[quote=Anonymous]Cough, cough. Schools. [quote=Anonymous]These people are all insane, op. Move into NYC proper with that income. Pay almost nothing in property taxes. Buy in fieldston or forest hill, or Brooklyn. Easy life, nicer people, low property taxes... Done. Quality of life there vs Arlington? Not even a contest. One thing about NYC? Its metro does not catch on fire every day.[/quote] The reason people pay 30, 40 grand in property taxes in Westchester is because it's a lot cheaper than putting 2-3 kids through NYC private schools. And outside a select handful of elite magnets your public school options are limited. As it is, I would take NYC suburbs on 500K over Arlington at 400K because I like the area better that I'm willing to put up with the inconveniences and higher taxes. [/quote]
