If You Are Aot From NY it is Uncomforable

NY is crazy and exciting, but the quality of life is not good.
I highly recommend the experience of living in New York because it will bring a lot out of you. Once you live here you really will be able to live anywhere - comfortably.
If you are not from the area NY is a very uncomfortable place to live once the novelty wears off. I grew up out west, but after living in NY for 4 years I am ready for "normal" life again- a driveway, washer/dryer, grass, etc. I really miss sunshine, courtesy, and space too.
Forget about buying a place unless you are ok with with living in a shoe box, or you want to commute 40 miles in from New Jersey.
