Discussion about
Talking about this over the past week with friends: we have a lot of friends who have moved to Westchester after graduating from the City and starting or getting ready to start their families. None to Nassau. Who these days is moving to Long Island? Is it really good anymore for educated families with kids and such? Certainly there were plenty of good public schools for my generation growing up based on the people I and my husband went to school with, but has the mix completely changed?
No. Like anywhere else, it depends on the town/neighborhhod. Don't know about the taxes in Westchester, but Nassau, and even Suffolk, especially in Incorporated villages, the property/school taxes are very high. Perhaps that's the reason.
If you own a $1MM home in Nassau vs $1MM home in Westchester, how much are you paying in taxes?
