For those of you living in NYC, any tips on finding roommates or ways to save $$$ on rent? I don't mind commuting from NJ if I have to.
I don't really have friends living out in NYC to find a roommate (mostly are in SFO). And Manhattan rent looks ridiculous... Grew up in midwest and went to school in midwest. TIA!

I have also considered moving to NYC but I fear the high living costs lol. Im from Georgia, so it’s relatively cheap. I’ve gotten a few opinions on moving to New Jersey instead because it’s cheaper than NYC but I have yet to act on it…

I have a third round interview this Thursday, but after I sent my availability, I booked a flight for work that is causing a problem. The interview ended up scheduled for 3:30-4:15, and I'm supposed to be on a 5pm flight out of LGA. Is there a reliably quiet place at LGA to do the interview (I don't have lounge access)? Would it be a bad idea to say my availability changed and I can't do that time slot anymore? Or should I cancel / rebook my flight to later at night?

My wife got a job that requires us to relocate to San Diego. We have never lived there and know little about the city. We are planning to rent.

Are there other neighborhoods with similar vibes - restaurants, bars, lively, good for walking, clean, safe, young, diverse and accessible that are more affordable? Please share recommendations. How much should we reasonably budget to rent a 2bd/2bath?

Hey DFW, TX folks. We're going through comp and merit raises, I suspect you all are too. This is the first year we're using pay ranges from payscale. I am completely surprised of how low compensation is in TX. For any of you that have visibility to pay ranges what is your experience with pay ranges for your company?
