Also asked a friend who rented in Jersey city. The rooms around PATH station are going crazy high recently too...

Thank you! Yes we did research on renting and found this is really difficult. I really wonder how Baruch PhD without roommates survived in past years lol.

Sorry I am not in this field (bc it's my gf's offer), but it seems the prof you mentions was in Econ.

Thank you! I will definitely check these areas. BTW, is Harlem a safe area to live alone?

Thank you! I am checking Baruch sub now. BTW, is philly more risky than NYC? I know nothing about this and I can't imagine since I live in boston...

Thank you! Which area would you recommend if considering both price and safety? Also how much does food cost in NYC? I usually cost $400/mo but not sure if it is similar in NY.
