⑥Sometimes known as "The Big Apple" or "The City That Never Sleeps", New York is both the most populous city in the USA and a leading center of business, commerce, finance and media. The city is often referred to as "New York City", in order to distinguish it from the state it is in. The city is part of a large metropolitan (大都市的) area, and the combined city population exceeds 18.7 million.
