I plan on doing an internship in New York City-area for 3-4 starting at the end of May and will be there, more than likely, until the end of August. I need somewhere to stay, but can only go $650/month max.
Is this even possible? What are some areas relatively close? Other suggestions? I already looked into hostels and it’s just not cost-efficient for me. I tried looking on Craigslist for temporary housing/sublets but it’s too early to get a good idea.
You should definitely be able to find “someplace” to stay for $650. per month (granted it won’t be the Ritz Hotel). Look in the Village Voice–look in areas like the East Village (Manhattan) for roommates or summer sublets. (A little known fact is that NYC tends to clear out in the summer–most people are away for vacations and/or students leave, so there are more summer sublets available–but start looking for them now!) I’m suggesting the East Village because it is safe, convenient & close to all subway & bus lines. It is still relatively inexpensive–as far as NYC goes + so much happens there. It is close to NYU, so there are tons of grad students & others doing internships of all kinds. Hope you enjoy your time in NYC. It’s a great place to be!
