Do they exist? Well I'm sure they eXist but wat type of place can that get you?

I got a new job and I can basically work in any city that has an opening for my specific title...I'm in Cali now and Im trying to move across country , wanna try new shyt.

I got people I Boston but I'd rather try NY, I got a cousin out there, she pays 1500 a month for a small ass apartment in Crown Heightz BK with a roomate:what:.
I'm sure it depends on the area/borough but I wanna stay within a 1 hr commute to JFK (not using a car)

I've looked online at various rental sites but it really don't help because I have no idea what the area is like. What's some chill spots for trans plants? It ain't gotta be in grenage village or no shyt but not the pj's either.
I could possibly swing $2k a month for rent but I'd rather not.
also I wanna avoid the hipster/gentrification areas if possible


ny blows boston out of the water especially if you're black. \\

when did she lease said apartment?

I live around the way and have paid between 1000-1600 for a 1 bedroom.
I have a 3 bedroom now that runs me around 3k.

ch/ph is the place to be in the whole city.

After they get enough black and latinos to leave the city they will lower the rent again.

Add the cost of food, gas, water, and lights to the 1500-1600k.

I think she moved there this past summer..few people in here said it's hard to believe that she and her roomate pay 3000 for a small apt in Crown heights, so it's possible she pays bulk of the rent cause I do remember her saying her roomate is gone alot, weeks at a time..who knows .

yeah, rents went up a lot recently but eh, sounds like she's loosing her shirt. I think a 1 bedroom is around 2k month tops still. When I moved back from Europe 3 years ago or so I got a 1 bedroom for $1000 then last year I paid 1600. Now I have a real 3 and that's around 3k and I catch deals granted I paid a brokerage fee but I write all of that off.

I'd say it's the neighborhood/area to shoot for. fort greene and clinton hill have a mixed bag on subway access and bed stuy is still pretty hood/no subway.

wburgh and bushwick more specifically are far from lower manhattan but there's cool stuff out there no matter how hard I lampoon it. I was out there tonight and had fun.

NY nikkas wanna act like it's only the rent that's expensive.. Like they ain't paying $5 for a big mac.. unless there's like a $40k+ difference in Salary, it's not worth the cold weather and the high ass cost of living.. I'll stay south:camby:
