The high prices in Manhattan are caused by the low supply of other Manhattan-like density and public transit capable cities in the US.



Manhattan is expensive because rich people want to live there. Brooklyn and Queens and Harlem have density and transit but cost less.


Transit in Brooklyn and Queens is much worse than Manhattan.
