...I've been in new york (queens)for 11 years(10yrs in my own place) you can definitely find a place within your budget but you will definitely have roommates. $500 = 3/4 roommates or 2 roommates for an apartment for $700/month - that all depends on location.

I like/d our ny base, living there is also great. everything you need is always a few blocks away, no need to leave your burough

Yeah, I lived there too right by the Damen stop and friends still live there.

Glad I don't live there anymore. People getting shot in the street right out in front of your home and robbed all the time is not normal. Use to be a great area.

Also most captains by year's end will be 08-11 hires, you'll be flying majority of the time with someone your age, not your Dad's. If you want big city life you need roommates NYC is insane but there's some good places in Brooklyn or Astoria that are hip.

I can't imagine why no one wanted to hang out with you on the overnights. You sound like such a pleasant person to be around.

You'll have to decide between NYC and the big city life which is slightly more expensive. And going a little outside the city where you can get a lot more for less. CT/NJ/Long island offer some very good spots.

You can save by going out of town. Nothing like living in the Burroughs though. You will have fun living there. Lots of young people and social activity for your time off.

Animal House is a really old movie. This guy is 20 something. Who is dated?
