Hi, looks this is a new site but I would like to find out if any of your travellers can recommend a place in New York for a 6-month stay. I have a budget of $1600/month. I prefer a place that is safe and relatively quiet, with easy access to subway and buses.

hi Tikki, rent in New York has gone through the roof since the pandemic, it shows no signs of coming back down. A $1600/month budget won't get you anything in Manhattan if you don't want to live with roommates. In some of the boroughs, you might get a studio apartment in a neighborhood where you don't want to live.
So my suggestion is to find a roommate (maybe 2) in the neighborhood where you prefer to live, nice thing about that is that your roommate will actually help you explore the city.
I hope that helps.
