Recently moved to New York on the Graduate Visa from Dublin, Ireland. I'm 22, very clean, outgoing and easy to live with. Looking for a fun and laid back shared apartment/house with others in Queens, Astoria, Manhattan or the Upper East Side. I am willing to pay anything from $400-$700 p/m. I am currently seeking an Internship and very punctual when it comes to paying rent and bills. I have excellent references from both Work and landlords.

Thank you for your consideration and please feel free to email me if you have a room available.

Kind Regards,
Casey

Go into an Irish pub in Maspeth Queens or Woodlawn Bronx (Woodlawn is majority Irish immigrants) and you will see postings for rooms to rent for irish. Your best bet is networking through the irish community, because you won't find a room in anywhere but a ghetto area where no one speaks English for your price anywhere else. Take the 4 train to the last stop and hop on the Bx16 bus and get off on Katonah avenue and walk down the street and in the pubs and laundromat a you will see postings for rooms to rent for irish migrants.

If you are female, look for rooms in one of the women's residences.

Do not know whether they are US citizens only. Many of the residents are interns somewhere.

I know there is at least one place, probably very competitive for admission so I would apply early.

I was thinking of the one around 34th as well, only for women though.
They screen everyone and many do not get in.
