New York, NY Area Reviews
Virginia • 4+ years in New York
October 16, 2025Good vibes - but the stores could be better. Too many junk stores and nail salons. Not enough food stores - and the ones here are rather pricey. Not pet friendly - yet another service presented by the greedy landlords--rents are too high.
