What should I expect when moving from California to New York?
The culture in New York is different from that in California. As a newbie, you may not know what to expect to find. Here are a few things that you will be forced to adapt to once you make the move:
- The weather
California enjoys a Mediterranean climate which has hot, dry summers and mild, rainy winters. New York experiences a continental climate that has cold winters and hot summers. The winters can be severe. The 2014 November winter dumped more than 6 feet of snow on Buffalo city.
- Public transport
Unlike California which has a driving culture, New York has one of the busiest and most connected public transport systems in America. It’s fairly easy to do without a car in NY. Think of all the car repair, maintenance, and payment savings you’ll make.
- Job prospects
The Big Apple’s job market is thriving. It is the hub for jobs in finance, arts, fashion, and also in tech. Ecommerce giant Amazon, for example, is looking to open a warehouse on Long Island. There are also plenty of jobs in healthcare and hospitality.
- Real estate prices
The biggest downside to New York is its high real estate prices. You’re likely to fork out $3000 per month for a one-bedroom apartment in New York depending on the location. A similarly sized apartment in San Diego may only cost you half of that. However, New York does have a much cheaper cost of living as compared to California.
- Plenty of activities
There are plenty of ways to fill your weekend in New York. There are numerous indoor and outdoors activities, events, and festivals all over the state. If you are an arts fan, there are plenty of activities to indulge in. Some of them include the famous Broadway shows, jazz concerts, and films at the Lincoln Center.
