I greatly envy the evenness of prosperity over American cities. Many developing countries exhibit the "megacity syndrome", with the problems you mentioned. The answer to your question depends on several factors, e.g., how outgoing you are, and how much spare time you have. People are increasingly working longer hours and barely have enough time to see their friends over the weekend. My family happens to live in another continent, and I see them twice a year. The rest of the time, I use telephone and Internet messenging. Other than the seven hour time difference I have no problem. As for friends... I think I could not manage to have ongoing relationships with more than a dozen people, and keep track of their lives. Finding a dozen friends in any city should be possible.
