Getting more expensive to live here

-
9/5/2006
Ocala is a beautiful city in the heart of Florida. It was a great bargain to live here in 2001 when we moved here, but although we have done well with the equity in our home--we have seen a more than 200% increase--the salaries are generally low, and the cost to live here rising daily. I recently returned from NYC, which is known for the expensive cost of living; however, the cabs, subway, dining out, and entertainment discounts were far better than what we are experiencing in Central Florida right now! Our weather is great for 5 of 12 months of the year, but that is so in most states of our country!
Thanks for your site!
