TO ANYONE IN MANHATTAN:
If you are looking for a roommate, my friend Jessica is looking to move there sometime in late August/September (depending on when she can find a roommate). Are any of you looking for one or know of someone who is? She definitely wants to be in Manhattan.

what area and how much does she want to pay?

she says that she'd pay up to $1000/mo. she'd love to live in the city, but if she can't, as close as possible. less than a 45 min commute probably. she didn't specify on a neighborhood.

for under $1000, Hell's Kitchen (my area) is great...good area, rents not ourageous. Also Lower east side is great and not too expensive. Alphabet city is cheap...and dirty.
Outside:
A really good place is Astoria, Queens. It has 5 trains that run through it (maybe more) into the city and is the closet area of queens to the city. Some parts of Astoria is a 10 min commute to midtown. It's also relatively inexpensive and has a LOT of young people there now. Very diverse neighborhood, LOTS of greek people. She might even find a one bed for less than 1K there.
Williamsburg Brooklyn is a little overrated and expensive now too. Park Slope is lovely but pricey and far. All in all for a fast commute, Brooklyn is not the fastest outer burrough to get into the city.
Ill keep my ears open about ppl needing roomies.
