NY is not a bad place to visit, but it is expensive to live here. The worst part is when you say you're from NY 99% of everyone immediately thinks of NYC. lol There is much more to it then that. I live in a nice spot. It is a very small town really close to Albany (state capital) and still close enough to being out in the sticks. I was fortunate enough to have been raised on a farm in the country, unlike some of my students in Summit Shock Incarceration Facility who have been uprooted from NYC to a location that is so high in elevation it does not qualify for the term higher elevation in the weather reports. lol Infact when I was up there today I was half expecting it to snow. Anyway, my students having been in a city all their life, they get all excited when they see a beaver or a deer running through the feilds. However they are not fond of it being so cold. I think it was only like 40 today up there when I went to meet the Program Administrator.
