Looking For Affordable Housing In Manhattan? The City Recommends Going Somewhere Else

From the New York City Rent Guidelines Board website, housingnyc.com:

How Can I Find Affordable Housing?
Look Outside of "Core" Manhattan - Bear in mind that New York City has many housing sub-markets. If you are looking for moderately priced apartments, very little will be found in Manhattan south of 96th Street on the East Side and below 110th Street on the West Side. Nonetheless, parts of the Bronx, Queens, Brooklyn, upper Manhattan and Staten Island offer more affordable apartments. The median rent for a newly vacant apartment in Core Manhattan is typically double that found in the rest of the city.
