I just googled how many people does Citadel employ in New York City? And. And the AI overview that came up said, as of late 2025, Citadel employs approximately 1300-1500 people in New York City. The headquarters is in Miami. They moved from Chicago down to Miami for this exact reason. By the way, I have friends that moved to Miami because when Covid happened and then the taxing stuff, it was a one, two punch. (26:06–26:13)
