Why Would Anyone Live in NYC?

The video highlights the unique aspects of living in New York City, starting with the daily ritual of driving kids to school, an "indulgence" despite public transport being faster. The speaker notes the "stupidity" of owning a car in NYC due to excellent public transport, lack of parking, and expensive garages where cars are stacked. Jordan, a car parker, is introduced. He's from the Dominican Republic and has a side hustle as a mobile car detailer, having built his own truck. Surprisingly, Jordan is also a Spanish-rapping musician, a dream he's actively pursuing alongside his full-time job. The video explores why people choose to live in NYC despite its challenges like crime and high taxes. The answer lies in the infectious "mission" driven energy of its inhabitants. Examples include a filmmaker who moved to NYC because it's "a movie city" and an art student from Maui seeking opportunities. The speaker also recounts a chaotic visit to Washington Square Park, describing it as "madness" with smoke and pigeons on people's heads. The video concludes with a humorous warning about small patches of grass in NYC likely serving as dog toilets.
