How you a full grown adult living in a walk-in closet. She dont got a kitchen or a dining room or a living room, her bathroom is the size of a toilet stall and her bed is four inches from the ceiling. You CANT AFFORD to live there. New York is not for you. Why are you doing this to yourself :cacbaby:

bu bu bu but I want to see the bright lights and tall building and so many sights.
And people wonder why real estate scam the shyt outta people and fukk it up for anyone not filthy rich.
It is sad that so many people want to live in the city and are willing to have 10 roommates, pay insane rents, and live in super small apartments for the sake of saying they live in the city. Most people don't understand, but most of the people that live in the city are probably not from New York, especially in the expensive neighborhoods.
To the original topic, nobody thinks its cool to pay so much for rent, people actually hate it but its just supply and demand.

Ya'll are crazy. You can get a brand new bedroom house BUILT for 150k here in OKC. Your mortgage would be like $950 a month. A 50k salary here is equal to 65 to 70k anywhere else. Matter of fact. I live in a luxury apt for 760. OKC is the place to be for land and property.
Yeah, but then you'd be living in Oklahoma.

People who move to New York say they did so for "the bright lights", the culture, the food, living in a 24 hour city, having thousands of bars/clubs/restaurants/stores to pick from.
The reality is though...after you've lived in New York for a few months, you will hate Times Square and avoid it all costs.
24 hour stores are cool but, realistically, how often will you need to go grab paper plates at 4:17am on a tuesday night?
New York has 1500 nightlife venues, 900 bars, 5,000 restaurants (pulling these numbers from the web). And a rough guesstimate of maybe 5,000 clothing/fashion stores. That's amazing to think about. But your azz will never go to all of them. You're gonna find the places you like and stick to them
A smaller city like Chicago or D.C. might have 200 clubs, 200 bars, 1000 restaurants and the stores might only stay open to 12 midnight. You're not missing out on anything. Your life will be fine. And you actually get to live like a human being. Personally, I think Chicago is a great alternative to New York. It has the skyscrapers, the urban density you want and its 1/4 the cost.
