Reply to comment by Accomplished_Aim_607 in Westchester was one vote away from becoming part of NYC and Brooklyn barely made it by Furschitzengiggels
There’s no reason to go to the other outer boroughs than the one you live in.
I’m from Queens and I’ve lived in Manhattan, the Bronx, and I work in Brooklyn.
Brooklyn has a distinct culture compared to all the other boroughs. Much more homey and like it’s own small city. This makes sense given Brooklyn’s history.
New York is Manhattan, Queens, The Bronx, SI, and parts of North Jersey. These are places that are only as populated as they are because of New York City expansion. Brooklyn would have been developed as its own city without New York, and it has the character of a distinct town. All of the other surrounding areas needed NYC to develop their culture and so they all share a similar New York vibe.
