Default Sheep in a big city

I've always wondered, how the hell can anyone live in New York City.

Wikipedia:
- City 468.9 sq mi (1,214.4 kmē)
- Land 304.8 sq mi (789.4 kmē)
- Water 165.6 sq mi (428.8 kmē)
- Urban 3,352.6 sq mi (8,683.2 kmē)
- Metro 6,720 sq mi (17,405 kmē)

I thought my home town is not a little town - about 40 kmē. Now I feel little.

But seriously too. Even "just" 800 square kms is just huge. How do you live there? Do you get lost on a regular basis? Or you carry a city map or gps with you at all times? How does one become a cabbie in NYC?

This was a serious question btw. I might move to a bigger town soon. It'd be still less than 200km² though - and even that is scary.
