is there a way in jQuery to select elements that have a certain value in a data attribute array?

Consider this snippet of html:

<li id="person1" data-city="Boston, New York, San Fransisco">
    Person name 1
</li>
<li id="person1" data-city="Los Angeles, New York, Washington">
    Person name 2
</li>

What is the best way in jQuery to select all persons with “New York” in the data-city attribute?

    $('[data-city*="New York"]')
