As a bike rider, I forget this is a thing. Asked my neighbor, he pays $350/month in insurance alone 🙃

This was the best thing about living in New York. No need for a car. No expenses paid in car payments, gas, or insurance. People claim that New York City is expensive, and rents are certainly higher than most places, but you end up saving so much money just on the cost of owning a car alone. Overall, the cost of living for me was much cheaper in New York City than it is now in Orlando.
I wish I had the resources to go back.
I live in a major city with decent (not excellent, just decent) transportation.
Yokels from small towns talk about how "expensive" it is until I ask them how much they pay for rent and food. And it always surprises them theyre paying the same damn amount thanks to inflation.
Eh... Used to live in the city in a 500 sq ft condo built in '75 and similar units would be rented for the same price I'm paying to rent a 900sq ft apartment built in 2014 in a small town with all services one could need... Bonus, I don't need my car to do the groceries because it's 2 minutes door to door from where I live now compared to 5 minutes in my car when I was at the condo.
