Hello evryone

My name is Aldarion im 22 yrs old and live in Oslo, Norway.
Im planning on moving to NY and live a couple of years(Maybe forever) and have some (many) questions.

1.What is the average rent prize on a appartment in NY.(about 40-50Squaremeters). is Queens close to manhattan. sounds like a nice place there.
(I pay about 1200$ in Oslo.

2.How much to buy an appartment in same size.(Costs about US700.000-800.000$ in Oslo)

3. And if i want to buy can i get a loan in US or do i have to take up a loan in Norway.

4. How is the job market in NY? is it easy to get jobs there as a chef or cook (i am an educated cook).

5.Whats the average salary per. month. i earn about 3500$ (20$ per hour)


6. Were do i apply for an work permit. (US embassy?)

7. How much does it cost too live in NY (food, taxi, subway, electrisity, etc.) in average a month.

8.and lots of other questions.......

You may want to talk with a relocation specialist to answer most of your questions. Also check out NYTimes website for jobs/real estate.
Queens is very close to NYC, watch your neighborhoods though!
