There are also lots of other reasons the tip of manhattan may have been more expensive—for example, it's just the oldest part of the city, so everything started there and expanded outwards.
- ethanbond 5y agoYeah, according to Streeteasy West Village is about $1900/sqft and UWS is about $1400/sqft.
- Wowfunhappy 5y ago...that might not be the best metric, I bet there are fewer super small apartments to be had on the UWS! I know the village has a fair number of places that were built before current laws about minimum square feet per apartment. I don't know what the right metric would be—maybe median rent or even family income? I guess I also don't really think you can tell much from all this.)
