What AOC Has Taught Us About Living in the Bronx

March 11, 2021 //  by Geoff

Whether or not you’re into politics, the chances are that you’ve heard the name AOC once or twice over the past few years. The young congresswoman from the Bronx, New York has made a name for herself that’s almost as large as New York City itself.

The credit for her meteoric rise as an icon as well as a politician is due as much to her “Alex From the Block” swagger as her political chops. When you see her, you’re looking at the everyday people in the Bronx. If you’re considering moving to the Bronx, there’s a lot to learn from AOC.

The Bronx is exceptionally diverse.

New York City is known as the Big Apple, and people come from all over the United States and the rest of the world to get a bite. The Bronx is one of the most diverse areas in the United States, with over 1/3 of its citizens being born outside of the U.S.

Are you really surprised? You should expect the borough that can boast that it’s the birthplace of Hip Hop and a young congresswoman who’s also a rockstar in her own right to be diverse.

The Bronx roots for the Yankees.

New York City has two major league baseball teams—the Yankees and the Mets. If you’re not a New Yorker, you may not know the golden rule, so here it is: When in the Bronx, you root for the Yankees.

They tell you in the classic baseball song, “Take Me Out to the Ball Game,” that it’s “Root, root, root for the home team.” One important thing you should know before moving to the Bronx is that there’s only one home team, and that’s the Bronx Bombers—aka the New York Yankees.

The job market is ultra-competitive.

If there’s a downside to moving to New York, it’s that the job market is one of the most competitive in the United States. It’s always difficult to find your footing in a new place if you’re not moving into a job as well, but you’d better build up your nest egg before moving to the Bronx in case of a lengthy job search.

With the job market in the big city being so competitive, it’s critical to have all your ducks in a row before you begin putting in job applications. There are a few things to triple-check before applying for a new job, such as your social media accounts, credit, background, and references. Failures in any of those areas could be detrimental to your job prospects, so make sure everything is as accurate and favorable as possible before you begin your job search.

You should also write a cover letter to submit with your resume and job applications. If you don’t know who to address in your cover letter, address it to the hiring manager rather than “To Whom it may concern.” It’s a good idea to write a different cover letter for every company you apply to. You should also do your research on the company so you can give them a reason for you applying there besides needing a job. It will also earn you extra points in your job interviews if you can point out specific things about the company you like.

The dating scene is vibrant.

New York has a well-earned reputation for being a bustling big city with plenty of noise and attractions. However, NYC is also a great place to fall in love. It should come as no surprise that New York City has one of the most vibrant dating scenes in the entire world, let alone the United States.

When you move to a new city, making new friends is always a concern. Even though New Yorkers have a reputation for being abrupt (if not rude), New York has a welcoming, patronizing atmosphere.

If you’re looking for a new love interest or new friends in the Big Apple, social media is one of the best places to start. With New York being such a busy city full of New Yorkers and tourists, there are tons of places to meet people. One of the best dating tips if you’re new in town is to buy or adopt a dog. Everyone loves dogs, and if you have a friendly, outgoing pooch, they’ll help you make new friends in your new neighborhood and meet potential first dates.

If you want to give the nightlife a try, be forewarned—there’s a reason New York City is known as the City That Never Sleeps, and the Bronx is one of the most lively NYC boroughs. However, you have to look your best when you go out for a night on the town in the Big Apple or any new city where you want to make an impression for that matter. You might have to go down your beauty checklist before heading out the door to make sure you’ve got it all together, from your false lashes kit to your high heels.

There’s a reason that the Bronx is one of the most beloved boroughs in New York City. After you’ve been there for a while, you’ll begin to feel like part of the city. Once you’ve made some new friends, you may even decide that the Bronx is the only borough for you!
