Come at me *******s.

how much is the average apartment cost to live in california or new york? Also, are there any cheap places to live in those states?

really depends where in california. for example, when i lived in the bay area, i had to pay a little more than 1k for an old, beat up 1 bedroom apartment. when i moved to sactown, i got a newer, much nicer 3 bedroom apartment, also had a much bigger kitchen, living room etc for only ~600.

give me brooklyn, and i absolutely hate that borough....... the thought of the hipsters and ghetto trash in that borough get me agitated but it's better than living in LA where everybody and their mother is an aspiring entertainer.

once a new yorker, always a new yorker.

@ avy.

can you hook me up with the full size?

Is it bad neighborhoods that are so cheap? or is it alright

no, they are actually pretty decent. pretty chill/laid back here, not much going on. i live in antelope, ca. just google some apartments there. they've gotten ridiculously cheap over the years.

brooklyn easily. if you wanna avoid the hipsters stay away from williamsburgh/bedford avenue and parts of bushwick. ask shaqattack whether there are many hipsters in his area

new orleans was pretty crazy back in the day. it's insane how close the PJs were to the city/downtown

Not one that I've seen.

As for the OP, can't answer because I've never been to the West Coast. Odd comparison, though. I don't know if it's because of reputation of gangs or something, but Brooklyn is huge, many nice and bad areas.

[ROCSteady]

Brooklyn because East Coast >>> West Coast from my experience.

East Coast = hub of the country

[Blackisbig]

Compton. I know the area, I speak Spanish well enough, and I ****ing hate the east coast.

[JohnnySic]

Can't stand the East Coast, it is so wack to me.

Believe me the feeling is mutual to some of us east-coasters.

West coast is cool to visit; SanFran is an awesome city (Its Boston with a west coast vibe!) and San Diego is a nice place to chill out and vegetate, but live there? No thanks. I'm an east coast guy down to my fingernails, I like the grittiness and realness of east cast cities and people. Cali, especially SoCal, can stay right where it is.

My grandpa grew up in BK, so witout it, I wouldn't be born. BROOKLYN

[Noob Saibot]

never been up to New York so i dunno how i would rate it. I've been to Compton though, I move there and TRY but fail to form my own gang.

better to try than not try at all.

WEST COAST > east coast

no but really, if you grew up in the west then you probably love the west
if you grew up in the east then you probably love the east.

I assure you Johnny that overall L.A. trumps Brooklyn

[ROCSteady]

EAST COAST >>> west coast

New York >> LA

And I'm a huge Lakers fan as well
