[quote=Anonymous]The problem is that it's hard to compare. For example, it would be hard to find a fifth floor walkup without a washer dryer or dishwasher in DC. Those are common in NY. If you're single you'll be fine. If you want to have a family forget about it it. You'd have to live in the burbs and commute or outside of Manhattan. We found that we could afford the steep rent in NY (4500 2 bedroom 950 sq feet) but we couldn't also pay that rent and save up the hefty downpayment needed to buy. On top of that pay for a nanny (is usually cheaper than daycare in New York) and school tuition. [/quote]
