Different strokes.
Other people don't understand why someone would pay $4,000/month to live in an NYC apartment that would maybe qualify as a large closet elsewhere.
- leephillips 5y agoThat they’re willing to pay that should tell you something!
- Turing_Machine 5y agoAs I said, different strokes. I'd soon go batshit crazy (to the extent I'm not already) living in that kind of cramped space surrounded by that kind of population density.
- leephillips 5y agoOh, I understand. Most of the people I know who grew up in less dense places feel the same way.
- pksebben 5y agoI grew up in Brooklyn, and I'm currently on team rural. I couldn't think straight with all those noises and distractions, and I was going broke trying to keep up with rent hikes.

The problem is that zoning rules have essentially regulated these sorts of suburbs out of existence. See: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MWsGBRdK2N0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MWsGBRdK2N0
