Here are 5 studio rentals for $2,000 or less if you’re tired of roommates
Living with roommates is a right of passage in New York City, but in the Covid era, eating, working, and studying in a small apartment with other people all the time is very challenging. So if you’ve had enough of your roommates, you might want to consider a studio apartment.
Studios are ideal for one person, or a couple, if the two of you don’t have a lot of stuff and don’t mind not having a separate bedroom to escape to when you need privacy. Smaller studios may be priced close to what you are paying for in a shared apartment, and you can find studios with separate kitchens, alcoves, and even balconies so you can have extra space while you’re working or studying from home.
