Is this the same as the New York City candle?

No. Homesick sells both. New York is the state scent, built on apple and autumn spice; New York City is a separate citrus and jasmine accord. This page describes the state candle.

Why is the burn time given as 60 hours?

Homesick states a range of 60 to 80 hours. We use the bottom of a stated range throughout the site, so a cost-per-hour figure is never flattered by the most optimistic number a maker publishes.
