I read that whole exchange eager to learn the secret of an affordable one bedroom apartment in New York and the secret is rent part of a place with roommates. I can only chuckle.

Having a roommate is my choice; you can confirm the number ranges I gave for studios and 1BRs in those neighborhoods on most sites.

I’ve never paid more than $2,000/mo in rent in NYC, and that was a 1BR in Manhattan in 2018.

In this whole exchange you implied you lived in a 1br apt for $1.6k in a cool area today, but now it comes out you share a 3br. I also chuckled

I double-checked what I’ve written, and nowhere do I imply that. I said that one can find a 1BR.

I don’t mean to denigrate the decision to live with roommates, I have for plenty of my life and may well again - I just wish NYC wasn’t so expensive!
