I'm fascinated by their steam system but it's got me curious, having so much steam being used for everything, is the city more humid than the average?

Edit: I appreciate the answers, but I was hoping there was some research on this instead of guesstimations. Also, some of your responses are really general as if you think I'm talking about any city in America, but you should look up New York Cities steam system, it's very interesting and unique and has been in operation since the 1800s.

Thanks, this is the closest thing to data this thread has, lol, everyone else is guessing and assuming. The comment about it being surrounded by water does make it kind of likely a moot point, but it would still be interesting to know, like you said, if there was a difference at all.
