[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]fairly anecdotal, but i have pretty strong evidence with one recent grad and one senior in college. One ivy, one non-ivy T20. One econ major one hard science, both targeted consulting gigs/internships. They tell old mom that everyone wants to be in gotham, and even Bain is a bit of a letdown if you are placed in Austin. Rents / bars steer these kids to the East Village or lower East Side apparently. As a lifetime DMVer, I just don’t see the allure of NYC - but keep me in check, does just about every kid want to live/work there?[/quote] Perceived status and decades of 'greatest city in the world' media propaganda. For NYC to survive it needs hundreds of thousands of new gullible spendthrift kids moving there every single year and paying $3,000+ rent for a shoe box apt. It chews up and spits out young professionals and needs to replace them with new gullible kids.[/quote]
