That's because New York and New Jersey objectively suck, so it wouldn't make sense to complain when people point out this fact.

California, however, is objectively the best state, so obviously it makes sense that Californians would complain when non-Californians criticize it.

Well, those who can't make it to the vastly superior beaches of California.

New York (State) has affordable housing and enough water.

New York state is $100,000 above the national average.

Also, it's weird for you all to get so worked up about our water problems. I'm sure the people in Flint wished you cared this much about them. Or Jackson, Mississippi.

Well, I guess 'care' is not the appropriate word since you don't seem to actually give a shit but instead want to celebrate the challenges of others for some weird fucking reason.

New York City metro area is wildly expensive, and it skews all the statewide statistics. The rest of the state is very affordable. It's totally normal to find houses upstate for $50,000 to $100,000.

There is a reason I clarified New York State, not just "New York," because upstate is totally different from NYC metro area.

People who think NYC should be its own state... I'm not sure if I agree, but I understand where they get that thought.

And you're taking my post way more personally than how I meant it. I wasn't going to even rag on Cali if nobody talked trash about NY.

Long Island should be its own state.

Yeah, there's a reason I specified New York State, too. But you do you. And you joined the chorus, homie. I'm not going to spend a bunch of time trying to sort out your level of commitment to the Two Minute California hate just because you might get sensitive after taking your shots.

When you buy a house, you pay for the one you bought, not whatever is the statistical average for the state. New York has a plentiful supply of affordable housing.

Might make a fella think that they aren't fleeing those policies at all.
