[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People are moving south because it is cheaper and warmer. No surprise. [/quote] Its not happening because of warm weather, though its a cherry on the top. Their economic policies bring jobs and keep cost of living manageable and they've land for rather affordable single family housing.[/quote] Sure if you don't mind long commute times and no option for public transport. Living in the city is as expensive or more so than anywhere else (opposed to suburbs). Property taxes are among the highest in the country. I pay 40k/yr. Sure no income tax here, but on top of that I have to pay private school. All things public are terrible - infrastructure, schools, roads, parks (except the privately funded ones). Most people belong to private clubs so the economic divide is HUGE - folks are geographically separated and it's difficult for your kids not to grow up in some sort of bubble [/quote]
