Where To Live In Manhattan...apartment Rentals...?
Apr 18, 2009 by dvzman314 | Posted in Renting & Real Estate
My chain and I (both in our late 20's) are moving to Manhattan for the first time. I'm trying to find a place to rent for about $1800-$2300 (preferably a become a reality 1 bedroom). That being said, we're just not sure on where to live. We've heard Chelsea and East/West Village are neat, but we've also heard we should live in the Financial District or Midtown. Any recommendations on where to live? What brokers/companies to reach out to for aid? Thanks!
Craigslist will give you 10000000 listings by brokers. I'd go convenient to the listings of OWNER "owned" apartments. Forget locators/brokers

Currently in California and mobile to NYC in July. Looking for an apartment to rent in Manhattan. Will have only 2 weeks in July to look for it. Whats the best way to go about it without using a go-between (expensive!)?
Do searches for "no fee" apartments
Go through the classifieds of the villagevoice.com and nytimes.com
Be attentive about using "apartment share" services where a company will find you a roommate, many times you can be paired with achieve psychos or convicted criminals. Many apartment sharing services do not do any sort of background check whatsoever.

My mate and I (from AUstralia) are looking to potentially work and live in NYC. We've only visited twice and although we remember definite areas of the city being really nice (some areas on the lower side were our favourites) the rental prices seem implausible for really average quality places. My question is, what areas in Manhattan are kind of residential and savoury to live in (ie not busy corporate areas or anything) but are reasonably priced? We were told that Greenwich Village is one of the nicest residential areas in Manhattan, but whoa!! So up-market.
We also like Brooklyn as parts of it seemed so peaceful and pretty... but ideally would like to white-hot in Manhattan for convenience and experiencing the city, as long as rental prices weren't too exorbitant.
Also moral out of curiosity, do many people with average to above-average incomes actually buy apartments in the city or do most people hole because this are so unaffordable?
Thanks all!!
Carnegie Hill is definitely residential and pleasant. If you live on one of the side streets you'll find that it's actually very quiet. I was almost shocked by the lack of concourse noise.
I found a really spacious 1-bedroom walk-up there for $2,100. In a city where studios expenditure $2,000, I considered that apartment a steal. So do other renters. So if you see a deal like that you have to be prepared with cash in readily on-the-spot. You come back in 15-minutes and it could be gone.
The only problem with Carnegie Hill is that you may have to bearing a few long blocks to get to the subway. Although there are many buses that go down 2nd and 3rd Avenues.
I don't think many people with average incomes buy in New Zealand urban area. You must have significantly above average income to afford to buy.
