West is unparalleled in terms of cultural capital. West over east any day.

100% agree. It also feels like more of a community.

West Side = Best Side

West = riverside park, nat history museum, access to the Whitney, Chelsea, high line, west village, Lincoln center, plus much more diverse food options and fewer snobby folks who wanna live in a prestigious zip code

That west side train line is clutch, the only reason i ever went East was for the Met, and it’s easy enough to cab there

East has the schools. Many more

Depends what you’re looking for in the neighborhood. Upper west side is certainly more lively, but the UES has 2nd Avenue bars/restaurants/museum mile/world class doctors and small local parks that make it feel residential. I’ve lived on the UES for nearly a decade

Definitely West

If you have kids then East is the way to go - best schools.

I'm looking for better legal opportunities in other cities across the nation. I've been working for mid-sized insurance defense firm for 3 years and have over 7 years of civil defense and commercial litigation experience. I have an MBA and am eager to put that to use more directly, but I believe I will have to move elsewhere. Has anyone seen more legal opportunities or success for diverse applicants in certain areas or cities? Just looking for places to start my search....

Update: just got my OOAS shoes and I have to say, I LOVE THEM!!
The box they came with was beautiful, the dust bag was also beautiful. The shoe feels so well made and luxurious, I would say they feel more luxurious than my Loubies! I got them in 6.5 based on all the comments but a 6 should have worked just fine. I can’t wear the shoes with socks because then they become very slippery so keep that in mind. Overall, worth the price!
