Sorry Brian, we New Yorkers got you beat... A studio in a decent part of
Manhattan either sells for $1,000,000 or rents for at least $2500/month.
That is the lower end of the spectrum. Around the Battery Park City area
(one block from the former World Trade Center site) there are [bargains]
now they say for $3500 a month :-)
In the outskirts, a DECENT house (not a real big or super nice one) can
easily go for $400,000 and 90% of the time there is a fight and ends up
going for a lot more.
The 1, 2, 3, 4 million dollar homes are actually more abundant in the
real estate listings than lesser priced homes.
However, my usual gauge for cost of living ANYWHERE is the price of a
standard gallon of milk. In my neighborhood, it is $3.25 a gallon...
