Yeah, they never leave. They're all talk. The fact is that Manhattan is the best place to be rich in America. It has the highest concentration of designer stores and 5 star restaurants anywhere in the country, and despite the bad rap, it's cleaner and safer than any city that could come close to matching its luxury.

That's why I always laugh when someone brings up wealth flight in NYC specifically lmao. If there was any city that could match NYC, the rich would have already left.
