Part 1

                Two places I would like to go after I am out of college are Manhattan New York, NY and Los Angeles, California. I think living in Manhattan New York, NY would be a fun and educational experience. A negative thing about living in such a big city at such a young age is the fact that a 21 year old might not know how to handle the challenges of living in the city. They would have to learn how to manage their time with city and traffic and so on. I would want to live in the city, because I feel as though it would give me a challenge which I would learn from no matter what the outcome would be. The population is 1,631,966. That is a very large amount of people. Because after college I would still be at such a very young age the push and pull factors would be a little different than a thirty year old woman. A pull factor for living in Manhattan New York, NY is that I wouldn’t have to spend money on a car because most people use taxis. For a 21 year old living on their own, paying for a car would be a big thing along with so many other bills that would need to be paid. A push factor would be the price of homes and apartments there are much higher than in the country. The cost of an apartment in New York would be just as much as a house in the country. For such a young person that would be a lot to handle. If I were to live in Los Angeles, California it really would not be any different than living in Manhattan New York, NY. They are both very large cities with lots of activities. A difference between LA and NY is that LA has more homes, it has a lot of apartments and town homes, like NY but it has more homes. LA is definitely more family friendly compared to NY. I still would not consider LA to be the best place to raise a family but it would definitely be a great place to live after college. A pull factor for living in LA would be the good economy. A push factor for living in LA would be the violence. LA and NY are both great places to live right after college.
