When you split your time between different states, be sure to keep careful records of where you are every day. The politicos in NY and NYC are just waiting to get their teeth into your money. Keep your income and earnings out of reach by ensuring that you are not considered a NY or NYC resident.
"You are a New York State resident for income tax purposes if:
your domicile is New York State (see Exception below); or
you maintain a permanent place of abode in New York State for substantially all of the taxable year and spend 184 days or more in New York State during the taxable year, whether or not you are domiciled in New York State for any portion of the taxable year. Note: Any part of a day is a day for this purpose."
Yep. I have been doing that ever since I stopped renting out my Bronx condo, and started using it as my own pied a terre. Every morning as I brush my teeth I call my voice mailbox on the phone, so there is a phone record of where I was located that day, ie, from where I made at least one call every day of the year (and then I download a copy of the log of my calls when I get the phone bill). Daily phone records are almost the only thing that NYC/State tax hounds accept as an evidence that you weren't in NYC/NY State on a particular day.
The rich should stop living there as many have moved out and let the poor eat their own. COVID19's gift is, nobody needs to work or live in NYC anymore.

Which is odd because with how things work today you could be calling from anywhere with any phone number. Or are you calling from a fixed land line with documentation showing the outbound call?
This would maybe make sense, because the city is legit in trouble, if there was first a good-faith effort by the city to cut its own government waste. And if there was a good-faith effort by the city to make it safe and livable here. Instead, I gather than Stringer intends to continue harassing the police. And he claims he wants to do something about the school situation, but it seems to be beyond saving even if he wanted to fix it (which I kind of doubt from anyone who is serving in the current government).

With how things work today, you can pretend to be calling from a different phone number located somewhere else, but you can't pretend to be calling from your own cellphone number located somewhere else. Your wireless plan will always show the location of the outgoing phone calls made from your own cellphone number. You can't change that.
Translation: the wealthy should be prepared to continue fleeing NYC.
