What monthly price it will take to live in big cities of USA like New york?|111849

I am leaving my country india and i want to take a good shelter in new york. So I want to know what is the monthly price of living in the house of this area.

2 thousand dollars for a bad house. Not including water, air, heat, trash, groceries, transportation, toll roads, eatting out, taxes.

Move to a smaller large town..NY is not the nicest place... unless your just visiting. I would pick Dallas, Austin, Wichita, San Jose, Little Rock, areas like that.

depends on the area, if you are single then you may find a studio apt for around

1,000 a month to rent an apt (need 3-4 months as deposit)
76 public transporation a month
400-600 in food depending on your habits
then theres extras like
80 cell phone
100 light _ gas
to name a few expenses!

there are other options if you dont mind sharing a room, on craiglist website you can find affordable furnished rooms for rent between 150-200 a week which some include internet, phone,light _ gas. you will just share kitchen and bathroom.
