The UES is one of the most upscale areas in New York City and has a reputation for being home to the wealthy. However, there are also plenty of Upper East Side apartments that meet every price point. You can anticipate a slower, relaxed vibe as you meander around the neighborhood’s infamous cultural institutions such as The Guggenheim Museum and the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The area offers smaller style cafes and bistros, locally owned chains, and specialty shops serving up delicious bites for residents to enjoy. With Central Park just to the west, there is no better place to go for a walk, jog, bike, or simply to enjoy a picnic on a sunny day in Manhattan.
