A young woman left people stunned after she showed off her tiny apartment in New York City. 

In Caleb's content, TikTok sensation Caleb Simpson visited the house of the young woman, who lives on $500 a month for her studio apartment on Staten Island. 

The series focuses on touring people's homes to see how they live. He visited Egypt's home back in 2022, but the video has since resurfaced online after a man shared it on the Reddit platform.

In the footage, Caleb starts off with his signature introduction when he appears to stop Egypt in the middle of the street:  'How much do you pay for rent in New York?'

Egypt responds, '$500.'

He then offers to visit her apartment, to which she agrees.

The video reveals her small studio adorned in hues of pink. Confidently addressing everyone, she said, 'Welcome to my apartment.'

The footage depicted her apartment divided by a curtain rod, separating her sleeping area from her living space.

The simple layout of her apartment revealed her bathroom, which has a shower and a sink.

'It's so pink. This is incredible,' the TikTok creator responds. 

 Egypt said: 'It's really pink.'

Egypt shares the living space, pointing to a folding table and bright pink chair, as well as another surface for her to prepare food.

Egypt shares a small living space with a plastic sink, where she stores pot lids and other cooking utensils. To optimize the living space, she turned the wardrobe into a cooking space.

The video continued, showing her clothes hung on a shelf across from the kitchen. She also filled the small space with shelves stocked with pantry staples, a toaster oven, and what looked like a small refrigerator.

She didn't have a kitchen sink, so she washed the dishes in this bucket in the shower.

Her apartment is decorated in pink tones. The video shows her tiny space outfitted with strawberry-print curtains and a fuchsia non-slip mat. Even the toilet seat and sink cabinet are pink.

At the end of the tour, Caleb tested his bed and rated it a "reliable" 6/10.
