[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have quite a few friends who recently moved to North Salem, South Salem, and Ketonah areas of northeast Westchester County, NY. Housing is definitely more affordable there, your money stretches a lot further. It's also on the commuter rail lines into the city. Excellent Westchester public schools.

I strongly agree with the poster who said you have A LOT more in-state college options in NY. The tuition is CHEAP too. Like $4K per year in tuition for 4-year college. NY state highly funds the colleges. CUNY, FIT, Stonybrook, Baruch, Brooklyn College, John Jay, Hunter, landgrant schools at Cornell, SUNY colleges (Albany is the best), Maritime college, etc.

It blows NJ and CT public university systems out of the water.[/quote]

Tuition is $6.5k. With room and board, fees, etc. it comes out to about $20k a year.

SUNY-Albany is a good school, but the best of the SUNY system? No. It depends on what major your child wants to pursue.

That said, it is a great deal compared to NJ and CT.[/quote]

In-state Rutgers without aid is more than $30,000 without all the little expenses added in, and $40,000 all in. [/quote]
