Moving advice? Safe blocks?

marden

So, many things are pointing to one thing "it's time for me to move." I've been in my apartment for 8 years and well, it's jsut time - unless of course I'm being completley unrealistic.

With that in mind, is it possible to find a one-bedroom in P Heights for $1400?

Also where in Prospect Heights is safe? Where isn't? I'm a wimpy white girl who left the DC area for the relative safety and New York and would like to keep that safe feeling going

Any advice you can bestow upon me would be greatly appreciated.

You can feel pretty safe in all of PH. Obviously, 100% safe doesn't exist in NYC. I think $1400 for a 1br is ballpark for the area, but I haven't been in the market for a while.

well, you've been to my apartment, marden, and I feel pretty safe on washington. have lots of friends that are wimpy white girls who live on classon and franklin and they seem ok.

you should def move if you're not feeling safe where you're at now
but no place is going to be guaranteed 100% crime-free

if nothing else perhaps the move will afford you a sense of control -- which is worth something in and of itself
