I'm not going to ask for percentages or anything :p, just.. name races you've seen in NYC :D

And if you're wondering why I'm asking this question.. I love diversity and I love different cultures :)

Hmm, will I utilize my French at all in NYC?

You can utilize any language you want to utilize here. It's just a matter of finding people who speak it, which is fairly easy in this melting pot of a city. Since you asked about French, do you mean classic French, Canadian French, Creole, Haitian Creole, Basque, or other?

Also, when you say "NYC", do you mean Manhattan or all 5 boroughs?
