[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've never lived IN DC so I have no idea if it's cheaper but it's not cheap. We pay $2300 a month in rent for a nice townhouse near good schools. Property taxes are high- we don't own here so we don't pay taxes on a home, but for our two vehicles we pay about $850/year in property taxes for our car decals. Gas is right now about $3.35/gallon out here (or was last time I filled up a couple days ago). If you still have to work in DC, I honestly imagine most of your expenses would stay about the same out here and anything you saved would probably be eaten by your commute. [b]It's probably not in reality much cheaper, it's just that you might get a little more for your money... e.g., a 4 bedroom townhouse for $2300/month vs. a 1 bedroom apartment for the same. [/b][/quote] That's the definition of cheaper. "Yeah, it's the same. I mean, you get a 4 BR townhouse for what you would pay for a 1 BR apartment, but it's not like it's CHEAPER out here." <headdesk>[/quote]
