Moving to a new city can feel overwhelming. Using our knowledge and firsthand experience of moving from Philadelphia to Manhattan, we’ve created a list of some key differences between the two cities.
- Home Prices: Despite being most popularly known for its towering skyscrapers, stunning attractions, and diverse culture, Manhattan is also known for its expensive real estate. According to one source, the average home cost in Manhattan is roughly three to five times more expensive than the average home cost in Philadelphia.
- Cost of Living: When it comes to the cost of living, the cost of living in Manhattan is approximately 35% higher than living in Philadelphia, making it one of the most expensive cities to live in the United States.
- Income: In Philadelphia, the approximate median income stands at $37,460, whereas in Manhattan, it reaches $71,656. As for unemployment, Philadelphia experiences a slightly higher rate of 10.6%, while Manhattan’s unemployment rate is lower at 8.6%.
