Living in New York City is no easy feat, especially as rent prices show no sign of dropping. For the last three consecutive quarters median rent in New York City has been climbing, with a six percent increase since the previous quarter. More impressive though is the 22 percent increase in median rent price in the Big Apple year over year. One and two bedroom rental units have largely contributed to this trend with 12 percent and 26 percent year over year growth, respectively.
