[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP's premise is faulty. I want to move back to the DC area because it is so much cheaper than Paris, where DH now found work. But we go where work is. Let me point out that DC is one of the cheaper capital cities of the developed world you could ever live in! No US city makes the top 10 most expensive cities to live in, worldwide. Now I think they're all in Asia. [/quote] Your premise is faulty, because you're comparing apples to oranges. France offers universal healthcare and lengthy parental leave benefits. Housing may be more expensive, but Paris's public transportation network is better. Just because some other foreign cities are more stressful hellholes to live in doesn't make DC awesome for everyone, even if you love it.[/quote]
