NYC is on the rise, but keep in mind that all the formerly fulltimers that were axed during September's crunch are now freelancing and underbidding. Many may remain freelancers for a while, but others are probably selling themselves short to fulltime gigs. If you and your BF come here, expect to pay $2k/mo for an apartment and have an additional $500-1k in monthly expenses.
If dual income can sustain you, it might be worth fighting the other interviewees. Especially if you have a kickaxe folio that is vastly different from the NYC design bubble.
