Living Cheap - Tiny NYC Apartment Tour ($699/month) Micro Studio

The beeping actually is still loud asf inside

I love how a window and a "decent size" bedroom is the justification for $2,000 a month! new yorkers are crazy

I love them going through the entire first apartment without mentioning the CONSTANT LOUD BEEPING

New Yorkers are actually crazy, I get the city is desirable but the living conditions they put themselves through at astronomical prices for what you get just to be in NYC is crazy to me. Majority of apartments in Cash's channel (who I think is legit a great content creator btw, great personality) would be illegal here in the UK to be listed as living spaces

“Having sunlight in an apartment that costs 1000$ is pretty good” 🤣🤣🤣

i actually love the very last one, definitely the most livable when it comes down to price and location. she made it so cute and the bathroom is amazing for the price

I love seeing furnished studios and micro studios, so the last tour was a real treat! Yes, it’s quite small but it has all the amenities of a larger space (sans an in-unit washer/dryer). I was pleasantly surprised by the extra storage and the bathroom. She did a lovely job decorating and arranging her space!

Would never pay those insane prices for these apartments but yes, more collabs with Cash please!

The biggest finesse ever. I don't know how they convinced people that this is living.

Growing up in NYC you don’t realize how crazy this is until you move out and eventually start paying cheaper for bigger. I love my city but I’d never move back

As someone who lives in much smaller cities, it's crazy to see how different things are there. In downtown there you said a sunlight window is kind of a luxury. Where I live, minimum wage is around $13 and hour, and rent for a 900 square foot apartment is about $900-$1000. Sunlight and open space windows are easy to come by, even downtown. I do live in a smaller city, so not as much available, but still more than enough. I rent a 3 bedroom updated house with huge garage, fireplace, one acre of land on the outskirts of the city for $1475. Plenty of shopping and restaurants not far, and driving isn't to grid locked on rush hour. New York is just such a different place for sure! For me, yeah being closer to downtown is convenient, but it should cost less for a smaller apartment with less quiet, louder neighborhoods, and most likely rats everywhere.

That last apartment is gorgeous. I could live in the last one. I know it’s all about how you make it a home and what you put in it and how you decorate it but that is so lovely

She did a beautiful job decorating her tiny apartment. It still feels claustrophobic to me, but she did everything she could to minimize that. It looks cozy.

"The paint's not terrible and it has a window - not bad for $1k per person" The fuck - from a confused Brit

The 4th n last apartment was awesome. She was very intentional with the space and utilized her walls and floating shelves well. Reminds me of techniques I see on tiny house Nation/hunting.

The third apartment was so cute! Very well utilized space and beautiful decoration. A winner!

Out of all the apartments, the first one is ideal. However, apartment number 4 was decorated really nicely.

As an European, the prices for those apartments aren’t high, they are insanely high. I can get a penthouse or even a whole Villa for 2/3k per month AND in the center of the city. It’s crazy now expensive US can be when it comes to accommodations.

1:21 I love how he said that loud alarm wasn't that bad once you're inside the apartment. Then we constantly heard it.... still loud as hell.

please more collabs with Cash-- you guys are a great team of resources. The subscriber's apt was my favorite and a steal! I pay far more than that to live in the NYC Burroughs!
