I was doin the same thing a month or 2 ago but i decided to stay in DC. If you don't mind Harlem you can get a place for like $750/month. Or look at the west side around 57th street, I think it's a decent area and apt's start at like 1200 or so. My new job is a ton of travel too, and I cut my bills in half by taking on a roommate. Maybe consider that too, saves a ton of loot!

EDIT: Those places are close to the train, and if you look at the neighborhoods in Brooklyn near the A & C line I hear rent prices are a lot cheaper than Manhattan. And not that much father away either, it's like a train stop or 2 away from Manhattan. Oh yeah, get rid of your car, if you live in the city it's real expensive to keep a car and it's not necessary either. Your mileage may vary but that's what I found out....
