Both are amazing cities with their advantages and disadvantages. I prefer London, with it's more 'European styling', but I understand why others may prefer the sheer size of New York. Love to both
I love how dense NYC is I've walked the long side of Manhattan several times (takes a few hours of walking). NYC has nearly everything you'd want in a city tho other than history. Lots of museums, art galleries, restaurants, clubs/bars, Central park & pocket parks, rooftop spaces, event rooms, recreation/game centers... and on the transit side you've got the subway and buses (could be way better tbh), bike lanes... I'm also personally a fan of the grid. Easy to tell someone I'm on "23rd street and 7th avenue" rather than some random street name
I've lived in London I love it to bits and it's my mums favourite place bless her,but when I visited nyc last month I absolutely loved it and never loved a place like it booked again for next year,in saying that that imo London does that to others,2 great cities
Also worth mentioning that there are many places in outer London that still receive the benefits of being part of the city such as the Underground but feel like somewhere in the countryside
And London has lots of former plague pits covered in grass … eg opposite Harrod’s! As well as former royal hunting grounds - Richmond Park still has deer. The Oval cricket ground still has a little Henry VIII hunting lodge next to it.
Central Park is one well designed park, but London is great at them. London was once the greatest city on Earth before modern times, and was very nice and English. You can see some archives of it back then. The London we all want.

Central Park alone has all those things you mentioned. Clearly no actual substantive research was done. Not to mention NYC has beaches and entire inter-coastal waterways with nature preserved… perhaps you should looks at NYC parks, neighborhood parks, state parks, state preserves, etc. You don’t even mention Prospect Park for crying out loud.. which is bigger than Centra Park and also designed by Vaux & Olmsted. 😂 It’s apples to oranges. Lastly the “city of London” is a massive area where NYC is strictly the 5 boroughs. If NYC treated its boundaries like London does, it would include The Palisades, Gateway Recreational Area, Great Swamp National Refuge, and well into upstate with loads more green space. We even have an entire island dedicated to park space now with no vehicles on it (Governor’s Island). Lastly, NYC never needed heaps of green space because we have all of our state and national parks nearby with pristine preserved unspoiled nature. New Yorkers go upstate to the Catskills, Hudson River Valley, Northern NJ lakes, the Hamptons, etc. if they actually want nature. The US has so much preserved and well-loved nature that even the largest of cities don’t have to overcompensate with manmade urban parks which take up critical space. ..why would Bermuda build a massive saltwater lake in the middle of the island if it was already surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean…?
You know nothing 😂 The city of London, is often called the square mile because it is tiny. And even if you only count central london, thats still 40% compared to 29 000 acres of parks and open spaces and 17 200 acres of beaches, waterfront parks and natural areas and preserves you get 24% of land area ( all figures from the City of New York and thats including a lot of NYC that is not at all central)
And that whole second argument you make that people can just go out of the city for nature is so ignorant. Most people don't have the time or money to spend a large part of their day or weekend going to and from these places
@@Gfynbcyiokbg8710it’s an hour drive from lower manhattan to one of the nicest state parks in New York, or, as most people would do when they want a break from work, they can simply go to Central Park. Most people have money and time for both of those.
i like how europeans often make fun of americans for thinking they’re the best but literally the only time i see people thinking they’re the best is europeans😭
Nearly every nice city anywhere relies on New York in some way. It is the most important city in the world-you can look it up. It's not beautiful like London with its trees and parks, but it has everything London does, just more extreme. London has 300 languages; New York has 800, more than any city anywhere. It also has more food, more skyscrapers, more everything. Plus, it's the headquarters of the United Nations.
@@Ajokeiguess 'skyscrapers' and the 'United Nations' are negligible. New York's population has lost over 600,000 people since 2020. It has a homicide rate of around ~3 per 100,000 people -- it may not sound like a lot, but is higher than any capital on the European continent. Deploying your national guard to protect the metro system in your country's No. 1 city is unprecedented in any developed nation on the planet. New York is not livable. And livability is what makes a city great.
@@cherriepie Absolutely, new York is a hellhole with death, murder, and crime. But at the same time, It's where dreams are made, where cultures collide and create something uniquely American. Livability is important, sure, but greatness isn't just about comfort-it's about energy, diversity, and opportunity. In New York, you can either be rich and famous, or poor and homeless, a number of people know this and move in only to fail, lose their home, their mind, and their money. There is no other city anywhere in the world where people have as big of an opportunity and as big of a risk, the homelessness and crime is a direct result of its importance and size.
@@Ajokeiguess It is usually only a small number of privileged people that achieve these 'dreams' that are usually are from rich families beforehand, to imply New York is some kind of special exception in which a family in The Bronx on $20K can make it to being millionaires easily is far fetched. New York is no more socially-mobile than many capitals on the planet. I could argue Stockholm is more socially mobile than New York because Sweden's former president started out as a welder and became the president. A city full of death, murder, homelessness and crime is _not_ a good thing, and is a failure of the state.
It's all subjective. London would win hands down though on a 10,000 vote contest by people who know both cities well but not native to either imo I would bet a large sum of money on it np
@@JohnSmith-sm7ez So, London has lots of crime too. People getting stabbed and robbed out there. Infrastructure in the city is top notch. Besides the subways. That shit could use some work for sure. But in everything else high rises, bridges, tunnels, roads New York >>> London. Pollution in New York is the exact same as in London. Go look it for yourself. If you don’t believe me. Also, the MET in New York is considered to be among the top 3 museums in the world after the louvre in France and some other museum in Russia. Not to mention the MOMA is up there etc. you just don’t know shit.
@@daxtynminn3415London is definitely better than New York, London has ancient buildings history and culture and London also has the best parks in the world, and when it comes to bridges nothing compares to tower bridge, and also the tower of London which dates back to 1078, and also the British museum is the greatest museum in the world along with the Victoria and Albert museum, and St Paul's is one of the great cathedrals of the world, clearly you don't know shit because London is the greatest city in the world.
@@illyaedwards7188NYC has much more architectural diversity, and having “ancient” buildings gets dull fast. Museums are pretty much equally as good, and the overall activities in New York are a lot more. London loses, it’s got a lot less going on
@@corvettesareneat1274 did you just say New York has more architectural diversity 😂😂😂 most of New York's skyscrapers are ugly looking, and Londons Skyscrapers look much better and there all very different from each other, if you like a concrete jungle then good for you, but London has so many of the greatest parks in the world, greatest theaters in the world, the greatest bridge in the world, and one of the greatest cathedrals in the world and so many historical buildings like Shakespeare's globe, there's definitely a lot more activities in London and that's a fact, New York easily loses this one.
I have lived in both places and have travelled the world. Central Park is far and away the best inner city park in the world, and Prospect Park, Riverside Park and Cunningham Park are all top 30. Hyde Park is maybe 6th or 7th, and most of London's green space is not accessible to the public.
"Most" would be an overestimation - a lot of green squares are gated, and Buckingham Palace Gardens is also closed, but the majority of parks and gardens are open to public.
I don’t want one large park option though. In London I could walk to Hyde park, regents park(nicer than Central Park)Hampstead Heath, Primrose Hill…. I mean, that’s so much better . Not even close. 1/3 of Central Park is that big horrible reservoir, or whatever it is.

You know nothing 😂 The city of London, is often called the square mile because it is tiny. And even if you only count central london, thats still 40% compared to 29 000 acres of parks and open spaces and 17 200 acres of beaches, waterfront parks and natural areas and preserves you get 24% of land area ( all figures from the City of New York and thats including a lot of NYC that is not at all central)
And that whole second argument you make that people can just go out of the city for nature is so ignorant. Most people don't have the time or money to spend a large part of their day or weekend going to and from these places
The city of London is different than London, and the city of London is tiny. A square mile. You have the brain of a black person
@@Gfynbcyiokbg8710it’s an hour drive from lower manhattan to one of the nicest state parks in New York, or, as most people would do when they want a break from work, they can simply go to Central Park. Most people have money and time for both of those.
@@Ajokeiguess Oh yeah because NYC is famous for having extremely high car ownership rates and absolutely Zero poor people
New York on top 🔝 ❤❤🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Been to both many times
NY is impressive but London is the Gran daddy
Cleaner , everything works better
And more efficient
In Londen the 2 towers are still standing
NYC is best
I went to NYC every year for twelve years as part of my job and I can tell you that NYC is not even a close 10th to London.
@@knottymaker3904these people probably haven’t even visited know ny yet they still talk like they were experts
Finely someone respects where I live
Cities in Europe will always be better than any city in the country of cars
Berlin is a dogshit city so this is a lie
Nyc is probably the only city in america that is the least car dependent but depending where u live in nyc definitely matters 😬
Not to mention how people drives here lmao
@@fewkeyfewkey5414 he still got train and bicycles to cut that traffic lol
i like how europeans often make fun of americans for thinking they’re the best but literally the only time i see people thinking they’re the best is europeans😭

City no need green space
Need green space go village not city 😅
Ever heard of air pollution?
Ayushup2002 you are right
North American, but definitely London. Fantastic city green-space-wise.
London beats NYC any day. Not saying London is perfect but it’s less crowded, cleaner, safer, buildings are more beautiful, and free museums!
Nearly every nice city anywhere relies on New York in some way. It is the most important city in the world-you can look it up. It's not beautiful like London with its trees and parks, but it has everything London does, just more extreme. London has 300 languages; New York has 800, more than any city anywhere. It also has more food, more skyscrapers, more everything. Plus, it's the headquarters of the United Nations.
@@Ajokeiguess 'skyscrapers' and the 'United Nations' are negligible. New York's population has lost over 600,000 people since 2020. It has a homicide rate of around ~3 per 100,000 people -- it may not sound like a lot, but is higher than any capital on the European continent. Deploying your national guard to protect the metro system in your country's No. 1 city is unprecedented in any developed nation on the planet. New York is not livable. And livability is what makes a city great.
@@cherriepie Absolutely, new York is a hellhole with death, murder, and crime. But at the same time, It's where dreams are made, where cultures collide and create something uniquely American. Livability is important, sure, but greatness isn't just about comfort-it's about energy, diversity, and opportunity.
In New York, you can either be rich and famous, or poor and homeless, a number of people know this and move in only to fail, lose their home, their mind, and their money. There is no other city anywhere in the world where people have as big of an opportunity and as big of a risk, the homelessness and crime is a direct result of its importance and size.
@@Ajokeiguess It is usually only a small number of privileged people that achieve these 'dreams' that are usually are from rich families beforehand, to imply New York is some kind of special exception in which a family in The Bronx on $20K can make it to being millionaires easily is far fetched. New York is no more socially-mobile than many capitals on the planet. I could argue Stockholm is more socially mobile than New York because Sweden's former president started out as a welder and became the president. A city full of death, murder, homelessness and crime is _not_ a good thing, and is a failure of the state.
I wish i could go to London
London got West Ham United! 2-0 London! COYI
Ironssss!!!!!!
@@jakelamb2164 West Ham are massive, everywhere we go!!!!
But you also got tottenham in London so thats a -1
@@michaelszewczuk7173They're not even massive in London lad. Arsenal, Tottenham and Chelsea bigger clubs in your own city.
Two unique places should not be compared ❤❤
New York is the best.
It's all subjective. London would win hands down though on a 10,000 vote contest by people who know both cities well but not native to either imo
I would bet a large sum of money on it np
@@salus1231 I mean usually everybody js like sometimes mostly votes on the city or place that they live in yk
Exactly New York city is the best
@@salus1231 Bruh everything London does New York does better.
Who wins that doesn't matter, because I only care about what l really love, and l love New York City always ❤
In a fight between two cities,
Traffic jam always win.
Team NYC👇
New York ❤
Both cest pools
Thank you so much my name is London and you say my country went thank you. I was subscribing like like and subscribe to him.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
New York hands down best city in the world.
At what? Crime, poor infrastructure, pollution Maybe. Isn’t even top 10 for most museums. Way off for everything else.
@@JohnSmith-sm7ez So, London has lots of crime too. People getting stabbed and robbed out there.
Infrastructure in the city is top notch. Besides the subways. That shit could use some work for sure. But in everything else high rises, bridges, tunnels, roads New York >>> London.
Pollution in New York is the exact same as in London. Go look it for yourself. If you don’t believe me.
Also, the MET in New York is considered to be among the top 3 museums in the world after the louvre in France and some other museum in Russia. Not to mention the MOMA is up there etc. you just don’t know shit.
@@daxtynminn3415London is definitely better than New York, London has ancient buildings history and culture and London also has the best parks in the world, and when it comes to bridges nothing compares to tower bridge, and also the tower of London which dates back to 1078, and also the British museum is the greatest museum in the world along with the Victoria and Albert museum, and St Paul's is one of the great cathedrals of the world, clearly you don't know shit because London is the greatest city in the world.
@@illyaedwards7188NYC has much more architectural diversity, and having “ancient” buildings gets dull fast. Museums are pretty much equally as good, and the overall activities in New York are a lot more. London loses, it’s got a lot less going on
@@corvettesareneat1274 did you just say New York has more architectural diversity 😂😂😂 most of New York's skyscrapers are ugly looking, and Londons Skyscrapers look much better and there all very different from each other, if you like a concrete jungle then good for you, but London has so many of the greatest parks in the world, greatest theaters in the world, the greatest bridge in the world, and one of the greatest cathedrals in the world and so many historical buildings like Shakespeare's globe, there's definitely a lot more activities in London and that's a fact, New York easily loses this one.
London and New York cool cities.❤😁😁😄😄😃😃😀😀😍👍👍
When it comes to Skyscraper the score is 1-0. New York wins. In our competition there can only be one winner the skyscraper!!!!
I have lived in both places and have travelled the world. Central Park is far and away the best inner city park in the world, and Prospect Park, Riverside Park and Cunningham Park are all top 30. Hyde Park is maybe 6th or 7th, and most of London's green space is not accessible to the public.
"Most" would be an overestimation - a lot of green squares are gated, and Buckingham Palace Gardens is also closed, but the majority of parks and gardens are open to public.
I don’t want one large park option though. In London I could walk to Hyde park, regents park(nicer than Central Park)Hampstead Heath, Primrose Hill…. I mean, that’s so much better . Not even close. 1/3 of Central Park is that big horrible reservoir, or whatever it is.
London definitely has better parks than New York.
You can’t really compare London to NY, it will end up 20-0 !
Egypt is better
@@estelalopez3563Egypt is country you fool 😭 and you haven’t even got a real democracy, you’re living in the 1500s 😂
@@estelalopez3563😂
Yes 20-0 to nyc ofc
NYC >>> London
There’s a reason New York City is nicknamed the capital of the world
Free subways 😂😂
Both London and NY are completely different - different histories/cultures/significance
(But for me personally London wins every time!)
Egypt is more older

Now you’re in New York
London still has 2 towers standing

And you can’t play chess since you got no queen
@@Real_Boi.having a dead queen is better than having Biden. My guy is literally being held up by sticks like he's a goddamn puppet. Can't even say the name of your nation correctly let alone lead it
At least we don't have Roblox Logos in the middle of our business district
I think there is less people in London
@@estelalopez3563 How's that got to do with anything?
Also we actually have a higher population
But oh dear, London has rip-off ULEZ and £price per mile driving soon...
Of course London beats Newyork hands down for living. NYC is for visiting, won't dream of moving from London to NY permanently
New York ❤❤❤❤
London as an American. Better designed, more green space, better public transit, great museums, WAY CLEANER!
London wasn't designed,it evolved over almost 2000 years and it's still changing now, that's what I love about it .
🕺🕺🕺 yes always London ❤
Oi mait wanna cuppa tea on chewsday innit?
And the best thing about London is; Paris! 😂😂
London is way more dangerous though
No it's not
🤣🤣🤣🤣
It's all in your head bud. Do some actual research and you'll find NYC has a higher crime rate than London. 🤦♂️
Lmao
