 New York is a walker's town (maybe, that's why New Yorkers live 6 months longer than the USA average)! Fifty-four percent (54%) of those living in New York City lives in a household without an automobile. The percentage increases to 74% for residents living in Manhattan. Manhattan is the borough where tourists usually spend all of their time when visiting New York. A vehicle in New York City is an expensive inconvenience.
