It makes sense if you a) earn a decent amount of money b) want to live in Manhattan for all the entertainment options etc. c) only need space for a bed because you only ever eat out and don't spend much time at home.

Suburbs lead to loneliness.

Also, less abstractly people living in car-centric places drive everywhere. If you live in a walkable place you walk to do most of your errands so you get exercise without even trying to.

New Yorkers live longer than suburban Americans. One can have many complaints about a modern urban lifestyle, but health isn’t one of them.

"eating out" in New York does not mean going through a McDonalds drive through, like it does in most of the US.
