I'm in NYC.
Brooklyn.
1 bedroom a block from the 3/4 train.
$1,500 a month.
Everyone complains about rent prices here, and rightfully so in many cases, but you're paying for access. You're in the epicenter of the fucking world. Any and everything is in NYC. That allows more of a possibility to also make a lot of fucking money. The sky is the limit.
Gentrification is a mess though. Not fucking here for that. They truly are the problem when it comes to rent in NYC. That's another story.
