this is what $ 2,700 rent gets you in new york

My rent is around $3200 and my APT is much bigger than that. I have a 1 BR on Madison and 50's that's around 780ish SQFT btw.

IDK where that apartment is located or what building it's in. A lot of variables to consider.

EDIT: Now that I know the address-Of course it'll be that much for such little space :lol:

So much truth to this.

I lived in Battery Park City before moving to my new place 7 months ago and the only reason why Is because I wanted to live across the street from my office. 95% of the people working in that area live close to work.
 
No **** NY real estate is expensive, especially that location and view. Nters stay beating a dead horse.
 
I've lived in both cities and I would pay for that over whatever I'd get in Miami for the same price any day of the week.

So the point of this thread is that New York Real Estate/Rent is expensive?

We just out here stating the obvious now? :lol:

If you have the money, and that location is convenient for you, right by Battery Park, with that spectacular view and roof deck, why not?

And if you broke and can't **** with it, don't.

your paying well over $30,000  a year to live inside of a small room in the business district
newark new jersey is 23 minutes away ...location is the most important
factor in real estate but you cant be giving up that much , you're living in a tree house

plus new york city has a world class public transit system , that doesnt necessarily mean location is void but damn
you like 12 minutes from harlem

:rofl: the mta is garbage
 
There is a moment of sheer panic when I realize that Paul's apartment overlooks the park...

And is obviously more expensive than mine.

Huh?
 
If you are single, balling, and work in the area, why not?

That is a lot of "if's" tho.

Financial District living is fine if you work in the Financial District. Otherwise there's not much to it.

I dunno.. I work in the Flat Iron District and live in the Financial District.. Honestly, I like it.. it's peaceful at night and every train is within walking distance.

I do miss living in SoHo though.
 
If your looking to move to NYC which borough, would fit for reasonable living. I was looking at Staten Island.
 
As long as we're talking about real estate.

best place to look for reasonable rents in Los Angeles?

Stay Away from Staten Island, unless you're okay with taking a stupid ferry in and out of the borough :lol:

Stick to Queens or Brooklyn.

Staten Island shouldn't even be a borough as far as I'm concerned. It's isolated as hell. Depending on your budget I'd say anything above 140th in Manhattan. Spots in Queens and Bk, and some places in the Bx, but like the western part of the bx.
