Now Repeat after me:
The food is less expensive than up north.
The weather is better than up north.
The traffic is better than up north.
The state tax rate is better than up north.
The crime rate is better than up north.

WE ALL HAVE MORE TIME TO COMPLAIN THAN WHEN WE WERE WORKING UP NORTH AND THAT IS THE REASON FOR SOME FOLKS GRUMPINESS.

Get involved and you will have less time to worry and complain.

I guess it depends on where you come from. Food is more expensive here than upstate NY; traffic is greater here than upstate ny; crime rate is about the same. I agree the taxes are less here. Of course we have much less land too.
