So I was working at my weekend job and I ran into a man who used to live in NYC! He talked to me for a little bit and started giving me the info he thought I needed to know about living in the city...
What I learned:
-Brooklyn offers nicer places for less money than Manhattan.
-Eating out is generally cheaper in NY than eating in. (Because the price of groceries is high just like the rent, you might as well get Chinese take-out instead ;))
-Brooklyn is actually closer to downtown than the Upper East and West Sides. Just take a quick trip across the notoriously dirty East River! Haha...
So he recommended I look at apartments in: Park Slope, Williamsburg, Prospect Heights, & Crown Heights...
Thank you, Stranger, for making this competition between Manhattan and Brooklyn a little more INTERESTING! I promise to check it out!
