So what's the issue? My antidotal evidence is better than your lack of evidence

Lack of evidence? My evidence is the average rent in the city. Do you really expect someone to afford a $3000 apartment on minimum wage? Lmao

Average rent is such a misleading number. Not everyone is entitled to live in Midtown. I don't, I live in an outer borough because I can afford it. Does your average account for standard deviation?

Yes? It’s not just midtown. It’s everywhere, bro. Get out of your bubble.

Get outside of my bubble? Projecting much?

I don't live in Midtown. What are you even talking about?

Neither do I. I’m probably in the part of Manhattan that’s the closest to livable for a DINK household anyway.
