It is crazy in the sense that government has too much power and is completely out of control in spending, expanding government and over taxing it's citizens. Just take a look at the news media that is so heavily biased in favor of increased taxes and Socialism. Then look where most of them based out of, NYC.
However it is one of the most beautiful states in the nation and there is always plenty of things to do.

It's no better or no worse than where you live... California. An equally expensive state that is losing population... albeit it gets more sunshine.

In Upstate NY, if you find a good job, you will enjoy some of the cheapest cost of living in the country. NY has a tremendous amount of things to do.

Long Island, although very expensive, is BEAUTIFUL. I think you'd like it over there!
