I went back to Pittsburgh for the holidays to see my family and got the chance to play tennis with my brother. On the way to the court it occurred to me how easy it is to locate and schedule a tennis court there compared to NYC. Making reservations for a public court in PGH can be made on the telephone vs. NYC where you have to be physically present to reserve the court. Indoor tennis in PGH costs about a third of the price of courts in the NYC area.
One of the other hard parts about playing tennis in NYC is finding a reliable tennis partner. Despite there being over 6 million people in the city it's still hard to find a tennis partner. People's schedules change constantly.
Finally, getting to the courts in NYC can time consuming. Most people have to take the train to get to a court. Going from mid-town to Central Park, Riverside Park, Long Island can take longer than one might expect.
