What to Know Before Moving to NYC

The perspective of a New Yorker on what to know before you move to NYC. New York is not an easy place to live but it is an easy place to fall in love with. I wanted to share my experience as someone who grew up here and has lived in NYC for around 3 years now.

Your New York based videos always make me want to visit. 😂So you're definitely doing a good job! And yes, I totally understand about living in a "transient" type of city... I also face this. At times, you're left all solo when ppl move away. That part kind of sucks. So which borough would you say generally is the most cost friendly to live in?? (I'm sure they all have maybe cheaper areas to stay) Btw... kind of like the Sunday morning video drops. Something to look forward to☺️

[@justin_bernstein]

Hahah I’m glad! Yeah guess that’s just part of life and how friend groups ebb and flow, doesn’t make it suck any less though lol. As for the borough really depends on the area, I have a friend or two in Queens and Brooklyn and they seem to be doing well cost wise. I’d say Manhattan overall is going to be the most consistently expensive. Thanks! Yeah I’ve been trying to stay consistent for Sunday morning to hold myself accountable but glad to hear you like it too! I’ll probably stick to Sundays as my day and if I can squeeze 2x week it’ll be Wednesday too

Love this video dude. I'm a Tribeca resident myself, around the same age as you. Every point you made in this video is so valid and I really enjoy how you weave in storytelling for things like your experiences with friends. Your camera angles are dope too, I gotta get one of those Rode mics so I can have a bit more freedom with camera placement...

[@justin_bernstein]

Glad it resonated with you and thanks for watching! Appreciate the compliment, still feels weird recording in public but pushing myself to get out hahah. The wireless mics and gorillapod are a combo I’m starting to love

[@ForeverForwardPod]

@@justin_bernstein Good stuff brother. I'll look into the Gorillapod as well.

Looking to move this summer- what’s a good range for a studio or bedroom? And best value neighborhood ?

[@justin_bernstein]

Price wise depends on area. Generally I’d say 2-3k for a studio and 3.5-4.5k for a one bedroom, really does depend on area though, this is Manhattan and Brooklyn mainly. Value neighborhoods depend on what you’re looking for, generally the further out from downtown Manhattan the cheaper it gets and varies by the desirability of the area. I can speak for Manhattan mainly so within here you’ll see people go far upper west or east side, midtown east and west too to save a little cash

he might have good things to say; but the audio quality is so bad - I cannot hear anything .😢

Working on getting better!
