EXPENSIVE BROOKLYN! Boro ranks #2 in all of USA
Brooklyn is the second most expensive place to live in the entire country — topped only by Manhattan — according to a just-released report.
It’s not the pricey grilled cheese sandwiches ($11 for one with truffle butter and duck fat) or artisinal mayonnaise — it’s all housing, according to the Washington-based Council for Community and Economic Research.
Just behind Brooklyn: Honolulu, San Francisco, San Jose, Queens, and Stamford Connecticut.
The group’s evaluation is based on the cost of people who enjoy “a professional-managerial standard of living.”
