There's a difference between living in New York, and New York City. I don't recommend anybody concerned about price to live in "the city". I recommend you live in Brooklyn. There are several areas of Brooklyn that are great for us actor type. Places like Carrol Gardens (where I live), Park Slope, and Williamsberg. For a nice one bedroom in these neighborhoods cost 1200-1600 (good for couples). Williamsberg is cheaper, however, the area is a little farther out and not so nice. You can get a two bedroom in Williamsberg for $1100. From all of these neighborhoods the train will take you into the city 30-45 minutes.

If you want to live IN the city (Manhattan) you will spend 1300-2200 for a closet. But hey...Brooklyn is the new Manhattan anyway...it's cool to be from Brooklyn.

Craigslist of course is one of the best places to start your search.
