[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've never lived IN DC so I have no idea if it's cheaper [b]but it's not cheap. We pay $2300 a month in rent for a nice townhouse near good schools.[/b] 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. 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. [/quote] You think that's not cheap? Seriously? That's peanuts. [/quote] No it's not cheap. It's cheaper than DC but it's not cheap. [b]We own a house in another state and the mortgage is $700 including insurance and property taxes. THAT is cheap.[/b] [/quote] Are you kidding me? That's not cheap! You can get a mansion in Somalia for about $40 a month.* And that comes with your own militia! *Has the same amount of relevance to this discission as your house in another state. (Is the state of confusion? The state of cluelessness?)[/quote]
