I dunno why people always say NY is expensive... have you ever lived there? Live in NJ, rent a basement somewhere in Queens, or heck you can rent an apartment in Chinatown for $800/month. I know people who rent an entire floor, and then sub-rent it to their friends, so they end up paying $0.00 for rent.
Don't eat out everyday. Bring your lunch everyday. It can be done.
- omegant 13y agoWhy is chinatown so cheap? How livable are those apartments?.
- look_lookatme 13y agoI would think a Manhattan Chinatown full apt for anything less than 2K would be a unicorn. However the parent is right about Jersey and Queens. Also places on the Metro North or LIRR. It's entirely possible to live near NYC and work there everyday for a reasonable cost of living.
