I definitely recommend it. I think that's where I'll end up one day. If you do move there, I can tell you a ton of places to visit and some cool people to meet.
Thanks. I come from Chicago, and came to New York to study the use of photography, everyday meanings and its social life. I have an event coming up, a group shot, in Brooklyn, if you have friends who might be interested, please let them know ;)
Please let know if your work will be up somewhere to see in person!
