Switching trades and moving to NYC

Living in Florida been a painting for 6 years looking to make a move to New York in the next 2 years but I don’t necessarily want to stick with painting out there. Any advice on what the trades are like out there? I’m looking at electrician or plumbing work try and get a head start down here for a year or two. Are unions near impossible to get into there?

(Sorry if I’m posting in the wrong place)

Moving to NYC in 2 years with partner

They got a job out there my issue is I have no degree I’ve worked in residential painting for the past 7 years and not something I’d really like to do out there. Is going back to school for an associates worth it? Should I switch trades and try and get in a union? Any advice helps.
