DIRECTLY, WITHOUT USING SUBCONTRACTORS

If you ever read moving company reviews, you could notice that #1 reason why people experience issues when moving long distance is that their moving company outsources the delivery to other transportation companies and therefore loses control over the stuff.

In a situation like that the moving company can’t know where the stuff is and when exactly it will be delivered.

That is why at Roadway Moving we have our own trailers and we do not outsource delivery to others.

We can move you directly from Los Angeles to any part of NYC and you can rest assured that your stuff will be packed safely, GPS tracked during the whole move and delivered on time.

Cost of living

New York City is known for its high cost of living, often ranking as one of the most expensive cities in the world. Rent in Manhattan can easily exceed $3,000 per month, and even in outer boroughs like Brooklyn and Queens, apartments typically range from $2,000 to $3,000. Groceries, dining, and transportation costs are also higher than the national average. However, NYC offers unparalleled opportunities and experiences, making the higher cost worth it for many residents. While expensive, the variety of neighborhoods and housing options means you can find a spot that fits your lifestyle and budget, whether you want the excitement of Manhattan or the community feel of Astoria or Park Slope.

Housing

Housing in New York City is diverse, from luxurious high-rises in Manhattan to brownstones in Brooklyn and trendy lofts in Queens. While the cost of living is high, NYC offers a wide range of options to suit different lifestyles. Neighborhoods like the Upper West Side or Greenwich Village provide classic urban living with easy access to cultural landmarks, while Williamsburg and Long Island City offer more modern and creative living spaces. If you’re looking for more affordable options, areas like Inwood or parts of the Bronx offer lower rent while still being well-connected to the city. No matter where you live, you’ll find a unique neighborhood vibe that matches your personality.

Job opportunities

New York City is a global center for business, finance, media, and technology, offering a wealth of job opportunities across various industries. Wall Street remains the financial capital of the world, and media companies like NBC, The New York Times, and BuzzFeed are headquartered here. The city also has a thriving tech scene, with many startups and major companies setting up offices in Silicon Alley. The healthcare and education sectors are strong, with top hospitals and universities providing employment. Whether you’re in finance, media, tech, or healthcare, NYC is a prime destination for career growth and networking.

Education

New York City is home to some of the best schools and universities in the world. Columbia University, New York University (NYU), and The City University of New York (CUNY) provide top-notch higher education, while private schools like Horace Mann and public schools in districts like Stuyvesant High School are renowned for their academic excellence. The city also offers a wide range of specialized schools and programs, from arts-focused institutions like Juilliard to STEM schools such as the Bronx High School of Science. With its diverse educational landscape, NYC provides families and students with world-class learning opportunities.

Transportation

New York City’s public transportation system is one of the most extensive in the world, with the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) operating subways, buses, and commuter trains that make it easy to get around the city and beyond. While NYC’s traffic can be intense, most residents rely on the subway system, which operates 24/7 and connects all five boroughs. Walking and biking are also popular ways to get around, particularly in areas like Manhattan and Brooklyn. Taxis and ride-sharing services are widely available, and New York’s pedestrian-friendly streets make it easier to navigate without a car than in most cities.

Entertainment

New York City is a global cultural capital, offering endless entertainment options. Broadway theaters, world-class museums like the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), and live music venues make NYC a mecca for arts and culture. The city’s restaurant scene is equally diverse, with everything from Michelin-starred dining to food trucks serving every cuisine imaginable. Whether you’re exploring the nightlife in the Meatpacking District, attending a concert at Madison Square Garden, or enjoying a picnic in Central Park, NYC offers an unparalleled range of activities and entertainment.

Parks and Recreation

Despite its urban density, New York City offers plenty of green spaces and outdoor activities. Central Park, one of the most famous parks in the world, offers vast spaces for running, cycling, picnicking, and even boating. Other notable parks include Prospect Park in Brooklyn and the High Line, a former elevated railway track transformed into a unique urban park. The city’s waterfronts provide opportunities for kayaking, sailing, and taking in stunning views of the skyline. With over 1,700 parks, playgrounds, and recreational facilities, New York City offers a surprising amount of outdoor experiences, ensuring that residents can always find a space to relax or explore nature.
