PR more expensive than NY?

Oh, sorry. The links are maps of summarized economic survey data for Puerto Rico and New York, respectively. The maps show yellow areas where living (and transportation) expenses are below a certain threshhold percentage of median household income and blue areas where they are above. In summary, although NY is more expensive, the better economic opportunities and commuting infrastructure more than compensate.

It was interesting to me because often people look at the lower total expenses in PR without considering the even lower income opportunities. It's expenses RELATIVE to income that one should consider.
