The Reason I’m Living in New York

There are many people living in New York whether they have a reason to live here or not. I will talk about why I am living in New York.

First, there are many jobs here. This is one of the reasons I live in New York. A lot of people are living here, so there are many stores, restaurants and service places. I was able to find a job more easily here than in other cities. I’m now working in a Korean restaurant in Manhattan. A job opportunity is a very important thing in my life here because without a job I can’t make money.

Second, there are many schools here. It means that New York can provide me many chances for an education. I have to study hard in order to get a good job. In addition, I need various educations to improve my life. I think that New York can provide me various educations, so I want to live and study here.

Finally, New York is the most attractive city in the world. There are many museums, restaurants and theaters here. All people want to visit here because there are a lot of interesting places. For example, I really wanted to watch major league baseball, so I came here and I enjoy watching the Yankees and Mets. I’m living here to enjoy my life.

In conclusion, New York has provided me the opportunity to work, to study and to have enjoyable free time. So I am living here and I’ll live in New York until I change my mind.
