My designated escape from NY destination has been Las Vegas for the last decade or two. The current raft of socialist bull$hit flying around here may get me to pull the trigger.
But there's a problem. The high cost of living in LA has pushed a lot of californicators to move to Nevada, that is flipping the politics there, since the californicators bring the same attitudes that are destroying CA with them to NV. This may change the things I like about the place.
I have some investment properties in PA. Moving there may be an option. It's far ideal, but it's better than NY.
You need to spend some time in PA before making that move. If I could list the US states in order of where I'd live, PA is down near the bottom, like bottom five.
Jacksonville.
Next year.
Warmer city living in a historic district where I can buy a house easily. Getting a job is easy for me because I'm in health care.
Ding da-ding da-ding da ding! Congratulations city living!
You are the winner of a brand new black Mustang. Plus you have a choice between
Door #1 a two week long vacation in Bangkok Thailand at a 5 star resort and casino plus free massages every day and a cash package of $500 spending cash.
I’m considering moving to Boston as it has better baseball, better chowder, and it offers everything that NYC does as NYC has always tried to but never succeeded in becoming a better Boston. What is my prize?
Almost 40yrs living here and i dont feel like leaving yet. If i did have an option to leave either a few months of the year or completely from all the places ive traveled it would be one of these: oslo, hong kong, naples, barcelona.

You get a bunch of Red Sox clothes and hats and stuff because that's the only thing people in Boston have to identify with. Have fun. Also you win a box of Kleenex for wiping your tears when the Yankees or Mets win against the red sox!

Sounds about right, the Red Sox and the Yankees can go choke on a fat one

I am still not totally convinced that NYC no longer has anything unique to offer.
Where on earth did you get that, or take this thread to imply such a thing? People wish to leave New York City for other reasons: the housing is horribly overpriced: renting a shabby 1-bedroom walkup apartment with stained fixtures -- in run-down parts of Queens and the Bronx -- is approaching $2,000 a month (you'll pay even more in the better areas, and much more in Manhattan. The cost of services ain't cheap, either, from shoe repair to internet access. Public transportation is overcrowded every hour of the day (the empty subway cars at 2 p.m. in the 1990s are a quaint memory). Few ever questioned whether NYC "had anything to offer" -- it obviously does or 8.6 million people wouldn't live here now (one million more people than 25 years ago). But life is tough, very tough here, and just gets tougher.
