153 West 139th Street - Cheap for a reason (Good starter apartment)
Pros
Not expensive (might not be cheap anymore) Near multiple train stations Good if you're just starting out in NYC and want to live by yourself
Cons
Noisy neighbors Apartments need to be renovated If the apartment is not rent stabilized, then it's not worth it Consistently stolen packages Regular smell of strong weed
Advice to the owners
Renovate the apartments and have noise policies written into the contract each tenant signs. Also install video intercoms in each apartment.
