Any $ in NYC for me.

Depends what kind of city you want to live in.

Haha no colder than other northeast cities, but yes of course compared to DFW. Worth the trade-off for me.

Better value? DFW.

Better city? NYC.

Well. I would never try to start a family in NYC. DFW have some of the best schools in the country.

Would never live in nyc 🤮 - would choose dfw in this scenario. But as many have said, it depends on what your style is outside of work.

Is $$$ your only objective? There is more to this equation, or should be.

Me personally nope- but that’s specifically what I called out since OP didn’t specify what they want in a place to live. Honestly any MCOL/LCOL city is good enough for me. I’m not picky at all, any city is going to have what I need in a place to live. It’s the friends and family that matter most

NYC if you want to have some fun over the weekends. DFW is pretty flat and you’d get bored after certain time.

Dfw will go further.

NYC easy

Even if you can’t mitigate state taxes like everyone else, the opportunity, infrastructure, and services blows away DFW

Nyc. Better exit ops at higher $$ too.

Was making in $170k in Houston, $250k got me to same place financially in Manhattan albeit with a smaller place and no car

DFW

Go for freedom. Choose Texas.
