New York
Sometimes known as "The Big Apple" or "The City That Never Sleeps",
New York is both the most populous city in
the USA, as well as a leading center of business, commerce,
finance and media. The city, which is often referred to as "New York City", in order
to distinguish it from the state it is in (also called "New York", but often referred to as
"New York State"), as of
2004,
had an estimated population of 8,104,079. The city is part of a large metropolitan area,
and the combined city/metropolitan population exceeds 18.7 million.

New York City is made up of five boroughs (each of which currently corresponds to a county in
New York State), and hence another nickname of the city is "The Five Boroughs". The
five boroughs are: The Bronx (Bronx County), Brooklyn (Kings County), Manhattan (New York County),
Queens (Queens County) and Staten Island (Richmond County).
