When the experts say it’s safe for all NYC residents to be out and about. It doesn’t make sense to leave because you were concerned and then come back because you are inconvenienced IMHO.

Probably not until restaurants/shops are up and running again. My NYC apartment is too small for all of my roommates to comfortably work remote in

Probably around late April. Keeping in mind that if we are flying back we may need to self quarantine for 2 weeks upon return to the city (not positive on this, but it's my guess)

unfortunately my drive is longer than 15!

I think we all want to believe it’ll be April but do down inside we know it’ll be May or June

I’m thinking mid April too. Is there any rent forgiveness/mortgage forgiveness enacted in nyc yet? I’ve heard other cities already doing this.

I believe qualifications are tied to $ earned and/or being let go from a job but I didn’t look into it too throughly after realizing I wouldn’t benefit haha

I don’t know yet - when the ‘actual’ leaders of this country tell me it’s safe, then I’ll come back.

It’s going to continue to get worse in April. May will likely still be pretty bad. NYC schools are supposed to start back on April 20, it’ll be interesting to see if that actually happens or if school will be remote until next fall.

I’m planning on moving back in June

I’ve told myself August for my planned move

2021 Jan
