We also have no sales tax!

Maybe in select parts of BillyBurg, but that’s such a tiny part of Brooklyn! And even then it’s so very different. You can’t really afford to be ambiguously employed when your rent is so damn high. And I think New Yorkers in general are 1000x more ambitious than Portlanders. Also, Brooklyn is part of a real city. With diversity. And a subway system. And cool music, and an active nightlife, and fashion, and people from all over the world with billions of different lifestyles. Young people wander to Portland to retire; young people rush to New York to fulfill their dreams.

I’m currently seeing someone who lives in Greenpoint and as we were saying goodbye on Sunday he said “See? Isn’t Brooklyn nice?” to which I replied “It’s not horrible.” (I’m a native Manhattanite which means that a) I am biased by default standards of turf pride and b) I have basically never actually hung out in Bklyn before.) He responded with “Don’t worry, you’re going to end up living here someday. Just you wait and see.” So I feel like an omen has been cast upon me now. Though I guess I can see it…it’s a good place to transition from the four years of Portland life that have made me a tad too soft for the hustle and bustle of the city.

I’m vaguely proud of your response.
