I have lived in bergencounty NJ, Manhattan, Miami. I would say Everyone says the cost of living is high in Hawaii I havent heard one person say other wise. New York has the most expensive apartments and places to rent, Miami has the most expensive groceries and items you need for the house, bought a pound of shrimp for $15 in miami saw same size shrimps for $5.99 a pound in NJ two weeks later. Yes NJ has expensive towns and taxes but trust me There are so many other rich towns in the US like that. Most of the celebrities that own house in the tristate also own homes in Miami and other parts of florida with similar price tags orlando and Tampa are in expessive compared to Miami. Bergen county is only the 16th richest counties in the US meaning there are 15 other counties outside the tristate area which pay higher prices to live in which ever state they live in. and lets not forget. You my think your area is expensive but always remember there is always some where else more expensive than where you live. Unless if you live in alpine NJ or miami beach then no can really top you.
