From Koreatown to West 57th Street: The coffee is cheaper, and the living is easier Read More

I am a born and raised New Yorker--I grew up in Brooklyn--and I recently moved from Koreatown (34th Street between Fifth Avenue and Broadway) to Columbus Circle/Hell's Kitchen (West 57th Street between Eighth and Ninth Avenues).
I'm now experiencing a very different neighborhood. My new one is much less congested with more of a "neighborhood feel."
However, the biggest adjustment has been getting to know new neighbors and vendors (who aren't so friendly) and building relationships all over again.
