There's a reason why people dream to live in NYC and spend many years of their lives trying to move here. You don't get that with a city like Dallas or Atlanta. You only hear this from southerners on C-D.

This is about NYC, not NYS.

Keep on thinking that when others are laughing...

It isn't that hard to afford to live in NYC. After all, most people living there are middle class as far as salary goes. Since this is the the case, everyone should be moving there since it is, as you and the 4 others have pointed out, the "Mecca" of the universe rather that the opposite

Hint: Stop starting arguments that you know you are not prepared for intellectually... ok Rachael?

Enough with it. Stick to the damn facts. I hate dealing with people like you, you make public school systems in our country look retarded because you make a claim and do not back it up.

Have a good day.

I edited my post with a link.

Anyway, I lived in NYC for almost my entire LIFE. Everyone I have met is good enough backup to who is moving in here.

Pure BS. Click on the map that Awesome Danny Scraper provided for proof. The metro NY area appears to be making a beeline for those very cities.

More denial, but what else is new?

Congratulations professor, why don't you accept a job at Columbia University now to teach urban planning and migration patterns. You surely seem ready for it.

This is the post of the year. This is HILARIOUS.

So I guess most people can afford $3000 a month rents? What about spending $800 a month to park your car?

The general rule in NYC is that your income should be 40x your rent. So, in your logic, most people in the country make $120,000 a year, ROFL.

Obviously, YOU can afford to live in the area as a "teacher" (as you claim to be). Middle class pay. I can certainly afford to live there, but have no desire to. Many people poutside your ignorant little bubble in Levittown feel that way... Travel a little

Ok, I posted my own article as proof. How would you know what migration is like in this city when you never lived here? That's just like me saying I know everything about Atlanta based on one website. You would call me out on the same thing. Pot, meet kettle
