I know I want to move to NY at some point in the near future, but am just trying to decide the right time. From a rent perspective, but also from the perspective it not being worth it when there are limited things to do. What are other people thinking?

I was still able to do stuff during the summer (safely) so I kind of hope most people don’t come back til the fall lmao

Also most of my friends got a great deal on a place so I’d suggest trying to lock in a place mid summer - fall before more people come back. Not sure when spikes will happen but most out of town friends are looking to move back May/June.

Keeeps on getting pushed back. First it was early this year then the spring now people are saying end of year. I wonder how the summer will be.

I’ve been here through the whole thing. I’d recommend spring! Maybe May. Reason is 2 fold - 1. Summer and fall were SO FUN and WILL BE so fun because we know we’ll hav outdoor dining 2. It’s nice to be on that renting cadence because there’s typically a lot more available May/June than other months

I (36F) am married to another woman (34F) and we have a baby (5moF). We split all childcare, cleaning, meal prep, errands etc fairly evenly and it works well.

I love sunny weather so much; it significantly elevates my mood, which is a free lunch! The summer in NY was amazing but considering taking a precautionary step for the winter by relocating for a couple/few months to a sunny place like Miami. My job accommodates this.

Have you heard of anyone doing such climate-based back-and-forth? Any tips or advice? Also, how’s Miami for a New Yorker?
TIA!
