Edison. Where he'll clean up with the down-market and rebellious Ms. Patel set. Think the shop girls, not the IT girls

The only way you could make it in MFH on this low of a salary would be if you had a son like wrassler to feed you hundreds of thousands of dollars any time you asked.

~50% of households earn less than that, what do they do:

As of the latest available data, approximately 47.6% to 48.3% of households in Manhattan (New York County) earn $100,000 or less per year.

While Manhattan is known for its high-income residents, the most recent 2024–2025 estimates indicate a nearly even split between those earning above and below the $100,000 mark.

For reference: wife and I made $110k combined in 2013. We were just dating. We had a junior 1BR ($1875 a month) in lower east side 70’s. Drank wine and four lokos, barely went out. Actually we did once in a while. Had to pay our metro cards. Also both had cars. Nightmare to park but we did it somehow.

Saved nothing. Had to quit private law and do some other lawyer type shit in government now I make $250k and own a house lmao.
