How Much Would it Cost to Live on SST?

I found this interesting and amusing little article that calculated how much it would cost to live on SST, if it were an actual residential street in Queens.

Kind of makes me glad that the relatively spacious two-bedroom/two-and-a-half-bath condo I live in is only $675 a month.

The only problem with that article is that it took the "head to Queens" thing too literally. Anyone familiar with the knows that there have always been a million hints that the street is somewhere in Manhattan.

I've noticed there's almost a generalized idea that the street is somewhere in Queens, simply because the Kaufman-Astoria studios are in Queens.

It gets confusing, because it almost seems as if the boroughs and neighborhoods in NYC are like their own mini-cities, and it seems like some of those boroughs have their own boroughs.
