You don’t have to be born in New York to be a New Yorker!!!
A New Yorker is a person who by all means loves New York, enjoys the city. A New Yorker is a person who supports the city and enjoys the diversity of its people and all its different cultures.
A New Yorker is a person who stands for what they believe and yet respects the opinion of others.
There is nothing like New York.
Have you been here lately?

Agreed!
I was not born in New York, but live here now and consider myself to be 100% New Yorker!

I think your reply to what is a new yorker is very true, i live in Canada, but my dream is to visit and someday live in New York I even painted New York on my wall in my room and all of the different places surrounding it on there too. Someday i wish to be a true New Yorker!

hello
Yes, i do believe that if you like a place, you belong to it and learn more
about it.
There are New Yorkers that could care less.
Good Luck

I want to be a New Yorker. I live in the LA area but it's not nearly as cool as New York. I want to live in New York one day.

Hello,
I love your opinion on a New Yorker, those on this site believe you have to be born and raised in New York to be one. New York wouldn't be what it is today if it didn't except new people onto it's land. I'm not a New Yorker yet, but will one day be one in the near future. It's always been a dream of mine and seeing that there are people there willing to accept new comers is even greater.
