Moving to NYC. How’s the cost of living?
I may move to NYC this winter. I’ve been there many times but only for vacation. Would anyone give me an example and some answers such as:
1/ Apartment rental (L.E.S, Gramercy, Soho, Chelsea). How much will it cost? How to find good but not very xpensive apartment? maybe you can recommend any real estate agencies or web resources where I can find owners’ deals.
2/ Grocery (gerneral cost a month)
3/ Transportation (subway pass for a month)
4/ Fitness club. What is the approx cost per month? any recommendations r appreciated.
Many thnx!
1. Look on craigslist, google NYC rentals. Just on a quick search, I put your locations into a rental website. Looks to be about $2000 on up (I narrowed it to studio/1 bedrooms only)

For 2, it would depend on what you purchased and how often. Grocery stores do have more expensive prices in New York City.
3, a 30-day (monthly) unlimited Metrocard (for subway and bus) is $89 per person per month.
4, depends on the gym. Some can be very expensive.
