I am a New Yorker.

To me, what defines a New Yorker is the edge that one develops from having actually lived here. Once you have it, it doesn't go away, and everywhere else in the world feels like it is in slow motion.

I've always essentially been a New Yorker.

Technically, I'm a New Yorker.

I like to think of myself as a New Yorker, which is pathetic.

You have to be a xenophile at heart to be a true New Yorker.

I'm a New Yorker, you know.

When you live in New York, one of two things happen - you either become a New Yorker, or you feel more like the place you came from.

I still think of myself really as a New Yorker.

When you grow up in the city, New York is so big that you can kind of stay in your own little corner of the city and think that that's it because you don't need anything. You don't have to venture out; you don't have to touch the boroughs. You can kind of stay in your neighborhood, and there's everything there.
