Moving on...choosing the right neighborhood!

These past few weeks have been a complete whirlwind of events, projects, and people! Full summary updates coming soon, but I wanted to share this great resource found via NY Magazine.

As a recent graduate, for months now I've been struggling with the thought of deciding where to move once I have a job (I was no so adventurous that I went out and found an apartment while still in job search mode). NY Magazine had a great issue about a month back, "The Best Place to Live in NY is..."

It was a really informative issue with a lot of information, but the best part was a supplementary feature on their website, "The Livability Calculator."



As you adjust your priorities (nightlife, cost, safety, etc) when it comes to housing, the list of neighborhoods adjusts with it. This is a great tool, especially for those of us who are visually oriented! I'm still on the job search, but I'm going to keep on researching. This did bring up a new neighborhood that seems great that I hadn't considered, Sunnyside Queens. Any thoughts on neighborhoods lived in or living in?!
