  • New York City has now become one of the least affordable places to live on the planet, and families now need to make 318k per year to live "comfortably". Is it still worth it?

    Born in Manhattan, I lived in Brooklyn until I was 13. My parents moved us to South Florida. I was employed by Ma Bell in Miami and at 19 I took a transfer to New York Telephone. It was exciting. I was working in the World Trade Center as it was being constructed. Drafted 6 months later and returned four years later to a place that was in bankruptcy. Police, Firemen, Sanitation, and Taxis on strike.
    I'd gotten married three years before to a South Jersey Girl. There was no way she'd live there and neither one of us wanted to raise children there. So I did four years of commuting to and from New Jersey. It's no way to live. So, I took another transfer South to North Carolina. Reasonably priced, decent people and in a big city. The reasonable costs allowed us to own an ocean front house to rent out in summers. Now it's our pension. We've also bought and sold a number of condos. Our son got a good education as an engineer at one of the five best engineering schools. A state school and reasonably priced. And, I get to own guns and a concealed carry permit. So does my wife. A necessity nowadays. Too many Northerners moved here and brought the Democrat Party with them. They also brought liberal criminal laws and liberal judges.
    Had I stayed in New York and New Jersey I'd never have done so well.
    It pains me to criticize New York City. It's been my family's home since 1627 when they came from the Netherlands with a couple of hundred years of farming in New Jersey. The city is an exciting place but I don't see the use of living there any longer. It's unsafe, and far too expensive.

For a while it was the people coming over from Cali but its gotten so much worse. Ill never be able to afford a home doing a trade job because im almost always outbid by some NY resident that can come do a job from there and live here and im only making the AZ income standard. We see it all the times with property management companies buying out entire blocks of homes to rent out.

      The problem is the property management companies renting out for top dollar. Here in NYC, we have rich foreigners buy up luxury real estate and take space off the market. If developers weren't catering to the high end, people might stay in NYC. Unfortunately, everyone is chasing the money so they are always looking for the highest dollar.

      @@neanam , I'm glad you've found something reasonably good for you! I'm on the "East Coast" and I own my home, paid it off 3 yrs ago, Thank you Lord! But one of my friends had rented a 2 bedroom apartment about 15 yrs ago and it was around ~$700/mo with full furnishings, washer/dryer inside their unit, utilities included etc. And this was I'd say about ~700-900 sq ft apartment not like these "shoeboxes with a toilet" in NY. NY is just going to be expensive period because of the higher taxes etc. Even though there may be some "positives", renting is always going to be generally _undesirable_ when compared to paying on a mortgage just because you'll never own the "apartment/home" that you're renting unless given the "rent with option to buy." I rented for 5 yrs and there were some positives, especially when I was younger but ideally I wanted to have something to show for all of those monthly payments other than "just a temporary place to stay." Thankfully now I do, I can borrow against my home, buy another home and rent this one out or sell it or just live payment-free besides taxes and insurance which are just a fraction of mortgage/rental payments.

Nothing is sacred in the city except going out to the eastern boroughs of Queens and maybe BK. For example, Penn or Grand stations both have the LIRR that takes you to neighborhoods in Queens where you can live with much less crime and BS than Manhattan has and in less than an hour. The neighborhoods are so much more vibrant and full of activity, unlike NYC which has just simply gone to poo. I"'ve been commuting for over a decade from the Great Neck area and I did live on the UES, BK, Astoria, and finally where I am today.

The benefits of AI and automation accrue almost entire to people who are in control of capital and resources. BTW, people often interchange 'middle class' with 'working class'. Most people who consider themselves 'middle class' are in fact working class. There is no more room in NYC for working class people. The city is for the rich. The working class will move to Jersey. Everyone else will move to Alabama.

Do you know a lot of New Yorkers who keep talking about the fact that they want to leave, but never do?” And I said, “Oh, yes.” And he said, “Why do you think they don’t leave?” And I gave him different banal theories. And he said, “Oh, I don’t think it’s that way at all.” He said, “I think that New York is the new model for the new concentration camp, where the camp has been built by the inmates themselves, and the inmates are the guards, and they have this pride in this thing that they’ve built-they’ve built their own prison-and so they exist in a state of schizophrenia where they are both guards and prisoners. And as a result they no longer have-having been lobotomized-the capacity to leave the prison they’ve made or even to see it as a prison.” And then he went into his pocket, and he took out a seed for a tree, and he said, “This is a pine tree.” And he put it in my hand. And he said, “Escape before it’s too late.

      They hold these empty apartments because they are seen as a hedge against inflation, the billionaires don't want to store all their money in dollars in banks, and US stocks are already a massive bubble.
      Why don't they just buy stocks? Because there is something called PE ratio, Price to earnings and most of the investable companies are already over 100 to 1 PE ratio meaning that its most likely a bubble

      @exposure_in_the_elements, I'm glad you were able to _escape_ and I'm not going to ask where you are but it sounds like you're in a better place! I expect that without Joe Bribery's "Bidenomix/BidINFLATION", you'd likely be paying even less. I'm hoping that if it's your goal, you can work on establishing a mortgage! I rented for a number of years and sometimes it was good just because you didn't have to deal with maintenance etc., but the lack of privacy, land and having nothing to show for it after 5 yrs of renting, made me more determined not rent in the future if I could help it. Those NY rental prices are just off the charts for what amounts to a "living space" that's less than the "master bathroom" in some homes.... My brother's "tool shed" is larger than some of those apartments. I can get a metal garage 20'x40'x12' "150mph wind certified", delivered and setup for less than $14,000, yet some people in NY are paying more to rent a "closet with a toilet" for 3-6 months. It ought to be criminal!

    I'm a musician, I live in Manhattan, and I've survived comfortably on less than $30k per year including saving for retirement. Many of my friends are in Brooklyn with a similar income and they make it work. Even my heroes, jazz musicians who tour the world and teach at the most prestigious universities in NY, probably make on average between $50k and $100k per year. It's doable if you're not competing with your "friends" on instagram for who looks the coolest while actually being broke. Yes it's expensive, yes the opportunities for anyone under the age of about 40 are absolutely garbage compared to previous generations, but you can still cook your own dinner, pay your own bills, and give everyone the finger if you budget well. Just my opinion.

But they're catching up, inflating at around 20% per year! Median house prices in Australia nationwide around $1 million. The problem here is there is nowhere to go. From Sydney to tiny outback towns, everywhere is full, there's simply nothing to rent. And governments everywhere seem powerless to act because that would upset landlords!

      The reason you have more affordable housing in Japan is the mixed use zoning, and the constant reconstruction of buildings. I think I read somewhere that buildings become uninsurable after like 30 years in Japan, and pretty much have to be rebuilt. That forces the building of apartments that meet the current needs much better. Instead of 100 year old buildings that have been sub divided a hundred times.
      Also the mixed use zoning is helpful. When I went to Japan it surprised me how an they had an auto-mechanic store in the bottom part of a building that had apartments in it. That's apparently very common in Tokyo, unlike cities like NYC.
      It also helps that Tokyo doesn't have the crime, and frankly lack of community care that western countries have. Walk around a major western city and you are assaulted with beggars and the smell of piss, in Japan you don't have that, and the streets are clean as well.

I'm so glad I moved off grid before co vid hit. Because my landlord was already talking about a big price and signing a two-year lease increase before co vid! And my landlord told me I was the second best tenant have you ever had. But the more I did the worse it got. Freedom means everything now more money goes in my pocket!

    First time back to NYC last week in 18 years…. Stayed around Soho…but walked everywhere 4k-7k a day to site see and we were looking for venues for parties and biz functions in 2025. Some nice spots…but shocked how dirty, smells, Graffiti, construction, then was topped off with a rat coming at me in subway…. Biased, I live in the 4th cleanest Country in the World…and our region even cleaner… BUT How can anyone pay these prices to live here? No way. I wouldn’t live there if paid €500k. Crazy.

      The quote is trade-offs, not compromises. However he's exactly right.

    And they welcomed 180,000 more people and are still coming who will not be able to afford to live there also. Soon NYC will be just millionaires and immigrants

      NYC has the most generous welfare state in America by far. Rent control, housing projects, food stamps and free healthcare, legal stealing, etc. I think it's now just college students, the poor living off the government, and super-elite professionals making over 1M/year.

      They got free votes coming in. All they have to do is make them think they have a chance
