Hate About New York City

Ten Things

I Hate About New York City

  • The cost of living — “it’s sky-high here, from rent to everyday expenses.”
  • The crowded subways — “especially during rush hour, it’s a challenge.””
  • The noise — “sirens, people, traffic; it never stops.””
  • The harsh winters — “freezing temperatures and slush-filled streets.””
  • Trash on the sidewalks — “especially noticeable on garbage day.””
  • Tourist crowds — “that can make major areas like Times Square impassable.””
  • Tiny apartments –“for astronomical prices, space is a luxury here.””
  • Pollution — “the air quality can be a concern in such a bustling city.””
  • The pace of life — “it’s fast and furious, not for the faint of heart.””
  • Limited access to nature — “green spaces are few and far between outside of parks.”
