RayFinkle Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 Yeah, I'm sure all those million-dollar houses in New York are just completely sucking up WNY's tax dollars, not the other way around..... JDG 655431[/snapback] LOL! Million dollar homes??? Have you ever lived in the city? It is an immigrant, welfare, public assistance nightmare. You don't live in a house, you live in a crappy over priced apartment. One city block in New York equals the popluation of Niagara Falls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDG Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 Property taxes are local, smartass 655436[/snapback] And the people who have incomes to buy million dollar homes on Long Island obviously aren't paying any income tax..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFan Trapped in Pats Land Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 And the people who have incomes to buy million dollar homes on Long Island obviously aren't paying any income tax..... 655445[/snapback] If you're paying a mortgage the interest is deductible. So, for New York state higher property values are not always a great thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't live in a house, you live in a crappy over priced apartment. 655438[/snapback] As opposed to Buffalo? Does Buffalo have anything remotely similar to Central Park West or the Village? Median Household Income: Buffalo City: $28,500 Buffalo MSA: $41,200 New York City: $41,500 New York MSA: $44,800 Mean Household Income: Buffalo City: $38,500 Buffalo MSA: $53,100 New York City: $62,813 New York MSA: $68,500 So, New York may have more poor people than Buffalo does, but they also have a lot more rich people too.... JDG Buffalo MSA = Erie and Niagara Counties New York MSA = Manhattan, Bronx, Queens, Kings, Putnam, Rockland, Richland, and Westchester Counties Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5 Wide Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 It's not fair to pit NYC statistics vs Buffalo statistics, they're two completely different situations all together. Yes NYC is by far the more prosperous bigger brother than Buffalo, and yes it generates exponentially more tax dollars than does Western New York, and the fact that this is even being debated is lunacy. But to say that Buffalo is not entitled to tax dollars that may have been generated in other portions of the state is also lunacy. Capital improvement projects to the NYS thruway across the State have been funded by moneys collected on the I-190 in and out of Buffalo, it's the nature of the beast. To say that Buffalo deserves no economic boost for the Bills, which is a tremendous player in determining the areas total quality of life is misguided. Seeing how JDG is in Maryland, how did you feel about the State legislature pouring millions of dollars into the Baltimore Inner Harbor and how the outlying counties felt about the funds being used to rejuvenate a once dying city.
