Tech Life in New York City:

The Big Apple is home of two of the world’s largest stock market exchanges, the New York Stock Exchange and NASDAQ.  As a leading business center in the United States, there are more Fortune 500 companies with headquarters in New York than any other city. Technology is blossoming in the Big Apple as major internet conglomerates like Google move their offices into “telecom hotels” such as the 311,000 square feet office space downtown.

As in any other city there are pros and cons of living in New York City. For instance, there is so much to do, it’s easy to get around with the transit system, it’s safe, convenient, and has plenty of job opportunities. On the other hand, it can be overwhelmingly expensive, overcrowded, a bit impersonal and fast paced.

New Yorkers enjoy Central Park, multi cultural activities and food, theatre, film festivals, farmers markets, fashion and anything else they could possibly think of...it’s all there.
