NY people are delusional 4700 a month is a really nice house somwhere else with a home theater and pool. They think they can make it living in NY. The city doesnt offer sh1t but overpriced rent and crime.
Yea I do NOT understand why people live in NY on purpose.
I can bet she is not from NYC maybe LI or upstate chasing that s3x in the city life but not NYC. Yall love generalizing sh1t and grouping people that live in nyc together when there's a difference between transplants and native new yorkers. Native New yorkers mostly live in harlem and the outer boroughs. sh1t a lot of us move over the bridge to jersey we are not paying no damn 4700.
Sum bad need to happen to landlords and property management companies that do this sh1t.
NY is amazing socially and has the most things to do of arguably any city in the world. Something for everyone
How much is the average rent is neighbouring cities in Jersey?
You absolutely can, they probably live in an old a$s apartment in a nice genttified area. Wburg, les, LIC, the village are full of old overpriced apartments. The idea you can't live in NYC in a nice place for what they're even currently paying is a lie.
She probably has a roommate or two bro.

I dont feel sorry for none of yall who stay in NY or LA you mf want the zip code so bad just to say you live in a certain place you if they r@pe yo a$s so the fu#k what right hey at least I live in NY, LA haha dumb a$s .. I live in cleveland just bought my second home for 3k a month on my mortgage I got a fu#king 3200 square foot home 4 bed 3 baths in the burbs while n1ggas complaining about rats I got a full basement that look like a extra apartment under my house .. in Texas you can get damn near a mansion for 200 300k

Okay I get that, but $4700/month for a place that’s mediocre, seems ridiculous unless you making like 10-20k/month. Even if I’m making 10k per month, I’d still be pissed paying something that high.
having to share an already small space, that has cockroaches and rats.
Ain’t no way I’d sign up for that.

If you're making 20k a month why would you tolerate living like that?
I've never lived in such fu#ked up circumstances. The worst I had were roaches the last time I lived in apartment and that was for a few months (the roaches left with Indian neighbors). And I wasn't paying 3k, nor did I have a roomate.

I can somewhat understand the appeal of southern Cali but to pay those prices to live in anywhere in the northeast is crazy to me.
And you can miss me with the "bUt i CAn bUy Kor3An f00D at 3aM".
Ain't no reason to tolerate the level of filth and squalor in many parts of NYC.

I say the same thing about Texas. I don't thnk NY is the only spot like that, but I get what you're saying.
Just move to what spot has what you want.
