Hipsters and wannabe urbanites who move from suburban wastelands to NYC believing they will make it big in business, Broadway, or some other
NY industry. Eventually, these
mid-western suburbanites leave NYC generally after 1-2 years, after they realize they can'
t take the fast paced culture of NYC, get frustrated, and move to a more laid back city out west (Los Angeles, Seattle, or even back home). Those who expire are generally replaced with another
hipster-suburbanite, who will eventually reach his/her expiration
date, and the cycle continues.
