New York City or San Francisco for college

New York City or San Francisco for college?
Those are my two top choices for where I would absolutely love to go to college, though New York is my number one (SF is like my fallback town.) What are the good and bad things about each? Where is the college life generally better? Which is safer for people who do not conform to social norms like myself? Which is more economical (bang-for-the-buck including college costs)? Which is just all-around BETTER? THANK YOU!! :)

Answer 1 :
If you go to a public college, it is about the same cost. I went to college in New York years ago and I live in San Francisco. There is no comparison. NY has resources you dont find in any other city. I would never take back my experience of college there for anything. It opened up my mind and nourished my soul. S.F. is rather small and unimportant by comparison. NY is exciting, dynamic, fast, opportunities, progress, talent, academics, learning. Everybody important in the world goes to NY. Every big city appeals to non-confirmists.

Is it safe near City College of New York dorms?
I am going to the City College of New York and the dorms are on west 130th. Is that area of Harlem safe for a female? I'll only be out to go to school and the train station on 125th

Is it wise for me to move to New York for college

Is it wise for me to move to New York for college?
Hello, I'm currently a senior in high school in the illinois region, and I was wondering if it wise for me to consider moving to New York to further my education. I have two siblings that attend college in state. I've never been one to leave home too have if I don't have to, and I absolutely do NOT like to fly in airplanes. However, vie always seen images of New York that just make it seem so lively and wonderful. I could really use some input here. Thanks everyone!

I love New York. From what I've heard though, it's dang expensive to actually live on thie island. You might cobcider moving to New Jersey, which is only across the river, instead and commuting to the island for school.
Answer 2 :
I'm going to New York for college and I've visited many times. I think it's a great idea to go to school there. I live in Illinois as well and I just needed a change. New York is so lively and is perfect for experience and finally be independent. If you are looking for a change, then I'd say go!
Answer 3 :
why you want to see the G-L Party? Maybe up to you.
