Buying a NYC home now takes nearly 15 years to pay off — but these 5 neighborhoods buck the trend

New Yorkers wondering whether to keep renting or finally take the plunge into homeownership may want to look toward Queens — where buying can pay off in less than three years. In Rego Park, homeowners could come out ahead financially over renting after just 2.8 years, compared with a staggering 14.5 years citywide, according to a new StreetEasy report .

Shilo Sanders' Food Blogging Adventures Go Wrong Again After NYC Rat Encounter

Shilo Sanders just wanted something to eat. Again. The former Colorado football player, whose recent visit to a Florida chicken restaurant ended in a confrontation with an angry stranger, has now fled a New York City restaurant after spotting a rat. So far, Sanders' attempts to explore local food spots have produced more unexpected encounters than actual restaurant reviews. COMPLEX SHOP: Shop the brands you love, anytime and anywhere. Uncover what's next. Buy. Collect. Obsess. Sanders shared his latest dining disaster in a Nov. 9 Instagram Reel , explaining that his time in New York had been enjoyable until the city's infamous rodent population started making itself known. "I love New York. I've had a great time out here, but every place I go into, it's rats, bro," he said. "I can't do this. I promise you, I've seen three rats out here since I've been here. I can't live like that, bro." View this post on Instagram The situation apparently reached its breaking point when Sanders spotted one inside a restaurant and immediately headed outside.

It’s about selecting the right breed that thrives in smaller spaces, tolerates noise from neighbors, and can handle busy streets and crowded elevators. Sure, you see dogs everywhere in the city, from tiny Chihuahuas tucked into designer bags to Great Danes wandering through Central Park. Still, not every breed adjusts easily to the unique demands of urban apartment life.

Woodland Park Board Kills 12-Unit Lackawanna Project Over Density, Traffic Fears

29-33 Lackawanna Ave. — Approximate Site of Proposed Apartment Project.

The board rejected the application over zoning-exception and neighborhood-density concerns, ending a review of a project that had already been reworked once to address earlier objections.
