Worth it to move to cities in NY like Poughkeepsie?

[CarmelBarbie]

i hate Phoenix and I’m tired of living here

I was talking to a NY nikka and he said it’s affordable

I’m tired of AZ and I want to be back around Black women

Phoenix has too small of a Black population

It just sucks man

I mean, if you want to move out there you can--I'm just saying, if you want a larger black population, decent weather, and affordability, your better off looking at the south IMO.

If you gonna move to upstate ny (or at least in the Hudson Valley), go to Beacon.

Good pizza restaurants. A couple dancehall spots. Semi friendly people (for NY).
Nothing much else. Suburbian nerds and zombies. My in-laws are out there. Nice house but taxes are high as fukk.

I was born and raised in Poughkeepsie. Me and my girl moved out of there right after I got my bachelors. There is absolutely no reason to move to Poughkeepsie. There are black people but there's no jobs, no night life, nothing to do for fun at all really. And because commuters from NYC live there/buy property the rent is waaayy higher than it needs to be. Buffalo and Rochester are better if you really want to live in upstate NY.

I like the Hudson Valley, but then again I like nature and space so..

Rockland county is my go to surbub if I ever got rich..

Also, don't live in Newbough

How affordable are you thinking?
Or to be more specific, how much would you want to pay for one-month of rent for a one-bedroom apartment?

I lived in Poughkeepsie. For the size of town it is, it's not cheaper than Syracuse, Rochester or Buffalo. It has to do with its proximity to NYC. But, you should do your research before moving. There's a huge IBM headquarters so there's a lot of IBM money in the area. To note, anytime you want to live close to NYC, the rent and cost of living goes up.

imo, Buffalo, Rochester or Syracuse would be 10x better to live in than Pouhkeepsie, Newburgh, Kingston, et. al.

despite those places proximity to NY. Cuse, and to a larger degree Buffalo and Rochester, are on a huge upswing and theres a good amount of stuff going on. great place to start a biz, great place to buy property.

moving from AZ is going to be a huge culture shock and a huge slap in the face regarding weather

OP should consider Philly, for real

Only move there if you like CAC degenerates and busted looking black folk that don't work out. Those areas are always the most dangerous to inhabit because of poverty and ignorance.

Last time I visited there was like 2 yrs ago. So its really that shytty?
Not even places to have fun there?
