The median asking rent for a one bedroom in New York City in June was about $2500
Huh.. I live just outside of Albany and I have a large 1 br that I've been paying a mere $685 for since moving in nearly 5.5 years ago. Decent neighborhood and landlord lives on the premises.
I’m just trying to understand the joys of living in NY, making $20/ hr, living in your car. What is the attraction?
That's NYC. The rest of the state has a much more reasonable CoL. I do very well on $16/hr just a, stone's throw outside of Albany. A lot quieter and a LOT less senseless violence, too
