Singlespeed & Fixed Gear - come live in philly for the summer!

Yo, so I need to sublet my room for the summer. From may until september.

I figured I'd give anyone on here a heads up. Considering I live with a handful of kids that are down with bikes.

It's 270 a month. and right near Benna's cafe in south philly.



I'm getting desperate.

what are utilities?

what are utilities?

like 20 bucks a month, not much.

damn its mother****ing cheap to live in philly

for real, even the ****ty apartment i had when i first moved to st. paul was more than that.

why is it so cheap in philly?

i'm thinking of moving out to bum**** montana and its even more than that

**** that

I'm getting desperate.
huh. me too. just the way i like it.

its not that cheap on my side of town (west)

oooo0000hhhh
maybe i should come live there for the summer

bennas is an awesome cafe.

Jesus, that is cheap. where are you going in the mean time?

that's because you're not west enough.

that's because you're not west enough.

exactly, we have a whole house for 900 a month split 3 ways and we're not that far west, right between 40th and 41st.

im farther west at heart. i think i want to live in woodland cemetary. that was a nice serene ride today.

So there are 5 roomates? How many bedrooms?

300's not bad...I've never paid more than 2 though... :)

blah i pay too much to live in philadelphia. 500 a month here.

I pay 430, hah! someone worse than me.

450 now. not looking forward to my jump up to 1000ish when I move to nyc.

$250/month.

i'll make sure babychris reads this thread, he needs a place where he is off the lease.

I'll point a friend from FL to you. She's moving up there soon.

Ryan -- how'd you do in the race?

Im paying $650 living in UCity. Most all of you got me beat on rent.

id take you up on the offer, but I need somewhere longer than a few months.

Serious. I'm paying a bit more than that down at Rittenhouse. This city has some good-but-cheap places but also has some "HOLY CRAP are you serious??" places that are priced out of this world.

Paying 205 now living with 5 others in a 6 bedroom which works out pretty well. In 2 months it will be 200 even living with 2 others in a 4 bedroom and it's my friends house he just bought but further southwest.

The key to living cheap in philly is big houses with handfuls of people.


That and the veggie trucks on 44th an walnut.

I share a crib with my lady in Rittenhouse for $750 or $377.50 each. Locust Real Estate is the people to talk to. They own a bunch of incredible (history-wise) houses that aren't kept well, but for a one bedroom at that price I'll live with the leaky window.

I recommend Queen Village. Society Hill quality at South Philly prices. And you're perfectly triangulated to hit any one of a number of prominent cheesesteak joints. Speaking of, maybe I need some Jim's...

haha sounds like you live like one block from me. I pay the same for a 1 bedroom but live alone. The area is nice though so I don't mind.

Howdy neighbor! I'm at 22 and Spruce. Not for long, though. We bought a house in south Philly, moving in June. My girl's bike is locked outside, green Schwinn Breeze. One of mine that gets locked outside is a blue Schwinn Collegiate threed speed. If you see me, say hey!

Jesus, that is cheap. where are you going in the mean time?

Long story, but I got a job going on tour with a traveling carnival.

I'll be in pa, west virginia, virginia, ohio, and some other places.



Also, if anyone is interested, I need to know soon.

Only rule is, no non vegan food in the house, no tobacco/alcohol/drugs in the house either.

Other than that, it's all good.

good lord. i pay way too ****ing much to live in boston (like $650/month in a house in brighton). philly ho!

you should have said that in the first post. to toss that in now sort of throws off a lot of people.

Yeah you're nearby! I'm at 21 and Sansom. I keep both my bikes inside but I ride a black Surly and white Specialized. I'll keep an eye out.

id take you up on the offer, but I need somewhere longer than a few months.

Well, if you (or anyone else) wants to move out into deep west philly to a sweet house on the cheap (245) let me know. Were getting a house in June.

its 3 bdrms, full basement , 1.5 baths, 2nd story deck off the kitchen, perfect bike garage on street level.

54th and sansom!

OT: If anyone has a room/apt. anywhere in NYC to sublet/rent for the summer, let me know.

when did prisons start charging rent?

you're all haters.

Maybe some of us just want to see real resistance to real societal problems, maybe some of us believe in active resistance.

with how ****ed up everything is in modern society, the absolute least you can do is not participate.

and enforcing those personal decisions on others is the answer!
