True, we should be careful to not conflate "Manhattan" with "New York City".

That said, I agree with OP's comment within the context of Manhattan. Anyone who owns a car there is very wealthy, even within the context of a wealthy city.

(I don't agree with pegging the divide at 110th street, that's much too low.)

Anecdotal, but my relatives who live/grew up in the outer boroughs call Manhattan “the city”.

Thats only if you live in NYC you refer to Manhattan as "the city" but we very well know that New York City consist of all 5 boroughs
