That's because you choose to live more lavishly than you should, yes? Assuming you have the same bills as everyone else and lived frugally away from the glamour and lights, You could easily stack 75k to 100k a year, no?

You are gonna have to do some hunting in Astoria or Sunset Park. Last 2 neighborhoods in reasonable distance to the city at this price range. But finding apartments at my price will not be easy. If we move it will be close to Queensboro Plaza and the 21st Street Queensbridge F train stop, but not prime Long Island city real Estate. There are lower demand pockets that you'll only find by walking around in the neighborhood. Online only has about 25% of the true available listings and are leftovers of what's left after the rest get gobbled up by locals.

You can live in a nice spot in parts of NY for less but you gotta be a smart bargain hunter.
I think he's a banker
That is not the average. Your stupid Canadian ass doesn't know what you're talking about.

200k?
either your standards for living good are unreasonably high or your expenses are out of control
you could live comfy and have a good amount to save/invest each month making near 200k in NY
I think @BLAZO da GAWD posted once about those NJ to NY monthly tolls being like $300.00+? Nobody should be spending a car note on tolls a month just to get to work.
It's seeming like that's the trick. If you want to live in NY you can't live alone unless you're a six figure dude. So I can see how all the coli posters are doing it, but what about everybody else?
Not true, I make about 60k a year, and I live alone. No debt or car note, and I'm managing just fine
I Work For The MTA So I Can't Go Anywhere Else And Make This Kinda MoneyI Ain't Tryna Live In Jersey Either And Take On Even More Expenses
Me And My Girl Got A Nice Nest Egg So I'm Hoping We Can Get A Decent Condo Or CoOp, The shyt Has To Be Really Nice Though, That's My Plan

Gentrification is hitting every big city....
when chicago and detroit gets cleaned up, those prices will rise as well
just like DC and ATL is rising without the transportation to back it up.
Of course West Bumblefukk Tennessee gonna have dirt cheap prices..

New York City is literally a tenth of the state of New York. They have a lot of country spots once you leave the city. I've thought about buying a log cabin or at least renting.
