Best bet for that dollar amount is to look for a bigger place with a roommate. If that is out of the question. You might be able to find a small studio for that price in an old walkup building somewhere. I live in a doorman luxury building I pay 1700 for a small studio. But there is a gym, free bike storage, private lounge with a 200 inch projector. Some of the other buildings have pools and such. You can always live either in Jersey City or Brooklyn, which is about 10 minutes outside of Manhattan for the $1500. They are both very up and coming.
