You are right that you have to be tempermentally suited to large cities. I got along pretty well in Boston area but it is a lot less harsh in tone than New York. New Yorkers, of course, are used to it and I get the impression that they often see the city as a grouping of small parts rather than a whole.
I don't know how other cities are, but NYC is definitely a city of little neighborhoods. Go just a couple blocks over and it can feel like you're in a totally different place. That's what I love about it, all these distinct little worlds. So many people who aren't from here seem to think the whole city is as crowded and noisy as Times Square or in the shadows of giant skyscrapers like the financial district. But that's not what it is at all. What makes New York so amazing is how incredibly diverse it is.
And the last thing I bought was mock duck pad Thai because I got paid Friday and I have no self control.
