Simple as that.

Same thing with Cookeville to you?

I'm pretty darn conservative minus the religious stuff. NYC is great. Met my ex there and had a blast. Really enjoy visiting it. Was just there two years ago with my wife and daughter. Didn't feel unsafe. Tons to do. Amazing people watching, food, and energy. That energy can't be replicated

It is a great city, it has however went down hill. No arguing that fact.

Yeah you posted this stupid ass AI summary, then saw the actual data and shut up entirely. Why do this all over again?

I live less than a block from Central Park, you can look for yourself how much "tenement housing" is in that area and how sad people are to be there, or we can talk about Iran haha

You know they most likely have a Waffle House right?

Over the last 5 years it has steadily grown to be less attractive.

Side note I don’t live in Tennessee or NY.

So you're saying if I still want to violently pass my dinner 15 minutes after eating it and it's past 10pm, there's still somewhere to go?

Was visiting courting my ex 20 years ago. Tons of time there. See no drop off two years ago. Pop increasing and so is income.

I didn't notice a lessened quality of any visit I've had since before 5 years ago.

Go figure.

Population increase isn’t necessarily a good thing. Quality population increases would be, but that isn’t the case.

The most popular thing to do in Cookeville is to go to Cheddars

But income is increasing. How's that possible of the increase is nothing but the poor unwashed

Nope I'm done here in this thread about this

Great if you want to read the Old Testament of food menus.

You're a restaurant guy... how in the hell does a KM manage that many SKUs on a menu? It has to be a nightmare.

That's a good way to put it. I first visited when I was 12 and that energy has lived in my head rent free ever since

Yep samsies. Haven’t been in a few years but we like to go and stay in Times Square and catch several shows. We would buy a week long pass and ride the subway everywhere. Just take a taxi from the airport as trying to get a rental car into Manhattan is just a really bad idea. Walk the short distances take the subway for longer. Never had a problem.

I am sure NYC has some areas to avoid just like where I live in DFW. However as a tourist I’m not likely to ever wind up in them.

You are thinking Cheese Cake Factory. And yes that would be a nightmare. What it really means is nothing you make is good. It's just a ton of blah

My apartment is well below the city's average or median rent, I feel like I got a good deal a few years ago though. But there are apartments below that range sprinkled in most neighborhoods outside of maybe Tribeca, or the Village/SoHo but even those are near LES which is cheaper

I will never understand the obsession people have with cities they live 1000 miles away from

Same can be said for those north of the Mason-Dixon line that view all southerners as racist, redneck, uneducated hicks.
