Where is the center of new york?

Watching American movies and photos, you will feel that America is full of tall buildings, traffic and prosperity. In fact, high-rise buildings in the United States are concentrated in cities, and most of them are for office use. Anyone here? Live in the countryside, away from tall buildings. Take new york as an example. In such an international city, as long as it gets dark, the number of pedestrians on the road will decrease immediately. On weekends, most people who go to new york are foreign tourists. What's more, many large and small shops are closed on Sunday. Perhaps the most spectacular night market in new york is Times Square. Billboards that are lit all day and night, towering screens and colorful mercury lamps make you feel like you are alone in the sky.

There are new york City and New York State in new york, and new york City is mentioned here. New york City consists of five areas, and the real central area of new york is Manhattan, which is too big. More specifically, maybe on Wall Street? Maybe on Fifth Avenue? Maybe in this square, that commercial city? Most of the places that belong to the city center belong to international commercial and economic centers, and thousands of white-collar and blue-collar workers flock during the day. What about at night? It suddenly became a "dead" city, where only a few people would make their home. Even if they live, most of them are young people, childless couples and "old" new york people. There are too many restrictions on living in the city center. For example, the house price is expensive, the car has no place to park, the environment of public primary and secondary schools is poor, public security is chaotic, air pollution and so on. Downtown should be synonymous with convenient life, however, in the United States, this is not entirely the case.

Every time I go back to China, what I feel most warmly is the popularity of downtown China. I don't need to drive or walk far. It is convenient and safe from morning till night. In the United States, I just want to work and play in new york during the day, and at night, I can't wait to go back to the country, because the city makes me feel like I can't find my home. In China, I can't wait to live in the city center, because leaving it is like leaving a convenient "home". Every time I return to China, I am a person from the countryside.

When people at home go abroad, the biggest feeling is loneliness, and the huge source of loneliness is the sudden change of lifestyle and environment. Because most new immigrants with families, houses and children live in rural areas of the United States, the difference between rural areas and cities has little to do with busy people who work from eight to six every day. Anyway, after work, everyone goes home; Anyway, the chores to be done should be accumulated until the weekend; Anyway, the American world is basically limited to family and work, so we should wait until the weekend to go shopping, see the excitement in the city and sit in bars. Therefore, for people who don't have to work and start a business, but just come to play and visit relatives, when they come to the United States, they can only see green grass when they go out, but they can't see people and can't find the downtown area. Living in the United States is tantamount to "immigration supervision."

In fact, the urban and rural landscapes in the United States are similar. People who live in big houses in rural areas can already solve all the necessities of life in rural areas. Therefore, even if they stay on the edge of new york, they rarely enter a city. If it's not to open the eyes of foreign tourists or enjoy rare art programs, why do "country people" go to the city to join in the fun? Rural residents who work in new york on weekdays also go to work in the city. As for the downtown area of American cities, where is it? In addition to the concern of tourists, people living in it have become insensitive to this.
