Tribeca is an awesome neighborhood. You’ll need roommates but you can live there. Walking to work is such a luxury, especially considering nearly all of your peers will be commuting to midtown.
Second this, get 1 or 2 roommates and live no more than 5-10 blocks from work. Walk in the mornings and either walk back at night or a quick Uber if it's late.
I used to walk to the office on 57th/Madison from 65th street and there is something special about just getting up and walking to work in NYC. The energy in the mornings, the guys in the little coffee/bagel shacks on the streets and the feel of the air is indescribable. I was mostly WFH at this office, but enjoyed every walk there. Its refreshing.
Then I realized UES was way too boring to live in and got a place in East Village with the boys. I hardly went to the office, mainly once a month.
Tribeca / SoHo / West Village
Really hard to afford a non-shithole place in Tribeca on an analyst salary. Check out Battery Park.
If you haven’t heard, there will be a new homeless shelter somewhere around Soho or Tribeca area. Ever since the homeless shelters moved into the Upper West Side area, safety in the area has noticeably declined. If I were you, I would refrain from settling on a housing contract in the area. Just my two cents
