The Upper East Side includes the area east of 5th Avenue from 60th Street north to 86th Street. 86th - 106th is also referred to as the Upper East Side but technically is Yorkville. There are many different neighborhoods in this one area, and many different types of people living amongst one another. The Upper East Side is a very residential area, with both co-ops, condos and rentals from walk ups to luxury buildings. Apartment prices fluctuate greatly in the Upper East Side, due to exact location and distance from Central Park. The Metropolitan Museum of Art and The Guggenheim are just an example of the treasures that sit on 5th Avenue, also known as Museum Mile.
