At least it's not Joe's apartment.
Rats > Roaches
I lived in a shitty apartment in East Hollywood a few years back. Wish I took a closer look at the cabinetry before moving in because I saw little German roaches in every possible nook and cranny. Little bits of them were smashed up inside hinges, drawer rails, and even underneath the kitchen overhangs. The manager said it was my fault for not thoroughly inspecting the apartment before moving in. He had to concede later when rats decided to move in and shit all over my books. I once found a big fat one chilling on my dining room chair spine and do an unsuccessful jump to the kitchen cabinets before retreating to its hiding hole behind the dishwasher.
Frankly both rats and roaches suck.

The dichotomy of me: I have always wanted pet rats. I have also lived in a home with a horrible rat infestation. Like, to the point where whole sections of wall have been missing from them chewing them. Keep the food in plastic totes instead of cabinets, and they still chew through the totes. Wild rats, while the same species, are truly horrible to live with them. Not their fault. They're still adorable, intelligent little creatures. But good God does it absolutely suck to have them free ranging themselves in your walls
You have to keep thinks in metal containers. I used to keep dog food in a small metal garbage can with a handle that keeps the lid super tight.
I had a lot of mice (wooded lot) and between dog food and home brewing grains, I had to be very diligent. And I found a great company that did pest exclusion.

Just another day in New York, I guess? IDK I'm in Chicago, our rats are big enough to qualify as cryptids.

my grandmother grew up in Chicago and said the rats were as big as the politicians.

Sometimes it's hard to distinguish them. Three rats in a trenchcoat once got elected as an Alderman and nobody noticed for 7 months.
