And commute daily? Not a good idea.
2 :
Not to mention that they're two hours apart. You'll get sacked with taxes. You'll pay New York City income tax PLUS Philadelphia non-resident wage tax.
3 :
it would be rather inconvenient and quite expensive to commute and also pay unusually high taxes in two locations. It is also more common to live in or near Philadelphia and commute to NYC than the reverse. That is because housing tends to be much more expensive in NYC than Phila. or its suburbs.
4 :
thats really far away, if u wanna work in philly i suggest south nj.
5 :
no, that's a bad idea. Too far of a commute and you'll be taxed so much that it's just not going to be economical.
6 :
Why on earth would you do that? o_O Absolutely not it's like a 5 hour commute.
7 :
Nobody with brains or money wants to live in NY. The tax policy & bridge tolls alone make it a reason to leave. Even a pack of cigs cost your first born male child up there....
8 :
I would not unless this is a dire situation. I live in the northern suburbs of Philadelphia and its about an hour and a half to manhattan (I'm assuming you're in the new your city area) It will take you probably 3 hours or more during rush hour to get here.
9 :
A commuter ticket on the Amtrak train between New York and Philadelphia is $1,242.00 per month. It'd have to be a heck of a job. Normally people who work in Philadelphia live in the city or in nearby parts of Pennsylvania, New Jersey, or Delaware.
