Find the best coliving apartments in NYC
If you are looking for furnished rooms for rent in a communal living setting, then renting from a Coliving might be ideal for you. NYC Colivings offer shared apartments for rent in Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens in some of the most vibrant neighborhoods such as Harlem, the Lower East Side, Bedstuy, Bushwick, Williamsburg, Long Island City and more. With flexible leases, all-inclusive rent costs and furnished rooms, co-livings provide everything you need to settle in right away in your new apartment, whether you’re planning to stay for just a few months, or call it home.
What is a coliving?
Coliving is a new trend amongst millennials for renting shared apartments. Whether you’re moving to NYC for work or just looking for a new apartment, coliving is a good way to save money and live with like-minded people. Co-living places people from different backgrounds together and encourage them to interact, collaborate and form new friendships. When compared to dorms, coliving is much more attractive, since it’s relatively inexpensive, all-inclusive and allows you to rent a furnished room with an individual lease.
Coliving has really gained traction over the past few years and there are many different Co-living operators available in New York and nationwide. Each have a different style of design, different layouts, and are located in different locations. Their rent price also varies and corresponds to their offer. Some key features that they all share are: furnished common spaces, amenities shared by all members of the co-living community such as a backyard, co-working space, a rooftop and sometimes even a gym. Some also throw community events like yoga classes, joint outings, or cookouts. You will also have periodic cleanings included in your rent, which helps reduce the chores list as well as potential tension among roommates. In most colivins, you’ll have your own private bedroom and share a bathroom with other residents. While most rooms are private, some rooms will be shared between 2 or 3 people (the price will be lower for shared rooms). The common spaces will also be shared by your Coliving roommates, and maybe even your Coliving neighbors. This is great if you want to enjoy your own space, but are still keen to hang out with other like-minded people every now and then.
Why live in a coliving?
If you’re more of a social person and want to live in a place that encourages bonding amongst its residents (or just a way to save money on rent), you’ll love coliving! This type of shared apartment provides a great environment for newcomers to NYC, those just starting their careers, or even digital nomads who want to make new friends and to meet like-minded individuals from all walks of life. Co-livings also take out the work of finding roommates or having to worry about them paying the rent. Leases are individual and you can rent a Coliving room for a few months or a year. You also don’t have to worry about moving your furniture or buying new furniture since the apartment and rooms come furnished (some colivings might offer a furnished room as an extra option). So if you want an easy and flexible move, this is a great option. Some co-livings even allow you to switch between their locations, so you can get a taste for different neighborhoods. As with all things shared, co-living spaces are about more than just sharing an apartment; they’re also about community. As with most big cities, New York City is packed full of people with busy schedules—and it can be hard to meet people or make new friends. Living in a Coliving can help with that.
