Why live in New York?

Don't get me wrong New York is awesome as a visitor/tourist, but I just can not fathom the possibility of living there as a permanent resident. For what you pay in housing/apartments in New York you can buy/finance a nice mansion any where else! $20 million in New York might buy you a nice top floor penthouse but if you put that $20 million in another state you might buy yourself a 8-10 acre piece of land AND have money left over to build your dream home + buy yourself a nice car. Additionally the food there is simply outrageous and god forbid if you smoke cigarettes. The food was good but for the price I could have bought dinner for 4 people at a nice upscale restaurant somewhere else and when my BF was buying cigarettes I saw that he was paying $15 dollars for one PACK, omg!
The people are nice for the most part but driving is a different story lol. Some people were soo aggressive and parallel parking was not fun.
People in New York, why do you live in such an expensive state? Why not move to the Hamptons or something?

As for NYC, I love the city but I dislike how expensive it is. The idea of a city income tax annoys me.
