Yes, many famous people live on the Upper West Side. Also the Upper East Side.

The West Village, SoHo and Tribeca also attract a lot of celebrities. But since these neighborhoods are currently super-trendy and chic, they tend to attract the younger, hipper celebrities like Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen.

What is the difference between the upper east side and the upper west side of New York city?

The Upper East Side has always been synonymous with wealth, while the Upper West Side has always been considered more bohemian and intellectual, probably due to its close proximity to Columbia University. In the last 25 years, however, the Upper West Side has gotten progressively more and more gentrified, and now rent and condo prices on the Upper West Side are quite often even more expensive than on the Upper East Side. However, the Upper East Side is still generally considered the wealthiest neighborhood in the city.

How is the Upper East Side different from the Upper West Side in Manhattan?

The Upper East Side has always been synonymous with wealth, while the Upper West Side has always been a lot more bohemian and intellectual, probably due to its close proximity to Columbia University. It is also much more ethnically diverse than the Upper East Side. In the last 25 years, however, the Upper West Side has gotten progressively more and more posh, and now rent and condo prices on the Upper West Side are quite often even more expensive than on the Upper East Side. The result of this is a sociology thesis just begging to be written, as housing projects populated entirely by poor blacks and Latinos are often situated right next to, or just across the street from, new luxury condominiums populated entirely by rich whites.

What is the wealthiest section of New York City?

The Upper East Side has been the wealthiest neighborhood in the entire city for many decades now. The Upper West Side, however, is a close second. This was not true until around 10 to 15 years ago. My parents moved to the Upper West Side when they first got married -- the late 1970s -- and it was not a wealthy neighborhood then. In fact, it was a dangerous neighborhood. When my mother was pregnant with me (in the early 1980s), she did not feel safe leaving the house at night by herself. The entire neighborhood was mostly vacant lots and crackhouses. In the early 1980s, high-rent luxury condos started springing up from the empty lots on the Upper West Side. The neighborhood has become increasingly wealthy and gentrified ever since then. Now, rent and condo prices on the Upper West Side are often even more expensive than the Upper East Side! Despite this, the Upper East Side is still generally considered the toniest, wealthiest neighborhood in the city. The Upper West Side may be just as expensive -- or sometimes even more expensive -- now, but the Upper East Side has been the traditional home of New York's upper class for many decades now, so the reputation survives. Old-money New Yorkers still tend to think that the Upper East Side is the only neighborhood that is appropriate for people of their standing to live in.


Is Penn Station on the Upper East Side?

No, Penn Station is in Chelsea. It's on the West Side, and much further Downtown than the Upper East Side. Penn Station is located at West 33rd to West 34th Streets, between 8th and 7th Avenues. The northern border of the Chelsea neighborhood is generally considered to be 34th Street. From 34th to 59th Street on the West Side is the neighborhood known as Hell's Kitchen (which is sometimes called "Midtown West," or "Clinton," which is its new, sanitized name). The Upper East Side is across town (on the East Side) and further north. The Upper East Side runs from East 59th Street to East 96th Street.
