Perhaps the most well-known place in the country, Midtown Manhattan is the heart of New York City. The dazzling lights of Times Square, the classic view from the Empire State Building, the bustling yet historic vibe of Grand Central Station, and the flags of the United Nations are just a few of the iconic sites in Midtown Manhattan. Those lucky enough to live in this part of New York City will quickly find out why no other place in the world compares. You can walk along the High Line over Hudson Yards, eat your way through Korea Town on 6th Avenue, or ice skate at Rockefeller Center. The city that never sleeps has new experiences for even the most seasoned New Yorker. Renters who call Midtown Manhattan their home have their pick of a plethora of apartments, condos, and townhomes ranging from historic to modern developments.
Away from the glitz and glamour, what’s it like to live in Midtown? For many residents, it’s truly a dream. Midtown Manhattan is a pedestrian’s paradise, with work, entertainment, and groceries just blocks away from every apartment. While the rental rates in this neighborhood are admittedly sky high (167% higher than the New York state average) other necessities are priced comparably to surrounding areas.
