Thanks so much for the thought out reply! We're so excited to get up there and get going. But you're completely right, the housing is just pants on head crazy expensive. Trying to figure that out is going to take some time.

Yeah I was coming directly from Brooklyn when I moved to the upper Valley and almost fell over when the apartment prices were nearly identical. Everyone makes it work though. You’ll do great!

Yeah I was in a 1000 sq ft 1 bedroom 3 story walk up in Brooklyn for 2200 per month, and when I looked, a lot of the apartments were about 1700-1800 per month for around the same size.

I can’t honestly say I know what the prices are now, but I’m guessing they are similar. I do know they are building a couple new complexes near the hospital, but they probably won’t be done for a year or so. Maybe competition will drive the price down!
