Ouch. Why in the world is that place so expensive? I don't see any benefit to living in Massachusetts.

Neither do I :lol:

I really have no clue why, the problem now is that asshats are selling their homes for triple what they paid and moving up to bigger and bigger homes. I hope that in a couple years it evens out.. otherwise I am going to bug out.

I love upstate NY :)

I visited NYC a few weeks ago, the place smells bad, too crowded, too much traffic. I could never live there again. When I lived there 5 years ago the smell didnt bother me, the traffic didnt seem as bad.... now when I visit I see the diffrence and cant figure how I ever did it.

Shame you don't have one of those overpriced homes, Hamma. You'd have quite an investment on your hands if you did. My dad and I are actually thinking about buying a condo somewhere since real estate is going up so much.

The only reason I care to travel to upstate New York is for paintball, or school (which there is only a year left). I could never leave NYC area. I love the large amounts of people.


I live in White Plains, which used to be in the top ten cities for highest cost of living. It will soon be there again, with all the buildings they are putting up.
