i think such comparisons are pointless. we might have nicer and more modern infrastructure, lower crime, and less trash on streets but we also have lower income, number of our immigrants is much lower than immigrants to the usa, and we dont have diversity. everything has good and bad sides. if we compare cities without cherrypicking, it does not look impressive at all for poland. the best way of comparing countries is watching walking videos imo, at least 1 hour long, they tell everything. daywalk in warsaw:   kd49yy7e nightwalk in warsaw:   60wosyl8 daywalk in nyc:   19lgao00 nightwalk in nyc:   rrrsjn64 nyc has 8x bigger population than warsaw and much more skyscrapers so it must look more impressive, but what i love the most about nyc is diversity. meanwhile warsaw needs decades to reach this level of diversity.
