NYC and LA are the two largest cities in the United States. New York has the most people, with a population of 8.5 million, while LA has around 4 million people. The New York metropolitan area, however, has 20.3 million people. So about 1 in 16 Americans live there. The Los Angeles metropolitan area has about 13.1 million people.
Both are cosmopolitan, world famous cities. Two cities that never seem to sleep- always hustling and bustling. Over the last century, the two cities have dominated and influenced the culture of the rest of the country. It’s like the two forget the fact that the rest of us exist. You see this on mainstream TV. Most national news and entertainment programming occurs in LA or New York, although LA has way more TH-camrs than New York.
Both are by oceans. NYC by the Atlantic Ocean, and LA by the Pacific.
Both are diverse. We’re talking people flock from all over the world to these two cities to start new lives. More than 37% of New York residents were born in another country. Nearly 40% of LA residents were born in another country. Almost half of the residents of LA are considered either Hispanic or Latino. New York has historically been the main way immigrants come to the United States. In both LA and New York, you’ll see lots of ethnic enclaves, or neighborhoods dominated by one ethnic group.
Both tend to have younger residents compared to most other cities around the United States, although LA’s a bit younger. (The median age in New York is about 35.8, while the median age in LA is about 34.6.)
It’s really freaking expensive to live in both cities, although LA is about 8.3% less expensive than New York. But it’s a lot more expensive to buy a home in LA. The median household income in both cities is similar. (LA 61,931, NYC 64,605) The unemployment rates and job growth rates are also comparable.(LA 4.2%, NYC 4.2% ) (LA 1.2% job growth, NYC 2% job growth)
Related to how expensive it is in both places, of course, is how crowded both cities are. While LA is notorious for its bad traffic, by some metrics New York’s traffic is actually worse. Here’s another surprise. If you look at the entire metro areas, LA, the city known for its sprawl that goes on for miles and miles, has a higher population density than New York. But city proper, ain’t nobody as dense as New York City. We’re talking 27,000 per square mile in NYC versus around 8,000 people per square mile in LA. The average commute time for both cities is way higher than the national average.
New Yorkers use more public transportation than LA folks BY FAR. I mean, there’s really no comparison. In LA, people own cars. They drive. In New York, over half of the households don’t own a car. 75% of Manhattan residents don’t.
Which is better? New York City or Los Angeles? Which two cities should I compare next?
And here is M.Laser's video: th-cam.com/video/p2EM8WUfMFc/w-d-xo.html
New York and Dallas
Since you've done comparing the first and second most populous cities in the country, how about comparing the third and fourth largest cities i.e. Chicago and Houston next?
Robert Polityka
Dallas vs Houston
Maybe Ottowa and Vancover for your Canadian viewers or something like Seoul and Tokyo for the Asian viewers. (I'm not Canadian or Asian btw)
dc; neither beats boston
I don't know if this bothered anyone else, but NY should be on the right side on the screen and CA on the left!!
omg yes
+exabex Not me. I believe your OCD is kicking in.
Yes lol, this was bothering me too!!
It was to bring the cities of the two respective states closer together on the screen. If they had been geographically appropriate, the cities would've been on the edges of the screen.
naw its correct
NY is straight left
“In LA, no one uses their signals in cars
In New York, no one drives a car”
I can totally agree
phillyslasher
most people still don’t drive tho because traffic is a nightmare
Plenty of people drive cars, I do
You see a lot if cars and a lot of people, id say its equal, id rather walk everywhere in nyc than in new york
@@boygenius538_8 Yeah, they are called taxi drivers
In NYC you can go anywhere either using a car or using the metro so it depends of what you want
It's no lie that NYC has several ethnic enclaves. In fact studies have been done of exactly how many languages are spoken in NYC...they have shown that over SIX HUNDRED are spoken there. Making it the most linguistically diverse urban center in the world. NYC really is polyglot heaven
nonsense, some cities in India will exceed that
@@jessenthebenezer shut up and stop being over proud Indian. It’s pathetic!
@@jessenthebenezer you'd probably also find all the languages in those Indian cities in NY.
I take the subway and typically in just one day I'll walk past people speaking Haitian creole, a Muslim holding a Quran in Arabic, a man reading a newspaper in Chinese and hearing people speak plenty of Spanish. It really is a little bit of everything.
Disagree. The percentage of English monolingual speakers in nyc is higher than la.
I think it's important to note that when people think of NYC they usually only think of Manhattan, that being loud, busy, intense, and fast moving. Keep in mind that it's only a fifth of the city, as the other boroughs are much more chill compared to Manhattan.
Staten Island is the opposite of Manhattan.
And really the loud busy part is around midtown
@@kirancox6123 that’s cause midtown has the most tourism: Times Square, the Empire State Building, herald square, and Central Park.
@@SYDAirlineEnthusiast Yeah ik the rest isn’t nearly as busy
@@kirancox6123 only other place that gets as busy would be battery park and the part around the one World Trade Center
I man from LA walked into our coffee shop in NY and asked “how can you tell i’m not from here[Manhattan]?” We all smirked and said “you’re too happy.”
That's way Dark New York City needs to be nuked ASAP
So like am i going to find my place in this fun hell of yours or am i supposed to go for shitty heaven?
This comment is more underrated than people think

LA definitely sleeps.. retail opens at 10am, coffee shops close at 4pm and bars are only busy thurs-sat
right lol
But sleep is important and we value a sustainable life in LA.
@@lalainenash2006 that sounds boring to me
True. Not enough 24 hour restaurants and stuff. But there is underground stuff always going on, like afterhours stuff till 6am

Both states are amazing in their own way. I drove into California, and the redwoods were majestic! However, there’s nothing quite like walking through NY. Both have awesome things to do. - unbiased person from Oregon
Because NYC is hyped. Go to LA and ask for anything, they will ask you what kind do you want coz there are so many options.
@@lalainenash2006 Damn did your boyfriend get his ass handed to him in NYC or something? Lmao because you seem to be heavily pressed over the fact that some people prefer NYC (the more iconic city with more things to do) over LA judging by the amount of negative comments you have towards NYC. And I thought you guys were more "chilled" than us.
@@jimmyj5703 Fuck you Jimmy j! He is my husband now and you can eat your heart out! Enjoy rats in NYC!

Period

i think all states can say that’d
where else can you wrestle an alligator and go to the beach ?
New York in the East, LA in the West, Chicago the forgotten middle child
Houston is closing in on Chicago's 3rd place spot.
yes we need to mention chicago, some great landscape there too
@@1rockcrawford not metro area wise and that is more important considering the fact that if u don’t measure like that it says Miami and Atlanta are smaller than Memphis
But westside is the state of real G
@@1rockcrawford keep dreaming clown LMFAO.
I had an old friend tell me the difference between these two great cities: In NYC, you can be ugly as sin, but if you have a million dollars, you'll go far. In Los Angeles, you can be broke as hell, but if you LOOK like a million dollars, you'll go far.
Wall street in NYC and Hollywood in LA are major contributors to this.
I've lived in both cities. I prefer NY, but I love LA. They are both great cities full of great food, great culture, and great people. We're lucky to have two amazingly dynamic metropolises in our country. They are both capitals in their own ways, but the bottom line for me is this: No matter I am in the whole world, an inner voice constantly reminds me, when you're out of NY, you're outta town...that is really just the way it is. Everywhere else is like life in the past. NY is the human experience played forward.
💯
Tokyo laughs
NYC seems a lot more like a European city - high taxes, excellent public transit, barely anyone drives, nice food, while LA is what we imagine the US to be as a whole here in Europe.
just with a lot more modern buildings and skyscrapers
mostly because New York is an older city while LA is new
Excellent public transit?
Teardrop Bfb compared to the rest of the country
Exelent transportation? Harldly lol
me living in a small town in northern italy: **watching this video of 2 cities more than 10.000 km away**
I'm watching this video from Turkey and its more far away than 10.000km in order to arrive Nyc and La
@@basakgu feel u lol
You should come and visit the two when the pandemic is over! 😂
I love to spend an amount of time in a small town in northern Italy 😍(this is on my bucket list)
@@Mehib98 MMMMHHH, its kinda good
I would love to see a longer version of this.
I love both cities for different reasons. I love that NYC is walkable. LA is very spread out. I love all 4 seasons NYC has but LA’s beaches & mountains are beautiful. The food is great in both places. I also love the fast pace NYC lifestyle, and sometimes LA’s laid back lifestyle. If I had to choose between the two, Id chose NYC.
Nyc has beaches too. Coney Island pier is way better than the Santa Monica pier.
Why isn't NY on the right side of the screen and Cali on the Left respecting their points on the US map
Because Mr. Beat wanted to make this video more confusing than it needs to be.
@@firebolt100 lol
DON’T CALL US CALI...It's California. The only people who call it “Cali” aren’t from California. May be you think your being trendy or cool by using Cali instead. Don't call us Cali and I won't refer to your state as 'Yorkie' or 'Minny' or ' Washy' or 'Texy'.
@@gracefulvintage As a science teacher who was born and raised in 'the golden state', I can tell you with confidence that many of us say that we live in 'Cali'. Nicknaming a region is not a new concept, Miss Vintage.
Thanks to you, I now have new nicknames for 4 other states.
Sending lots of love from 'SoCal!'
gracefulvintage That really doesn’t make you guys different from us.Some of us New Yorker’s don’t like to be called “The City That Never Sleeps” or “The Big Apple”,Most of those really great buildings are literally just in manhattan and times square.NY transportation is literally the worst transportation in the U.S but it’s not that bad with all the RATS running on the tracks.Even though we have 5 cities it’s still complicated.
Btw not a single person in nyc cares or follows the no public smoking law
I’ve lived here all my life and never knew that was a thing
Fastboy478 lmao
That's a thing in nyc?
@@mashedtomato2079 can smoke on the street but not indoors or in any public parks, beaches, city pools, stadiums, etc..

New York weather is so bipolar we could experience all the seasons in one day😅
facts except this year, it was just fucking cold
Right now In New York it is 55 degrees in June lol
Chicago weather makes New York seem tame dawg
This winter had very little snow.
Lol I totally agree
As a European I am absolutely for NY because you can actually walk from place to place and still have functional legs after.
Ikr? And there Starbucks and Dunkin Donuts across the street from each other in NYC. It doesn't get much better than that.
GileIgnj best very real point made
Makes sense. As a NYer, I enjoy European cities much more than I do L.A. because I like walking and bicycling. Honestly, D.C. up to New England is the best part of the coutnry. Honorable mention to Chicago.
Minnesota tops all of that but don't tell anybody, just check out best places to live and keep it to yourself

When I was a kid if I heard New York I would say America. But when I heard of Los Angeles I remember the SAN ANDREAS QUAKE the movie...
I'm an LA fan myself. But I very much envy the transit and bustling pedestrian spaces of NYC. Preferences make life interesting!
Cali has better weather and is more beautiful... NY has better energy and culture... if i could i would sleep in LA and travel to NY everyday lol
one good thing about living in LA you can always go to Las vegas if you like o Gamble. your near the sin city.
Well put. Im from socal and I prefer nyc over la for the vibe. Too bad i am not a fan of cold weather.
Gaurav Tapaskar With these gas prices you might as well buy a ticket to new york city dude
New York has cold winter and hot, humid summers. But you can't beat autumn in New York--or any part of the Northeast. It's beautiful. For that alone, I'd say New York has better weather.
@@PerthTowne its nice to experience all 4 seasons if thats what u mean. But if i could pick i would rather live in cali weather... after a while winter becomes too much... honestly new york is great to be in i would day may-december... October-December mainly for the holidays... it kinda distracts you from how cold it can get... but i would say the worst weather in new york is from January through March
I’d say New York is more “iconic”, due to how prevalent it is in pop culture. I could probably name like 20 movies off the top of my head that take place there. LA is literally where the movie industry is, and they have their fair share of spotlight too. LA also gets way more hate in my experience, but New York has its downsides.
so a statue is more iconic than literally all the entertainment you’ve ever watched that comes from LA
@@holy_nutsacksmd2492 yes because that's the standard for "iconic"
The studio set is not worldwide famous, it's what the movie portrays.
@@holy_nutsacksmd2492
I mean probably. That statue is usually one of the first images to pop into people's heads when you talk about America.

I have visited both cities and prefer LA because of the weather, the chill vibe and scenic beauty..

@Kal El chicago is a shithole
@@CALI-ll7iv Agreed. And I've lived here my whole life. (23 years)
CALI 420 + Evan Bakerlll then leave! Chicago is better to live than New York or LA any day!
NinbendoTV that’s a matter of opinion I guess.
Nyc is a walking city. Everything you could ever need to live is in walking distance. LA is a driving city. You kind of need a car to get around. I personally love nyc a lot better because of the architecture
Don't drive, lived fine in LA for two weeks. Grab a bus lol
as a European I have to disagree. You can't walk all over NY it's way too big and crowded. Sure at the level of the US, NY is a walking city but from my pov it's really not or you end up with blisters all over your feet.
Plus you get to have fun sitting in traffic for four hours in LA
Love NYC
But L.A. has huge traffic tho
LA does NOT have a wet season. We’ll experience an earthquake way more than a wet season.
*Edit: like the 2 earthquakes that came back to back we had 2 days ago*
Correct! If it rains in LA people hide and scared to drive! Seriously our ER is empty only when there is an LA Lakers game or if it is raining!
After going to La so many times and after being to NY for the first time. NY is definitely a way more entertaining place to visit. Especially if you like the nightlife. Everything closes early in LA. NY literally never sleeps.
Plus there's so much variety! LES concert venues, clubs in Chelsea, E/W Village speakeasies, and block parties in Brooklyn and the Bronx. Can't get that anywhere else.
One reason for that is LA does not permit alcohol sales after 2am. That's probably going to change in a couple years, to 4am.
That's BS. I don't know about LA but NY sleeps. It's a city that sleeps pretty damn early, actually. I'm not from the US so it may factor into this but I've been here the past year, it's ridiculous how quickly everything closes.
@@ThejusRao where tf where you Staten Island ? 🤣🤣🤣 you’re just talking bs. Literally was there 2 weeks ago and we didn’t get home till 6am because everything was still open
@@bigslime2235 Brooklyn. I frequently have work in Manhattan as well. City's dead very early into the night, you'll find something to do it you REALLY want to. As you tourist, I'm guessing you really wanted to occupy your time and experience NY nightlife so you chanced upon some places open late. Those places are few and far in-between.
"When it's 95 degrees and 95 percent humidity in New York, it's 78 in L.A.
When it's 34 degrees and sleet in New York, it's 78 in L.A.
There are two million interesting people in New York.
78 in L.A."
-Neil Simon, playwright...
kitano0 this accurately describes us
honestly when it's 95 degrees and 95% humidity in New York, its 100 degrees with 0% humidity in LA.
kitano0 Most people in New York live and work inside so air temperature and snow aren’t very big factors. However in LA there are earthquakes and there’s no way of escaping them unless you’re in an airplane.
That's not 100% accurate but overall, yeah. LA does get hot (above 85) and occasionally humid in the summer and early fall and it can get cold at night during winter (lows in the 40s). But NYC really only has a couple months a year where the weather is nice and comfortable (late spring, early summer). Peak summer is too hot and humid, fall gets cold and dark quickly and is really cloudy, rainy, and windy, winter to early spring is too cold and snowy. And unlike LA, most people have to get around on foot (or bike), so most can't escape it in a car.
that's like asking; which is best, eating cow shit or horse shit?
NYC: loud city covered in beitiful tall skyscrapers
LA: chill city displaying stunning sunsets and beaches
Oti Jeremiah false you gotta go to upstate ny
Nah but the people of Ny are definitely more chill and their demeanor is fr more real
@@emilylinter1862 they are too greedy and salty
Abraham Barajas they are not salty nor greedy they are straight up, cant handle that sweetie? Then stay in cali where everybody lies to your face with their fake persona and ass.
Oti Jeremiah you clearly have not seen all of NY. Ny all has Niagara falls, lake George and other beautiful attractions in which you wouldn’t know because you stereotype that NY is just a city.
I live in LA but have been to NYC a few times. Its hard to say which i prefer as both cities have their charms. i'd say NYC esp Manhattan is more vibrant and really makes you feel alive, its also super expensive. LA is my home so theres that, we have great weather year round but in my part the San Fernando Valley it does get hot in the summer.
Mr. Beat: The city so nice, they named it twice
Moto Moto: *Finally, a worthy opponent! Our battle will be legendary!*
"So about 1 in 16 Americans live there" Me, living in the NY metro: *THERE I AM, GARY, THERE I AM!* ...while NYC is a transit city, that doesn't change the fact traffic is very much still a problem here, good luck trying to get into the Lincoln Tunnel or anywhere east on Long Island on the LIE. Also, if you count the mountains in neighboring NJ or in Rockland County then yes, we do have mountains
NY has The MET. One of the best museums in the world.
I love that museum, I have to agree on that and I'm an Angeleno.
I have to agree with this! Been there 4 times in the almost 2 years I lived there and I can never get tired of it

NYC or LA? Well, I'm stuck in traffic while watching this video. Guess where I am?
Yeah, Boston...
@ReturnoftheBrotha but Boston still has terrible traffic
@ReturnoftheBrotha But a portion was on traffic, this remark was made on Boston's traffic, as the OP was comparing traffic in Boston to that of LA and NYC.
@ReturnoftheBrotha most Americans, it's where the county started, it is home to some of the best universities in the world, it is one of the most historic cities in the US. Shortened: if you look at Boston's tourism numbers, you will see that many people care about Boston. In fact, I would say that if Boston burned to the ground, more people would be sad than if LA burned to the ground.
@ReturnoftheBrotha I don't live in Boston or Philadelphia, and I wouldn't consider Boston a big city as it's metro population is
@ReturnoftheBrotha This is incorrect on many levels. First of all, I would like to make my tier list for cities. Metro areas of 5 million+ is first tier. Metro area 3-4.99 million is second tier. Metro area 1-2.99 million 3rd tier. This would be the most commonly used tier chart when talking about a big city's metro area. Secondly, I said that Philly has a *similar* metro population to Houston. This is true. As of the 2018 estimation, Houston had ~6.8 million in it's metro, while Philly had ~6.1 million in it's metro. This means that they have similar metro populations relatively speaking. This would make Philly a first tier metro. As of the 2018 estimation, Boston had ~4.8 million. This would make it a second tier city. Learn maths you uncooked piece of ravioli. Source: US Census Bureau.

Born and raised in Brooklyn moved to LA, they’re not comparable both are extraordinary simply because of community . for example Leimert Park is so culturally impactful and has changed my life tremendously, I think the comparisons do a disservice. There’s magic in both places and that’s the only way we should every try to compare.
I grew up in New York and have lived in Los Angeles for many years. You can't compare the two. They are two very different cities with different cultures, attitudes, weather, and layout. You could compare the crime, but that's about it.

I have visited both. And being from the east-coast I would say that when it comes to the people, NYC seem way more down to earth, while LA seems a bit more superficial. NYC skyline is definitely awesome but LA does have the best "always sunny" and mostly warm weather and they have palm trees lol. I would say for touring and visiting, NYC wins hands down. But if I had to choose one to live in...I would have to go with LA cause I like palm trees haha.

As someone in aviation who looks at maps a lot, love learning this kind of geography stuff 😅
As a born and raised New Yorker, so happy and proud to call it home, but have contemplated a move to LA, only thing is I have a license, but rarely do, so uncomfortable driving, of course could all change. Also work in showbiz too, so would make sense lol, I'd do it for sunny weather, laid back vibe, beaches, nature, and changes of pace.
La will give you cancer!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Your video is driving me crazy. Why did you put all NYC graphics on left side of screen and LA on right side. THEY ARE BACKWARDS!!!!!!!!!!!!
He's doing that to put the bigger city by population first, as most comparisons would. That's why. It did kind of annoy me too though and I'm from New York State.
Chill.
Fun fact, Tupac represented the West Coast, but was born in the East Coast (East Harlem, New York to be precise).
Its call selling out.
Yeah, and do you know why? Because he was shot in NY, and he thought they selled him out, so he rep the West
Captain Jack Sparrow Exactly
Captain Jack Sparrow nah, he took the money and ran (sold out) and was assasinated west coast style.
voltronsupreme Yep he only sold out from getting shot in his own city right?
Can we get an update video please?? Are they any major differences now (2024) compared to (2018)?
NYC,of course.

Janeah Lim EXACTLY , COULDNT HAVE SAID IT ANY BETTER!!!!!!!
Janeah Lim agreed
never been to both cities but from all the info ive heard about them.. i get what youre saying lol
That’s because LA people are usually privileged New York people still on the grind that’s why it’s called the city that never sleeps
That’s what makes NY better!
Haven't lived in either place, but have spent a lot of time in both. I have always enjoyed my time in both cities, but if I had to pick one, I'd go with NYC. I enjoy the hustle and grittiness of NYC. The best pizza is in NYC. Skating in Rockefeller Center or Central Park, the Met, catching a show on Broadway, going to the top of the Empire State Building, plus the amazing and super convenient public transportation.
I love LA and NYC.They are both so diverse and urban,it’s hard not to like it as a person in an urban city.But I’ve never left Asia,and I’ve only been to 3 countries.
There are so many hispanics and Asians. I moved from Central Ohio to LA in August 2022 and in Ohio there were White and Black with a sprinkle of Asian nothing else but here theres white, Black, Hispanic, Mexican, Asian and surpriseingly Indians

I live in La and I LOVE visiting New York, it’s a more fast paced life style and there’s always something going on around every corner. It was fun taking the public transit to get around, but I can’t see myself wanting to live there over LA. If you’re going to visit a place, definitely go to New York, you’ll have way more fun. If you want a busy and hectic and face paced life style, go to New York. If you want a relaxed life style with traffic, choose LA.
Relaxed lifestyle and traffic don’t mix. LA has too many fake people and smog anyway
The New Yorker was way more hyped about NYC then the Los Angeles people
Correct! NYC over-promises but underperform.
New York City is the most diverse place on the planet and has every ethnicity in it
So does LA
Thank you 💙

Born and Raised in Los Angels, But Ever since I moved to NYC for College, I’ve stayed and Prefer NYC, plus Whenever Winter arrives, I Get excited for the snow since I grew up never Witnessing it. I now live in Brooklyn, Williamsburg and life’s great, Still love my hometown
TheAmzing KIDD I would love to visit the states
Same. Was raised in L.A. and never saw snow. Now I get so excited for the first snow in NYC.
@@james03pearce never leave Williamsburg. Some parts of Brooklyn have crackheads and hookers taking liquid explosives sh*ts on trees in the middle of a Wednesday afternoon like it ain't nobody's business. I have seen some crazy stuff while working all of Brooklyn and Manhattan.
matthew andrade u got any plans on leaving?
@@james03pearce Well I just bought a house on Long Island and commute to Manhattan and Brooklyn.
I've lived in LA my whole life (over 25 years), and I love it. The people get a bad rep as being shallow and neo-hippyish, and those people exist, but we have regular ass people too. I learned to enjoy the strengths of the city-- beach, mountains, night-life, concerts, events, access to legal weed and other extracurriculars. I go out several times a week and often see incredible DJs that I'm a fan of. The weaknesses of LA are obvious-- the homeless problem has grown exponentially in like the last 5 years, with tent cities occupying some sidewalks; human s**t on the ground or smeared on to things; and yeah, the public transportation isn't great. Overall though, I'm having a great time, but don't want to stay here forever.
As a natural born LA boy, I find that for some weird reason everyone feels the need to compare our city to somewhere else. Honestly I can tell you, we can give a rat's ass about that. We're too busy enjoying where we live.
People in L.A. are cool, relaxed and not that stressed. That’s what I felt like living there. But indeed L.A. needs a better public transit and they are working on it, they are expanding the subway 🚇 and the bus lines (I saw signs that say they are)
Another shocking thing is that Los Angeles has a really bad homelessness problem. I was very shocked and to see Skid Row, WOW! I never thought anything like that existed in the US! It’s so bad you’d have to see it to believe it.
But I still love LA! The weather, the beaches, the mountains too, the people 😊 Starting the day with a hike at Griffith Park and then going to the beach later in the day when you’re done with work or errands is just lovely
I love NYC more, but New York has some pretty dense population of homeless people. I see them everyday. Been living here for 12 years.
the one reason I don't like how relaxed people are there is bc laziness is not fun. I live in Florida at and it bothers me having to wait for days for my professors to reply to my emails. my mom was a teacher and guidance counselor in new Jersey and she said that the school faculty would respond right away. la is cool for it's film making history.
that's the difference. in all major west coast cities, homeless people are cordoned off into tent cities. in the big east coast cities, homeless find their own way and aren't usually together except at homeless shelters.
NYC has 50,000 homeless children alone. stop playing on the internet.
@@noon4576 you're joking right? Have you ever heard of skid row? Largest homeless population in north america and a disgusting dump
as someone who’s visited both, New York seems to have more down to earth, friendly people. The architecture and vibe of the city is also a lot nicer than LA.
People in LA are just tryna get famous, in New York people are trying to get rich or start a new life.
i haven't been in any of these cities but i feel like la is just a one big highschool with people of various ages and ny is just people living their lifes
People in LA just want to get famous and make money, plus it’s overpopulated. New York is chill, especially in the night
Galaxy L you obviously were born in New York because it does not look chill
Although ive never been to new york i think i can agree they might have the better people. Ppl in LA are mostly stuck up
Do you have a video for NY vs NJ?
Can you compare Los Angeles And San Francisco? Or SoCal vs NorCal?
I'm and East coaster that loves LA. I've seen a lot of West coasters that love NYC.
I'm a San Franciscan but I'd rather live in NYC than LA, for sure. It's just not efficient to live in LA when you're spending so much time just getting to the gym, grocery store, beach...
I live like 30 mins away from LA. I love California and I love LA, but I would never shit on NYC. You guys are cool too.
La is best new york is filled with rats
I visited both cities and i prefer New York. Much more interesting and energetic. Many museums and parks.
Los Angeles is ugly filled with poverty illegals and homelessness.
New York has Broadway and way more museums, many of them world class.
Philip Gior really no one asked or cares
dude in LA theres always someone famous walking down the street like literally
Random Edits in New York as well, but they blend in pretty easily. People are always spotted in Soho, and there are sprinkles of people who live around Brooklyn.
Lin Vloger well I mean New York is bigger than LA 💀.
@@sabre7212 People watched this video to learn about both cities and how they compare. He made a statement about NYC. I think he made a decent contribution.
Honestly, I like how it’s more spacious in L.A than in NY. All those tall buildings in NY would get me dizzy and a little fatigued like how it did in this vid.
That’s only Manhattan I hate how people think that’s the only part of the city
As a born and raised Angeleno I absolutely loved NYC when I visited last year but couldn't picture myself moving there since it gets cold in the winter

Both are beautiful & creative cities
But I would choose NY over LA
Sorry LA
Im from Europe but If I had to choose between LA and NYC, I would live in LA because of weather and chill. People in NYC seem always in hurry and stress..
Correct! My husband from England ends up 2 months in ICU because he was hit by a big track! That ends his NYC life, move to LA, and never went back.
@Ford Mustang 2022 I live in a good neighborhood in LA. Maybe your cousin lives in a Ghetto. Open your mouth once you get here in the USA. Try to go first on the West Coast here in California and you will be disappointed in NYC. New York is like a dirtier version of Paris x 2. More educated? Have you heard about Big Bang Theory? They are based on the lifestyles of scientists based here in Los Angeles. Caltech in Pasadena to be exact!
@@lalainenash2006 yessir
As a European you'd find LA sooo BORING. There is no downtown or historic district, it's just a huge hellish suburb of gas stations and drive thru coffee shops. It takes a car ride to do ANYTHING

If I have to go back to big city living, it's going to be LA because that's my hometown. But, being born, and raised there might make me a bit biased. For me, having space is a major part of my decision. I also don't like people all that much. This is why I left LA four years ago to live in Central California. LA has more space and less people. It also has more of the people I DO love and care about living there such as family members and my bff's. I also love Disneyland, and the California coast, both of which are in driving distance in LA. So, for me, there's more incentive to be in LA. New York is alright for visiting, though I think outside the city in upstate is by far more preferable for a nature lover for me. But New York does have some nice live entertainment venues, I mean Broadway musicals are awesome! They have some great US history to be visited as well. But I never want to live there. Traffic may frustrate the hell out of me, but I'm grateful to drive places in my car. I love having a yard. I love California's hills, and mountains. And you can drive to so many places from LA. You can visit SEVERAL different landscapes all in one day on LA. You can start in suburbia, go to the beach, the desert, the woods, the mountains, etc. all in one day. You also forgot to mention some of our tourist destinations, such as The La Brea Tar Pits, Hollywood Bowl, Magic Mountain, Knott's Berry Farm, Sea World, Legoland, Anime Expo, The Getty Center, Aquarium of The Pacific, Los Angeles Zoo, Long Beach, and Disney Concert Hall. There's lots more too. And we're in driving distance of Sequoia National Park which has some of the oldest, and tallest trees in the world. And Vegas is also within driving distance. Sorry, I just love my hometown. Won't go back to living there, like I said. I want to go more rural, and have property and space, but if I HAD to live back in a big city, LA is my pick.
Never been to LA but i go to NYC all the time for work and just to visit. Besides finding a place to park NYC is an amazing place to visit. there is always something to do or see and is surprisingly clean for a big city.

As a CA transplant to NY 5 years ago, I moved because I wanted to see snow (I don't have to shovel), I don't have to drive or own a car anymore ($1500/month expense), walkable+bikeable, a functional 24h transit system, great food, the arts.
Rent is cheaper in Manhattan than SF where I left.
And I'm closer to Europe for occasional getaways.

@@1rockcrawford To be fair no other city in the country has nearly as much innovation and beauty to it. San Jose is pretty close tho
@@pranav4937 SF is far from the most beautiful city in the country lmao
Did you live your whole life in the Bay Area just to move to another big city area? Wow... I'm speechless because California has mountains with snow...
@@badcornflakes6374 from my personal experience, I'd have to say that's true, but you have to drive a few hours to get to them. As well as that, getting snow in your hometown feels much different than getting it in a place that already has it where you have to travel to. I live in Rome, Italy at the moment. I have lived here for 3 years and I have never seen snow here. I could go to the nearby mountains to get snow but it wouldn't have anywhere near the same feeling.
I am from Saudi and I dealt with both people workwise. NYC people are direct and punctual which I like while LA people are laid back and fun to work with yet its not always good for the business. I still love both cities and Americans in general.
Not gonna lie, when I first hit play and heard Mr. Beat's voice, I thought "When did Brad Colbow start doing things other than drawing tablet reviews?"
I will give my opinion as a foreigner: I will summarize in a few words, both cities are beautiful but the best city in the USA is New York, however the best state is CALIFORNIA.

Uh, no!
In LA you can do more... City, beaches, mountains, and space.... New York you get CITY, it's a really good city, maybe the best, but city is all you get. =)
Rob Weissman NYC is very loud and your eyes don’t get to see spaces. Too much buildings.
You could go upstate or out to Long Island to get away from the city for a while 🤷🏽♀️
Rob Weissman We also have beaches.
We have space. ever heard of central Park? We have beaches there is Coney Island and Jones beach. Also the Berkshire mountains are an hour train ride out of the city.
Theawesomechannel... Ok, I always thought Central Park's intention was sort of a consolation for being cooped up in a city. I'm more familiar with Coney Islands amusement park rather then it's beach (how many months a year does is it beach or amusement park weather there?), not too familiar with Jones beach, I wonder how it compares to the LA's that stretches from Long Beach to Malibu?
Also, you got me, can't really talk about the Berkshire Mountains, haven't heard too much about them so I don't know how THEY compare to the San Gabriel, Santa Ana, Santa Monica, or a bit further the Sierra Nevada's...
Look, I would never say that the Hollywood sign is as cool as the Statue of Liberty. Though someone might say that just to argue everything is better in one city then another, I won't....... NYC has got some awesome stuff, and I already stated that as a CITY it's the best. But I don't think it's geography is as, um, diversely striking, as SoCal. (yes I know there are wildfires, mud slides, and earthquakes and stuff, but LA's still got more to offer :-)
Hey, Mr. Beat. You forgot to mention that New York City celebrates New Year's Eve at Times Square. You can see the glass ball drop when we countdown to the new year.
