is it pretty normal to spend 5k/mo on rent?
- mrguyorama 3y agoIn the places where a young adult makes $250k a year? In NYC $3600 a month gets you a small room. If you want to have the luxury of a dedicated, doored off bedroom, you will be paying significantly more than that. Sure hope your girlfriend/wife/boyfriend is also a FAANG superstar so you can afford to live together.
- HDThoreaun 3y agoLiterally millions of people live in the luxury of a dedicated, doored off bedroom in NYC for a third of that.
- mrguyorama 3y agoWhere can you get a 1 bedroom apartment in NYC for $1300 a month without locking in a rate controlled apartment 25 years ago?
- HDThoreaun 3y agoThey're available in the bronx and staten. Most new yorkers have roommates though. It is not difficult to find a 2 bed (2 people get the luxury of a dedicated, doored off bedroom) for $2400 in any of the boroughs, although many neighborhoods are certainly out.
- 2c2c2c 3y agowould love to know more about you and your background. I always drill into these threads because I find peoples' perspectives on basic living necessities fascinating do you live in a major city, or have any experience living in one? it took me about five seconds to find a $2300 2bedroom apartment for rent in brooklyn. it's more optimal to rent this and roomate with a friend for split rent, but if you absolutely have to live alone you can probably get down to $1800 for a studio.
