Both are a different crowd. Always thought of the West Side as more artsy, liberal East Side as more Wall Street and preppy. Of course these are generalizations.

UWS- better restaurants

With the exception of a few fine dining restaurants, UES is a restaurant dead zone.

Because UES/UWS is so commonly done.

I agree. I also prefer the UWS to the UES. So does everyone who matters. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z1aRg0HubHw

Exactly. I grew up on the UES and prefer it just because it's home. But as you head downtown, I guess I prefer the West Side but below 59th st I don't really think that much about east vs west.

Which "side" of Manhattan do you prefer - East or West? Note this isn't "just" the UWS and UES.

Fifth Ave. being the boundary.
