@crystaluncut: Replying to @Nasim now im definitely not saying NYC is cheap by any any any means, it’s still a very expensive city but i think the fact that you don’t need to pay for transportation makes it more affordable than it looks from the outside looking in. another reason why it’ll always win the NYC vs LA debate in this house! AGAIN i want to be super clear that i’m not saying it’s cheap i just think people don’t realize how much they spend on their cars #nyccostofliving #nyc #nycvsla #nycprices
I honestly never thought of this. $500 a month payment, $200 a month insurance, $200 a month gas. I could easily make $3000 in rent if I didn’t have those.

Not being in traffic, not looking for parking, paying for parking, walking to/from parking. It's a lifestyle.

It's also soooo easy to do stuff for free and cheap here. I know bars that $15 will have me lit for the night.

NYC native here! I somewhat agree. It's more expensive for the amount of space you get, the apts are TINY.

I fully agree with this. I’m so over having a car (it’s completely paid off and a hybrid so excellent on gas). It’s so expensive.

also i feel like people forget about the other boroughs. you can live right outside of manhattan in queens for much cheaper.

And parking. I used to live in LA and you will pay for parking everywhere you go. Including your apartment.
