Why point to anywhere in my post where I appear to exude any form of glee whatsoever?
Not sure what it is, maybe not glee, but you do love to point out how expensive real estate is in San Francisco....in numerous threads. I guess I look at that as being proud of that fact. Not my place to judge, though. I just think it's too bad that there are so many who can't afford to own a home. I would not be happy living in an apartment, but that's just me.

Yeah I agree with this. NYC gets a lot of crap for being expensive and rightfully so, but there are still areas where it's relatively not that expensive. I have been lightly looking for my girlfriend at areas in Brooklyn and Queens and she's found some decent places for like $1000-$1200 per person there. I think a city like NYC benefits from the fact that so many people live there and can still have areas where it doesn't cost an arm and a leg to live.
Toronto Proper $1,042,405 Canadian = $782,000 US
Toronto Region $613,933 Canadian = $460,000 US
The dollar's current strength against the Canadian is somewhat helpful but the OP asked about how expensive metros generally are, not necessarily how expensive it is for an American expat. It's still very pricey in Toronto and Vancouver for Canadians.
^ Yeah, not to mention that the Canadian and American dollars were at par just a few years ago and could very well be again sometime in the not too distant future.
Los Angeles just made history in the real estate market by setting a new asking price of $500 million for a new mansion in Bel airs,Beverly hills got something now on the market for $195 million.
Off a guess, I think the top 5 seems to be largely perceived as any order and/or combination of Honolulu, Vancouver, New York, San Francisco Bay Area, and Toronto or San Diego.
