About New York City

Originally founded in 1624, New York City is one of the most powerful and well known cities in the U.S. It is notorious for its big city urban environment with the largest subway system in the country and streets lined with cab drivers. It has had great influence in the world of fashion as well as worldwide commerce. If there is a state that is the heart of it all, this is definitely it.

Local residents who call the city of New York home range from aspiring actors and actresses and high class socialites to city slum dwellers in the city’s five boroughs. In fact, this city is so diverse that different areas represent both the most luxurious, high class areas in the nation and some of the worst neighborhoods in the nation.

By far the biggest attraction in the city is the Statue of Liberty. Not only do Americans consider it something that must be seen at least once in a lifetime, but it is visited every year by travelers from all over the world as well.

Other attractions center on the arts and entertainment industry with Broadway shows drawing in millions of visitors from all over the world. Visitors also enjoy visiting Times Square, the Bronx Zoo, and watching free live shows in the famous Central Park.
