I am sitting in Starbuck's st the corner of West Broadway and Chambers,
sipping my coffee and figuring out how we could afford to live here.
It is ridiculous to set a detective story in New York City. New York City is itself a detective story...

Beware! NYC is a harsh mistress. She'll seduce you in and then require huge compensation.
To live in NYC, you really have to be of a certain mindset. You give up many things to live here.
If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

"...and figuring out how we could afford to live here."
Think outer boroughs.

If you're going to live in Manhattan, or anywhere near a subway station, you won't need or want a car, so you can drop a car payment and insurance from your current budget, as well as gas and maintenance costs. Any proceeds you may net from the sale of any current vehicle(s) could be used to offset moving costs.
That said, it ain't cheap. I grew up in Astoria, which is a wonderful, diverse neighborhood, and very accessible to Manhattan. Any neighborhood that produced Ethel Merman and Christopher Walken can't be bad, right?

In this economy, rents have been coming down. Bargains are to be had if one looks hard enough.
