Hi
The best way to find out more about the different boroughs before you move here is to get information online Here's a site that gives a quick lowdown on all five boroughs
http://www.nyny.com/neighborhoods/
http://www.nyc.gov/portal/site/nycgov/menuitem.4f9f1f406fbfa007a62fa24601c789a0/
http://nymag.com/visitorsguide/

Also you can read some blogs about people who have been living here for a while http://www.nycbloggers.com/

One more cool way to check out the city before coming here is to use Google Street View on the Google Maps website.. Here's how Times Square looks. Just click on the link below to see a 360-degree street view of Times Square
http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=times+square++NY&sll=40.759092,-73.984353&sspn=0.031792,0.077162&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=Theater+District+-+Times+Square,+New+York&ll=40.760911,-73.984466&spn=0.015895,0.038581&t=p&z=15&iwloc=A&layer=c&cbll=40.759092,-73.984353&panoid=rMotfLkm4_rpHK7Z_AXcMg&cbp=12,228.06,,0,5

Personally I would say the best way to find out which borough fits you best when you get here is to buy a 24-hour or 7-day unlimited subway pass and use a map of new york to explore the whole of New York City by train & walking around.
