“I think most of the civilized world pretty much wouldn’t care if Texas ceased to exist.”
Agreed. But it does not change the fact that your assertion that “everybody wants to live here” is false.
good luck finding a job.
amazing place, nearly impossible to find work.
Portland, here I come!!
If you want to compare NY real estate to other markets for the true purpose of analyzing real estate, you’re best off comparing it to other comparable markets, and unfortunately there really aren’t any in the US. In my opinion, a better comp would be London, Tokyo, or Hong Kong.
I think the general problem with comparing NY to other real estate markets in this country is that it’s just a pointless exercise, that simply points out that NY is more expensive. No kidding. And I think you get what you pay for, and the supply vs. demand sets the price. Economics 101.
If you read through these posts, I would argue that the bashing began with the people bashing NY. New Yorkers just defended it. And I think it’s plain fact that New York is extremely unique and that real estate here is in much higher demand (compared with supply) than any other city in this country. DC or otherwise.
You all sound like freaking transplants anyway…probably B&T and midwest.
Those on this thread who hate New York City and live here anyway are truly the most sad of people.
The fact that you find it horrible to love the place you live is kinda sick for you.
I’m guessing you’ve settled for the wife too, 7:26?
Feel bad for your kids.
Right, this blog is about NY real estate. And occasionally, it’s normal to compare real estate values in NY with other markets. But anytime that is done, the “true New Yorkers” you mention (uh-huh, yeah right) get up in arms and incredibly aggressive, defensive, and insulting. These people are like infants. So any sort of objective discussion about market values, including the intangibles that affect a property’s value, becomes impossible. The threads degenerate from there.
I’m sorry you have low self esteem, 7:26.
Can you tell me why you chose to live in a city you hate?
Doesn’t everyone want the best for themselves? New York is the best for me so I chose to live here.
It seems to not be the best for you, yet you settled for it.
I feel sorry for you.
Loving where you live is a special thing that apparently you don’t seem to be able to experience.
And 7:32….
I think most of the civilized world pretty much wouldn’t care if Texas ceased to exist.
I can’t say the same about NY.
Why all the animosity about NYC?? This blog is about NY real estate, and seems to be generally geared towards people who live in this city (and tend to love it, b/c how can you not if you truly ‘get’ this city?) I just don’t see the point of coming on a site like this and bashing New York. As many posters have suggested, if you’re ready to leave and hate NY, then please, by all means do. We who do love this city are frankly glad to see you go. Why do feel the need to spread your vitriolic opinions amongst true New Yorkers? Anonymously, no less. Nice.
