No surprises.

You all wouldn’t believe what some buildings charge per month for a 3 bedroom in midtown.

I mean , unless you’re some big shot tech guy or business person, affording anything decent in midtown without government assistance is basically impossible .

If anything “decent” is what’s listen on zillow even a big shot tech guy is going to think long and hard about those prices. Unless you’re paying a grandfathered rent you’d need to be in the top of your field before mudtown prices will seem “reasonable”.

I work at an investment bank in Midtown Manhattan. I don’t think any of the senior people in my department are living in Manhattan at this point. Even the MD lives in like Astoria in Queens.

It feels like everyone living in midtown is in the fields of tech, law, finance, or a doctor.

Tech nerd, lawyers, or Doctors would not even be able to afford the apartments I’m talking about.

Uh they can and they do? Also midtown isn’t even a desirable location. A family of two professionals can absolutely afford 15k a month in rent.
