The Hidden Costs of City Living

Patricia Bolgiano, 51, a production coordinator near Baltimore, also wrote in to point out that she has saved money—and improved her quality of life—since moving outside the city itself. She says her city tax rates were higher, food cost more, and homeowners and car insurance payments cost more.

Since she moved outside the city, she feels safer and farther away from violence, as well. She also says that she pays less for gas—along with insurance, taxes, and food. “Yes, living in the city is fun and convenient, but there are costs and trade-offs,” she says. She presumably pays less for her Internet connection, too, since she now uses a dial-up connection.
