Do you guys think $2k/single is over the top expensive/hard to manage?

That is relative to your situation.

 

Now what do you get with the $2k? Door person, parking, high floor, views, etc.. You don't really want to blow away your income on just housing. That is the largest expense and you would want to keep it low and not constrict your style.

 

$2k in fidi is not bad.

Yes..try Brooklyn(Park Slope,Downtown,Red Hook,Clinton Hill) ...You can find something much more reasonable...because 2k only covers housing you are going to need money to party...right ? lol

 

But you would have a better shot with a cheaper place...and Brooklyn is usually about 15 -30 mins to the city via the train...Have fun...NYC is a great place..just got to work it

Also a big fan of the financial district, excellent subway access, close to the water, quieter at night than other areas. You will be taking lots of late night long subway rides though if you like to go uptown or to the park, but once I moved down there, I hardly ever went as far north as Times Square any more. Cabs back and forth from Tribeca, Soho, LES, Village are also manageable.

Dude, just look at Astoria/Queens. N-W lines are better than most in my opinion.

 

I bet you half the population of Manhattan is people that thought moving to nyc meant automatically going there. Many parts of Brooklyn are kind of annoying with all its bad drivers and fake diversity.

I'd ideally like to live in fidi... seems like a great place. Problem is just figuring out what expenses will be like depending on how much I spend on housing.
