Pros And Cons Of Living On The Upper East Side

 Published On Nov 22, 2023

Let's delve into the advantages and drawbacks of calling New York City's Upper East Side home. I kick off the video by promising to share insights into five pros and five cons, offering a close look at the local real estate scene. I introduce the Upper East Side as a spacious neighborhood, comparable in size to the Upper West Side, stretching from 59th Street to 96th Street besides a few exceptions.

To highlight the pros: the area's diverse culinary scene and high-end shopping, especially along the Avenues; the proximity to parks like Central Park and Carl Schurz Park; and the neighborhood's distinctive residential vibe with charming townhouses and single-family residences. I also point out the comparatively lower cost of living, making it an attractive option compared to downtown areas. However, it's not all sunshine; I discuss the limited nightlife options, potential transportation challenges, and the nuances of co-op apartments on the Upper East Side, which often come with stringent financial requirements.

As we wrap up, I provide a sneak peek into the Upper East Side's real estate market, showcasing examples of one-bedroom, two-bedroom, and five-bedroom apartments as well as a townhouse for sale at $11,500,000. These examples offer you a firsthand look at the variety of housing options available. As a real estate professional with Living New York at Compass, I encourage viewers to reach out if considering a move and hint at additional insights into the area's cost of living.
