Where are some areas with a reasonable price range in New York? -

me and my best friend are planning on moving to new york in the nxt year, and i just want to know where we shoudl start looking for apartments- we definitely dont want to live in manhattan, but maybe somewhere in the other borroughs??

There are some reasonable places in Brooklyn. I d check in Bensonhurst or Gravesend. Both have subway lines serving them. Bensonhurst has markets under the D train el that has very reasonable prices too.Staten Island is expensive and even if you find something reasonable, it s either an expensive Express Bus to the City or a long ride by bus and train, or bus, ferry and train to get to the City.

Not queens. My friends live there and even though the apartments are nice, the rooms are extremely small. If you put a queen-sized bed, that s one. Nothing else can go in and there is little space to move around. Also, the prices seem unreasonable for such small rooms. Queens however is a nice city in general.The Bronx has good prices for apartments. And the rooms are pretty good in size too. Just pick a good, clean neighborhood to stay in. I don t know about Brooklyn or Staten Island.

How much money for 1 week holiday in Chicago? -

In the X-Mas week, roughly the 29th of December, how do i go to La Guardia Airport from close to New Ark? -

I have to catch a flight from La Guardia Airport. Since i am a tourist and shall have baggage, what is the best way to travel from a place close to New Ark Airport straight to La Guardia Airport? Also the flight time (take off time) would be 10:30am in the morning. So what time should i leave in the morning from near New Ark keeping the traffic in mind to go to La Guardia?

The best ways to get to Manhattan from Newark are by taxi, or by AirTrain. The AirTrain brings you into Manhattan, and it can take you to Penn Station from Newark for just over ten dollars, which is more affordable than taking a taxi -- I would suggest not taking a taxi, as traffic is sometimes deathly on the way back from Newark, so I think the AirTrain is your best option.More information on the AirTrain:http://www.panynj.gov/airports/ewr-airtr��Itinerary Planning with the AirTrain:http://atisweb.njtransit.com/cgi-bin/iti��Map of AirTrain:http://www.panynj.gov/airports/pdf/ewr-a��I am not sure whether or not you can use the AirTrain, even if you are not coming from Newark, but I believe you can. If not, then the taxi would be your option. The mornings are sometimes bad in the morning going into Manhattan from Newark, so I would allot yourself some time, in case of traffic.From Penn Station, whether you get there by AirTrain or by taxi, you can take the A train line southward to the Howard Beach station, which empties right at one of the entrances to John F. Kennedy International Airport. From there, you can follow the signs to ticketing and baggage checking and security, and then you will be on your way.All the best ?
