Why NYC?

It’s hard. It’s dirty. It’s expensive. It’s impossible to live here without making enormous compromises. But those of us that do, know it’s totally worth all of the hardships.

Streeteasy became synonymous with NYC real estate by acknowledging the downsides while reminding people why they came here in the first place.

Several years of campaigns tricked so many people to live in NYC that the population grew to nearly eight and a half million. If New York City is currently crowded, noisy, and stinky, I apologize—totally my fault.
