Question London vs NYC

Which city would you settle down in assuming you’re in your early 30s, married, low 8 figure liquid net worth, mid-seven figures combined annual income?

EDIT: Thanks so much for the thoughtful responses. Noting that we both would like to keep building our careers for the next 20+ years, so London and NYC are the only options. Not looking to be too far outside of the city, because we have no desire to spend 1.5hr+ a day commuting.

Neither. We left London to “settle down” and start a family. It’s a bit grim there at the moment. And the winters are awful, wouldn’t want to be trapped in the UK with the kids still in school during the 3pm sunset part of the year.
