I hate to have to be the one to tell you, but anything up and around that area is crazy !
I made some calls:
My friend in Hoboken pays $1500. Thats pretty low (he moved in 2 years ago). Average in that area now is 1600-1900.
My friend in Manhattan says he will have something available in Jan / Feb for 2100-2400. He would NOT charge you the normal 12-15% brokers fee.
Keep in mind anywhere you "rent" will charge you on average $4k up front in broker fees on top of a security deposit and renters insurance.
My buddy in the city said he'll take care of you in that respect. PM me if you want his number. Hes got two building 5 block apart in the lower east side.
