Getting started in a new city is never easy, especially if you don't
have enough money to pay for future expenses, but it is possible with good
advice and good planning.
What you should keep in mind when reviewing budgets is:
Is buying preferable to renting?
Buying a home is a big financial commitment that cannot be taken on
impulse. Emotions aside, if you are not financially ready, you should continue
to rent until you are in a stronger position.

Taxes
When we talk about taxes in the United States, we have to distinguish different
administrative levels. First of all, there are federal taxes that are the same
all over the country. Then, each state establishes its taxes. And finally, the
counties and cities charge some taxes as well.
That's not counting things like health services, education, food,
clothing, and services like electricity, water, and telephone.
