[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm guessing Ithaca is cheap but Berkeley and Cville are as expensive as DC. [/quote]

Ithaca is cheap bc there is a serious job problem in upstate NY. It's fine if your work for Cornell or Ithaca College or are in healthcare and can get a job at one of the regional health systems or doctors offices. Aside from that -- it's tough going in finance, law etc. as those were all support industries in the big manufacturing corporations, many of which have now moved down south or out of the country.

I feel like Penn State people are always clamoring to go back to State College. Again not sure what there is to do there jobwise, unless you work for Penn State.[/quote]

Because it's a pretty awesome QoL all things considered, if you can nab a job at one of those places. There are UMC and wealthy people all over the country, you know, not just in the biggest cities. Think about living in Ithaca and making $250k plus. Pretty nice if you can swing it. [/quote]
