February in New York is full of things to do, shows to see and places to visit. It is a great time to go to take in a parade, shoot off fireworks, enjoy the theater, dance in the streets, cheer on your favorite football team and celebrate Valentine’s Day with a romantic evening in the City.

February 2: It’s a big month for football fans! February is the month of the Super Bowl, one of the most anticipated and celebrated sports events in the U.S. This year is even more special as it’s the NFL’s 100th season, and the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers have the privilege of fighting for the trophy and the title in a heavyweight matchup that does not expect to disappoint. The 54th Super Bowl and the 50th modern-era National Football League championship game will decide the champion for the NFL’s 2019 and 100th season. This is the first Super Bowl appearance for the Chiefs in 50 years. Super Bowl LIV will be played at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida.

There are always talks on which one was the most original. If you’ve never experienced a Super Bowl Sunday in America. Now it is your chance! We’ll be watching in our homes.

FAQ Frequently Asked Questions

Here are some of the FAQs by people considering transitioning to coliving.

  • What is Coliving?

    Coliving is a residential model in which individuals get a private bedroom in a furnished home with shared common areas. It is a bunch of biologically unrelated people living together in the same place. Usually, residents in a coliving space share interests, values, or intentions.

    Coliving is a type of housing where people live together in a shared space, often with shared amenities. It is a re-imagination of the age-old concept of community, based on the tenets of openness, collaboration, the sharing economy, and social networking.

    Coliving spaces can be found in cities all over the world, but they are particularly popular in New York City. There are many different types of coliving spaces, from small apartments with a few roommates to large co-living communities with hundreds of residents.

    Coliving spaces often have common areas for residents to socialize, work, and relax, as well as shared kitchen and laundry facilities.

  • What are the benefits of co-living?

    Coliving can be a great way to meet new people and make friends, as well as save money on rent and other expenses. Co-living is affordable, convenient, and flexible.

    Many co-living spaces are located in convenient locations near public transportation, restaurants, and other amenities, which makes your commute time shorter, and affords you the advantage of greater productivity.

  • What amenities are typically included in a co-living space in NYC?

    Amenities typically available in coliving spaces include laundry, kitchen, swimming pools, workspaces, access to gyms and other health clubs, leisure areas, and spas. All the utilities and WiFi are included in the rental amount. Some spaces offer access to house cleaning services, and occasionally catered parties depending on the community. Coliving spaces catering to new parents may offer a playground for the children or access to vetted child care services.

    Co-living sounds like an answer to everything you’ve ever asked about homes, neighborhoods, or life as digital nomads. Some coliving spaces offer private bedrooms and bathrooms, while others have shared sleeping and living areas. Coliving spaces often have common areas for residents to socialize, work, and relax, as well as shared kitchen and laundry facilities.

  • Is co-living a good idea?

    Coliving can be a great choice for someone who wants to move to a big city, save big on a luxury apartment, and keep things simple. However, for someone who wants to live outside a major US city and doesn’t like the idea of sharing their space, it’s not a great choice.

    It is also a great fit for those who want to belong to a company of like-minded people and build their social network. It can be very rewarding and enriching to belong to a community of people with the same interests. You get to learn, grow, and develop yourself. You can also build a great working relationship, and potentially snag yourself a mentor or a co-founder.

    All the great companies were built by people in the same network! Coliving offers flexibility and helps foster friendships between strangers. Newcomers are sure to find themselves welcomed into the community with open arms.

    Coliving is a great way to learn about the cultures of other people and appreciate diversity. Another attraction of coliving is the lifestyle. Coliving houses are situated in busy areas, so cafes, bars, and shopping are only a couple of minutes away from your house, which is great if long commutes are a chore for you. It is a plus for you if your coliving community is located in a place with excellent nightlife.

    In terms of cost, coliving is firmly within the average price range for properties, being that you’re paying for both the house and the service rendered.

  • Does SharedEasy Have an App?

    SharedEasy does not have an app at the moment, just an amazing website with ample information and details on each property. Important information includes the number of units, their availability, and the appliances contained in each unit, as well as a map of the place and a tour of the property. There’s something for everyone on the website.

  • Where Can I Find a Coliving Space?

    There are coliving spaces all over the United States. SharedEasy offers coliving options in New York and Los Angeles. If you are interested in coliving spaces in New York City, SharedEasy has many destinations for you. There are spaces in East New York, Cobble Hill, Clinton Hill, Bushwick, Brooklyn Heights, Broadway, East Village, Inwood, Soho, Chelsea, Ridgewood, Hell’s Kitchen, Harlem, Midtown East, and Jersey City.

    All these coliving apartments are furnished according to the standards, and there are pictures up on the website. Beware of websites that have listings without pictures. Most of those are scams, and in these cases, people pay a security deposit, only to lose it.
