I agree with Jon here on how changing streets can change prices and commute time. When I first moved to New York I stayed really far away (1-1.5 hr subway commute to work in midtown). The result was under $500 in rent. Needed to save on rent so had no other choice. My tip is staying in jersey city (hoboken, exchange place) can look like a steal - so close to Manhattan, cheap rent. Jersey to Manhattan during rush hour and weekend is totally different. 20 minutes subway ride can turn into 1 hour subway + ferry ride. Same place can take twice as much time to get to on Weekend v/s weekday.
@HProTech 3 жыл бұрын
I lived on the main avenue 1 block from the subway. If I added a 10 minute walk to my subway station (make the commute even longer 😅😅) I probably could have saved $50-100 per month

@barbaramuzychka3836 3 жыл бұрын
@@HereBeBarr There are lots of people in jersey who have moved to Atlantic Highlands and just take the ferry to their job in Manhattan. Quick and pleasant commute. Yes, the ferry is expensive, but if they live in The Highlands or areas of Middletown NJ, they are close to Atlantic Highlands and the price of property is probably half of property in NYC.

Lol! Your landlord had a lot of nerve to offer you your apt for the same price and if I remember correctly you moved to Park Slope for more room. Then rented it out for $1000 less. Good for you and Adrianna for getting a larger place. I lived in the Bronx many many yrs ago. 182-183 Creston Ave. 1 block over from Gr Concourse. Easy access to #4 train and #1&2 bus plus Express bus used to stop on the corner of the Concourse. If I remember correctly the apts in the Bronx are large too. I moved to The Bronx by way of upstate NY. Grandmother lived in the Bronx. I now live in NC. This was a good video. 👍🏽

Families moving here with school age children need to pick areas that have good public schools. The Upper East Side is known for it's good schools, family parks and great shopping/restaurant options. Rents here are now very affordable. You can find a 1 bedroom for around $1800-2100 in a walk-up and $2400+ in a doorman building which is a real bargain for this area!

The 4 most important things for me when picking a neighborhood: First, being close to near subway connection unless you have access to a car. Second is distance, how far you're willing to travel to the city (Manhattan). The closer you live to Manhattan, the more expensive the rent is. Third is conveyance...being close proximity to supermarkets, bars, etc. Fourth is safety. Yes there's a pros and cons to every neighborhood, but there are neighborhoods which the cons outweighs more of the pros.

Very simple. Take a walk in that neighborhood, in the summer, at night, on the weekend. If it's loud, rowdy and dirty, it's going to be like that all the time.

Many places do have connections to local & express busses, or even dollar cabs in Brooklyn. Don't be a lazy snob & take the bus.

I’m not sure why I don’t jump. I will only get Street easy on my phone for years during lull time is at work. I would prefer the upper Westside or Hells kitchen area not the east side of Manhattan at all. Yes I’m in eighth or 9th St., Sorry, eighth or ninth Avenue type of guy.My age doesn’t bother me at all because I have no expectations of labels or love whatever happens will be a wonderful surprise. Closest subway access is important to me because the weather would be different well will be different than California. I am certain I will need a small monitor television device set of the weather at all times so I can prepare and not become aggravated. I think the Upper Westside would do nicely a studio with some prewar touches, the abundance of shops of all kinds, Ennius quieter which is what I am more used to.

here is a tip right off the back to know if the Neighborhood if bad. if the Neighborhood has a liquor stores with in every few blocks. to the point there are more than 8 liquor stores in a small walk that is a sign of a Neighborhood to stay away from.
