Gen Z is hacking NYC rental culture — and living in upscale, amenity-rich shares for $1,600 a month

Vibrant rooftop scenes, cozy backyard spaces, state-of-the-art kitchens and fitness centers, monthly networking events and parties, plus free weekly cleaning to boot — and the rent is only $1,600 on average per month?

All of this can be yours in NYC in 2024. You just have to be willing to share it with up to 30 of your closest housemates — yes, including bathrooms — and pass a vibe check.

But that’s a small price to pay, say numerous residents of Cohabs, a fast-growing Belgian co-living company that currently maintains 14 Big Apple properties, housing 400 members and growing.

Christa Guidry, 23, is one of them. Her job as a pilot allows her to live near any major US airport, and after seeing Cohabs NYC communities featured on her social media, the Arkansan knew she’d found her next home.

“I saw a video that was like, ‘Hey, have you ever wanted to move to New York City with 22 strangers?’ I thought that sounds kind of interesting,” Guidry told The Post. “I wanted a fresh start. I wanted to be around other young, motivated people.”

Two days after contacting the company, she signed a lease and moved in last March.
