Top ten things I like about New York City

1.  The wild diversity in everything, including people, food, and the kinds of choices people make
   
   
2. Their freaking public transport system is amazing!
   
   
3. Restaurants are open 24/7, and there's always a decently-priced nearby place open!
   
   
4. The opportunity to socialize and meet new people is incomparable to anywhere else in the country, possibly the world!
   
   
5. There is more decently-priced amazing food than anywhere else in the country, and it really is one of the more affordable world-class cities to eat out
   
   
6. They still have 'legit' grocery stores that are quite decently priced so you can cook and invite people and have a 'regular person' city life, almost ignoring you're in the cultural capital of everywhere.
   
   
7. Opportunity to walk is incredible, you can get everywhere by foot, so many public parks and the like!
   
   
8. If you get lucky and/or are willing to make some compromises, there are still places that are not absurdly outrageously priced that can be lived in and potentially even bought!
   
   
9. My Tufts group is quite large there still, and there's a decent contingency of Nepalis that I know or am aware of, so I could potentially quickly expand my circle
   
   
10.  Amazing opportunities for writing, comedy, drawing any creative hobby one might be interested in exploring
