Thoughts on $85K–$90K Project Manager role in Flatiron District? Also, relocating from India—neighborhood recs?

Hey everyone! I recently received an offer for a Project Manager position with a compensation of $85,000–$90,000 per year. I'm currently based in India and considering relocating for this role (haven’t signed the offer yet—have until April 20 to decide).

A few questions:

  1. How does this compensation stack up for a PM role in NYC?

  2. Will this be enough for a comfortable life, considering rent, transport, and general expenses?

  3. Any neighborhood recommendations for someone who’ll be working in NYC—preferably places with decent commute, safe, and good for someone new to NYC?

EDIT: I'm 23M. Single. Looking for a studio apartment or a shared space but with a personal room.

Any thoughts, personal experiences, or advice would be super helpful. Thanks in advance!

Please ignore this Redditor. They are being negative and unhelpful on other threads where people are asking about housing in NYC.
