    As someone who lives in much smaller cities, it's crazy to see how different things are there. In downtown there you said a sunlight window is kind of a luxury. Where I live, minimum wage is around $13 and hour, and rent for a 900 square foot apartment is about $900-$1000. Sunlight and open space windows are easy to come by, even downtown. I do live in a smaller city, so not as much available, but still more than enough. I rent a 3 bedroom updated house with huge garage, fireplace, one acre of land on the outskirts of the city for $1475. Plenty of shopping and restaurants not far, and driving isn't to grid locked on rush hour. New York is just such a different place for sure! For me, yeah being closer to downtown is convenient, but it should cost less for a smaller apartment with less quiet, louder neighborhoods, and most likely rats everywhere.

      The only change I'd make is recommend that instead of the double bed, she should get a tatami and shikibuton (Japanese futon). I have more space than she does, but I have this setup in my room. Every day, I simply roll the bed up, and it opens the space for other uses. (I personally use it as a small home gym.) Then, at night, I roll that bad boy back down.

    The first one is my favorite, easy. I'm a homebody, so nightlife isn't super important for me. I DO like to entertain (if I had friends-lol) and have a comfortable and relaxing home space. That huge private patio is an amazing bonus and it has almost all the modern amenities you could want. Didn't notice if it had a dishwasher, disposal, or trash compactor. If you can find 2 other people you could live with, that one is certainly a steal of a deal. I'm not familiar with NY, so I'm not sure where Harlem is in relation to say, NYC, Manhattan, Soho, the Bronx, etc, or what the parking situation is like. Definitely loved the bathroom with the wavy textured walls. lol

      @@spennels - Pardon, but I was born and raised in NYC. The most exciting place on earth to live, in my estimation, is the country. If you don't need to spend so much money, you don't need to earn so much. Actors crowd together paying $2,000 a piece for a shared small apartment while breaking their backs working restaurants or other jobs till they can break in. Often they go without meals. Wall St. makes great cash - but they do that wherever they live, most preferably in their mansions in Westchester or Connecticut. Give me an entire house with a view of mountains and forests, where I live now, freedom from fear and having to always lock the doors, freedom from the paranoia so necessary while walking the streets of NY, from from roaches, freedom from the stench of urine every time I use the subway, freedom from polluted air where you rush inside and shut the windows in order to be able to breathe, and a bowl of beans, and I'm happy.

    Wow! I moved out of my beautiful apartment @ 26 W 88th street. It was between CPW & Columbus. They were selling the building. It was 2016. The rent for 1 bedroom, brownstone walk up was 2400. I can’t imagine what it is renting for now! I Loved it there…
