Thinking of moving to NYC for work. From researching, I’ve found Queens to be the most affordable and easiest to get into Midtown for work.

If you lived in the area, let me know what you think on best living locations for a young professional with little money.

I’ve traveled as a full stack/blockchain digital no and for two years. I settled in London, the opposite of cheap, but an amazing and incomparable city.

To your point, Queens is a decent place to live; I prefer Brooklyn, though. Biased, I was born and raised there.

Globally, with little money, Budapest is an amazing place to live for next to nothing.

Bangkok is better. I had the best four months there, and it’s cheaper than anything you will get in Europe - also gorgeous in the right areas. Highly, highly recommended.

Porto, and Lisbon, are dope cities and pretty affordable.

If you’re willing to live in Queens, though… consider a borough of London, man. It’s just incredible. If you’re in Zone 2, or on the edges of Zone 1, you can get a good flat for £1k… and the city is a 2x of NYC, IMO.

Good luck. Here if you have questions. ✌️
