Apartment Hunting in NYC at 56 - Two Said No. Then This Happened

10 days. 4 people. 4 different locations. I wanted walking distance to my mom. What we found put everyone else exactly where they needed to be and me 25 minutes away, in the wrong direction. There's a pool, though. My back needed that. Two apartments said no. One said yes. This is how it happened. Starting From Here is a narrative documentary for Gen X women starting over at 50 - the real housing decisions, the real money, and the messy middle of reinvention in a city that doesn't slow down.
