I moved to the East Village after my senior year of college about six years ago. I chose the East Village because it was a hub for music, media and culture. I was working in the music industry at the time and I fit in well with the scene. Many of my likeminded friends lived there as well.  

My apartment, which was located on Second Street and Avenue B, was a 700-square-foot, two-bedroom, one-bathroom that had been converted into a three-bedroom apartment.
