@@ketugrahagraha3673 So since I live in this monopoly city I'll tell you in some cases for example, if you pay 1500 in most cases in Manhattan where they're looking is just the rent, very few add some (at least 2) utilities within that amount. Its fucking ridiculous. I don't know who the hell wants to live like that, you're wasting more than what you can try to save. When you look outside of the city into the the other 4 boroughs depending on the neighborhoods you can find a bit more for less, or more for about the same, and those agai. are with some utilities and very rare with ALL utilities included. At the end of the way it's what you make like for instance a minimum wage job they typically pays $15-$17 dollars isn't going to cut it here, you'll need another form of income, if not try to land a pretty decent job... NYC is fun but actually living here will honestly suck you dry.

Born and raised in NYC, and stuff like this is why there needs to be a huge overhaul of the renting laws and standards in NYC. Some people don't agree with me but all I'm saying is things need to change because You shouldn't be able to rent out what is basically a storage closet for 800 plus a month, there need to be set standards like how a room must have a window and a closet for it to legally be considered a bedroom. I could understand paying higher rent for a studio apartment with a nice kitchen with new modern appliances for 1300$ to 1500$ but instead we are seeing tiny closet like this go for these prices, we need some regulation on the amount you can charge for the amount of space you are renting out.

I pay $735 for a 1 bedroom just outside of Columbus, Ohio (in cols I'd be paying 1000K for same apt) ...our cost of living is going up in Cols, Ohio bc more ppl are moving here (bc cost if living is going up so much in the big cities), but I didn't know Texas was cheaper than Ohio ... I may need to move there.

I was lucky to find my current place for a very cheap price and it’s bigger than all these apartments combined. Seriously I’m not joking. The last tenant was here for years which is why the rent is reasonably low. I’m also in NY. The first apartment is great for someone who just moved and is looking to get used to NY before getting a career and moving up. The other two literally raised my anxiety

I could handle living in a tiny place, but I draw the line at not having a private bathroom in my own place. When I lived in the dorms, I cooked my own meals 3 days of the week or I'd eat out. Then I moved off campus because I just didn't want to live on campus and for my safety because I was getting bullied by some of the residents. The only off campus housing I could afford were once 120 sq ft. dorms that had been renovated into tiny apartments. The "bathroom" wasn't even a room because there was no door. It was just a toilet and shower, and I hung up curtains for separating it from the living/sleeping area. The kitchen was just a counter with a fridge under it, sink, and a 2 burner stove. My entire apartment was the size of a bedroom, including the "kitchen" and "bathroom". But it was all mine, quiet, and I was safe.

That's not what its about honestly. They're offering a product. They don't control the cost of living in the hot spot areas of NYC. With the big city comes many conveniences, opportunities, and numerous/various/diverse communities, clubs, or creeds to be a part of. You can't expect there to be white picket fenced, 2000 sqft single family homes with a garage, large front/ back yard, and a nice driveway entrance in the middle of downtown NYC...or LA, and Chicago for that matter. You're looking at the point of these apartments existing at the wrong angle. They're not jammed packed units for the sake of squeezing more dollars out of the same amount of sqft. They are satisfying a demand from people that want to live in those hot spots regardless.
