Manhattan, considered the heart of the city, is located at the southern end of the Hudson River and is bounded by the Harlem River to the north and east, the East River to the east, and the Hudson River to the west.
Manhattan is known for its iconic landmarks such as the Empire State Building, the Chrysler Building, the Statue of Liberty, and Central Park. It is also home to some of the world's most famous museums, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), and the American Museum of Natural History.
Manhattan is the most densely populated borough of New York City, and one of the most densely populated areas in the world. The island is divided into several distinct neighborhoods, each with its own character and history. Some of the most well-known neighborhoods include Times Square, Greenwich Village, SoHo, Chinatown, and the Upper East Side.
In 2015, less than 1% of households in Manhattan reported using heating oil as their primary heating fuel.
