[quote=Anonymous]Pp who commented on the family nearby benefit, I re-read and saw your parents are in poor health so it may not end up being a support to you. But still, I can’t comment on living in ny since I never have. But my family and friends are in the dc area and we chose to move from another large city with better commutes to be closer to family and it’s been well worth it to us. I didn’t grow up close to my grandparents and watching my toddler build such a close relationship is really cool - it’s really clear that for us (with parents with good boundaries and a good relationship) this is a huge positive for our son. Even if your parents can’t provide a ton of support, it’s still nice to have your little community which it sounds like you would. We did move very close to our parents which I’m grateful for - we almost chose a different suburb and then decided if we moved here to be close let’s be close and not have to make big drives for that. So I would consider that if the commute makes any sense at all (again I don’t know ny). I do think your husbands commute and longer hours are a bit negative to be considered but I feel like there are positives others aren’t mentioning [/quote]
