Seattle vs. NYC

Posted by Drew

A Few Reasons Explaining Why Seattle Is Better Than New York:



  1. I was driving in the city the other day. You can't do that in NYC.
  2. While driving in the city, I got into a sticky situation because I got a little lost. I waved apologetically to the car that I had forced to stop, and they waved it off as if it were no big deal. In NYC, I was in a similar situation with a taxi, except the taxi driver got into a yelling contest, complete with an ungodly amount of cursing and increasingly escalating threats, with the car that had to stop and wait for us.
  3. Rain in Seattle won't burn your skin.
  4. Seattle is built on 7 hills. This creates a minimum of 7 new adventures. Sure, NYC has its boroughs, but Seattle's hills all have a personality of their own, much like the boroughs. In addition, the fact that there are so many large hills creates for some very interesting and fun city planning and zoning.
  5. Birkenstocks
  6. While walking down the street the other day, I noticed that people would look me in the eye, smile and say "hello." In NYC, you definitely don't do that.
