i used to live there. its very very expensive. be prepared to spend over 2000$ a month for rent to live in an apartment thats as big as a walk in closet. subway and bus transit cards are $76 a month (metro card) buy it with ur credit card cuz if u lose it, u can get the money credited back to u. once u learn ur way around the subway system, u will never get lost, they come about every 5-10 mins during the day, at like 3 am maybe every 20-40 depending on which train. food emporium has the best groceries and most selection. gristedes is expensive. taxies are $2.50 initial charge, 40 cents every 4 blocks (2 aves). they have surcharges depending on the time of day. (1$ more during rush hour. .50 cents more at nite) lol as expensive as it is, i miss nyc!! basically from uptown to midtown is 13 bucks, and 15 midtown to downtown. any more q's?
