The cheaper rents will not last long in my opinion. Most have common terraces, washer/dryer or laundry, etc.

The commute is about the same from Astoria; could be cheaper on the Terrace. I have many friends in Astoria and it is not cheap by any means.

Thank you for your advice. I will check it out.

Industrial sector of Ohio has been hurting for years and there is no jobs there for many folks. Young people see this as an oppurtunity to move out and flock to cities like NY. I have met alot of Ohioans in NYC as of lately. I would go to Ohio to bang alot of single mothers that live there who are not as stuck up as New York single mothers.

You are right...My professor said that a lot of college students leave ohio after graduate...
If you go to downtown Columbus, you will not see many cars and people on the street...and when summer comes and students back home,this city becomes a ghost city....
