Where are you paying $4500? Does that include full day? food? etc?

Eitz Chaim. Full day (9-3). Although in the winter half the day is spent putting on and taking off outdoor gear

. No food.

I just started. It is ridiculous. And Brooklyn is supposed to be on the cheaper side.

Cleveland, nursery, $4,150 with lunch included from 9am-2pm. (9am-4pm is available for $5,420).
OH also gives vouchers for free tuition for low-income families.

Washington heights, boys and girls, nursery: $11,500+
Toronto, boys and girls, nursery and kindergarten, $4,500+
Toronto, boys and girls, chabad nursery, $4,000

Oh, I forgot to mention. I get a tax receipt (legitimately) for almost all of my tuition in Toronto

Why aren't more people moving there for this reason?
I know a few guys in Cincinnati, and this is the sale that was made to them.

I don't have actual numbers but you should see what your neighbors in Quebec pay...

Not sure what you mean? More? Less? Who would move to Quebec anyways?

A lot less. If I remember correctly the price for nursery is $7 a day.

As to your last question, beats me...

The government. Which is why taxes in QC are through the roof (amongst other reasons)..

If we could just get the yeshivas in NY to charge $7 a day as taxes are already through the roof.

Now I mean seriously through the roof. Like more than half your paycheck and IIRC a 16% sales tax...

(of course if you're poor you'll get it all back in a variety of ways...)

By poor I meant not rich. If you have more than a certain amount of children it doesn't pay for you to go to work anymore...

AFAIK, NY is actually somewhere in the middle. I have been told (possibly incorrectly) that there are smaller cities that are much more expensive and some, like Clevland, are much cheaper.

I believe that Darchei charges somewhere like $13,000.
