IBM Watson Research Center @ Yorktown Heights, NY

If you are moving from here, pennies! Peanuts! Nothing! Seriously tho — I have a friend who grew up there and he says maybe $800 for single room? $1,000 for studio? You can rent whole house with yard for about $2k.

I work there and I live in the city (1hour door to door to the office). Near 125th-Harlem train station, you can get a single bedroom for $2000-$3000 depending on the condition.
