coast. I don't think I'd enjoy living in a crowded city though.

Another coincidence..... Giants, Niners.

Being from northern Nevada, I'm a Niners fan (or Broncos). But, I kept quiet about it here in Giants country. :lol:

God I would hate to live in either. California is way to expensive to live and New York has too many people and people suck.

ranked by forbes #1 for best downtown. Chicago is superb.. pretty compact, and full of culture. I don't know why the city gets overlooked constantly, even with their near 10 million metro population.

I've heard good things about it as far as down towns go. I just personally can't stand being downtown anywhere.

Not quite. I'll be working at the National Bureau of Economic Research, as a research assistant for four professors (two at Harvard, one at Yale, one at Stanford).

I live in Queens and am moving to San Francisco in the summer for college. So... Frisco? (Just hope that I never accidentally call it Frisco there, for whatever reason residents of San Francisco hate that lol :P

San Francisco, the only downside being it's in California (which I find to be a bit backwards and highly expensive).

I've never been to New York though..

A bit "backwards?" If anything California is too ahead for its own good. I will always pick SF above any other place. I lived here for more than 10 years, and honestly living in California and especially San Francisco spoils the living crap out of you. The City is too amazing.

I didn't mean so in the sense it's not progressive, it might just be a bit too liberal for my tastes though. I do love the west coast beaches and SF itself.

Different strokes for different folks.

Ok yea, thats exactly what my comment meant. I thought you saying "backwards" was referring to how conservative it was, but I was saying perhaps its too liberal for its own good. :P

People who say San Fran, have never been to San Fran.

It's the worst place to live in ever. Too bad they both have really stupid bridge tolls.

I rather stay in Toronto, but between the two choices, I'd pick San Francisco. New York, you'll either move within a few years or you buy a house in Jersey.
