Things to know when visiting New York

New York corporate housing is plentiful and when staying with SilverDoor your trip couldn’t be easier. However, it’s best to familiarise yourself with New York State’s culture and lifestyle before arrival so that your trip goes off without a hitch.

Two New Yorks – New York is politically divided, with ‘upstate’ New York typically being home to conservatives and New York City and other southern areas typically leaning left. You’re more than likely, therefore, to find a mix of political opinions during your stay.

Towering taxes – If you’re thinking of relocating to New York, be aware that property taxes are notoriously high. While they are somewhat lower in New York City, upstate property taxes are much higher – so be prepared! Having said that, property prices outside NYC are much lower generally that you might expect.

Continental climate – New York State, broadly speaking, has a humid continental climate. While this can result in colder winters, south-eastern areas including NYC experience a warmer climate zone – meaning fewer freezing temperatures. Thunderstorms can also be common in the state with weather systems travelling across the area from Canada and the Great Lakes. Snow is common in winter, even in NYC, so be sure to take appropriate clothing.
