I'm in a small town with a damn nice house that sits on a one-acre lot, for an $1100/mo mortgage payment.

How these city hicks pay up to/over $5000/mo just to rent a crappy studio is just perplexing to me. We live on completely different planets.

Opportunities, if you are an up and coming "white collar professional" hoping to make it big in your industry then you owe it to yourself to live near one of these dystopian paradises.

Rent must be going up because the space for business rent on the ground floors of these apartments are vacant and the landlords are trying to recover some money they have lost since covid drove everyone out of nyc. After they discovered they have been living in a shithole their whole life and paying out of the arse to do so, they aren't going back.

I'm not about the lifestyle but I imagine the vast majority of their waking hours isn't in their apartment b/c of their job (that they wouldn't have where you live) doing all sorts of activities (that also do not exist where you live) interacting with people on their socio-professional level (who I imagine are rare where you live)
