"Just wasn't for me, left New Rochelle"
I had moved to New Rochelle for a job, my daughter and I. Rent was very high, cramped space, not just at home but at the office. At the laundromat, at the nail salon; hair salon and grocery store. Even the roads are narrow. There were mice at the apartment, mice at work, and God knows where else. A lot of Spanish speaking people, cab drivers barely spoke English. Just overall an ugly, old, overpriced town that was not worth it. I left the job and could not wait to get OUT of New Rochelle.
Cons
- rents are high, apartments are small
- mice
- old buildings and stores
- some unsafe streets
