Moving To The Bronx As a Finance Bro (Or Just Normal Guy Wanting Some Tips)

“Yo bro! How's the market looking? Are your stocks at a loss or are you on top of it?” If this is your typical morning conversation when the stock market opens, you may be a NY finance bro. Don’t take it personally, but you are a type. We all are, and that's why we created this moving list to the Bronx just for you!

As the birthplace of rap and the Yankees, with a reputation this cool, you know you’ve made it to the hippest side of New York when you arrive.

If you connect with the vibe, move on in! The locals of the Bronx are known for their friendly manner, so don’t be shy, make new friends.

• Don’t even get me started on the Botanical Gardens. It is my secret relaxation spot in the urban jungle we call New York. Spread over 250 acres with 50 different types of specialty gardens there’s enough space to get lost and never run into that ex you keep seeing in the city. Trust me this spot isn’t a one-time visit type of place, for me it's a weekly ritual.
• Yankee Stadium is the number one spot for big-time sports fans. Some of the wildest baseball records in the world have been made here. Come on it, grab a hot dog and catch the next Yankees game. It’ll have you on your toes.
• City Islands' seafood restaurants have a vibe! Take a date and head out to walk around in the view feeling like you are lightyear's away from NYC. Stroll the streets until you find your desired lobster ready to be grilled.
• The Bronx Zoo is an iconic landmark that tourists from around the world flock to see. The animals here are well treated so don’t worry about that and your entrance fee goes towards the conservation of the zoo and animal safety.
• Little Italy of the Bronx is by my thoughts one of the tastiest Italian areas in the USA that I have yet to find. The homemade fresh pastas are beyond words and don’t even get me started on the pizza dough.

You might notice the many Italian restaurants listed below, with the infamous “Little Italy” area and its delicious foods, I couldn’t venture too far out to taste the rest, as my tastebuds were going wild over the pasta.

• Misto
• Pine
• Antonios
• Dominick’s 
• Mario’s
• Porto Salvo
• The Black Whale

• The cost of living in the Bronx is cheaper compared to other boroughs 
• The transport system of the Bronx is connected to the other parts of NY and especially with its fast trains to NYC, life working in the city but living where it’s affordable is a breeze. As a finance bro, your proximity to NYC is likely critical.
• If you are a foodie like I am, you know that international cuisine is beyond words. No matter what hour of the day, you can find fresh fish, Cuban delicious foods, Korean specialties, NYC Jewish bagels that are top-of-the-line, Mexcam enchiladas better than your grandma's, Chinese authentic food, and any other dish that crosses your mind.
• The Bronx isn’t nicknamed the “friendliest borough” for no reason, people truly are kind and fun here. Get to know the local characters.
• Co-op city which is close to major landmarks offers incredible and affordable cooperative housing options that can make the center feel affordable despite not having a high-paying job.
• The Bronx offers lots of restaurants, coffee shops, and bars that are above-average quality and great for remote working.
• The Bronx has undergone an impressive and significant transformation over the past few decades, with many new developments and a surge of local and foreign investment bringing in wealthier locals, businesses, and tourists.
