Dont worry about anything, but let me ask you about your mining preferences
how much you are expecting to earn? (According to your earning depends your electricty cost.)
You can get 1 Apartment from 1K to 2K (Normally) it depends how flexible you want?
Note: your monthly living cost depends on Your lifestyle

Just keep in mind that if you plan on mining with your hardware, electricity IS fairly expensive... At least enough to influence your budget. I'm not quite sure what the rates are, but it's not cheap.

Cliffside Park and the surrounding areas. You can probably rent something out in Hoboken as well but its expensive.

I think Cliffside Park has a small Brazilian community as well.

Basically here what you want

Yonkers, Hudson + Bergen county of New Jersey, or Long Island.

Thanks a lot, the prices seems better there and also the places.

You can move outside the city and live for $1500. Not many people realize, but NY is mostly farmland. You can get cheap houses out in the boonies upstate. It's like a 3 hour trainride into NYC from Albany.
Thank you so much too, I tried some places upstate but the thing is we spend to much time to ge in the city an my wife is applying to NYCU so we can't stay too far Smiley

No worries! I'm living in Montreal right now but am planning to move soon enough.

As for NY state, I'm not as knowledgeable as I'd like to be, but $1500 for rent AND living expenses for the both of you is not much at all. I hope you like eating ramen!

I think it might be worth looking into sharing an apartment with maybe another couple or something...

I could find some places and it is not costing a lot, if I only stay during the winter. Almost all of the places I've called have only short term rests because during the rents skyrocket so they prefer to rent during this season, of course.

sharing is a bit hard because we have cats and it's hard to find a place that allow cats would be even harder to find people that would live with others people cats.   

I do Like Ramen Cheesy

1500$ a month?

Do you wanna bear near the city?

It doesn't have to be exactly near, it can be in a place where I can easily come and go to the city. My wife is probably going to school there so it can't be a long trip.


Dont move the NY,its going to cost you  A LOT of money,maybe you can live im some far suburb,but new york would be expensive,specialy for brazilians.

When you say that, can you suggest me anywhere to look?


Thanks everybody Smiley

  Sorry for the lack of information.    

   I mean the state, it can even be close to NJ or in NJ close to NY border.  I don't wanna share a house or a room unless it turns to be extremely necessary.   I'm thinking about spending U$1500 monthly with living costs since I'll keep my Brazilian paycheck what is very short compared to USA.      About neighborhood I cant chose since I don't know very much about the place, I've been to NY once for 15 days and I was with a couple of friends but we didn't have the time to look for places to live, this friends live in a good house in Suffern area, but things there are just to expensive to afford. So, the kinda neighborhood I want is the kind where my wife can go to her school alone without risks.

   Hey man, don't be jealous, where are you from? I'm from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and I don't like here, I thing it's a matter of places where we were born. There are many people wishing to come here and I'm wishing to leave Smiley So, I think we might be at the same page here, isn't it?

*EDIT   Oh, I forgot about the electricity bill, as a miner, it matters a lot Smiley How much is the KW/h in NY State?

By NY, are you referring to New York State or New York City? That can dramatically change the answers in the thread.

   As for where to live, it really depends on how much you can afford per month. Sorry if my assumptions are wrong, but I'll go ahead and assume that you can't afford to live in Manhattan itself. I'll also assume that you would much, much prefer to not live with roommates.

If that's the case, I'd suggest looking into Brooklyn/Williamsburg. The area is not the cheapest you can get but depending on where you go exactly, it can actually be pretty nice. If you get an apartment near a subway station, you also have easy access to Manhattan/NYC.

Also, I'd forget the notion of a house, unless you want to have a couple of roommates... Smiley

Let us know more about your financials and maybe neighborhood preferences (have you ever visited NYC before/) and I'm sure other users can give you suggestions as well.

Either way, good luck on the move! Consider me jealous!
