That's ludicrous, the price of real estate has absolutely nothing to
do with the pay rate for house cleaning. I can assure you the price
of real estate in NY is substantially higher than in MI... why would
anyone want to move to MI anyway, there's nothing there but a lot of
desolate nothingness... I wouldn't live in MI if someone gave me a
house for free including a house cleaner... she'd need to have the
most magnificent mammaries to attract me to live in that wilderness.
