I am considering moving to NYC with my wife and 2 years old daughter.
How much does it cost for living there including rent, food, insurance and any other expenses.
Thank you.
I am living on the west coast of Puerto Rico in a town called Moca. I would like to move to Tampa, Florida and would like to know if anyone has an idea if it would be more expensive living in Tampa. I am retired and I have a good income. I would buy a house in Tampa.
Thanks.
John
