Relocating to London from NY?

Living in London is exciting and something that everyone should try once, while they are still young. London is full of young professionals and has an energetic and exciting buzz that is great to be a part of. There is loads of stuff to do, with opportunities galore and a great sense of pride that comes from being a Londoner. Yes London definitely competes successfully with the Big Apple when it comes to the quality of life. If you are planning to relocate to London then you can visit rental sites, such as plazaestates.co.uk as they helped me to find a good place when I moved to London.

@Uptowngirl: Yeah, but I'll bet the cost of living comes close to matching the pricing of goods. If the price of stuff was way to expensive, people would not be able to buy it and no one would have food, clothing, or shelter.

London does lack the diversity that NYC has and it can be prohibitively expensive as well.Certain services that most NYers take for granted like getting a mani-pedi, dry cleaning, taxi rides can be extremely expensive in London and though London has a ton of cheap high street stores it doesnt really compare to the far more affordable and better quality guaranteed New York shopping.

I really don't like London - as an NYC native. I find it crowded, miserable, unfriendly, but without the energy, diversity, and vitality of NYC. All of the worst and none of the best, as it were. And the public transport system is AWFUL (I teach in London on the weekends when living in Oxford, and I've never been able to get a direct Tube train from Paddington to King's Cross, despite the fact that THREE lines are supposed to run direct, because they're always down for repairs, etc) But some towns near London, like Oxford, are lovely.

hi nyboy666, i think you missed the point, i'm wondering what life in London would be like. I'm currently in NY (I guess my question didnt read correctly). I've never been to London, and I love NY. I know the weather is really bad over there, but we have our ups and downs in NY as well, so that doesn't bother too much i guess.

You definitely wont miss the London weather! I think if you have lived in London you will be fine in NYC. There is so much to do, it can be a little overwhelming when you move here with the size and people but after 6 months you will love it. The key is getting a group of friends.
