Sewer: almost always included, as is water.
Trash pickup: that’s part of city tax for anything residential, so also included.
Very basic cable (i.e. the air channels + C-SPAN + a few other channels): generally included
Internet/phone/advanced cable: virtually never included. Choices for phone/internet are generally Verizon (FiOS or DSL), or cable (Time Warner or Optonline, depending on area). Without advanced cable TV, you’re talking $60-80/mo.
Question is, is downtown SD vs Manhattan an apples-to-apples comparison, or are the more residential parts of Manhattan equivalent to North Park, with the trency parts of Brooklyn being equivalent to the beach cities? Or vice versa, or something.
Downtown SD seems more equivalent to Midtown Manhattan and the Wall St. area, if anything.
