72k in NY is just above poverty. 77k in Texas is upper middle class.

You forget NYC residents tax and the MTA tax your utilities.

[LegsIn]

Texas doesn't have a state income tax

[spookysenpai]

I prefer NY bc cold weather, public transportation, and there's some affordable housing in the outskirts of New York City. That's only if you make 6 figures to live a good life there

New York : Federal Income Taxes + State Income Taxes
Texas : Federal Income Taxes only

[kdkrzux]

If you were in NYC there is county income tax and city income tax which comes down to another 8-9%

NY baby but you should really compare cities like Dallas to Whiteplains, NY. You can only compare Manhattan or Brooklyn to San Francisco, Paris, Toronto, London, and etc. Upstate NY property taxes is dirt cheap compared to downstate NY.

You will not make $100k in Texas. You will make $65k

[jakeesayian]

Great info, but including cost of things like housing the gap grows large

[nommo]

Thank you my other Texans for explaining to this man that we do not have state income tax and our sales taxes 8.25%, but to all you other people that want to come to Texas don't we're running out of resources right now

I’m from NYC, and 100k will keep you in the hood, while 100k in Houston or Dallas would let you live comfortably in a nice neighborhood.

I’m too black for TX and I’m an immigrant that STILL has bad experiences here in the NORTH 😅 I’m good in NY 😭 so sorry but on of those bad experiences was LAST NIIIGHT

There is a difference b/n NY as state and NYC as city. You can live comfortably in NY other cities with 100K. Upstate NY, 100k a whole lot. 40 minutes away from NYC. You don’t have to live in nyc if u can’t afford it.

To everyone telling him texas doesn't have a state tax, I think he's accounting for federal and state income state for NY and just federal in TX.

In texas you need a car = $600 car + insurance $200 = $800 monthly + gas $150 = TOTAL : $11400 year, (don't count repairs). Subway in NYC is $2.75 per ride or unlimmitted ride for $33 weekly, that's it. we could go on...

[frankb]

The TX sales tax is 8.25% when you include the local taxes, which are collected everywhere in the state except some rural areas.

[seccat]

NY can keep the lights on 💡🥶. We also won’t die if the A/C goes out for a week.

[gamerjunction]

My property tax in Texas is 7.5% of my gross income. He is ignoring the School Taxes that are a huge take

[serzambrano]

Companies know cost living taxes and all those tricks so they will lower wages to match cost of living.

[Danielg]

Live in NY the property taxes will account for more than 6k
