We read the comments and we try to decide what our future videos are gonna be now with that all in mind
Let's get started guys
I want to know which city you already think is the best and why?
But let's start looking at the facts of these two great cities
So first of all let's start off with a big apple. That is New York City now
This five boroughs city is the most populated city in all of the United States
and it has a population of eight million five hundred thirty seven thousand six hundred and seventy-three people as of a
2016 estimate with its population density being approximately twenty-eight thousand two hundred and ten people per square mile or
Approximately ten thousand eight hundred and ninety people per square kilometer and that makes New York City one of the most densely populated
Cities not just in the United States, but the entire world
It's crazy probably due to all the skyscrapers
that's why and with that population density its land size is four hundred and sixty eight point four eight four miles square which in
kilometers comes to
1213 kilometers square now okay
If any guys want to know a little bit more about Dubai or you want to learn?
More about New York well just letting you guys know
We've done videos on these cities in the past and I'm gonna put some cards in the video as you guys are watching also
I'll put them at the end of the video as well if you guys want to continue watching this as well
But isn't that guys let's continue now as for Dubai
Let's shift it over to it is one of the most expensive cities in the entire
World as a matter of fact a very recently the hotels that were priced within Dubai were the most expensive next to Geneva
Now currently its population is a lot smaller being three million ten thousand two hundred and sixty one
People as an estimate and a population density equalling approximately
731 point eleven people and as for its land size it is approximately four thousand one hundred and fourteen kilometers
Square now to look at these two cities. We got to do a couple of different comparisons
Let's first start off talking about tourism now for New York City it has the highest hotel occupancy rate in the entire country and in
2014 they got approximately fifty four point four million people visiting the city and as of today
It's well over sixty million people that visited a year and what makes this city so great. Well. It's not just good for business
It's also just a really cool place to check out
It's got a lot of really famous places famous places like the Empire State Building in the World Trade Center Memorial
Rockefeller Center
And it's also home to great late-night shows and sound night live and as well the city hosts the largest
Parades in the entire world such as the big Halloween parade the Christmas and Thanksgiving Parade and as well during New Year's
It's a very famous place to drop the ball
And of course let's not forget that it's got horse carriages that you can go around and just really romantic and it's lovely to be
In now Dubai is actually the seventh most visited country in the world with tourism equaling approximately 3.2 million people in
2014 however by
2016 it has jumped to 14 million, and it is expected to grow to 20 million by
2020 and of course to counter to New York this place is also a very popular place to go for business and of course scenery
Because firstly it is home to the largest
freestanding tower in the entire world known as the Burj Khalifa and as well as home to the world's largest indoor skiing facility and
Scenery or skydiving to see the palm jamia now
It should also be noted when it comes to Dubai when they finish building the Burj Khalifa in 2000
This structure towered over of the previously tall skyscrapers by sixty two point six one percent being over
828 meters tall now of course they may have the biggest tower in the world
But let's not forget New York had had the longest amount of skyscrapers ever
For example the Empire State Building has the record of having the most amount of years of maintaining the record of the world's tallest tower
As it was completed in 1931 and nothing was taller until the World Trade Centers came in in
1972 and even every skyscraper that had this record prior to the Empire State Building
Were actually located in New York with the first skyscraper being built in 1908 and New York actually had this record until about
1974 when it lost to the Sears Tower in Chicago
So we've got tourism
We got the tallest towers some cool places to visit
But let's talk about education within these cities now as for New York when it comes to universities and colleges and campuses
They have approximately over
135 colleges universities are campuses now as for Dubai its many
universities and colleges with partnerships from other colleges around the world
puts that at over
70 campuses colleges and universities within the city and while we're here we might as well look at hospitals and health of these cities
So in New York, they have over 60 hospitals stretched across its five boroughs now. I'm not actually sure whether or not these are
Private or public hospitals that didn't really say
But it should be noted that the city does have America's oldest public hospital now keep in mind when I say oldest
I say oldest as in public hospital because this goes to the Bellevue Hospital which opened on March 31st
17:36 but as for Dubai it has approximately
28 hospitals with six being public and 22 being private, so we've got tourism
We've got education, and yes of course there are other things to look at within these cities to compare them
But let's look at just the living expenses of New York versus Dubai now if you were to live in New York City the living
Expenses would be approximately 31% more for food 41 percent more for housing
however clothes in Dubai is 50% less and in New York
Transportation is approximately 50% more personal care is 31% more and for entertainment
It's approximately 20% more York than it is Dubai overall if you were to move to New York from Dubai. It would be
34% more
expensive to live in New York and last but not least guys probably the biggest thing when it comes to living in a place let's
Talk about temperature because that's a big thing now, New York is generally considered a humid continental
Being in the humid subtropical
Zone of Earth now for those who know New York it gets four different seasons it gets winter summer fall and spring now for summer
This generally goes from May to September with winter running from December till about March and of course fall and spring in between those two
Major seasons but to get a good idea of the climate of these cities
we should look at the average daily mean temperature of
summer and winter for example in New York in July their highest temperature is usually around seventy one point eight Fahrenheit or
twenty-two point one Celsius
however in January they get anywhere between twenty two point six Fahrenheit or
Negative five point two Celsius and during the months of winter
You'll usually get a lot of snow and ice and it's just terrible to drive in but Dubai
However is a desert climate located in the northern desert belt and of course Dubai doesn't really have four seasons
It just has what's called hot and hotter which is summer in winter and during their summer seasons they get things
What are known as a Shamal or a sandstorm?
Which happens quite frequently but as food Dubai in the months of August which is the hottest month they get an average?
36 degrees Celsius or ninety six point eight degrees Fahrenheit and jumping into January
Which is the coldest month for dou by their average sits at nineteen point three degrees Celsius or sixty six point seven degrees?
Fahrenheit either way guys Dubai is one hot place and New York is one
Well it can get pretty cold there, but either way guys that is our comparison of Dubai and New York of course
