I'm shocked at how difficult it is to find a decent--or any--tanning salon in NYC, namely lower Manhattan, South Bronx, and Downtown Brooklyn. Is this some sort of phenomenon, or am I missing something? The ones that appear in a Google search tend not to exist anymore. Money is not an object; just cleanliness and proximity. Please help

Italian-Americans love to tan and then get defensive when people think they are Latino so look for areas where Italian-Americans live.

Manhattan is wasp/jewish country, not too many tanning salons.

Perhaps a trip to New Jersey might help. Its also difficult to find showrooms selling Hummers here, and fake-marble lions for the entry gate are simply impossible to get.

Talk a walk in the Sun for 40 minutes or more a day if you can.
It's better for you and you'll get the Vitamin D
you are going to need for the up coming winter.

OMG is this Snooki?!

On a serious note, I've seen TONS of tanning salons around. If fact, I always past by one in particular on W 4th & 7th Ave. on the second floor with the words "TANNING SALON" flashing above the Bank of America.

Here's a bunch-
