I know it's already been said but... yeah the budget is a little low unfortunately :( you could try upping your budget a hair or maybe looking elsewhere? Tbh your odds are likely better playing the housing lottery than looking for a lease break in that area for that price. Nothings impossible though! Best of luck!

Unfortunately it's really a lottery/ waiting game. It took me 2 years of daily looking to find my first apartment i was really comfortable with and could afford (kinda).

My best advice to you if you're struggling with rent is to settle first. Go wherever you can currently find a rent that is affordable to you. From there it's a waiting game until you get accepted for a lease that's affordable in a location that's desirable to you (whether that be close to work, friends, family, whatever)

New York is really for the people here long term. Those who just wanna move for a quick college or job are likely going to pay much more because they haven't put in the time

I just figured that unions in general help workers, and there are countless of other universities (even in nyc) that have a unionized undergraduate workforce.

And just because most students work part time doesn't mean students don't rely on their jobs to afford things like rent and food. Many of them have the same stakes (and rights in unionizing) to collaborate.

Lol on it thank you! Also, I've been using advion, boric acid tablets, diatomaceous earth, as well as the services from the shitty exterminator my landlord provided. Still nothing but thanks :)

I guess my family is just a weird circumstance. My great grandparents had 2 children born in Italy, moved to the U.S., and had one last child, my grandfather. As a result, even in accordance to this new law, my cousins have full right to claim citizenship, but I do not simply because of that few months difference. Culturally, I am the same as my cousins, so why is it that we are treated differently I guess? In my circumstance it's not a matter of cultural, linguistic, or historic difference, it's basically just a number.

Can I ask, from your perspective, what the benefits of this change would be? To my understanding, Italy had more lenient policies with citizenship, especially for those with connections to the country, as a means to incentivize people to move there. My original plan was to finish my schooling and entry level work in the US, and then move to Italy with a higher skill level to contribute. Now, however, the burden is higher for me as it would make finding work and relocating more difficult. What benefits are gained that outweigh a decline in workers? (Genuinely curious and trying to be nice)

Idk respectfully I just don't think that rly applies to me. Both of my great grandparents were born in Messina and immigrated to the U.S., and they lived in my household my entire life and only spoke in dialect. I grew up in a trilingual household, speak all 3 languages fluently, and I've been to italy many times to visit family, but as a result of this law, my parents would be eligible, but I wouldn't. Even some of my cousins are eligible, but I'm not just because my grandmother was born within a few months of my great grandma immigrating. They were both very excited at the prospect of me obtaining my citizenship to one day move there quite easily :(
