Loading ...I I own nothing? Because of taxes?? Thats a strange statement. Can’t figure out why you think that. Zillow any town in Nassau or Suffolk county to see average property taxes run $12,000 to $40,000 per year. Commercial space? Forget about it, $60,000 to $100k and up for small places. You can make money here. And the best place to live. “The function of price is for the allocation of scarce things”
My sons neighbor a long time ago had a garage built and it added $700. Probably a lot more today. I know someone that has an empty waterfront lot, 100×100 and a $7800 annual tax bill. Renting out doc space barely covers the taxes.
I have a brother in Ca, taxes are dirt cheap, I know, but they add costs to your gasoline tax. Years ago 1979 I bought a building lot, and paid only $42/yr tax. I sold it soon before the crash in 2008.
Nobody I know lives in NYC. I don’t care about NYC. I was there maybe 10 times in my entire lifetime. I went to the top of the Trade center building and the Empire state building. Its an interesting place, and where you go or live to make lots of money.
I hate to see you get stressed and upset thinking about what its like to live in NYC. I myself wouldn’t live in Ca for free. You should move to Suffolk County NY, you would love it if you can afford it. Many people have a little back yard cottage or separate apartment to rent to help with property taxes.
There are at least ten million people living happy around NYC. Brooklyn Queens etc. Where are you getting your information??? Cancel that subscription. LOL
My old neighborhood, this guy paid $925k 15 years ago and trying to sell now for $925k. Probably $25k tax bill.

Wife and I looked at this house for sale around 1980 went for $42k. Heating oil and interest rates was too high and people were leaving to sun belt states.
