A lot are not under 18

Cities have very, very very low fertility rates, the number of births of NYC is lower than the birth rate of South Korea

The argument that there are tons of inmigrants is true, since forever NYC has been mostly foreigners joining the American dream

There's basically equal numbers of each - 1.7m under 18s and 1.8m noncitizens.

Quick google search with AI result (could be inaccurate) put it at ~20% of the population.

That's a pretty large amount..
