First Year Housing

I've done some research on the housing, but I still have a few questions that I could not find the answers to:

  1. Is it Possible to Live in Hoboken as First Year IBD Analyst (in terms of costs, safety, and commute)?
  2. If that's not reasonable, what are my other best options (what are the cheapest places that still have good price-to-quality ratio)?
  3. Why is the financial district cheaper to live in, and what are its pros and cons?

If you have any more housing tips, I'd love to hear them.
