Just wanted to point out that in most areas of Westchester county you couldn't get a tear down shack for $300K. The cost of housing there is astronomical.
I'm sure Hence the amazing salaries

Clearly I need to move to Westchester County, NY!!!!!!! DH has been teaching for 10 years, and is about 1/2 way to his Master's degree (which we pay for as the school has no tuition reimbursement program) and makes 48K a year.
Here in IN, DH has 25 years experience, with a master's degree plus additional hours (which we paid for), and makes $58K. Of course our cost-of-living is lower than in Westchester County. You could buy a decent 1800 square foot ranch on 1/2 acre, with attached garage, for under $100K. Plus our property taxes, on the above home, are about $500 a year. Yeah, you read that right.
