OK NYCarea greeks...I need a little info. I know there's at least a few of you here!
I just recently accepted a job to teach in the NYC public school system. I haven't been placed through the
program yet but will mostly likely be in the Bronx or Brooklyn teaching at an elem. school (Districts 8,9,10,11,12, 19, 23 & 27 are high need areas this year). I start training with the program June 16th. I will be relocating from college in PA and would like to get settled asap since I have the teachers exams to take on May 31st too.
Since I don't know where I will be teaching yet I'm kinda treading water on picking a place to live, but I would like to find some options. Here's my question...does anyone have any tips on finding an apartment? Know any good resources, etc? I've already started with the Times' real estate section and craigslist too. I'm looking for safe, clean and afforadable, size doesn't really matter, tho if I was sharing with roommates I would like my own room bc of the hours I'll be keeping. Manhattan would be my first choice, but I know rent gets real expensive real fast. I was born and raised on Long Island so I'm not clueless to getting around the city but as far as finding housing I don't know much at all!
Thank you in advance for any help!
