    I go there twice a week. Into the boroughs though. Haven’t been on Manhattan in a few years.

      So you know how absurd your comment was. MAYBE you could say what you said about parts of Manhattan, but the boroughs are entirely different. South Brooklyn you have beach front property—and varied styles of neighborhoods at that, north Brooklyn you have dense urban centers intercut with quiet, tree lined neighborhoods and clean brownstones, queens you have a lot of places that feel like you’ve left the city entirely for more dense suburban living, bronx, yeah it’s very dense urban, like Manhattan but entirely different, and then Staten Island is like an entirely different state.

      So again, I really don’t know what you mean. You can find so many different types of areas throughout the five boroughs. Yeah, you can find loud, dense and dirty areas, but you can find the exact opposite—or really almost anything.
