Wondering how to work in NYC and commuting home on the weekends?|147427

How could I commute to NYC for the week from Albany and go home for the weekend? I know how to get the train to Grand Central, Is there a way to just get a cheap bed and avoid getting an apartment?

  • Sure, you could check the ads on CraigsList for someone who_s looking for a roommate, and then just rent a bedroom in someone else_s apartment, and you_d be the perfect roommate, too, because you_d be gone on the weekends, so be sure to mention that a LOT when answering the ads.

    Good luck, and the link below is to the Roommates page on CraigsList...
  • What would a cab ride from the vegas strip to Reflection Bay Golf Course (Lake Las Vegas) cost?|172918

    Im going to vegas in a couple of weeks staying at Ballys, and we_re playing golf at Reflection Bay at Lake Las Vegas. Thanks for the help!

  • It will cost about $60 plus tip from Ballys. The taxi cab authority has a chart that lists prices from the airport so you have to add the mileage from Ballys to the Airport and from the airport to Lake Las Vegas.

  • From Bally to Lake Las Vegas/Reflection Bay cost about $50.30 one way

    Sixteen taxicab companies service the Las Vegas valley. When you enter a taxicab, the driver will start the taximeter (referred to as the ��drop��) and an initial charge of $3.30 will register. If a taxi ride originates at McCarran International Airport, an additional airport surcharge of $1.80 per trip is added to the taximeter. After the initial ��drop��, the taximeter will assess a fare of $2.40 per mile ($.20 for each 1/12th of a mile traveled). If the taximeter senses that the taxicab is moving less than 8-12 MPH, the taximeter will assess a charge of $.20 (twenty cents) every 24 seconds ($30.00 per hour waiting time). That is why the taximeter continues to accumulate charges even when the taxicab is not moving. Once the taximeter senses that the taxicab is moving at a speed greater than 8-12 MPH the fare calculates on the actual distance traveled.

  • lake las vegas easy 50 bucks.
    why not considering renting a car it is cheaper by the day even with gas.
  • Whats the best area to move to in Florida in Dade County. Does all areas have bad hurrica?|160692

    I visited south beach for a vacation and loved it. Now I_m seeking to move there. Does Florida get a lot of hurricanes? What areas are best to move to that_s inexpensive housing?

  • Well during hurricane season there was always a possibility for a hurricane to hit but they are always weak and most of the time aren_t even strong enough to be called hurricanes. That_s when a hurricane hits, but we havn_t had a hurricane in years, so you shouldn_t worry at all. And we always know way in advance if anything were to happen and there_s many hurricane shelters and such just in case. There_s no worries.

    For your other question, it all depends what city in Dade County you are moving in to and what type of place you want to live in, for example, condo, house, etc. South Beach is in Miami Beach which is right next to Miami, just a bridge away. There_s inexpensive places to live in South Beach and the rest of Miami Beach as well as expensive. I would recommend just googling around, or going to craigslist or contacting a realtor, it all really depends on what is inexpensive to you and where and what you want to live in. But honestly just google will be more than enough, but if you see anything expensive in Miami Beach, don_t thik that it_s all around that pricing because it_s not, not even close. Like I said, there_s really inexpensive and expensive places to live. Also, as a sidenote, you could also move to a place near Miami Beach aif that_s where you want to move to, and just take any of the mass transit (some are even free like the Metromover) or cab, train, bus, etc or if you have your own car which living in certain palces in Miami you don_t need one, you can always just drive there. Enjoy your new life in Miami, I know you won_t regret and will love every second of it. Your going to love being a Miamian.

  • Is Palmer, NE a safe place to live if you are an African American?|147029

    I have heard quite a bit of negative things about Palmer, Nebraska in reference to way minorities ranging from Italian to African Americans are treated. However; due personal reasons which can not explain I have been considering moving that small town. Can anyone give me any credible information about how true this is and possible ways to avoid issues that don_t involve not moving there.

  • Well, based on the 2000 census (for the whole ZIP code) of 1,168 total population (the city itself being less than 500) and 1,155 being white that leaves all of 13 whole people to be a variety of something else other than white. Zero being black.

    That doesn_t mean that they are mean or racist toward people of other races but I would go spend a weekend there. Go to the grocery store, walk the streets... see how people treat you.

    You can always live somewhere else since there are small cities all over the US but are more tolerant of _minority_ races than Palmer might be.
