New York City, New York

Founded in 1624 by the Dutch, New York City's history goes back to at least 1500.It's one of the most populous urban areas in the world where over 170 languages are spoken and most of the 8,000,000 plus people who live in the city will proudly defend it.

The history of New York City is one of great opposites. From industrial scions who built early skyscrapers and mansions to the people who survived the tenements of Hells Kitchen and the Lower East Side, the tapestry of the city continues to reweave itself. It's one of the most exciting and interesting places to live.

The Five Boroughs

New York City consists of five boroughs: Queens, Brooklyn, The Bronx, Staten Island, and, of course, Manhattan. Each is unique. Each has its own characteristics. Each is special. When you start your search for your New York apartment, you'll want to consider proximity to work or school.

The transit system is one of the few that runs 24 hours a day, but some commutes can be long. Each area will also offer up various price ranges. Manhattan real estate is some of the most expensive in the world yet affordable apartments can be found. The other boroughs offer different styles of architecture, lifestyles and their own benefits.

Brooklyn has several hot areas and is now loved by artists. Staten Island offers water views and more space. Queens is perfect for people who work in Manhattan and want the convenience but more space and fewer tall buildings. The Bronx is revitalizing and is exciting.

The City Never Sleeps

As with any city this large, there is virtually everything to do. Even long term residents visit what are considered tourist spots and most even keep a guidebook around too. One of the benefits of living in such a city is that there is always something to do - 24 hours a day.

There's a reason it's called the city that never sleeps. It doesn't! When you find your New York apartment, you'll discover there's so much to do within blocks of home. You'll find plenty of outdoor space for sports, beaches that are a subway ride away, and quiet places to watch the boats on the rivers or in the harbor.

Best Ethnic Choices in the World

Because New York City has such a huge immigrant population, the variety in restaurants is vast. There are whole areas for specific types. Around 26th and Lexington in Manhattan, it's called Little India.

There's Chinatown and Little Italy on the Lower East Side. Queens is known for its Greek restaurants. Brighton Beach in Brooklyn is home to a number of Russian restaurants and a whole community of Russians. Find fabulous soul food in Harlem and all types of Latino foods in the Bronx.

Party All Night Long

Nightlife is similar. You can find anything any night of the week. The trendiest clubs are in SoHo in downtown Manhattan. Get a copy of TimeOut to figure out what's the hottest one - this week. Find great theatre in Brooklyn as well as on Broadway. Every borough has concert venues both large and small. Once in your New York City apartment, you find things right on your own block as well as across town.
