its one reason I've been jobhunting in Manhattan.

I personally think New York is likely the best city to live in for the coming fuel crunch. Its already dense enough.

At least in Manhattan, the encouragement to have a car is tempered by the difficulty finding a parking place :)

--The one problem with this is that when the economy gets a cold, NYC tends to get the flu,so to speak, because finance is really the foundation of the economy. When Wall ST. starts laying off, the RE market tanks, so on and so forth. About every 15 yrs the housing market here seems to collapse. the last time was in the early 90's, so we are basically due (and the layoffs are starting on WS) If you do move here, DON'T BUY. Rent something for the time being and I guarantee they will be giving stuff away within a couple years. There is a ton of building going on right into the teeth of this thing . perfect storm.
