This article did not make a good case for living in NYC. "If your apartment has no heat, hot water, or kitchen, you may get away with not paying for a couple month's rent!"
I mean I had an entire 2BR house to myself with a yard and a garden and a deck, with a full kitchen in the middle of the city 10 min drive from Downtown, Hollywood for $1500 a month.
Also it doesn't snow here.
Moving to NYC where the only way to save a buck is to get a studio apartment with no kitchen or heat is really making me rethink this NYC thing..
