cost of living

Living in New York is expensive, but these 5 counties top the list.

Even after the multi-billion dollar investment announcement that came to Utica and Central New York in 2015, New York has been declared one of the worst states to make a living in today.

WASHINGTON (AP) — For just the third time in 40 years, millions of Social Security recipients, disabled veterans and federal retirees can expect no increase in benefits next year.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Millions of older Americans who rely on government benefits are about to find out how much their monthly payments will increase next year.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Higher food and gas costs pushed up U.S. consumer prices in April by the most in 10 months, evidence that inflation is ticking up from very low levels.

The old saying “If you can make it here, you can make it anywhere” may not fit New York anymore.
