The thing about living in Manhattan, which is only one of the 5 boroughs that comprise New York City, is that “white folks” are willing to pay thousands of dollars a month to live in apartments no bigger than a closet.

I’m not trying to be bigoted here, it’s just a New York thing that us native New Yorkers understand.

Truth be told, a lot of the white folks have been living in New York less than 10 years, so as far as I’m concerned these people are not native New Yorkers. They call themselves New Yorkers, but hey whatever.

Also, they’re scared to death of the outer boroughs like the Bronx and Queens as if they were untamed bush country. Less so Brooklyn which is rapidly bemoaning the new Manhattan East. They will never admit it, but that’s the real deal.


Daily Mail reports that if you think your apartment is a bit poky, take a look at this one. Felice Cohen has squeezed her life into a 90 square ft flat even though it has no kitchen and a bed whose ceiling is 23 inches from her face.

The bathroom is so small that she has to sit sideways to go to the toilet and on her first night there she suffered a panic attack because it is so cramped.

Storage is at such a premium she has to keep her bananas in the toaster oven. When it comes to the rent, however, it is all worth it as Ms Cohen, in her 40, pays just $700 a month to live in New York's Upper West Side - whilst neighbours are charged $3,000. Ms Cohen, who happens to be a professional organiser, said the last three years in the apartment have been a joy and that friends even prefer to come and visit her.
