New York City is the epicenter of culture and the arts — and now it’s become a home base for the tech community.
While the tech sector in New York City isn’t growing as quickly as the West Coast, the NYC Comptroller doesn’t necessarily see this as a bad thing. A report from the office in 2023 noted that New York City has a long history of sustaining other industries like retail and transportation, which in turn bodes well for the tech sector. Considering the tech industry is now better measured by specific roles in tech — since nearly every industry has tech teams.
“[New York City] is about as diverse and urban an economy as exists today, and one that boasts a diverse, well-educated and productive workforce,” as the report notes.
