I wanted to move there for a year. What are the best months weather-wise? I think it’s May and November. Talk to me.

I don’t live there, just posted this article Altucher wrote.
Try to contact him on twitter, linkedin, etc or someone like him they can give you the local scoop for sure.
Best month is September. We have very hot summers, hardly no spring and cold winters from Nov-March.
If I lived in NYC I would have moved out years ago ... but if I could live in the NYC area one month of the year it would be October.
There is a NYC resident Freeper - name MissDidi
May/June and Sept/Oct
If you are not old yet, stick to the similar 40th latitude locations. If you are old go to Florida. it’s hot, you won’t be cold, that’s why they do it.
Forget about months—get the _year_ correct.
Wait ten years until there is a decent mayor and the city turns it around...
Are you high or drunk?
Why in the Hell would you want to live in a city where you'd easily be spending $100 bucks A DAY to move around, get food, and pay various fees and taxes?
I thought about doing the New York thing, even under Bloomingidiot when he at least ran the city competently, and my girlfriend at the time said no thanks.
May to October or November or if you like the holiday season (not being PC - I just consider the Holiday Season to be from just Halloween/Thanksgiving thru Christmas and New year), if you like Christmas in the city at least stay until December 26th. Most New Yorkers do not go to Times Square for new Years (mostly tourists do that). They stay at home and watch it on TV if they’re not at a New Years party closer to home in their own borough.
But for the warm to hot weather definitely from May thru september.
Depends on what you think the best month ought to be.
I hate the place in the summer. Then again I hate summer.
Spring is wonderful as the streets lined with trees begin to bloom. Always a great time to take in museums.
Fall is great for letting you know that heavier style meals are coming and I just love seeing the streets decorated as the holidays progress.
Love going to the churches. Not Catholic but, they are so beautiful and I feel like I’m close to God as I light a candle consider someone or something important to me.
Winter is so much fun. Everything is decorated, Wollman is open, eating bagels at Eli’s Bread Factory and having a cup of coffee start my day as I walk from 1st and Lexington down to World Trade and discover sights I missed before
October is the best, I’d say.
You would want to visit NYC in the Fall. Please note there is a lovely song “Autumn in New York “ there’s no Springtime in NY or April in NY. Spring is cold and then it goes instantaneously to hot and miserable. I was born in NY and lived there until I was 30 years old. There’s pretty much no Americans who live there any more and it’s a shame to see the hard work that Rudy Giuliani did be destroyed.
The BEST view of NYC is the one you see in your rear view mirror.
Welcome to NYC, home of bumper-to-bumper traffic anywhere you go. Home of alternate days parking, when parking on the wrong side of the street on the wrong day can cost you well over $100 in fines. Get used to circling the block several times to find a parking space, finally getting one 2 blocks from your house and you're toting heavy grocery bags---and 3 or more cars lined up behind you if you look like you're leaving your space.
Get used to very high property taxes, sales taxes and any other kind of taxes.
Get used to worn-away lane markings so you to guess what lane you're in--and burnt out street lights not replaced.
Get used to bums trying to get a handout from you. I hope no one mugs you or attacks you because you're white or just because you're there.
Get used to a horrible public transportation system which almost guarantees you'll be late wherever you're going. You get to play "Count the Rats" scurrying on the subway tracks at night and weirdos approaching you on the platform. The bus and subway fares only go up, while the service goes down. Be prepared to duck as urban teens come into your subway car and proceed to use the handholds as a jungle gym, accompanied by LOUD crap music supplied by a portable stereo system. Tuck yourself in really good as their sneakers fly past your face and narrowly miss it.
If you do find a place to live that you can afford, make sure it has excellent security. I hope you like the sound of sirens and car alarms day and night, BTW.
Remember, the insane City Council passed a law in January which lets perpetrators of even serious crimes to leave the police station immediately after arrest without bail or jail, freeing them to go and commit the same crime the next day and the next. And believe me, they have.
And remember, the same insane City Council and the commie mayor DumblASSio stripped a BILLION BUCKS from the NYPD. So now they have the regular crimes to deal with AND the idiots burning, looting, and assaulting for Antifa and Anschmifa, plus BLM. Anarchy is the new normal in a lot of NYC's neighborhoods now.
I am so very happy I moved out of NYC last fall. I had honestly forgotten what contentment, happiness, even bliss had felt like. I get far nicer service at any store I go to. No alternate parking, always get a parking space close by. Absolutely love the extensive trees and expansive meadows I see as I drive around in the area. This is a far better place to live. There is nothing in NYC I can't get here and none of the stuff I described above to have to endure. Forget NYC!
