Listen To My Latest Podcast: Our Most Embarrassing NYC Moments

Comparing Our NYC Apartments

Uncategorized Sep 25, 2025

In this episode of the Coming to New York City Podcast, Nils and I take a deep dive into our journey of living in New York City through four very different apartments over the past 11 years.

From a creaky brownstone walk-up in Park Slope to a doorman building on the Upper East Side, a spacious four-bedroom on Roosevelt Island, and now our home in a modern Greenpoint high-rise, we share the pros and cons of each space. You’ll hear our stories of raising kids in small apartments, dealing with mice, navigating one-bathroom living, and discovering the value of neighborhood community.

We also compare practical details that can make or break an NYC apartment and offer advice for anyone considering a move to New York. Whether you’re curious about real estate, planning a move, or just love hearing real stories of city living, this episode shares honest insights into what it’s really like to live in NYC.
