[quote=Anonymous]State tax rates are very high in all 3 jurisdictions, especially DC and MD. Real estate obviously. Commuting - tolls, parking, gas. Food - both restaurant and groceries. Services, like home maintenance. And frankly there is an opportunity cost - everything here takes longer because of traffic, crowds, etc. Running errands here, compared to the small town where my summer home is, is more time consuming. Of course there are far more resources here, so it balances out in some ways. [/quote]
