It could be fine for a couple months if you are a student or something. Also that small space push you to live more outside and enjoy the city and the people...

Maybe.

I wouldn't be able last 2 minutes in there. My anxiety kicked in immediately due to my claustrophobia

Maybe I could the neighbors apartment for sure. The young lady apartment is a little too tight for me and my clothes lol

no

Agreed!!!!!

and it's still a glorified flop house. These "agents" selling people well painted walk in closet hell holes for outrageous prices make me sick. To each their own...

This is not considered an apartment anywhere!

The only real problem with it is the leak. Real estate is all about location. It's also about supply and demand.

@@sherw7635 If the rich people want to be cheapskates and buy these walk in closets for high price let them. Good for them because they are causing gentrification. Notice her gym membership is over $300. These people know what their doing. They want to push out minorities and poor people by having a trend of the rent being so high for walk in closets. That it would make it almost impossible for most minorities or poor people to have an apartment in NYC

Neither are. City rats and their coping by paying some landlord $600 plus to live in a closet is cringe and dehumanizing

As long as the air is ok, why do you need a window to see out of? It's nice to see outside from time to time, but it's not essential. TBH, if i was in this apartment with that prime real estate, i would not be looking at things outside : )

She can't exactly even stretch or walk around, and she can't even turn around in her shower. She probably can really only own like five outfits to her name because of how tiny the closet space is.

Years ago, you didn't have to work like crazy to have a 1,500 Sq ft place. It's the fact that housing turned into a major business, rather than giving people a reasonable place to just live and function.

She should let someone else, who really needs that closet, rent it.

That chick doesn't seem like the brightest. She talked about wanting to invest and then says she spends nearly 400 bucks a month on a "gym membership."

@@EnkiSvohden ya shes a global gym member for sure. Wonder how good her dodgeball skills are.

Perhaps it’s more of an interest/personality thing but I’ve never really cared too much for gym memberships just to exercise. Going for runs throughout the city for free instead and buying a cheap yoga mat for calisthenics exercises, is a much more cost effective alternative. You do lose the ready access to weights/machines however if your goal is simply exercise, it makes sense to opt for it (especially when you live in an environment with high expenses such as large cities). And if there’s a social desire, you can find local fitness clubs; there are probably free ones in the places like NYC.

687 for an apartment a lot bigger thaen the other one?? I hope she doesnt get ripped of from the landlord ..

You're delusional if you think this is a good deal. I have a 2 bedroom, living room, full kitchen for 750$ a month. I love 40min outside of Chicago. The most id pay for that closet is 150$ a month.

@@asdvvvvf5381 I live outside Chicago too. Where do you live--Stone Park? You don't live in a vibrant area with everything at your fingertips. You either live in the middle of nowhere watching the paint dry or else some gang-infested suburb.

That's more than my mortgage payment was. 1250 square feet, 3 bedroom, 1bath, large yard.

Yea his actually felt cozy. But hers didn't at all other than the living room tv part

Honestly, you shouldn't feel bad about the dogs at all. Her dogs seem happy and they look like they're getting a decent amount of exercise.

Yeah, I would pay the extra $37/mo for the slightly bigger place. Love tiny spaces but her place was making me anxious.

Her dogs seem perfectly fine. Every dog is different, some need a big space to call their own, some are okay in small spaces.

@@alittlepieceofearth I think she's paying for the private bathroom tbh, sharing a toilet is a huge pain

How do you know how she treats her dog? I know of dogs in big houses that never walk their dog. Just let it go in the garden. That's no life. Dogs need to eat, sleep and explore.

Totally agree. What’s the point to even live in NYC like this? Not like they are making 200k+ a year and choose to live like this to put it all in savings or stocks. Just move somewhere else. It sounded like the girl is working from home so you have a freedom to move anywhere in the country.

I have a sneaking suspicion that J.R. is quite handy - and took the time to re-plaster his space properly. Those sharp lines make the difference between a place looking run-down, and feeling clean and modern.

@@jenniferlynn3537 Yes I think so, she mentioned that he had fixed her stove before. He's from the South so likely has general DIY skills at a minimum.

i find these tiny apartments/houses so much more comfy than my open floorplan apartment. i'd take a smaller place in a second to feel more cozy, especially if it's close to stuff

But the girl gets bathroom all by herself, guy needs to share bathroom

You should look up the definition of “plenty”

@@Sisilorulz With one other person, so it's almost like sharing a bathroom with a roommate. It's not a deal breaker, if the other person is respectful and clean.

Coping is the word. And if people allow this to keep happening, they'll be "happy" to be able to just live in pods. But yeah, America!!! The land on where you have the absolute unconditional freedom to choose... Whatever the options your employers give you...

As the elites once said. "You will have nothing & be happy"

@@Queef_latina For real, the middle class in third world countries have bigger houses than this ffs

Yikes living like this in the world's wealthiest country is nothing to be positive about

Agreed. That first one was a bit depressing. No window, and it felt like you were in a very narrow hole in the ground. Also, 1.5 feet of clearance for sleeping is INSANE. Then you've got the water leak right over your head. Not a great place. The second place was actually pretty sick though. Much larger. Big window. Better layout. And only 37$ more a month? That's a steal compared to the first one.

@@OsaculnenolajO He has to share a bathroom tho, that's a deal breaker for me.

thats insane... :{ I wish I could live for that cheap

Yes, but in London you could never get that much space living alone for that price. And London is more comparable to New York City. I used to live in studio flats in London. The first was £695 (inc. bills) iirc - it was really tiny but thankfully didn't have any hazards like this apartment does, like at least I knew it was safe. And it was an attic room so had decent light from slanting attic windows. The second was £800 without bills, probably cost about £1,000 inc. bills. It was slightly bigger but still effectively just a bed and room for a desk. Neither of them were particularly central though so I'm assuming somewhere in central London would have been a lot more expensive. Lived in the second one over COVID and I hated it so much that I sacrificed having my own space and ended up moving in with flatmates. £875 bills included (rent increased to £1,000 a month and I moved out shortly after).

No, this would be considered cruel and unusual punishment in American prisons.

What you're watching in this video would be considered a luxury in or near central London, for that money. In fact ,nowadays in zone 1, you'd pay a good £800 for just a box room. I'm talking the prison cell type where you can barely stretch your arms from wall to wall ,only fitting a single bed and a mini table. Oh,and that's with a shared kitchen and bathroom . Frequent rodent visits are included in the price. Anyone who's been there , knows I'm not joking.

Thankyou from Canada.

If you follow her on TikTok the water bubble above her bed got worse & it was ready to pop. She was waiting on the landlord to fix it. That was a few days ago.

They were interesting and new about 5 years ago, but now all these tiny apartment videos look the same after awhile. I prefer (in this channel's case) the million dollar homes.

@@Jacob-ii4nr yea i think legally to adhere to fire code regulations there has to be a window to use as a 2nd exit in case of fire, basically if there was a fire in the hallway these apartments are a death trap, you would basically have to sit in your apartment and suffocate or be burned to death.

Yeah!
