Miami's cost of living now tops New York City's despite Florida's tax advantages

The financial math behind fleeing high-tax states for a Florida paradise is hitting a major roadblock.

While the absence of a state income tax in the Sunshine State remains a powerful draw for transplants, a combination of rising property taxes, soaring property insurance premiums and everyday inflation has pushed Miami's total cost of living above New York City's for the first time.

A recent Bloomberg analysis found that data from the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis indicate that the combined cost of living in the Miami, Fort Lauderdale and Palm Beach region — dubbed the "Gold Coast" — is now roughly 5% higher than that of the New York metropolitan area and its surrounding suburbs.

I've considered buying a Condo in Miami at various points, but it's always like $2000 per month for HOA on those Condo buildings, and I immediately say "Fuck No"

It's a shithole anyways. There are many other places in Florida not principally populated by internet prostitutes, rappers, drug dealers, and corrupt politicians from around the world

Even if it is more expensive, YOU LIVE IN MIAMI. Nobody says "this Miami weather sucks, I'm going to New York". You don't have a communist mayor that wants to let criminals rob you and mulsims honor kill you.

The only risk you really take in Miami is running into MarioMiami305 or Floridaman.

It’s literally the worst curse God can put on a person, though Indians barely qualify.

This is the general consensus

Being indian is actually a great thing. we have beautiful people and we have ugly people. just like any race. I
for 1 am a great person, have great friends, and i take care of every
one that is in my life and i am glad to do it, and for that i have
people that love me around me. also, indian parents are one of the best
parents you can have. sometimes they can be really strict, but they will
take care of you no matter what, and they will buy you what ever it is
that you need

To be honest, every American city is now a shithole. Only some towns and little settlements in the sticks are good in these times

You guys seriously haven't been to Miami. It's a complete dump.

If anything you're attributing the areas North of it (West Palm Beach, Boca Raton, or even Fort Lauderdale) as "Miami". By that logic upstate New York is NYC and a beautiful place to live.

Miami just sprawls out for miles beyond its actual city limit..they pulled data from some.limited area

Florida is far far cheaper than NYC that's not even up for debate. The very idea that it's more than NYC is absurd

This is article just propaganda to keep business execs in NYC, it wont work

NYC has city income tax on top of state taxes

Miami is basically a real life Grand Theft Auto experience


Go ahead and move there if you don't believe me though. You'll get everything you deserve and more. Enjoy having this as your Mayor
