Reply To: Budget trip to New York

[yonasl]

I was in NY a couple of years ago and it did feel a little grim compared to previous trips (you could still feel the effects of covid and the increase in homelessness that seems to be endemic across the US). Maybe things got a little better since then.

I did not feel things are unsafe but maybe that’s the Londoner attitude to seeing all sort of people mixing and going on with their lives.

Stuff felt very expensive everywhere but hopefully if you find good accommodation you can use public transport without much worry (I never felt unsafe or saw weird stuff).
