Reply to comment by sutisuc in Calculator for working in NYC vs NJ (while living in NJ) by Sonatarhia

I've looked at this a few times, and while I haven't run the numbers specifically, I don't think this is true. There does not appear to be an income level where living in NYC is cheaper than living in NJ. This is assuming you work in NYC in both cases, but I also believe it is true if you live and work in NJ.

I'm interested in being shown I'm wrong though, can you show us some math?

Ah thanks - I missed that. Yes, NYS can be a bit cheaper for high earners than NJ.
