I've never really gamed in NYC, but I get the sense that the extreme density and variety of the city has led to 'Latin' style inequality in the player game. In the Latin South American countries, the rich are filthy rich, and most of the rest are dirt poor, or so it was.
In top tier American cities, you have an extreme variety of guys - when it comes to looks, niche, personality, connections, STATUS, money. Girls aren't looking for husbands or even commitment - there's no reason they can't fuck above their pay grade. In a city like NYC, they can meet dozens of Mr. Bigs daily, if they choose. To make a girl want to fuck you, she has to feel like you are her #1 option at that moment. In a shark tank with an even to bad ratio, without a niche that brings girls to YOU, even a solid player has to hustle to get laid.
I've always thought that the primary benefit of social circles and decent niches is that the girl comes in assuming you are equal value - and if you show some charm, then you're in high value territory. With a cold approach, great style and game often just puts you in that equal value territory - all that good stuff just got you to the starting line.
I'm in LA where something similar happens, though here it's probably moderated a bit by traffic and geographic sprawl.
