These Apartments are SO ROUGH… Everyone Moved Out 

My last rental apartment was a one bedroom in a third floor walk up in Brooklyn 30 years ago (two train stops to Coney Island), and I only paid $500/month before I moved. That was up from the previous $410. You must have been at least close to Manhattan.

@@robinlillian9471 I was actually near Times Square in a giant high rise that was rent stabilize for ten years. After that it went to market prices. My place went from 1900 to 2600 in one second. That’s when I moved out. It was fun while it lasted. The Ritz Plaza on 48th street.

@@MARKWHITE007 :) I figured as much. These places are fun for young people who like the night life.

@@robinlillian9471 haha, I was like the total opposite, I still can’t figured out why I moved to Times Square and thought it was going to be quiet.

Mines was 15 years ago in the Bronx around the Fordham Road area. I know it was under 2 grand. Probably 4 grand now. Smdh.

I've been binge watching these as well. Cash does a great job with these videos.

Get well soon! 🙏🏻

I ask God to heal you and make you whole again, as He did me, in Jesus' Name. Amen 🙏❤️🗡️

Janice I wish you health

Same sweetie us army veteran cant get care. I’ve learned so much. Watch a 90 minute 2021 documentary about the unregulated import market especially the fragrance industry. They’re slowly poisoning us Its cslled STINK. You’ll maybe learn something to help im slowly replacing personal care products making my own with stuff you can eat. Everything you put on your skin goes through your bloodstream. Cancer diabetes chronic illness is being caused the FDA does NOT insure anything you buy is safe for you to use its a criminal corrupt corporate scam. And then when it doesn’t kill you right away they have plenty of prescriptions that they can put you on to help your symptoms but they haven’t cared cancer in how many years but they raise billions of dollars every year and it’s always about is above a pill nobody looks at cause-and-effect any more dish soap and downy and cleaning products gave me dermatitis for 50 years of painful debilitating embarrassing condition. 😢 My 48 they had me on nine different medication’s that did nothing but give me side effects didn’t help any of the things I was being “treated” for i fored them and theres free lectures on RU-vid from doctors phd’s etc personal testimonies of people like myself that too back our lives from the people wiping us out slowly. 🤷‍♀️☠️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻blessings from northern Arizona

"Usually not a group activity." 🤣🤣🤣 Emphasis on the word "usually." 😂🤣😂

That's because you don't have adult fun!

Imma p on you

Why worry about kitchens in these places. Once the rent is paid how does one even afford food?

How is that sad?

100% agree.

Even tho you dont like the spaces this is such a wholesome comment

@@653j521 Sad for the people who have to live there. However, the truth is they could get much cheaper if they were willing to have a longer commute to work.

@@653j521 HOW is that sad???? From your statement you must enjoy jail size rooms cramp lifestyle at NO VALUE. I love the one scene where he has to look straight UP in order to see "BLUE SKY" City life sucks, but some LIKE suck???

As I've voluminously said - New York City, great place to visit . . . couldn't afford to live there ! 💀🇺🇸👎

Nothing is forcing these people to live a stone's throw from all the action. They could commute by subway from an outer borough.

@@robinlillian9471 how much is an appartement far from downtown? more around 500/1000? or more expensive?

Agree. Totally weird apartment vibes.

Definitely!

That has to be the most ridiculous thing i've ever seen. You can't stand in front of the sink?!

It's barely even accessable 👀 in the UK, you can't have a stove next to the sink, there is a minimum distance they have to be to be up to code

Bad design! I’d have the stove removed and just eat out!

It's all back again. All the traffic, noise, shows, etc. have been back for a while now.

@@robinlillian9471 u r clearly not a New Yorker

This moron pays for vibes lmao

The vibes have been declining since 2009. Now, it's just a soulless place where it once had a heartbeat. Being destroyed by the very ones who were entrusted with stewardship.

Imagine having a job that makes you enough to pay just shy of 5k in monthly rent yet you live in this piece of s***. As ny'ers say... Get outta heeea.

I fail to see the corner-cutting.

The buildings are old and better built than anything younger. It's just retrofitting. They add cheap walls to make more "rooms", paint, new appliances, etc.

​@@snookies1224The fire place was cut in half by a wall!😡

No one is using any of it. Most of the tenants probably don't even know how to cook and eat out every meal.

@@robinlillian9471 how do they afford their rent with how often they eat out if that's true?

Yea, I see arm burns in their future.

Late, but I just saw this video and I definitely got mad about that split up fireplace. Like, wow, they really couldn't be bothered to spend the money to remove it properly, but they HAD to split up that room. Geez.

It's not a rerun.

I assume most rents match the raising wages in the area. They wouldn't be this high if no one could afford em. Still, highway robbery.

My grandson just bought a 3 bedroom 2 bath in Arkansas and his total payment is 600 bucks a month. Just depends on where you want to live

@@metcas Most people can't afford them, but most people don't expect to live in midtown Manhattan. The rents in the outer boroughs are much cheaper, but you have to commute. The renters in Midtown are elites who are either really young/like the nightlife/only go home to sleep and/or have real estate somewhere else and want a place to crash on weeknights.

Even here rent for a one bedroom is over 1000. Not surprised it's 3000 in ny.

Never heard of a laundromat? So don't live in the middle of all the action. Find somewhere nice and quiet and boring.

@@robinlillian9471 why would anyone WANT to go to a laundromat when he/she can do it right in his/her own home? saves all the trouble. especially if you have a lot.

@@kunzillayeah. I work and do the laundry when I’m on my days off. I also happen to clean my house at the same time. That would be a little hard to do at the laundromat.😉😅

Yeah, it's a wonder that Cash didn't wind up in jail only to be released an hour later to ransack other people's stuff. Because that's how it is in 2022 NYC. We love Cash but he's living dangerously. This must be the year for that.

Personally, I'd be charmed to come home and find Cash rummaging through my stuff. But that's just me?

@@denverdubois5835 That's because you know him and you're a fan. But if you don't and you're packing heat, that could be curtains for Violet's daddy. Just throwing that out there.

@@denverdubois5835 over course you would

​@@jacksonmorganfroghin4815 k it

Thanks!!!

These are probably the affordable apartments lol But seriously the world is fucked

@@Invhytas Seriously? They're right in midtown or downtown Manhattan. A lot of the renters can probably look out their windows and see the Thanksgiving Day parade go past. One had a view of the World Trade Center only a block or two away. It's the location that makes them expensive.

It's funny and ironic how you're the one doing time and you're also the one getting robbed. But it's voluntary so I guess that makes it all right.

Where would you put central air in a building over a century old? No one has central air. The cold air from a window air conditioner is just as cold. They aren't prison cells. They are places to crash for the night, and they're bigger than Tokyo's capsules, which are the size of a coffin.

@@robinlillian9471 Way back in 67, you could stay in the Greenwich Hotel on Bleecker Street for $1.60 a night. You had to be a single male. What you got was a cot and a chair with a naked light bulb hanging down. No AC at all. Just a little bigger than those Japanese capsule rooms. You had to go down two floors to the bathroom. I know cause I stayed in one once. I needed a place to crash for the night. Those were the good old days!!

Same here. Those matching ranch-style homes steal a little bit of my heart and soul every time I see one.

don’t forget the trash on the streets and a bong shop on every corner of brooklyn… an experience and culture like no other

1. Most New Yorkers don't live next to the Empire State Building or World Trade Center. 2. The culture is from the museums, universities, opera, and Broadway plays. 3. The city never sleeps, and a lot of these tenants spend most of the night out somewhere. They only come back to crash. 4. There are plenty of cheaper apartments much further from all the action. 5. Nothing is making these people live there. They just want to, because of all the opportunities you can't get anywhere else.

@@bebeerin Why would you need a bong shop when weed is legal now?

@@robinlillian9471 why wouldn’t you?

Those poor kids!😢

We paid $6,000! ...Every 6 months.😏

Making a virtue of a necessity was always popular. Probably most have storage somewhere else, like their parents' house.

Did you see the one with a tiny shower? That isn’t a bathroom, that’s a true wet room! I wouldn’t want to take a shower in it every day!

You don't. You go out to eat and use paper plates on the rare occasions you reheat your left overs.

People perish for lack of knowledge!😢

Of course they're tenement buildings, but they're tenement buildings in what is now a prime location. This is the price of living across the street from the World Trade Center or Empire State Building. People could just move further away and commute by subway.

No one is forcing them to live in Midtown.

You won't get it in apartment buildings that went up in the former slums of over a century ago. Move somewhere that isn't across the street from the World Trade Center or Empire State Building. Real estate is all based on location.

They're young adults. No children. No old people.

It's only to wash your hands occasionally. Probably everyone used outhouses when these buildings originally went up. Little space for indoor plumbing.

@@robinlillian9471 I'm talking about in the newly remodeled kitchens!

@figmo397. My son & his gf just moved from East Harlem to Kips Bay (way more “residential” area ...plus he can afford it now😆🤩) The old apt was in an OK area- not the best, but not the worst by any means. Thing is : that EH apt was A-D-O-R-A-B-L-E! Super modern, washer/dryer IN unit, & RELATIVELY affordable👍 (No doorman or elevator like Kips Bay apt thou🤣😂😭)

Why not just go to a laundromat? You could even pay the staff there to do your laundry for you for a couple of dollars.

I don't even go to visit. The crime is insane!

@@jacksonmorganfroghin4815 I know it’s crazy sigh 😔

Adjust the float and you don't have to jiggle the handle

NYC has extemsive centralozed steam utilities like gas or power. So its often cheaper.

@@Slevin-Kelevra I rather pay less rent for a nicer place that's not in New York, and maybe higher utilities. I can't imagine the utilities are that much lower to justify the rent for these crappy units. Even with the renovations they still cut corners and collect premium rent. Now I see why people in New York are mean. The depressing Apartments they have to rent

@@brandyboo And yet, you watch.

If it can survive the Charles test, it can withstand any tenant.

Bang your own appliances and you'll immediately see they have rubber and don't make a metal on metal sound. He is adding that, probably to get a reaction out of you and make you respond. He makes money if he gets a big response.

The old fashioned way. Perhaps no one taught him from our generation. lol Good catch

@@beths4934 I can tell you were never in the Navy. You'd get your ass tossed off the fantail if you turned toward the ladder to go down! (Retired LCDR here!)

@@FromSagansStardust In the Navy....I can say I have not been....In the Navy.

@@beths4934 ⚓👷‍♂👩‍🚒👮😉😊

Those stairs should not be so steep!😡
