I can't speak for everyone, but I see people who didn't grow up in NY being ugly about NY, but not people from there. We know what a magical place it was to grow up.
You feel sorry for anyone who didn't grow up in NYC, but you're surprised at those who are "being ugly about NYC"...

Hmmm... There just might be a "cause & effect" thingy going on there...
