11:41 – This is what it costs to rent in NICE, well established neighborhoods in NYC. It is still cheaper than most of Manhattan and well within the guidlines of what is affordable for people making good money who want to live in nice neighborhoods.
It is no different than wanting a place in Greenwich Connecticut, Westchester,Manhasset, etc. If you want affordable rent for lower-income, dont look in these neighborhoods – you cant afford it. You are NOT enitled to live in any neighborhood you want if you cant affrod it. That is life, both in and outside of NYC.
Deal
heat and hot water were never included in rent anywhere I have lived before I moved to brooklyn.
WOW heat and hot water included! Does it come with glass in the windows? Doors? A toilet? I know, they get you by overcharging on the cold water. Am I the ONLY one here who does not consider heat and hot water an amenity? Doorman=amenity, Parking=amenity.
F-ing heat and hot water are not an amenity! Can you rent a cheaper apartment without them? No wonder The What is getting more profane with his posts how can you look at this shit every day and not have a problem with it?
These are no more expensive than anywhere else in the prime areas in Brownstone Brooklyn. Sucks but its true.
waaaay cheaper than manhattan.
hey 2:51, iam sure you are real fucking sorry.
True, all anybody has to do is mention Park Slope and the haters come out. I have to point out I don’t live in Park Slope, btw, b/c any defenders will be accused of living there; I live in PLG’s LM.
Park Slope is pricey but it’s still way more affordable than Manhattan neighborhoods with similar amenities. What’s all the whining about?
Park slope haters please grow-up. What is it with the constant hostility. If you dont like it, dont come here. Why do you 12-year-olds feel it necessary to constantly disparrage the neighborhood? What are you trying to accomplish?
Hey 1:32 and 1:38, sorry you can’t afford a decent apartment. Guess you should move.
Number 5 is “so cheap” because it is the only one that is “reasonably” priced.
