I mean in most of the garages around it's about 1-2 dollars per HALF hour... some charge in 20 minutes incriments.. I mean REALLY considering they're not even really doing anything for you.. (like truly protecting your car from break-ins or whatever) I think it's CRAZY.... and my school charges 5 dollars a DAY to park in the structure... (and they dont' offer semester permits or anything) and the on campus apartments charge 100 dollars a month for parking there as well... and if you get a ticket it's 55 dollars !!!
Parking in Manhattan is $8.49 plus tax per half hour and about $400 per month. Tickets are over $100 now. Gas is $1.79 a gallon. I do not have a car thank goodness.

I just found a one bedroom for $1,800 per month. I have no idea what the building is like. People spend almost half of their monthly income on rent or maintenance.
