Someone please help. New York City - 5 Answers Random Answers, Critics, Comments, Opinions : 1 : If you mean Housing from the state then, you have to be on a long waiting list. what you can do is live in an upstate new york town , take a 2 hour train ride and get a job in down town... good luck 2 : Go on craigslist.org, look at the apartment listings (under no-fee) and/or shares (roommate situations), look up where the inexpensive ones are, and think about whether you can save up enough to get a start here in a safe area. If you're really set on moving to NYC, you might start by living upstate or in NJ and commuting, as someone else said. If it's just "big city" you want, understand that there are much cheaper options than NYC...but then NYC is unique... Good luck. 3 : NYC is a great place to live, there are great oppurtunities there to make some serious cabbage if you have the skills! If your lucky enought to find even a studio apartment be ready to shell out some serious money, living is not cheap in NY. You could consider moving further upstate and commute to the city for work or play! Long Island is also an option but again not cheap but a bit closer to the city and the traffic is brutal on 495 but for the right money who care's! Search through realtor.com for rentals maybe you could share a place with a few good people! Or call a realtor from NY and they will give you a heads up! Do your home work before you go! Maybe you should go for a visit first and look around so you have a better idea of what your getting into! Good Luck 4 : NYC is a great place to live and work. However, you will want to find a job first. Depending on your skills, its actually harder than you may think. 90% of employers require a 4 year degree to even grant you an interview. The starting pay is usually only around 30-35 k a year, which is good in other cities, but in NY is barely making ends meet. As far as housing, you will need first and last months, and security deposit, so plan on about 3500 if you find a cheap apartment. If you look very hard you may find something closer to 1000 a month, but you may be pretty far from the city. Try craigslist and or look for a roommate, or a few roommates. 5 : its very expensive to live in ny
