1. Uber: ~$250-300 a month

2. Rent the Runway: $150 a month

3. Laundry: ~$40 a month + Dry cleaning (can be the in 100s)

4. Water is payed for by the building, electricity averages $100 a month.

5. Food: This one is tougher. If I order pad thai, I can eat it for two days and its $6 a day. If I order lobster pasta, its $40 and I eat it all right then! According to mint I spend $500 a month on average. But some of what I pay for is in cash so it could be more.

It's definitely not cheaper to live like this but it's much less friction! :)

thanks for the candid answer; I can certainly see the appeal, and the laundry bill is _surprisingly good_ + would add a big convenience factor too, that's one I might have taken up on if I were still in a city.

Food I can definitely see, and if I would splurge this is probably where I'd do it. Those uber costs though, - not having your own car as well seems like a much harder trade.
