From my personal experience of living in Murray hill, uws, ues, nomad/gramercy, and like the nyu/soho/Chinatown area, I can say all 5 of those were solid places to live. Definitely depends on what you are looking for more specifically as all have their pros and cons relatively but overall all were solid spots in manhattan.
Thanks! I have never been to NY so I don't know where to start my search. Which did you prefer west or east side of midtown?
I don’t know if I ever lived in midtown per se as a neighborhood of residence so can’t speak too much to the difference. I’m currently living on the west side of manhattan but the east side is good too. Not too much of a difference at a high level in my humble opinion
#1 West village
#2 Hells Kitchen
#3 park slope
those are the best neighborhoods to be gay in in NYC I don’t make the rules
Chelsea sucks too many homosexuals there
haha thanks for the info
Second the West Village as #1, was lucky enough to find an affordable spot there and felt "different" than the rest of Manhattan. Was quiet in the morning, had a lovely neighborhood vibe, and some of my favorite food spots in the city (I'Sodi, 4 Charles, and Bleeker St Pizza to name a few).
LES is also pretty decent from what I heard (GF lived off Houston near Clinton Baking), and had a TJ's a couple blocks away for groceries.
Working in MidTown is fine but I wouldn't want to live there personally. Chelsea would probably round out the top 3, good spots for the weekend, and easy access to touristy spots for when friends/family visit (i.e. Chelsea Market, High Line, Hudson Yards, etc).
Thanks this helps a lot. What about midtown do you not like personally? Do you not like the tourist vibe?
This is a solid list for young professionals.
1. East Village
LES & East Village are personal favorites
Yes - if you know, you know
There's absolutely ZERO subway service though. Did they finally open the Ave. A entrance to the L? I like the area, but think it would be miserable to commute from though. Where are you going to go uptown/downtown? Astor Place?
West Village is far better than East Village if you have money
No

Miami, because New York can suck it. Enjoy your taxes, dying small business scene, shitty liberal protestors/looters, and awful infrastructure. I'll gladly keep my beachfront property for a comparable price point, superior nightlife, hotter women, and my money thanks.
Ok boomer
We're probably the same age dude c'mon now...
Fair points. Miami has been solid for a long time. Prob some of the benefits of being in a red state compared to a blue state plus the climate. Obv decisions are more complicated for each individual but high level I think you make good points. I hope it’s going well for you down there
Red state and red city
How would it be for one who doesn’t know Spanish?
I don't speak a lick and it's awesome. Knowing Spanish just unlocks another game mode.
You should have stopped with more reasonable COL and beachfront, you had a reasonable point there.
Yeah see, you just have no idea what the heck you're talking about. A Miami 7/8 is a NYC 9/10. The really gorgeous women want to be out on boats with ripped rich guys not office-locked pale fuckbois. We also have 24/7 nightclubs and none of your retarded vaccine requirements so it's not even remotely close.
No one cares, retard. The thread wasn't about Miami
hahaha
Aw NYC bb is mad someone's shitting on his shitty city boo hoo :'(
Hell’s Kitchen, West Village are gay areas
My vote goes to EV/LES
Chelsea is my go to. Just has a magical feeling. I’d probably go with West Village as # 1, Chelsea #2, and Tribeca #3.
