yeah, the tuition is bad enough. finding an apartment is going to be really rough. so is the area of Brooklyn Pratt is located around relatively safe?

DUMBO seems pretty good.

who is telling you bad stuff about Brooklyn? people from Boston?
if so they don't know what they are talking about. many parts of brooklyn are really great.
- armsbottomer0
that's good to hear. and yes, the negativity is mostly coming from Bostonians.

dumbo is also shit expensive..
I am biased to say that brooklyn is better to live in then manhattan....
but .... williamsburg...greenpoint....slo... nice places to live....

brooklyn is nice, but pricey if you want to be around bedford ave/williamsburg. i found a great place in the upper east side. there are always alternatives if you cant afford a place in midtown, and youll probably find a place that suits you.

NYC is the shit. I'd live there if I could afford it, seriously. plus I have family obligations that keep me tied to this dusty ass desert.
But that's why I'm drinking now! Happy Saturday and Irish fuckin whatever...

i've been here since october and fucking love it. i'm going to agree with everyone else on saying you either need it/love it or you won't like it. i would definitely recomment a trip and checking out all areas to find out what you like. don't believe the hype. everyone's going to say their neighborhood is the shit because thats how everyone acts up here anyway - always repping what they do and who they are.
e-pill's right. it offers endless opportunity in an extremely competitive environment. to say you can find the same type of opportunity in the midwest or in smaller cities is totally false. i find new ones every day.

... also being around top notch people in whatever business you're in is probably the most inspiring part about the city. everyone you meet is doing something interesting. you have to be working hard to stay afloat and that breeds a lot of interesting things. definitely can't say that about anywhere i lived in the midwest.

name calling?? maybe jevad called you a few names but dont get pissy at me for writing dumb as shit comments as you did.
dont try even to figure anything into what i write, as i live here in nyc, eric wants advice.
dont think that living in a small town means smarter people pr what ever it is you wrote i dont care...means nothing...so if you want you can re-iterate all i wrote...idiot!!

if you like peope who think they are more important than they really are...then yes move to the NyC
ps
no one really like paying alot of money to live with rats in a shoebox, they do it because they heard it makes them cooler

actually I have lived in many cities including NyC...and I am there at least once a month..sorry if I have a different opinion
I wasn't re-iterating, grab a dictonary
- e-pill0
your opinion is that we llive with rats in tiny shoe boxes to be cool...
claim anything you like but your comments speak far greater than any city you live in.
so what ever it is you are or what ever it is you claim to be, what ever!! and who the hell cares, you have proven yourself to be a troll here and look its only 5 posts in.
different of opinions?? you dont have any it seems but stereotypical hate.
ok so show me a dictionary like it matters??
- SHESHIPHESHIP0

Small Apartments, shitty landlords, over crowding, rats, rude people...heaven.

I didn't say it was "cool" I was pointing out the not so great parts of living in this city.
You know like we deal with the overcrowding and such, because it offers us so much more.
It was an attempt at being clever.

there is lots of work, and lots to do – for a city.
but in particular, I find NY to be a concrete cage. Its a pain in the ass to get in and out of, and if you want some descent nature its a real pain to get out of and find some (the hamptons dont count as its so pretentious its not worth it).
So again, lots of work, pretty high cost of living (coming in third to SF and then Boston I believe), lots to do city-wise, but if you live on the island I always felt rather stuck. on the island.
