I'm not seriously looking to move there, but I look at jobs all the time and saw lots in NY. I looked at purchase and rental prices and even really cramped living space with window units and offsite laundry would take an excessive portion of take home pay without even beginning to worry about private school. To me it looked like rent and school would take almost 100% of income after taxes, so I wondered how anyone does it.
It's doable, but NYC is so fast paced, that I felt literally all I could do in my residency was wake up early, work late, rest, rinse and repeat! I got to save some money because I had no time or energy to spend it.
Now when I was single and mingling, you feel like the days are endless and there is so much( everything) to do at any time of day.
My biased opinion is NYC is a great city to study/train and be single, but not the best( or cheapest) of places to raise a family.
