I was born in Mountainside NJ, with parents from NY. They transferred to LA and never looked back. I think the greatest city on earth claim is living on the past. It’s a city worth getting a taste of then moving on. There are plenty of cities like NY used to be now. Maybe not Birmingham or present day NO, but lots. In part because people copied it, in part because other cities became more populous and grew culturally. NY is really nothing more than an expensive place that is densely populated. And for the record, no one has called NY the greatest city on earth since Crocodile Dundee. It has largely been erased from people’s consciousness unless they watch 90s sitcoms.
