The OP suggest NYC (230sq/ft - lease) vs midwest suburbs (5000 sq/ft - mortgage) for the same price. It shouldnt even be a discussionWhere is a home for 1900 a month in NYC?
How often are you going to the airport, eating a Michelin star restaurants and needing access to an Apple Store?
Fair enough. I care more about my accommodations than what’s it close to (within reason. I would never live in a rural area). If my home is my sanctuary, then all the other stuff is extra. I wanted a big kitchen, a man cave and a large basement for entertaining family and friends… can’t do that in 230 sqft apartment. Different strokes for different folks.-Airport, every other week minimum.
-Michelin star, I do one a month intentionally some months it’s 3.
-apple store, it’s been about 2 years since I dropped my phone and the display turned green and being able to walk into apple 5th ave on a drink night at 3 am was clutch.
Most importantly I love New York City life and that in itself is invaluable. If you love where you live you can understand that. Living somewhere cheaper doesn’t appeal to me
