[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Okay, Lucille Bluth. "How much could a banana cost? Ten dollars?"[/quote] Lol. This comment wins. Everything about living in a HCOL is more expensive. Housing, usually income and property taxes, transportation, gas, groceries, restaurants, the movies. And then there is the culture aspect of it - if you live in a NYC or Boston or DC, you’re surrounded by great culture and theater, and will want to partake in those. You’ll be surrounded by wealthier people and tourists who are willing to pay premiums for those services, hence driving up the cost. [/quote]
