Renting for a grand

Over the weekend the NY Times asked What You Can Rent for $1,000

Apparently the NYC housing folks have determined:

...that $1,000 is the average price of a privately owned nonregulated rental apartment in the five boroughs. That included all sizes of apartments, from studios on up.

This is causing quite a stir, as most people can’t remember $1,000/mo apts.
