Three of the worst cities are in my county. I sure wish that I could have my own place, particularly because I have a situation that may call for one  . But one-bedrooms generally run well over $1K, and I just don't see that as a good use of my money.

$1K is the average going rate for a 1bedroom apartment in NYC, at least outside of Manhattan.

I am totally surprised that NYC wasn't one of the top contenders for Worst cities for renters. As FeeFee mention the average rate for a 1 bedroom outside of Manhattan is $1k and if you want to live in Manhattan try doubling the price. I personally know someone living who lives in Manhattan and is paying $3K a month for a studio!

Yeah, I'm about to move into a studio outside of Manhattan. I'm paying less than $1000 now, which has spoiled me like no other. Manhattan is weird because you pay so much for so little. I know people who pay $2K for a one-bedroom and still have the cockroaches. EWWWW.
As bad as it is here, though, I think Cali is worse.

DC's pretty awful too - I pay $1600/month for a 1-bedroom, although I live in one of the most popular areas in the city.

In October, I became a home owner. We've fixed the plumbing, replaced the toilet, and spent countless hours at Home Depot Hell, but I wouldnt trade it for the world!
