One of the five boroughs of the City of New York, which is known as one of the top finiancal, entertainment, and social centers of the world. But this borough mostly consists of people who were not born in the city, but rather moved here under the delusion that life here is like Sex and The City or Rent. In reality it is a place where people come to work and/or drink, unless one is wealthy enough to live comfortably or enjoys slumming it knowing their parent's money will back them up.

Symptoms: paying $1,500 for apartments without a kitchen; calling places mobbed by tourists "quaint."

"See me? Heck yes. He gave me the full Manhattan"
