New York, New York
The cost of housing in New York depends greatly on the area you choose. The most expensive options are offered in Manhattan and Queens, the most budget ones are in the Bronx.

Although the building in which this property is located was built in 1960, its elevators have been completely renovated. There is a shopping center next to the house.
Miami, FL
The real estate market in Miami shows growth, because both Americans and foreigners dream of housing by the ocean. Especially actively acquire property from Brazil, Argentina, Canada, Russia, France, Italy, England and Germany. The Miami Association of Realtors says that Russians and Ukrainians occupy one of the six first places among those who are interested in apartments in a sunny city. Probably, therefore, for 300 thousands in Miami, you can buy a very mediocre version.

Boston, Massachusetts
If you want to buy housing in Boston, you should know that in this city are some of the oldest houses in the United States. Most of the houses were built before the Second World War.

San Francisco, California
The headquarters of the richest companies in America are located in small San Francisco, and a significant percentage of San Francisco residents are IT workers with corresponding salaries.
