New York City, often referred
to as NYC, is located at the southern tip of New York State. It is one of
the most populous cities in the United States and is situated where the
Hudson and East rivers meet to form one of the world's premier harbours.
Despite its status as a major urban centre, New York City covers a
relatively small area of around 3,100 square kilometres. This compact
geography has contributed to the city's reputation for being densely
populated and bustling with activity.
New York City is divided into five boroughs: Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens,
the Bronx, and Staten Island. Each borough has its unique character and
attractions, ranging from the towering skyscrapers of Manhattan to the
vibrant cultural scene in Brooklyn. Printable and PDF maps of the five
boroughs and famous districts and neighbourhoods are available for visitors
to plan their itineraries. The map set includes detailed street maps and
a silhouette aerial view.
