“that’s why everyone abandons NYC every twenty years or so.
If it were not for the illegal immigrants Brooklyn would be a ghost town.”
There was just a study saying how Brooklyn has become not only more affluent, but more college educated and whiter over the past 10 years. Seems to say exactly the opposite of what you are saying. But you know better than the facts, right??
Take a look around you sweety. These homes are ALL millions of dollars!!!
Only low life around here is you, 4:16. Or should I say…DC VISITOR….
You poor folks who must be working in 30K a year jobs have NO CLUE how many people in this city are making a ton of money, do you??
I have friends literally out of college making 200K a year.
You all really need to talk to someone other than your cat once in a while.
This is a city for the very rich and the very poor.
regular people can have much much better lives elsewhere. that’s why everyone abandons NYC every twenty years or so.
If it were not for the illegal immigrants Brooklyn would be a ghost town. No one in their right mind would spend this sort of money to live in such a vulgar and low-lifey place.
“150k ain’t gonna buy you a decent brownstone.”
Nope, but it bought me a great apartment in a brownstone in Park Slope and a vacation home (apt) in Buenos Aires. I feel pretty good about it. I’m only 29, you realize. I didn’t expect, nor do I need a browstone at this stage of the game as a single person.
4:07 what are you talking about? I believe the median income for jobs in manhattan is 100 or more than double the national average
The median income in Manhattan is over 85K a year.
Double that of the United States.
If you work in finance, any visual or performing art, fashion, graphic design, architectural concept design, modelling, advertising, publishing, and others, New York City is the place to be.
150k ain’t gonna buy you a decent brownstone.
4:01 – no, my friends living in Boston are not boring at all – another typical dismissive post on this thread! Again, I do love NYC, so you don’t need to sell me on its merits – but I’m just saying that not everyone loves it as much or feels the sacrifices of living here are worth it. This does not make them boring – it’s just a different choice. It’s like people who say suburbs are death – well, maybe for some people but not for others. It just irks me how the supposedly inquenchable demand for NYC is somehow used as an excuse to justify rampant price increases – but that cannot work forever. Prices are softening, and there are cycles in NYC real estate (we’re heading towards a downward now). The overall phenemonon of NYC being an exciting, fascinating place with a few well-paid people (but the vast majority not as well-paid — take a look at median incomes) won’t change that.
I moved from DC to New York 5 years ago.
Reason:
I was so bored I almost died.
