TopNYCApts.com recommends one of Manhattan's oldest gems for those searching out low-key neighborhoods with prime location and lively entertainment. Little Italy's tenement homes of yesterday have been converted to lofts with hardwood floors and an office starting as low as $1,800! Try finding a place like that in the West Village or other trendy areas. If you are looking to sell, 2-bedroom, 2-bathrooms are going for $2.575 million.

You'll not only discover financial piece of mind between Bowery and Chinatown, but also a quiet, friendly neighborhood that sometimes doesn't feel like New York at all (and we mean that in a good way!).

This location shines when it comes to downtown nightlife and the cost of living for this area is an obvious draw for any New York City resident hoping to stretch their dollar. And the main drag of Mulberry Street gives its residents a delicious row of old-world eateries. Take one look at Little Italy and we're sure you'll fall in amore!
