$6,000 a month for a 2 bedroom civilian barracks apartment?
A sucker born every day...
You pay a premium price to be in Manhattan, rather than the outer boroughs.
I would pay that to NOT live anywhere in New York.
Wonder what “The Rent is Too Damn High” guy is saying now?
Beat me to it...
how will these uninvited guests pay for this? prostitution? theft? election muling? bagmen for bidens 10%?
Manhattan definitely needs a couple hundred thousand Illegal Aliens to compliment their city...
That’s about 5% per year since I moved to Manhattan in 1977. I rented a large 1 bedroom with a balcony on the 16th floor of a nice doorman highrise on 80th and 1st for $450.
Thank you.
Just...... thank you.
Democrats may talk a good game about being the biggest protectors and defenders of the poor and middle class against the big bad rich people and their corporations. But give them the reins of power over a city or state long enough and they make it much too expensive to live and survive for everyone except the rich and wealthy.

$5588 a month is just ever so slightly out of my price range.
How much for a cardboard box in an alleyway?
New York the new Chicago east.
So using 1/3 as max percentage of income to rental fee, using the $5588 per month rent X 12 Months yields a required income just over $200,000 yearly income. WOW!
Which is not an exceptional income these days, what with UPS drivers about to make $170,000 in their new contracts. $200,000 is the old $50,000 of 20 years ago.
Must be a lot of Biden type criminals to afford that.

Most of the cheapest cities to live are also controlled by RATS:

I might consider living temporarily for one year in Manhattan
if you paid me at least one million dollars.
Maybe.
