I rented a nice 1 bdroom within walking distance from work for 3000$

yea ouch.

I now rent a nice but tiny 550 sqft 1bdroom for 1900$

3 bdroom apts are extremely expensive.

however the trains are really good, so "walking distance" isn't that important

Yeah - you can get a nice size 2 bedroom in Brooklyn for $2500 a month and be 20 minutes from work by train.
