NYC stood out to me too. We think 3 out of 10 people in the US live in NYC??? Lmaooo. I think a big part of it is that we just generally don’t comprehend statistics because some of these numbers are wild.
You can’t even say they NYC is over represented in media because that’s where it’s filmed. A lot of NYC sitcoms are filmed in LA. The reason is just urban narcissism. I’ve outright heard a new yorker say that NYC is the cultural center of America and even tried to credit NYC with popularizing pizza in the US.
A lot of the companies that produce them are from NYC though. Also Pizza was popularized, in the US, from immigrants in NYC, and while america having a single cultural center isn’t really thing, if you had to pick one A LOT of people would choose it.

Maybe because NYC(and LA) are stupidly over represented in the media.
Well, most of US media is made in, or by companies in, those two cities.
And?
That would be why they have more representation.
