Bronx home from which AOC launched campaign sells for $250K
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s former Bronx home, where she launched her successful congressional campaign in 2019, has sold for $250,000, according to sources. Records show that the Democrat was renting the two-bedroom, one-bathroom pad in the Parkchester section since 2018. Although this was her consistent address throughout her time representing New York’s 14th congressional district, neighbors previously told The Post they rarely saw her around. Following her election win, one neighbor, who lived down the hall from the congresswoman’s apartment for 40 years, said he’d never seen her or her fiancé Riley Roberts, who had also claimed the address as his own. The unit, measuring just over 760 square feet, has been completely renovated and includes an open-concept remodel, stainless steel appliances, granite counters, a tile backsplash, counter seating, and a remodeled bathroom.
However, Ocasio-Cortez has contested claims that she still lived in the home. Despite records showing that she continues to mark down that address as her Bronx residence in election petitions, Ocasio-Cortez says that she moved out of the 760-square-foot unit shortly after her 2019 election win. The congresswoman has also declined to disclose her current address for safety reasons.
According to a representative, even though she no longer lives in the home, Ocasio-Cortez resides in the NY-14 district and had moved into another two-bedroom apartment in the area.
