On What to Expect When You’re Expecting to Live in New York City
@Tricia Cannon@facebook Harlem and Washington Heights are Manhattan about as much as Staten Island is New York City, which is to say: geographically/administratively - yes, but for real-life purposes - not really. Good chunks of Brooklyn are more expensive than Harlem and Washington Heights because they are closer to the "relevant" areas of Manhattan, plus they have their own qualities that Harlem and Washington Heights lack. In short: you still get what you pay for, and nothing more.

Which is why the location is given a lot more of a priority than the apartment itself.
