Join us as we discover our next Manhattan neighborhood, Harlem!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

What was originally a Dutch farming village has today transformed into a multi-ethnic neighborhood that has a long history of being a center for cultural and artistic renewal. The Harlem Renaissance<\/strong> was a social and artistic movement in the 1920s that was responsible for developing Harlem into what it is today. It introduced the world to people like W.E.B. Dubois<\/strong>, Duke Ellington<\/strong>, and Ella Fitzgerald<\/strong>, to name a few. Harlem is in a perpetual renaissance; it’s a neighborhood in a constant state of evolution through its art, music, and culture. Today, Harlem<\/strong> continues to be a hotspot for new and emerging artists.<\/p>\n

As any resident will tell you, Harlem is the place to get a cultural<\/strong> experience unlike any other. From food that will transport you to various corners of the globe, to an art scene that will make you believe you\u2019re discovering the next hot artist, Harlem is a neighborhood that will never disappoint. With our help, learn to live like a local<\/a> in Harlem, and then become one!<\/p>\n

Apartment shares are an affordable way to live in whatever neighborhood you want<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

We all wish we could live in a beautiful luxury apartment, perfectly located near our university or work, but sometimes our finances can hamper these dreams of opulence. Knowing what areas of New York<\/strong> you can afford is an important step in finding an apartment that fits your needs. Most importantly, apartment shares<\/strong> (i.e. renting a single room in an apartment) can help curtail some of the costs associated with renting an apartment. How exactly will living in Harlem affect your wallet? Check out our Broker\u2019s Guide<\/a> to affordable living in NYC, and then the infographic above will break down average rent prices for you.<\/p>\n
