If you look at the intersection of Univ City and West Philly (think 45th and Market or so) You can easily get the entire townhouse for $1000-$1100 a month. And I also need a separate work area and grinding area away from my primary residence-it's too noisy and distracting to work and grind there. I don't wanna drive 1.5 hrs to Parx every time I wanna play a live session. I need to get in live poker reps as I prepare to play more live poker in 2020 (I'm an online-only player at the moment). The reason for Philly is it's the best geographic compromise between where I live now (NY) and the local casinos in the area (Parx, SugarHouse, even AC, DE, and MD). Just neatly packaged in a studio apartment.ĭon't mind spending $1400/mo or so considering how frequently I'll be there.ĭon't care about the 'hipness' of the area, this is solely a pragmatic transaction. It's gonna serve triple duty tho: I work from home so I'll be using it as a weekday office space and also as an online poker lair in addition to a place to crash after long live sessions.īasically an office and grinding/studying pad with a bed.

Won't be staying there 100% of the time, but 4-5 days/wk. I'm basically just looking for a studio apartment. Last I checked (6 years ago), a studio at Schmidts was like 1200$ or something ridiculous like that.Īre you looking for a place to live, or a place to crash after a long session? Go a little farther north and it is much cheaper / there are more drug addicts.īoth are gonna be hard to find a studio in, since it is mostly rowhomes. Fishtown is the new hotness, a mix of kids fresh out of college looking to drink a lot, young yuppies with kids/dogs, and old racists.

NoLibs is mostly rich 35-50 year olds, used to be a hot neighborhood but the hype has died down a lot.
