I will not raise my children in NYC, unless I'm married to a very wealthy man. I believe in public schools as I went to them myself, but very few of the public schools will prepare the little Munchkins for the types of colleges that MY public school prepared me for. Also, those schools are extremely hard to get into.
A lot of people have left NYC for Philly and are very happy. I'm thinking Boston, Chicago, Austin, or San Francisco when it's time.

Same thing here, only I left NYC for DC, then back to the Pittsburgh office. And nor would I raise children there, unless I were filthy rich.
I want to repeat, go to NYC if you can, even if it's for only 6 months or so. The rest of your life, you will better understand so much movies, theatre, the neighborhoods - everything about NYC, and in a sense, the mindset. I don't think that there's any other city in the world that begin to compare.
