Re: New Yorkers, where would you live in NYC for $3k/mo?

For 3k/month, I hope you're buying.
Yeah the city is cool but I'd buy in Cobble Hill or the Slope right now. These places will not decrease in value.
As far as convenience, you're as close to your bars & restaurants in Brooklyn or some places in Queens as you are in the city. It takes me 25 minutes to get most places north of 21 and and only a little longer to get further. In my experience you'll spend that at least that long in transit from withing manhattan.
Plus it's nice in the boroughs, and it usually doesn't smell like garbage.
But for 3k, you can probably be very choosy about where you end up. That's a lot to pay, even in NYC (possibly not for a high-rolling 2+2'er).

Some of you guys are completely ignoring his original criteria. If he likes Soho and going out to bars in Manhattan obviously he doesnt want to live there.
