[quote=Anonymous]this is a spin off from the thread about moving to Maine/Vermont. Someone said that NYC is a great place to live but you need a LOT of money to be able to take advantage of what it has to offer- Question is, and I know this is purely subjective- what is a LOT of money? I'm going to put out a number that think provides generously in the district- 300k. This way you have enough for a townhome EOTP DC, save fore 529s, retirement and vacations, this is the HHI the I felt like our family of 5 was very comfortable but we also have familial obligations and some student loans . Kids in charters, weeks of summer camp, 1 activity per season, and 1 musical instrument per kid. RE is the big kicker .. so say you go from townhome to a 1800 sq ft coop/condo? To afford this life- what would be a good household income?[/quote]
