I imagine Op wouldn’t live in the mall…

I would despise living in that area. If all you want is zero charm, new high rises, chain stores, and tourists then you might as well save yourself some cash and live in Jersey.

Where do you prefer?

It’s good if you like quiet, I just renewed my lease. It doesn’t have the New York charm but it has other pros. I like the easy access to Hudson River for walks/runs, Chelsea piers for golf, Equinox HY for the gym. There are 3 grocery stores, decent restaurants, Bondst, Locanda verde, Milos, Ci Siamo, Chez Zou/Zou Zou etc

Easy airport access, I walk to Moynihan station and catch the LIIR to JFK in 20 min.

There is not “nice vibes” though there , it’s just concrete and mall action

Have you considered NJ? Hoboken and Weehawken are great with easy commute. Calm, clean, amazing waterfront and you can save a bit. I highly recommend.

​My biggest achievement is bridging maritime training with professional trade. Starting with a GP-3 course at Pakistan Marine Academy, I gained technical discipline. I applied this at Habib Rice Products Ltd as an Import-Export & Documentation Officer for 2.5 years. Managing complex LCs, Bills of Lading, and Customs with a zero-error rate is my proudest success. My success stems from the technical grounding of the Academy and my proactive coordination in global logistics.

Best areas are (in order) Chelsea, Upper West, Hell’s Kitchen. Note that this is non exhaustive.

I agree, it’s all so subjective. The way I should have characterized it is the three I mentioned are my favorites because it’s where I’ve grown up
