Cost of a 1 bedroom apartment in PH?

stuygal · June 2010

Hey y'all,

I'm thinking seriously of moving from Bed Stuy to Prospect Heights. I have a little dog who could really use some park time, and I'm just getting tired of the neighborhood.

I'm looking to stay $1350 and below for a 1 bedroom apartment. Is that possible? How much are 1 bedrooms running in Prospect Heights these days? I've been looking on craigslist, but haven't seen that much in PH I wouldn't mind moving into Crown Heights a bit too.

Thanks!
SG :-)

If you are willing to live in Crown Heights (E/W from Rogers to Washington is a nice area) then I think it's totally do-able. We pay 1200 for a 2 bedroom in that area - while that's cheaper than most in the area, it's clearly possible.

This one is $1000 per week, not per month.

D'Oh! I thought it seemed too low. :oops:
It was the only NYT "Prospect Heights" listings in that price range that was actually in Prospect Heights.

NYT! ...OP is not in that income bracket....

craigslist, rent.com and maybe even (gasp) The Post.

I have a friend who is moving to the neighborhood and he has just secured a 1 bedroom for less than your $1350 budget, so it is definitely doable.

$1000 a week?!? Eeek LOL

Thanks for the reassurance. I have been looking on craigslist and streeteasy. I'll try rent.com and maybe the Post too :-p

Thanks and if anyone is leaving, knows anyone who's moving out, etc etc please feel free to let a girl know

I was paying 1100 a month for a one bedroom rent stabilized on Underhill before I moved to a 2 bedroom.
