We all know this place as the city that never sleeps. I recently went there and the experience was quite overwhelming due to the extreme traffic, clutter of places to go, and the massive amounts of people throughout the streets! I can say you'll never get bored there because you will always find something to do just by walking down the street. There are several places to discover and experience and shop of course! As well as some historical views like Ellis Island, the Statue of Liberty, the Empire State Building, the 9/11 Memorial and so much more!

Everyone I know says they love the city, but me I'm not so sure that I could agree, although people will always have there opinions I think it depends on the person's personality. I use to be a huge people person, now that I'm a little older it's not found quite often anymore. I started to like rural areas and places that consists of no people at all besides the ones that I am with. The point being people grow up in New York City and they just manage to get use to it somehow. My personal view on it would be understanding that people do have occupations within the city, but I guess I could say I disagree with raising a family there. I believe children need regions to play outside which in the city there is much room for all of that. There of course are some parks, but the city can be a lot to handle mentally.

While I was there it occurred to me that walking somewhere can be dangerous if alone because of pick-pocketers and the atmosphere even. There can be many strange people found and many places to get lost, but you don't want to get lost at the wrong time of the night. There's many stories about stolen wallets, phones, and more, yet so many people enjoy being in the city probably to see Times Square and all the lights lit up at night. I would say it's a place everyone wants to go to at least once in their life and some may return. Me personally, after my experience of roaming around the city I don't think I will go back just because the city is not my place to be. The city is for some people, but just not everyone.
