    I've lived in a lot of different cities. But there's something different about the old east coast cities (Boston, New York, & Philly) and the people that live there. There's a culture that's unique to those cities and each neighborhood in those cities that you don't get anywhere else. It's unique, it's special, and I miss it. I'd move back if it could.

    One thing you kind of glossed over is that where you live mostly depends on how much you can afford. All those neighborhoods you mentioned are for young, early-career, low-end salaried individuals. There are much nicer neighborhoods where you can find deals but you really have to do your homework and probably hire an agent. A lot landlords use agents in order to conduct the credit checks be screening. It also doesn’t make sense to rent in Brooklyn since it’s not that much cheaper than those older neighborhoods you mentioned unless you want to buy a place. Also the closer you live to a train station the more your rent. I really love Union Square, Soho, TriBeCa and the Meatpacking district.

      But there are a lot of other neighborhoods that can probably be a great fit for those watching!

    I moved to NYC by myself almost 20 years ago at 27 yrs old. I had a job and found a room in Hell’s Kitchen with a stranger. Met my husband while there, I brought him back to the west coast after we had a kid. Where you live definitely depends on how much you make. I paid $1,400 for a bedroom in a luxury building 42nd and 11th. It’s expensive my advise would be save enough for 1 years rent before moving there.

    • @movingtoNYCwithLauren

    I lived in Yorkville in 2015 and LOVED it! I paid $1775 for a one bedroom (5th floor, walk up). It was definitely more of a walk to the subway but it was a bit quieter and near the park by the East River 😊

    • @movingtoNYCwithLauren

    Enjoyed this video on NYC. My wife and I are born and raised New Orleanians and at 73, we definitely call this home. However, we love visiting Manhattan, especially the Upper Westside. Whenever we visit Manhattan we either stay in a AirBnb or Hotel in the Upper Westside. Always want to be close to Central Park for my morning jogs, and later a walk to Zabar’s for some deli treats. Broadway is full of shopping opportunities. To us, the Upper Westside is the best neighborhood to experience life in the “Big Apple”.

  • @dylanakent

    NYers never go to tourist traps. Many have never been to the Statue of Liberty, The Empire State Building, etc. All the neighborhoods they are recommending are mostly for people who have great jobs. This is the fantasy NY. People out of college move into these places, stay for a year or two and leave never to return and will brag for their entire lives of "when they lived in NY" *eyeroll* No one, unless they have some kind of legendary career will ever be able to maintain this lifestyle for more than a few years.
    I know some people who have maintained apartments in these places but at great personal cost and great personal compromise. So, they're 40 years old, living in a postage stamp apartment with 3 roommates. They own nothing, haven't bought new clothes in some time and they eat ramen 5 days out of the week. But, hey! They live in the Village! Others have inherited rent controlled apartments that have been in their family for years. They are the exception.
    REAL NYers live in the outskirts of Queens, The Bronx, Brooklyn (not the trendy parts), Staten Island. We realize that Manhattan and some artsy parts of Brooklyn are literally gated communities for the extremely wealthy. You are always on the outside looking in. There are many different NYs and it's all based upon your economic class, your family and your current wealth. For the most part, NY isn't for you, even if you live here. That's the TRUTH from a born and raised NYer who's family has been here for multi-generations.
    If I were you, I'd find a smaller secondary city with a bunch of cool shops, great restaurants that really wants to make a go of it in 2022. Some Midwestern and Southern cities are going through this right now. Go there, make a name for yourself. Be a big fish or a whale in small pond. You will have a much better time, have better connections, things will be cheaper, better quality of life and you'll have a CHANCE of making something of yourself. You can do almost EVERYTHING you can do in NY in a smaller city, much better, cheaper and faster.

    I think you did a good job on getting information on only a small part of Manhattan, as someone who's young and moved here alone at 22, I can tell you that there are so many nicer neighborhoods that offer good pricing and modern renovation, and a lot to do around it! Upper west side and Upper east side pretty much 60-100th have everything you could think of and train access is superb! I know you only had a month to do this so great job none the less!! NYC def takes a solid 2 years to fully grasp the greatness of it and even then that may not be enough time hahaha

  • @bk_deltor9155
    @bk_deltor9155 2 года назад +8

    check out upper Manhattan, the Bronx, queens, Staten, there's so much more than lower Manhattan and the adjacent areas you have here on video and some areas are actually a lot cheaper to the tune of thousands but you'd rather be closer to the visually appealing and the "grunge" of the east village. clearly that guys never been in the Bronx where my grandmother lives. that's the issue with reviewing other YT personalities. they tend to float in nicer fit for video locations.
    Dont trade west coast LA for east coast LA. Also louis Rossman, for NYC street view content, he finally moved out of NY.

    As someone who used to live there, I can say you have a good breakdown of the areas there. You know those areas like the lower East side and the East village we're not so nice when I used to live there. I was part of the first wave of gentrifiers in those areas. Some people at work and such thought I was crazy for hanging out there back then. And it's interesting to see how much those areas changed over the years.

I live in UES in a 6th floor walk up building From 1910, and while it’s obviously still expensive it’s so affordable compared to LES/EV/WV. Plus there are rarely any rats or bugs up here (I’ve never seen in my apt 🤞🏼). I love going downtown but there is SO much up here from restaurants to bars, and Central Park is literally a 10 min walk away. Plus it’s so much quieter and cleaner in general up here. Was happy that I heard Yorkville in the video but I don’t think people realize just how great living uptown is Bc all everyone constantly talks about is “below 14th st.”

You basically get 2 good months in the late spring and early fall. That’s about it. It’s better to do Miami/Palm Beach in winter and Hamptons or Ptown for summer

    Shelby's clever b-rolls made NYC look better than it really is? Maybe Shelby could highlight some of the reasons why NYC is one of the top cities that people are fleeing from?

      Haha - how much of bars, cafes and restaurants can you do especially if you have family/kids or are in early 30's ? So basically NYC is cool for younger generation!

    Ive lived in NYC for my whole life, I think a great place to live in your 20's or 30's is nomad.

      Nomad is such a great neighborhood!
      It’s also crazy to see what they are doing with the neighborhood now.
      It’s literally becoming the place to be.

    Nooooo that's not the HEATTQCH you should get!! Haha
    I love UNIQLO and heattech, what you should get are long sleeve t-shirt one to wear inside of your shirts and heattech leggings!
    Those will keep you warm and you don't have to care about colors and such cuz ppl can't see it

    I lived there for 6 weeks as a surgery caregiver. We stayed at a hotel near Wall Street. Apparently its one of the most expensive areas. My favorite neighborhoods are both East and Grenwich Villages, Chinatown, and Hell's Kitchen. The subway gets really expensive - $40 a week for a 7 unlimited day pass, Ubers take forever because the traffic is so bad, its worth it to subway. Love the pizza and Italian food in Little Italy. About the rats - they're nocturnal so you usually don't see them during the day, but they are cringey!

    Kind of crazy to see the prices of some of these places. I live in Utah and own two townhomes with a combined 4 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms. The combined mortgage payments would roughly get me a 1 bed 1 bath in New York. I’m good where I am.

    • @movingtoNYCwithLauren
      @movingtoNYCwithLauren Год назад

      Yes!! There are so many NYC videos that refuse to mention Hoboken/JC yet they are such great spots to live (that are actually closer to Manhattan than most areas of the other boroughs)

    I moved back to the city from Hawaii. Missed this creative energy so much.
    Great catch, people living here love love NYC.
    They opened the whole store "NY or nowhere" merchandise, I bet it'll do well lol.
    You were right in my neighborhood - Greenwich Village by the Washington Square Park.
    I hope you'll be back. NYC suits you.
