+1 OP our HHI is similar to yours and our life is very comfortable here. I think it would take $1M+ HHI to have something comparable up there. I would only make the move if you actually want to live in NYC and have that experience.[/quote]

That’s a ridiculous #. We make 500k combined in NYC, have a nice 3500 sf house in a top school district. We shop at Whole Foods, cater holiday meals, workout with trainers… what do people need 1mm for? Of course don’t turn it down if it’s offered.[/quote]

Where is your house?
Do both parents commute into NYC?
How long is the commute?
Do the kids go to public schools? [/quote]

Northern Westchester.
I commute 4 days, DH commutes 2 days. 
50 min train ride.
Top public school, property tax is about 40k/year. 
We save plenty, have extra to buy nice furniture and take 2 trips per year. [/quote]
