I was reading an article earlier that Manhattan rents are at an all time high surpassing the record which was set in 2002 before the economy crashed.
I have heard the same about Manhattan. One of my employees just completed an internship with PWC in New York and he had to live over an hour away from work just to aford an apartment with a roommate. It probably takes seven figures in NYC to live like you would at just over six in LA or Texas.

Sorry to hi-jack the thread guys, I will give myself an infraction.
