I am a single african-american women, raised in the south (New Orleans and Georgia) and I am so tired of the south. I always been free spirited in my thought process and recently been to NY in August(1st time) and I loved it. I just don’t have family or friends that lives up there and the people that I know down in Atlanta are so closed minded and think the North is too fast pace. I am single 23 and no kids with goals to establish my business (ecommerce) any suggestions! Where should I live? I work for a company that will let me relocate, so I do have a full time position, but I am salary, so something real affordable and safe….I also plan enrolling in school back again to enhance my skills in production and editing, any community colleges? Help! Thanks!

Check with your company. Find out their location in NYC.
If you’re a first time NY-er, I would recommend these neighborhoods: BROOKLYN: Greenpoint, Red Hook, Park Slope, + other adjacent neighborhoods in that area.
Here is an in-depth article abouot Brooklyn and it’s neighborhoods:
QUEENS: Astoria or Jackson Heights vicinity.
article:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queens
the BRONX: Riverdale

All these articles are pretty accurate.
Also, check out for apartment listings. I would suggest jumping on this ASAP, as it can be very difficult to find an apartment anywhere in NYC.
PS. If anybody tells you to stay away from the Bronx, they obviously have never been there and have no idea what they’re talking about.
Best of luck!!
