High taxes depend on your version what high means. This is NY.....nothing's cheap here.
Hoosick Falls is pretty out there. Any commute to Colonie would be long even without weather. There's no direct access.
As for the roads, state roads are usually kept pretty well. It's the back roads that you have to worry about and there's lots of them.
A quick check on Mapquest says it's 45 minutes from Hoosick Falls to Colonie. Of course that doesn't include specific addresses or take into account the horrible Route 7 traffic. On a good day with no traffic, 45 minutes sounds reasonable. But add some traffic and weather and it's waaaay longer than 45 minutes.
Do you currently live in the area? If not, be sure to physically visit any place you are considering moving to. I read on here all the time people who move and are miserable. They just went by info they found online and never visited the place! DUH! Every town paints a rosy picture online. What town is going to put on their website we're the slums of the east coast? Not saying Hoosick Falls are the slums either. Don't want anyone to misconstrue that.
