Review of New York, New York


Single family home takes on a new meaning in NYC
Star Rating - 2/3/2007
I can't imagine how people can consider themselves happy to live in an overcrowded, overinflated city like NY where 2/3 of the population are renters and renters of apartments to boot. Single family home to these people mean living in an apartment that's not shared with friends or other family just to be able to make the rent payment. I don't care how many cultural amenities are available if you have to pay premium money just to live in a cracker box where you have to worry about whether your neighbors are going to do something careless that will cause your building to burn down overnight.

People in NY would turn up their noses at salaries in many other states, but what they don't realize is that the lower salaries balance out with the also lower cost of living.

There's no way I could live in a place like that-ever-and nothing can convince me otherwise. You can have it!
