[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This area has the most ideal col to salary ratio. Only foolish people leave because of col.[/quote] Maybe, but this was not the case for us. Moved to a large metropolitan area (not east or west coast), and even though our HHI is pretty much the same, our house costs 1/2 as much as ours in Arlington. Food and childcare costs less. Transportation costs more because we use more gas and drive longer distances. We are coming out far ahead in the new city, plus quality of life is better (no metro commute, more space, nice people). [/quote] Good for you. I wish you and your family the best.[/quote]
