Considered to be the center for United States business, fashion, food, tourism and culture, NYC has it all. If you're searching for New York City apartments, don't stress: ApartmentGuide.com can help you navigate even the largest city in the country.

New York is divided into five boroughs: Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx and Staten Island, which are easily accessible by the city's public transportation. Apartments in New York City near mass transit can be expensive, but they allow you to take advantage of NYC's excellent subway and bus system.

Manhattan, which spans from the Hudson River to the East River, is the center of the New York archipelago - in more ways than one. Central Park, the Broadway Theater District, the United Nations, the Metropolitan Museum of Art and Madison Square Garden are in Manhattan, as well as the historic shops, restaurants and apartments of New York City's Greenwich Village. South of Midtown, the Chelsea neighborhood houses a wealth of galleries and nightclubs, while Chinatown is a thriving market and restaurant attraction.

Across the Brooklyn Bridge is Brooklyn, the most populous borough in New York City, which offers more affordable apartments than Manhattan. Here, discover the Brooklyn Museum of Art, the second-largest art museum in the city, and the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, a lush urban oasis. Visit Coney Island for the world-famous hot dog eating contest, wooden roller coasters and a lively boardwalk.

Queens, the largest geographical borough, is the most ethnically diverse 115 miles in the world. In Queens, discover affordable New York City apartments for rent near the New York Hall of Science, Shea Stadium, where the New York Mets play, and LaGuardia and JFK airports.

Yankees fans should search for apartments near Yankee Stadium in the Bronx, the only borough attached to the mainland. The Bronx Zoo, the largest urban zoo in the country, is a must-see, with more than 4,000 animals and 600 species. If you're hungry as a bear after all of that, visit Little Italy for the city's best sausage, salami, cannoli and mozzarella.

The most suburban area of New York City is Staten Island, home to the best views of the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. This suburban area is also home to the Snug Harbor Cultural Center, with 28 historic buildings set on an 83-acre National Historic District.
